OLD GOOD NEW BAD
you seem mad. Did you get banned from r/sonyglazersincorporated?
>this site is so dead people now brazenly post reddit and social media screencaps on an hourly basis while the rest of the board slows down to a crawl
>Xbox 360 era>Good
>>739587763The site has been getting progressively overrun with tourists that just never left since 2015. Now most of the userbase is comprised of zoomers for whom this sort of thing is the norm. Most of them don't even give a shit about board culture anymore. I'll take the days of roodypoo and candy ass or cope seeth senpai over this any day of the week.
>>739585645That actually looks like shit though. It wasn't even good for 2006.
>>739587885It was a hell of a lot better than current consoles.
>>739585645How is that soulful?
>>739585645The development teams grew too large, and (((shareholders))) are evil parasites that need to be taken out back and killed.
>>739587763>>739587993People are more likely to reply if its a screencap from another website. Don't know what explains it, but it's true.
>>739585645Games never had soul, they were always just products
>>739585645Soulful times create soulful games, soulless times create soulless games.
>>739590074Irrelevant. Most of the best classic artworks were commissioned.
>>739585645Soul is just another word for hardware limitations meaning the players imagination had to fill in most of the details and nothing can beat the imagination. As hardware improves and things achieve a greater visual fidelity, the imagination doesn’t have to work as hard and the details the game provides cannot stand up to the details that imagination can.
>>739587993>>739587763You're both right and let me tell you my solution to this: move to /vr/. It's amazing how much better it is over there.
>>739590206No it isn't lmao.
>>739585645Damn that looks AI generated
>>739587993>>739587763Maybe people really do move on? Maybe the meme of "you are here forever" was actually only about you and not most other people.
>>739587421This but unironically.
>>739587993just do the common sense thing and ignore 90% of the threads and just focus on one?? Not like its all shit. And yes Im aware of the irony of this reply.

>>7396031922006 was still near peak LoTR popularity and making Oblivion console-first opened the gates to a huge new player base.Shifting the visual design towards the Jackson films guaranteed the best pull for this new audience.
>>739585645Stop being retarded
>>739587993New people joining communities is the only way the stay alive, retard. Ours is the opposite problem - most people here are over 30, we're just dying off
>>739585645>what the fuck happenedthe industry was taken over by people who don't play games and honestly see them as a waste of time, but just acknowledge that you can make money with it, which they are interested in.
>>739585645Dark souls happened
>>739585645Women, unironically
Games were a phenomena of a certain age group, that age group are still playing them and making up the majority of the customers. Theyu are just older.When all the uncs start dying the industry will collapse, younger gens don't give a fuck about games in anything like the same numbers.
>2015N*gg**, this site has already been dead for almost 20 years back then
>>739590206What the fuck are you smoking, post-hack /vr/ is worse than /v/.
>>739608652The reason the industry sucks now, is cause all the devs are old men and take themselves too seriously. When they were younger they made what was cool, even if it was cringe. Cringe is cringe, but it's also cool when you're alone in your room playing a video game.All these AAA games are fucking trash, oh my god I can't show a titty! oh my god not the tropes. Faggots, the lot of them.
>>739585735It genuinely seems like a better place to actually talk about video games. The impermanence of this board allows morons to treat it as a dumping ground. Whenever you search a basic question about a video game a Reddit thread tends to pop up which at least preserves and possibly facilitates discussion,
>>739585645Capitalism sucked the soul out of the devs by making them pursue profit over passion and as a result you get shit games designed to siphon the maximum amount of money from its consumers with the least possible effort.
The idea of diverse developers is that you can appeal to a wider audience, however a team needs to be a close knit unit to make cool things and now with all this diversity there is no close knit unit and it's group who hate each other. women, niggers and faggots are annoying as fuck and problem causers, especially with the current victim status and social media being the way it is.The lack of women, niggers and faggots in eastern teams is why those eastern companies still make good games.If the investors force them to also diversify, then they will also fall and the entire industry will collapse.
>>739608870It was always profits over passion, go listen to interviews of old teams who made all the best stuff. They were working 10 hours a day, 7 days a week due to big bonuses offered.
>>739585645>sovlummm, racist dogwhistle much, CHUD

