>>737046794
Ross is talking right now
>>737046849second for first being a faggot
UK cuck here how do I become European again?
>>737046932marry moi
total corpo death
>>737046849
>>737046794NOOOOOOO EU SHOULD NOT FORCE ME TO LET PLAYERS HAVE DEDICATED SERVERS. I AM SUPPOSED TO MAKE OLD GAMES UNPLAYABLE BECAUSE OTHERWISE THEY WONT BUY OUR NEW SLOP WRITTEN BY VIBECODING POOPEATERS AND FILLED WITH BLACKS AND TRANNIES.SHUT IT DOWN SHUUUT IT DOOOWN
>>737046794Actually SKG won't work because I'm illiterate
Who fucking cares>WAHHHH KEEP MY TOY ONLINE FOREVER
>communist drivelFuck off already.
>>737047028>if good for consumer, communismStop trying to make people into communists, when your opponents tried to make everything reasonable into fascism it didn't work out for them.
>communist gemStay and prosper.
>dedicated servers in 2026?>INCONCEIVABLE!
I can't wait for this to actually come to fruition and in a few years have amerisharts go>actually companies totally would have done that on their own, the EU did nothing!
Rate Ross's look
There is something funny how SKG haters used to scream that nobody would take the initiative seriously but now that EU goverments are seriously considering the fact that game companies can take away products people legally paid for the only "argument" haters have is fear mongering and being clueless about how the EU works or what it's like to actually have your consumer rights enforced.
>>737047028
>>737047082Enjoy having all online games immediately die because normalfags prefer matchmaking
If something fruitful actually comes out of this whole thing, I'll apologise to the EU for doubting them.>>73704709610/10 would play racing games with
>>737047096Optimal.
>>737047104I wish we could have UK consumer protections without all the other dystopian shit that comes with the UK.>>737047139>A world without normalfags fucking up my lobbiesYou don't have to sell me on the idea, I was already onboard.
>>737047139normalfags are told what to like, don't be retarded
>>737047121>>737047076>>737047072>Government overreach is BASED!!!Don't you faggots realise that these are a slippery slope that will lead to authoratarianism, like how you lost all your gun rights?
>>737047104We are still a long way from new rules to be written.The EU moves painfully slow. By the time they'll outline the plan against planned obsolescence in games the next US president will be worrying about midterms.
>>737047221You are literally a normalfag for playing always-online games in the first place retard
>>737046932afaik your country is working with the EU to be reintroduced.
>>737047252>government doing literally anything is overreachCopyright is government overreach but I bet you defend that if you defend companies being able to shut down fan servers.
>>737047217This meme sounds like it was written by Abathur from starcraft 2.
Could USA / Trump going nuts and causing so much drama / destruction. Make EU less scared of USA's threats . If they threaten SKG
One mold man is taking on the biggest entertainment industry in the world.
>>737047221>UK consumer protectionsThe same SKG petition reached UK parliament and they laughed it out. UK is a joke.
>>737047259I don't though, whats your next strawman?
>UK hearing>who cares, not an issue, we won't change anything>EU hearing>the exact opposite
>>737047297If they come up with good way to save games. But USA companies not agreeing with them
>>737047309I would have preferred if he finished FM2 but that's never happening, virtue signalling about pointless shit is more important
>>737047332Apologies I get UK and EU confused as any average american would because they're the same thing.
>>737047252>talking about government overreach>from the country getting raped by corporations, its government AND Israel on a daily basis
>>737047096He looks less bald than usual.
>>737047334>I don't play live service games but I care about SKGThen you're by definition a slacktivist. You aren't affected by the outcome of this initiative, you just want to feel a part of some grand "movement"
>>737047104anon these aren't haters iin the strict sense, they're paid corporate shills. they know EXACTLY what skg is about, they simply choose to lie about it
Why do so many Americans recoil at the idea of having consumer rights?
This is pathetic, a manchild went to congress just to defend his electronic toys?
>>737047427> You aren't affected by the outcome of this initiativeI am.If live service slop stops being made in favor of single player, localhost, or lobbies, then i'll have more games to play.
>>737047290Regulations kill economies. US economy was in the gutter in the 70's under union tyranny until Reagon fixed itWhy is this so hard to understand?
>>737047478Do you not realize that the core of conservative ideology is less govt intervention?
>>737047427The industry keeps telling me that this will kill all live service games and also possibly murder the publishers in cold blood, so I believe them. This sounds good.
>>737047479Yes. And manchildren in the parliament agreed with him, citing a community effort to revive Mount & Blade: Napoleonic Wars
>>737047252There's a balance between government overreach and re-evaluating market politics.There were a ton of them created just in the 90s and 2000s that you don't know about because all you do is wax nostalgia about games you played as a child. In reality, developers back then already had to deal with the EU and US market conditions. Literally all japanese games would've had naked women and bukkakes in them if there weren't rules against age ratings and content and decent market publicity back then.I know what you're thinking. "Buh-buh-buh-buh-BASED--!" but no. Think about it...........Just think about it for two god damn seconds, son.Do you wanna scroll down the Steam store, PSN or your local Gamestop and see nothing but sperm clots and tits on game covers? Because that's what the market would look like, if it actually had zero regulation.
>>737047481>If Highguard had dedicated servers I would have played it!! Promise!!Uh-huh, sure.
>>737047427>you shouldn't work on something that doesn't directly affect you>even if it indirectly affect youThe US being a shithole suddenly make sense.
>>737047525So the core of conservative ideology is fewer rights? Have you burned the constitution yet and given up your guns?
>>737047593cool but whom are you quoting?
>>737046858>>737047337EUChads, I wasn't familiar with your game
>>737047562>What is the Invisible Hand
>>737046932marry this anon >>737046960
>>737047593Wasn't expecting THAT strawman i'll be honest, but it might have lasted longer and made more money rather than shutting down in a week to make 0 dollars forever in the future.
>>737047478Those subhumans are mind hacked to follow their corpo overlords
>>737047479>>737047028>>737047012Shut up. Be quiet
>>737046932i'm glad the UK is not part of the EU. all the mass surveillance bullshit would have passed if the UK was still an EU member state.
>>737047605>making discourse impossible
>>737047545>this will kill all live service games and also possibly murder the publishers in cold bloodPlease let this be true
>>737047630You literally said that if live service slop had those features you would play them. Now you're backpedaling because the "wrong" game was brought up. Curious!
>>737047729Misfired bro, I said i'd have more games to play not all the games.
>>737047729>You literally said that if live service slop had those features you would play them>"If live service slop stops being made in favor of..."
>>737047725Rights are granted by the government, anon. Unless God almighty starts striking down people during crimes in progress, the state is who decides what rights you have.
Ross is fumbling hard. Tripping over his words and laughing at himself. Very sad but not unexpected.
>>737046794Manchildren really be asking mommy government to let them pirate toys LOL.
>>737046794>your petition will never get enough votes!>Nobody cares about these old games! Stop making a fuss!>They wont even bother with your petition!>These old boomers in charge dont know or care about your silly toys! Grow up!>Your demands are too unreasonable and expensive! It will be rejected!>It's pointless! Give up! You wont win!>YOU CANT HOPE TO DEFEAT CORPORATIONS!!!>The entire room agrees with SKG during the hearing >everyone there has either played or has friends and family that paid for and plays videogamesSo what's their newest corporate sponsored doomnigger narrative?
