The thing about World War 1 is that it was inevitable in the sense the grand alliance scheme demanded total conflict. The sphere of influence approach to peace and balancing powera militarily itself provoked worldwide conflict. Most of World War 1 was a detached elite refusing to recognize reality as they sent wave after wave of people into machinegun fire.
By the time you’re going back to the root of it all you find yourself stabbing Caesar along with the rest of the time travellers.
I have always seen him as an absolute unapologetic grifter in it for the love of the game.
Asmongold fan by typo is a cursed reality of our time.
So the thing about Evangelion…
Isn’t the whole thing with expats is that they explicitly keep their US citizenship? Most the self described expats I know are overseas military that married a local so my perspective may be skewed here.
OP just downvoted my post history. Anonymous or not, I now know that happened, and that’s hilarious to me.
This community is pretty much singlehanded trashed by this user who nukes everything constantly.
Bombskip unless you sequence break for the doublejump before the Inquisition. Otherwise you just have to get the key the normal route after the Reconquista.
They’re not a bot, just a user extremely dedicated to breaking up the Threadiverse over the political comments the Lemmy devs have made.
I was finally finishing my degree after dragging it out a couple extra years because I could afford night classes without taking loans.

Stay federated and up prayed.
If it is chronic those flowers and cards dry up quick. Also the medical care and attention beyond hucking out pills. Which brings us to panel 2…
I wouldn’t use the word ‘delusion’ then. Delusions are predicated on defying incontrovertible proof of falsehood.
They are a defense mechanism. The desire to be deluded is a fear response. Knowing you’re dealing with fear is one thing, but I think this has to be treated more like addiction intervention than some kind of puppet mastery.
Right, and this is Lemmy. I am not sure this is exactly the facebook browsing demographic.
people who have a vision, even if delusional, for a better America.
Knowing the perspective of american liberals is perfectly fine and normal, but that’s not a call to cater to delusion. Delusional visions are not helping.
Probably in this context: the ruling class.
The lack of class awareness here in the comic being why the use of cultural hegemony is lost.
There are multiple victims of war pictured here and the comic doesn’t seem to notice or care why that is. It celebrates it even, as empathy, which is such a crushing example of how warped perspectives can become.
What distro is represented by the Tux of the Deep there? Just lurking beneath the waves?
That sign has a Z and letters with accent mark over it.
So I think this a picture of communism?
I get you, but I mean the grand alliance scheme to be including what ultimately became the Quadruple Alliance/Central Powers. The Kaiser’s bellicose disposition is noteworthy but doesn’t mean he wasn’t strategizing around the Entente any less.