If this thread doesn't "redpill" (as the goyim say) you that the word "sovl" is a normgroid term nothing will
>>739609117This can't be refuted.
>>739587885Correct
>>739609020The only passion was the men enjoying being in a "boys club", once they removed that by adding women they destroyed every dev team. There is literally no developer that is worth a damn now, cause they ruined what made them work together so well.
>>739607551>Literary work that condenses the soul of the west>Kids bookNo, nice try. Maybe I was wrong though, maybe you're not spiritually brown, maybe you're just a hook nosed parasite.
>>739609183Vanilla WoW was made by D&D nerds that just happened to be employed and that’s why it was successful.
>>739609273It was 99.99% white and asian men, working 10 hours a day for lots of money. The only women there were working at the desk, or jiggling their tits around.

>Sword and shield out while riding the horseStaged. Mounted combat in a Bethesda game? Imagine the buggy mess..
>>739609446it's a bit ironic, because nobody called anyone tourist back in the day

Tourist is my second favorite Nethack class, after Caveman
>>739609251It's fine if you like it but it is for children. LotR isn't literature, you'll never find someone who isn't a coping Anglo saying otherwise.

>>739609726Shakespeare's great but you better be watching plays and not just reading them. Tolkien is fine fantasy fiction, not lit, and there's nothing wrong about that.

>>739587763There's also like 3 or 4 Blue Cuckchive threads being sapmmed at once. That's gotta count for something, right?
>>739587993That doesn't make any sense. Anyway, the election tourists all moved to X after elon bought it and allowed you to say nigger on there. 4chan is now almost exclusively brownoids from pakistan/india/nigeria and troons. Hope this helps.

>>739607868nta but this looks niceI like how clean and simple it looks, maybe i'm just weird but I do miss games that weren't so busy, if that makes sense. Simpler geometry and detail without it being some celshaded/cartoony game.
>>739585645>what the fuck happened?Occupy Wall Street
>>739609841>Tell me you have never read lotr/the hobbit/appendices/silmarilion without telling me you haven't read them.If you did, and actually contemplated the themes and messages in them, of the quality of writing, their meaning, you would not be parroting such midwit nonsense. >Hurr durr the Odyssey/Iliad is fantasy and thus kids storiesFucking accursed man-beast.

>>739610716Yep. I remember when being "color blind" (i.e. treating everybody the same, no matter their race or class) was the "progressive" mindset. Now that's racist. Silence is violence. If you don't hate whites and worship - y'know - you're a racist.
>>739590039This is survivorship bias, the sites overall traffic has taken a nosedive and threads stay up for multiple days at a time
>>7396088384chan is better for live discussion.Reddit is better for quality of discussion. If Reddit weren't so anti white as a whole I'd consider it a much better website

>>739587993I guarantee you 90% of the moaning "oldfags" never report any posts.
>>739611757i am totally paraphrasing, and it was a little before my time, but from what i remember people started to protest wall street and all it (((stood for))). very conveniently, shortly after, 2008 rolls around and we start seeing idpol and surface level culture war shit pushed to the mainstream. the zeitgeist forgot about the kikes on wallstreet and now the same people argue amongst themselves who’s the better bleeding heart liberal helping poor old gay Mugumbo with AIDs down the block (they arent actually, but they sure do say they help people like that a lot with… support on the internet, and voting. and stuff)
>>739585645>weapon drawn on horseback>what the fuck happened?advertising standards
>>739611976that's wack. and of course you see the effects all the way here too in my small country because 'what the big ones do, the small will follow'. plus the internet today of course.man, I feel like we should purge some of the people altogether
>>739611450There's a leftie conspiracy theory that race tensions are manufactured to divert attention from the 1% richest people in America having too much money and power, which is what the occupy wall street protests were about.
>>739611450tl;dr Occupy Wall Street was a protest against the 1% (the elites) in the early 2010s. While it was predominantly comprised of leftists, there was a surprising amount of right wingers involved too. Not all of the right, mind you, but it was enough that the 1% (the elites) were actually worried that this was what would finally unite the people against them. So, they had to turn everybody against each other. Everything's racist. Everything sexist. The right is responsible for all the woes of minority groups. Etc etc. Combine that with gamergate on the internet and the aftermath of the 2016 election, now we're in our current hellscape.
>>739611013anti white is good chud
>>739611450(((bankers))) got upset that people were wising up to their tricks and pulled conceivable every string they could to pivot the focus from class politics to race and identity politics. It worked, OWS functionally collapsed within weeks after being infiltrated with progressive stack insanity, and we're still wallowing in the fallout to this day.
>>739612531So trve, there were no race tensions at all before le elites injected them into people's minds
>>739611450>what went down at wall street?Whites, poorfags, NEETs, gays, blacks, women ect ect all joined forces when they figured out that (((they))) caused the 2008 financial crisis by selling everyone else out, so they all marched together and protested at the physical home of the stock market.A few years later all those groups suddenlty turned against each other, what a coincidence!
>>739612531>>739612629ridiculous. how could they steer people away so easily with just niggers and faggots?
>>739612498>There's a leftie conspiracy theoryIsn't that an alt-right conspiracy theory?
>>739590206/vr/ is /v/ but slower. Most of the threads are reposted word for word from /v/, the only difference being that they stay up for three days there. It also attracts more schizos (like the Sega Master System guy) because they have more freedom and board room to smear their shit.
>>739612752true
>>739612783No, alt-righters think that race tensions are organic and happen due to demographic change
>>739612681I didn't say that all, troon. You were actually pathetic enough to make up something to argue with lmaoLiterally show me exactly where I said "there were no racial tensions whatsoever before Occupy." Go ahead. Here's my post with my pic >>739612531Circle "there were no racial tensions whatsoever before Occupy" right now.