>>737047824Ross away from his Game Dungeon. Ross not in his element currently
>>737047846So everyone who doesn't want even more of a nanny welfare state is a corporate bootlicker?
they're 100% going to force some gay age verification shit and some way to track users aren't theythis is the perfect trojan horse
>>737047252It's transparent you have no idea what you're talking about. Joining the EU was a mistake for many countries but being able to leverage its power via democratic processes like this is a silver lining.
>>737047252Gov does something I like = GoodWhy don't Americans understand this simple concept?Why even have a government if you don't want them to ever do anything?
NOOOO!CURSE YOU ENTITLED EUROPEAN GAMERS!YOUR GREED IS KILLING INNOCENT BILLION DOLLARS COMPANIES!UBISOFT IS DYING BECAUSE OF YOU!
>>73704679499 PROBLEMS AND A GAME AINT ONE.
>>737047891I didn't know basic consumer protections are "Nanny welfare state" shit. You're right, we should stop checking food storage facilities for mold, and we need to stop all these faggoty "Air quality" standards. A real man drinks his smog.
>>737047891no but you are
>>737047936>UBISOFT IS DYING BECAUSE OF YOU!
>>737047936>UBISOFT IS DYING BECAUSE OF YOU!WOOT!
>>737047918They're calling it the most liberal statement ever uttered
>>737047012>>737047479>>737047827>T.
>>737047891So private corporations fucking you in the ass is fine but you saying "no" is going too far?
>>737047891>nanny welfare stateI don't know how you get any of that from letting people keep the games they purchased
>>737047901https://github.com/eu-digital-identity-wallet/av-app-android-wallet-ui
>>737047936i already signed the initiative, you don't have to convince me any further
>>737047936Good.Rape Bungie.
>>737047891yes removal of planned obsolescence is bootlicking. letting daddy corporation produce shitty, temporary products and giving tax dollar bailouts when those practices fail is true freedom
>>737048009I only play single-player games sold as is and I ignore everything else. In a perfect world so would everyone else. You are the market, your actions affect it.
>>737048107No, everyone is the market. I am going to use outsized political influence to bend the market to my will, against the actions of my retarded peers.
i signeded (⸝⸝⸝• ω •⸝⸝⸝)
>>737048107>the free market will regulate itselflemao
American dogs barking on cue again
>>737047478Because the far left in america is unhinged, stupid and extremely dogmatic. Their proposal would be something like:>american stop killing games act>now companies just have to tell you that you dont own the game>AND makes it so you have to register your state ID with the company before purchasing>AND includes a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens>AND codifies new taxes on the middle class>AND gives $200 billion in assets to isreal>AND gives $250 million in assets to ukraineAnd if anyone refuses to pass it they will shut down our government for 4 months, skip the original purpose and just demand that illegals should be allowed to vote (for them). All their proposals are always vague bullshit like "help americans act" that exclusively harms americans. Its like the free Congo state. The american far left DNC is badically operating like Leopold, trying to get free/cheap labor.
>>737048164this.5 years ago i watched 'the market' invent their own ideas of what safety requires and the phsyically assaulting old ladies for not following those rules. the people running the show focused on that market of hysterical yet hypocritical fuckwit.
>>737048185>No you see, companies don't want to be greedy and cut corners, but the government force them to be!
dalit + low izzat
>>737048280being greedy and cutting corners is bad and will always happen. the government giving companies bailouts after their greed and corner cutting pulls the rug out from under them is worse.
>>737048340Maybe we should make it so that the corner cutting is illegal to begin with.
Americans when gov gives a citizen healthcare or educationThis is commie shit! :(American when gov bails out a big bank or corporationTHIS US TRUE AMERICAN FREEDOM BABY WOOHOO FREE MARKET! :D
>>737048107>You are the market, your actions affect it.My only actions are>YAY: spend money to support shitty practices>ABSTAIN: dont spend money and not be counted as part of the audienceTher is no NAY option available anywhere. The "vote with your wallet" faggots always leave that part out.
>>737048280the fuck are you trying to say here you mongoloid? speak clearly
>>737047363>virtue signalling about pointless shitLiterally how is any of this a virtue signal? Ross is very passionate about this and clearly threw everything he had into getting this far. This is the literal opposite of a virtue signal.
>>737048376absolutely. for example, let's make it illegal to sell things, and them make them stop working. that will encourage companies to sell fully working products.
>>737048381You don't get it, they could be a CEO one day if they work very hard for Shekelstein, they can't have regulation now, this could hit on their future profits!>>737048392I'm mocking retards who think regulations against corporations are the problem, and often believe in fucking trickle down economics.
can't wait for this to come into effect in about 3 years and ALL GAMES that currently exist and also games that will come out in the next 3 years be exempt from it so they can still be killed lmao
>>737047096gold star for trying
>>737048446Yeah that sounds good. Operative on "Making" them stop working. Forced obsolescence is shit, glad we can agree.
>>737048504>I'm mocking retards who think regulations against corporations are the problem, and often believe in fucking trickle down economics.understandable anon, have a good day
>>737047089i hope the developers do the same shit that say, apple does with their phones, where the EU regulates that they can't fuck the consumer over in a certain way and so they make a special exception for europeans only while continuing to buttfuck americans without lube.
>>737048546better late than never
>europe is literally on the brink of destruction and the irish are doing braveheart tier motivational speeches>and then there are these nerdsbased nerds saving genshin from going EOS
>>737046794Which youtuber will I have to watch to get the highlights
incredibly based
>>737047252It's not overreach when people are literally going hey government please reach here. I'm not saying the final product can't have some form of overreach and you can gloat then but currently this is something the EU citizens went out of their way to ask for.
>>737048546Which is still better than the current situation, which is that corporations are allowed to kill off any game released now and in the indefinite future.You people are so fucking retarded, holy shit.
>>737047252When did we lose our gun rights again? You can own a handgun or hunting weapon here if you have a loicence.
>>737047525That core rotted the instant conservatives started favouring industry lobbies and getting into bed with multibilionaries.Now "government intervention" is only a problem when it's about favouring the customer, if it's financing private industries with public funds or manipulating the stock market to make investors happy then it's all good.
>>737048601Have you actually visited an european country? (beside the UK)
>>737047819>Rights are granted by the government, anon. Unless God almighty starts striking down people during crimes in progress, the state is who decides what rights you have.That's where you are wrong. Read Douglas Wilson. Local communities centered around a Church should govern themselves, not some libtard nanny state.Nigth watchman state
Vieira what a cutie AAAAAHHH
>>737047012That "toy" is the most profitable entertainment category of all time in the history of humanity.
tldr the eu boomers agreemore discussions laterwill probably get passedgame companies cant just eos games unless they have a offline plan