>>739612902The implication is that racial tensions are manufactured retard, don't play coy. I am responding to a well known leftist talking point which point is basically >racial tension only exists because the elites want us to fight each other But to the point>So, they had to turn everybody against each other. Everything's racist. Everything sexist. The right is responsible for all the woes of minority groups. Etc etc.>Combine that with gamergate on the internet and the aftermath of the 2016 election, now we're in our current hellscape.Right here faggot. They were not turning people against each other, groups have become hostile towards each other because the country became minority majority.

>>739612531>>739612629>>739612752That's crazy, do you really think the richest people in the world would influence society in a way to maintain their riches at the expense of the working class?

>>739613021sometimes I think I live in a completely different world than the one at large and it surprises me every time I take a look at it in disbelief
>>739613107Y'know it really does sound crazy when you put it like that. I'm going to bed.
>>739613159Well I'm alt-right and I blame the Jews
>>739613270you forgot to RENAME BEFORE POSTING, retard
>>739613107Race tensions are not profitable. Instability in general is bad for the capitalist class. They would much prefer cheap slave workers of all colors and creeds working happily together for them. And I mean it's not profitable in the long run even if it may be in the short run, but I guess the elites are just dummies who can't think two steps ahead.>>739613159They blame Jews for creating the demographic change itself. They do not blame them for fermenting racial conflict, quite the opposite, they blame them for trying to homogenize society racially.
>>739585645>Games used to have sovlname 15
>>739607868Why does Bethesda always choose some shitty early-game loadout for their box art?

No, because those people were never a threat niggerThe rich classes were always about>controlling the middle class>maintaining their current power against new upstart upper classes that would subvert "Old Money" The reason for the 2nd is that as things change, the tactics and reasons for being in power for previous upper classes go away but as they want to stay in power they manufacture issues that justify their ways, while stifling new upper classes that want to gain power by SOLVING existing problems.The working class always supported the 'big rich people' without any propaganda at play. It was the middle class and competing upper classes that gave those in power a run for their money.
>>739613547It would still be bad for the corporate dictators right? You don't want your subjects to be convinced that they are being deprived of franchise in any case.

>>739613297>"elites are just dumdums hehe"They have been winning hard for the past 50 years dear retard. The "worker issue" has been largely solved. Race tensions ARE profitable: its just another distraction that keeps the cattle occupied with each other instead of banding together, allowing you to rob them blind. When race tensions start to lose traction, you swap in the next thing (gender wars, woke ideology, whatever keeps people distracted). The elites NEED managed and controlled divisions to maximize profit. While a shangri-la you described where people just slave away for them would be even more profitable, it just isnt realistic.
>>739613297>Instability in general is bad for the capitalist class.
>>739585645I'm convinced mods are the ones making these threads. There's no way anyone can defend this
>>739613297>(((Elites))) make it impossible for anyone to threaten them>This means they are dumb???
>>739614141Maybe, Hiro has been doing a lot of sketchy shit lately. Allegedly.
>>739613934But in practice that's not what happened. What happened is that now there is a racial movement within the states that competes for power and has a chance to cause serious disruption. Elites are dumb is obviously sarcastic, I don't think that they are, so I don't think that they would have fermented a racial movement on purpose. Racialists are immune to utilitarian logic, they are willing to give up a lot of profit and prosperity and a lot of bread and circus to achieve their ideals. And you can agree or disagree with their ideals but the point is that creating radicalism is dangerous to a system. On the other hand the multiculti kumbaya ideology worked for a while and arguably is the most profitable one. That is what would allow for example to bring in a million of jeets to work for scraps. I think it's pretty obvious that the elites would much prefer if people believed in the interchangeability of everyone like liberals do. Or is displacing native workers for workers who are used to a lower quality of life and would accept an unfair wage not an extremely profitable endeavor? Multiculti is the ideology that allows it.
>>739614141STFU, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT BREAD (((jews)))
>>739614246>Second anon to not get sarcasmJeez Louise. I guess it's my fault.
>>739614261>I don't think that they would have fermented a racial movement on purposeAnd that's why they filled the news with race-based rage bait? To reduce racial tensions?
>>739587993It was r/thedonald nigger how many times does this have to be stated, /pol/ was trolling about Trump and that subreddit actively worshipped him they got banned and came to /pol/ for refuge and have shit up the whole site with political garbage ever since. GG opened the door for that shit too.
>>739614404Maybe he was being sarcastic again, the elites obviously wanted racial-tensions.
>>739614261>Elites are dumb is obviously sarcasticElites (most economists, politics and finance niggers) are 1 standard deviation of IQ below Philosophers, Mathematicians and Physicists. They are midwits. There isn't actually any good reason economists and politicians should be richer than mathematicians and philosophers, they're only rich because they are in power, like Warlords/Aristocracy/Emperors back in yay times

>>739614417>GG opened the door for that shit tooYet you can talk about video games on 8moe, which has GG thread, while every thread on 4/v/ gets derailed with political bait.
>>739614680some of those threads are from mid 2025
>>739614404I think that it was just a natural expression of race tensions. This cartoonish view of a total control on all narratives at all times is childish. There are definitely things being kept from the public but if the entire nation is descending into racial camps then it will be expressed in the news, yes. Are you forgetting that this era is also when king nigger was elected? It's not like occupy wall street is the only thing that happened there, race was naturally in the forefront of things. Honestly runaway leftism also has something to do with this. To make the conclusion that the elites thus want race tensions is a non sequitur. And you know what, maybe I was wrong and >>739614486 has a point, maybe they are fucking retarded because that's a dumb plan that would inevitably and obviously lead to a white racial movement that will destabilize the country beyond what is profitable.