>>737048446>politicans want our lives to improve!>they will give us rules that do that!Wrong! They want to be reelected. How does this lead to them getting relected?? If it doesn't it most likely wont pass or it will be heavily re-tooled to give their donors more control or capital. The DNC is backed by insurance, banks, and media (including software groups). Good luck getting the most curropt Americans to turn on their donors. They protect fraud racketts. They could not care less if their friends rip you off, as long as theyre reelected. Welcome to u.s politics.

>>737048864Let's all remember the games who had forced online or always online features>mfw thinking about my inventory not being available in HITMAN because it couldn't connect to the server due to maintenance>or when I'm rudely being interrupted every 5 minutes by a message telling me I lost/regained connection to the serverIT'S SO UNFAIR! WHY? WHY WOULD THE EU TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME?!
>>737047525That’s not conservative ideology. If you’re trying to conserve the sentiments of the founders of the country, then you would believe in social contract theory, where the populace yields up some freedoms and control to the government in exchange for the government protecting their rights.That’s literally what the US federal constitution is. The articles are we the people giving the government certain rights and powers. The bill of rights is the government giving we the people certain rights and powers.Conservatism isn’t anti-government intervention. You’re describing conservatardism, aka a Potemkin ideology cooked up by corporations to convince people liberal, democratic, capitalist societies operating as intended is socialism (it isn’t)

>45 year old autistic man saves gaming
I only care about this as it probably means publishers will stop making online games as its too much legal hassle to deal with so they will make more single player games instead.
>>737049234Democratic socialism is the most retarded ideology ever conceived. It’s literally just highly altruistic liberal capitalism that has been falsely accused for so long of being communist that its practitioners just gave up and said “sure, fuck it, we’re communists I guess.”Just another example of corporate conservatardism poisoning all discourse by using rote repetition in propaganda to make words mean something they don’t mean.

>>737049025The problem is inherently with needing to work around Patent and Copyright law, both European and international variants.IP law in general is highly corrupt, shortsighted, draconian and inflexible, being mostly composed of an increasing number of ad hoc additions and extensions to obsolete laws.>>737049440The UK can't stop ruining Europe even after they left the EU.

>>737049069World of Warcraft.After an undisclosed length of time, the publisher disables the game I payed money for, which was a MMOrpg made for straight mentally healthy individuals, without the in-game currency being sold for real money, without the in-game items being sold for real money. This game is no longer exists and the publisher is actively destroying every attempt to resurrect the original game (Nostalrius).

>>737048546More like 10 years, government action is incredibly slow. Anyway, I'm pretty sure they already said that SKG would only affect games released after it goes into effect, so developers get a decade to prepare for it. Or to find a legal loophole.

Ross Scott voice of Freeman's Mind saving videogames with SKG (He started) team. What a timeline
Does it concern games with multiplayer portions not working due to server shut downs too? Or purely multislop?
>>737051073if the game works offline then it works
I sent ross a really long email to recommend him Xenoblade X and he actually responded Imagine a game dungeon episode of X
Europe regulates, and the USA obeys
Why do I want SKG to fail? I love watching slop like Concord getting put down.

We really should send in Navy SEALs to arrest the pope, that way Yuros would know their place and he seems to be subversed by the left anyways
>>737051173The unfortunate truth is that for good shit that you like to be able to be played forever, so does the slop.
>>737051173So you want Concord to be a fading memory so that a company in the future can try again and potentially succeed, shitting up gaming even further?See that's the nice thing about having games still be playable: The shame of its failure will never go away.