>>739614767>>I think that it was just a natural expression of race tensions. This cartoonish view of a total control on all narratives at all times is childishNo it wasn't. The USSR was getting really close to it but failed out of incompetency.Consider this>we get brain chips>everyone uses them otherwise cant get a job>they are focused around wrongthink censorship instead of making humanity more moral in a Neiztschean way>the initial censorship push is extreme but not complete>the first generation of censors comes from a background of no censorship, but the 2nd gen doesn't>they are even more into censorship, and as soon as they get hired to build the censorship algorithm they turn everyone into brain damaged robots just to stop wrong think>humanity is effectively extinctThe USSR tried, and now the US is actively trying. The only countries that are vehemently against this kind of shit are the top 3 countries on the planet like Switzerland, Singapore and Japan
>>739614767>This cartoonish view of a total control on all narratives at all times is childishIt's like that in China, but totally impossible for western countries though. Just too big to be feasible, totally impossible. But not for China, because that's different for reasons I guess.
>>739615026>we get brain chipsYou mean digital ID, which is already happening in Europe after people calling you a conspiracy theorist for years if you said it was coming.
>>739587993No wonder pokeslop spam has been becoming more frequent in the past few years
>>739614404And lemme ask you something btw. What is the utility in the anti Israel movement exactly? I can see the logic in keeping slaves occupied with infighting (as long as its ineffective, which is why I disagree that race is a good vector for this). But what exactly does the capitalist class stands to achieve from the fact that young voters are going to destroy the Israeli lobby completely? And if that is their goal and they have absolute power then why did they not just refuse that lobby long ago? Is war in the middle east suddenly not profitable? >>739615026That's a nice thought experiment but I fail to see the relevance, please spell it out for me. Because as far as I'm concerned when you introduce brain chips you kind of stray from natural propaganda and veer into magical thinking. In that case yes we are fucked. But people in the states don't have brain chips, their minds are still free in principle, and I think that's evident by recent events. Agree with white nationalism or not, it was an extreme taboo and people were socially conditioned to absolutely not engage in it yet the young generation seems to be perceptive to it. Because you actually can't control minds without brain chips.
>>739614767>. And you know what, maybe I was wrong and >>739614486has a point, maybe they are fucking retarded because that's a dumb plan that would inevitably and obviously lead to a white racial movement that will destabilize the country beyond what is profitable.They work through poisoning things and short sighted degenerating while being deaf to larger scale consequences because they're effectively the niggers of the upper classThey CAN kill off everyone and ruin humanity even if their plans make no sense, simply because they're currently more powerful/richer and in control + their methodology works through bleeding everyone else out.As stated elsewhere, the actual competition to a degenerate upper class is a healthy middleclass and a better up-and-coming upper class that seeks to solve current problems. The current problems include the absence of meta-responsibility and awareness of just how degenerative the current upper class is.In other words, if you want to improve things, become an UBARMANSCH whose superiority helps the planet with good intent at the forefront (including his own personal uprising), not some bootlicker appealing to 90iq laborers.
>>739609704If you dont like generic fantasy than you're not really a fantasy fan. You're just a new wave larper
>>739615274Sure, it's easier to do that in china where there is no expectation and tradition of free speech and more importantly no pretense of free speech. This pretense exists in the west so there is no effective way to censor anything and everything. If the west becomes openly a dictatorship then maybe it would be possible but we're talking about modern era America and the media in the 2010s.
>>739615457>That's a nice thought experiment but I fail to see the relevance, please spell it out for me.The principle is true even for regular propaganda. As time has gone on, the modes of thinking of the average population were guilted and sidelined to the point where talking points converge into increasingly small subsets of falsehoods repeated ad nauseam. In part democracy is to blame for this.>their minds are still free in principleThat's just being pedantic, in reality there should be NOTHING resembling propaganda, the empowering of the ignorant or the selective censoring of argumentation at all. There is no 'partial freedom' only complete freedom or its absence.>In that case yes we are fucked. But people in the states don't have brain chips, their minds are still free in principle, and I think that's evident by recent eventsConsider that even without brain chips very few people will ever take a Platonic, Stoic or Neiztschean responsibility for themselves and only talk about the same few (media-centered) topics at a time and you'll realize that what I'm talking aboutPeople are heavily influenced by the symbols of their environment, but as the 20th and 21st century progressed, this environment has been degenerated into one of a very small subset of ideas. The ancient Greeks knew this principle and thought all good came from natureAlso its not that average Joe was ever not effectively a negro, its that people who are not niggers are capable of avoiding this 'due process' (attempted retardation of the west) by simply not participating, but just like any law or system, the notion of microchips means that eventually King-Niggers will not allow even hypothetical avoidance of participation in the system, because they'll start trying to retard (You) for opinions that you have on the internet. Which is why you're posting on 4chan and not talking to your coworkers about this so I can call you a cocksucking faggot retard nigger here.