>>737050427Ah, I see now.Yeah, it's going to take a long while the Comission gets to a decision, but I do believe there will be an action to this matter.Thanks.
>>737047252If you want to talk about slippery slopes, how about the slope that’s leading to game companies being able to kill any game, live service or not, single or multiplayer, by mandating online connections?Any argument you can make about government overreach can also be made about developer overreach, except there is direct precedent for game developers consistently trying to fuck over the consumer at every angle while the government has made both pro consumer and pro business decisions alike,
>>737047139>Enjoy having all online games immediately die because normalfags prefer matchmakingthey are not mututally exclusve. games can have both offiical servers that are matchmade and a lobby browser. tf2 does this for example.
>>737051860So does aoe2
>>737051173>>737051219>>737051309If SKG gets what they want implemented, nothing would really change about GaaS besides the games still being playable via player hosted servers or p2p after they shut down and maybe the game still being purchaseable. For example, look at EVOLVE. You can still play the game offline and online via private p2p lobbies.
>>737050425>>737050485never fucking happened, 10,000 troops are going to be deployed and a blockade we set up is already letting ships through, cope all you want but we wont this ran shit in the end, and then Europe will be cucked when we control their oil
>>737051532>I DON'T LIKE THEM PUTTING CHEMICALS IN THE SERVER THAT TURN THE FRIGGIN GAMES OFF

>>737051983by showing we aren't fucking around, they're already doing peace talks, it's over
>>737051897Some things would have to change depending on what the law will cover, but we don't know it all yet. At the end of the day all that matters is the game is still playable, even if it's just for a skeleton player base or game nights.
>>737052009Considering how movement started. This feels surreal
>>737052030>it's oversee you in a few months
Damn that guy he was talking to is a fucking robot

BRING BACK ROSS
>>737052235You bet it will be freaky
Its really not that hard to create an offline version of a game with peer to peer connectivity when the official servers go down.
>>737052263>His purpose fulfilled, Ross instantly transitioned into a purplehaired woman during the 3 minute ad break.

>>737050118Problem with WoW is that its subscription based and not a one time purchase, not even Ross wanted to attack that position in his videos
>>737046990This is the sad part. The only reason corpos are seething is because they plan on degrading future game quality. If they evolved game quality people would still buy the new versions of games even if the older versionsare DRM free. Examples.>The WitcherDRM free and each version of the game was bought by more and more people.>Divinity:Original SinDRM free and each version of the game was bought by more and more people.Seriously. Having the older games available and not dead would be an asset and free marketing for the upcoming game IMO(as long as the new game is not a cashgrab). So pretty much anyone seething about StopKillingGames is a corpo that want videogames to get shittier and sloppivied by AI and DEI hires.
holy SHIT the mold won, pirate lost
Holy shit they all agreed SKG literally won.>PirateSoftware cult on suicide watch
>>737052403Americans never understood the difference between being a loudmouthed moron and a confident, strong leader. They never will, either.

>>737052514They're not supposed to have a confident, strong leader. The president is supposed to be an administrator; a nerdy bureaucrat. Someone capable of running a country.
>>737052514Seething, low T, Eurokek
>>737049336That's what they spent all the signatures on
>>737047478I'm not American. I'm Australian. I've seen my government use the exact same justification (protecting consumers) to enact all sorts of draconian and absurd policies.
At what point does false flagging end and mental retardation begin?
>>737052431You faggots promised everyone that Tel Aviv would be leveled. Can we get an ETA on that?
>>737052632It happened a year ago when literal CP was being posted in these threads to get them autodeleted.
I just came home, give me the QRD. Why are people saying we won?
>>737052632It's a line so thin, you can barely say it's there.Pretty funny to watch them collapse into TDS and thirdie shilling because they basically just lost.
>>737052439Piracy, as long as the game is good, is a net positive for the long-term health of the company.>people pirate game 1>like it>talk to other people about it (free marketing)>decide to buy game 2There was an EU study, which showed that video game piracy results in increased sales. Though films, audiobooks, ebooks etc are hurt by piracy.
>>737052684Basically a majority positive response from speakers in the hearing video
>>737052684EU Parliament agreed on the beheading of all the leadership of Ubisoft, it will happen next week.
>>737052592They don't really understand that, either. Ironically, despite founding their country due to government overreach, they yearn for a king and always oppose government overreach but only when such "overreach" would benefit the people. Benefiting the would-be monarch is always a positive.
>>737052439They don't even have to improve the game's quality if they expand by adding new stories, quests etc. Look at expansion packs for example. BroodWar, Blood and Wine, Phantom Liberty etc.>same game but adding more story contentAnd people will buy it. Killing games is a retarded mindset when you could be selling story DLC for your game.

>>737052257>strong leadership>straight up pretending we own the strait and doing a second blockade on top of iran's to show how big our wiener is
>>737052435WoW is much more of a complicated case actually. The original game was sold on CDs with all the game files to run it (I still have the discs), the only thing required to run it is a server running the correct game version. The subscription was paid separate from the game- in other words, I only paid for an ACCOUNT not the game. This goes for the expacs too.
>>737046794Only ever played sigle player games and pirated them. So not really my problem.
>>737050358You consider being ruled by pedos and sending money to more pedos instead to your own population a achivement.Truly, the greatest nation of goys imaginable.Tell us more about coping since you´re obviously a expert on that field.
>>737052757good
>>737052831We had our first blockade, but what about the second blockade?
12 hours?Is there some important part to watch it's all important?
>>737052854>the only thing required to run it is a server running the correct game version.Oh and also a change to realmlist.txtAfter that, the game could run any day. People figured out private servers based on a leaked beta client that they reverse engineered the network traffic from in like 2006 or 7.
>>737052757They didn't even need to vote, all the elected officials just raised their official broadsword aloft while shouting prayers to the Virgin Mary.Powerful stuff, made me glad to be an european.
>>737052857It is your problem by virtue that shit always leaks to the rest of the market, we really don't need always online singleplayer games to become a norm.
>>737046875Shit I never expected to see a few years ago

>>737052981Now that there will be sanctions against Israel, I wonder what we receive from them and what they receive from us?
>>737052989To be fair, Hungary unshackled itself and you only have Orban himself to thank for that.
>>737052981>he doesn't know about the Orban-Israel veto
>>737052989Right wing sweep among politicians and only politicians, seeminglyLots of retards trying to grab power and only finding prison cell bars in their hands, like South Korea's president and Brazil's presidentBrazil! BRAZIL managed to not only root out their previous president but also rooted out all of his buddies in the military planning a coup!

>>737052757>didn't sanction their brutal rape firstThe EU is weak. The message will never go through.
>>737052757Mashallah
How is the EU parliament so smart when it comes to preserving video games but so retarded when it comes to pushing chat control?
>>737053214Brazil and other corrupt South American shitholes do tend to overthrow the previous leader in sudden and bloody revolution, it's noteworthy however that Brazil is one of the countries with leadership who saw Donald Trump completely get away with Jan 6th and thought they want a piece of the pie, then get immediately thwartedEven more noteworthy is simply that Brazil routed everybody responsible, they went completely top to bottom and imprisoned everybody involved with the coup with almost mechanical precision and grace
>>737053162Absolutely not.
>>737047252>corperate overreach is better than government overreachmost media of the last 70 years has been teaching you the dangers of corporate overreach and you're trying to protect it. Why?

>>737053214In short: He fucked up. Adressed none of the country's problems and the people got sick of it. Nothing makes people want democracy like an openly corrupt president that fucks over everything.
>>737049258On 1 good idea ,like Universal USB-C, eu Does like 5 diffrent retarded thing that make you wish to burn that Tower of Babel they have in Brussels.Like Climate BS, retarded Online survelience BS under a mask of Protecting the kids(as it they were ever protected considering the racial makeup of EU cities), Some crisis Push for more centralistation because tha always worked so well, constant blabering on Abaut sommon Forces that ends in nothing, Establishing Erasmus aka A free way for girls to whore themselfs.

>>737050945Gang violence

>>737052259California, NY, Illinois, Virginia, and NJSpecially in places like L.A, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, portland, Chicago, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Bronx, and their satellite suburban sprawls. If youre a real nigga about it, no these are extremely far left strong holds. Our far left is the progressive-democrat. They are socialists who believe in critical theory regarsing rqce, gender and religion and believe dismantling civil rights to property ownership, self defense, and private wealth. These are tenants of their ideas, putting them in line with Marxism and Maoism. These groups were very extreme and resulted in millions dying for pursuits of equality and equity.