>>739587421Prove this wrong
>>739613370They were using the most generic looking fantasy armors to try to appeal to all the normies that saw the Lord of the Rings movies. It worked pretty well.
>>739615780I think that the white nationalism example I gave is a good one to how that principle is not true. What happened during 2016 was in opposition to the propaganda that was fed to America for 50 years straight prior. Again whether you agree with their opinions or not they have changed their mode of thinking drastically in opposition of the mainstream.If I'm being pedantic you're being an absolutist expecting absolute freedom to ever exist. The principle of it matters and a mind that is not literally, physically entrapped has a chance to escape, as I think we've seen in recent decades. In fact I'm sure you don't view yourself as a part of the degenerated masses, how come you exist. Very few people is what was always the deal. The masses are retarded and what matters is that the few people can lead them or change society according to their own beliefs. Also, I freely talk about this with people because I'm a weirdo who never cared about anything but expressing myself authentically, much to my detriment. I just also do it here because here people actually have interesting conversation because you're right, most people censor themselves in the mainstream.
>>739585645Developers stopped leaving things to the imagination. You don't need to map out every detail.
>>739616043>generic LOTRthis is a paradoxnot everything was LOTR before LOTRIf it was generic, it wouldn't be LOTRAlso all of the mid to armors in Oblivion are unique designs aesthetically >Daedric, Madness, Order, Mythic Dawn, Amber, Glass, the Secret Knight Set, Blades, Steel, Dwarven, Leather, Iron
>>739609612can you niggers stop talking about jews for a moment and respond to my question
>>739609612No. Unmodded Oblivion is like eating raw flour. Bake something with it or go home.
>>739616528God damn it
>>739587763because those sites are now fasterthey have better API connection, better support for different file types and sizesif something happens and its on tmz, 5 seconds later you were able to "spam" it on 4channel a decade ago. now you gotta wade through several layers of bot-checks and maybe the "system" thinks its spam or whatever the fuckyou unironically get better timely info on shit sites like godlikeproductions than here
>>739616250>What happened during 2016 was in opposition to the propaganda that was fed to America for 50 years straight prior. I think its more proof of my argument. This mentality was almost stomped out or concerned into something barely resembling itself afterwards, something far more American, generic and less self assertive where the generalized 'next step' defines it, not the overall 'goal' or 'spirit', wherein if they got what they asked for, it would not be the same as what /pol/ asked for.>>If I'm being pedantic you're being an absolutist expecting absolute freedom to ever existIt does, and its manifestation is constant denial of any partial freedom. You gotta read Nietzsche . The very idea that you'd argue most of these things the way you do is itself a very 21st century mentality, one that did not even exist as a hypothetical before WW2. Even the pre-WW2 'normal nihilist' culture was completely different to what we have now because of how oppressive the MGS2 Patriots-tier environmental 'destructive pressure' is>The principle of it matters and a mind that is not literally, physically entrapped has a chance to escape, as I think we've seen in recent decades. In fact I'm sure you don't view yourself as a part of the degenerated masses, how come you exist. People do shit outside politics that you may not be aware of. I'm literally a Buddhist Arhat>Very few people is what was always the deal. The masses are retarded and what matters is that the few people can lead them or change society according to their own beliefs.No, what matters is that people start assuming the masses matter and start themselves becoming the ubermensch, and that the system encourages this. Right now no Western European system does anything of the sort, it only cares about normative and economic pressure and sees it as the true judge of good and evil, as well as the limit as to what a human can be. A persons true moral 'impetus' is constant denial of any regressions or limit
>>739616328>You don't need to map out every detail.This is a paradoxNo game has ever mapped out every detailAnd Elden Ring, which has a similar art style to Oblivion, is much higher fidelity Even then, look at Oblivions Daedric and Ebony Armor. More detail than most of Starfields armor
>>739585645>Games used to have sovl, what the fuck happened?FromSoftware took it all for themselves.
>>739585645games still have soul you just lost yours.
>>739611013Only small niche communities are good for discussion, past that Reddit is a ragebait for karma shithole
>>739587763>>739587993You people welcomed this by making these kind of posts bitching about it instead of reporting and ignoring, all of these bait threads reach post limit and get archived because of engagement like yours, no amount of blaming le evil tourists will exonerate you from blame
>>739585645>Bethesda slop>sovlThe same sovl as in paintings of your kid on walls
>>739587763yeah.. now
>>739613885What an odd thing to say.
>>739587763I have noticed especially this year how slow are actual organic threads, which don't involve marketers trying to shovel their shit here. Actual big companies absolutely love to come here and shill their products, and so do indie devs. Its not surprising as the crossposting between 4chan, twitter and reddit is very common now. And yes that polish kid makes money by just cropping your posts for engagement, and so does many other thirdie.
>>739590206shut the fuck up retard
>>739585645Is thatIS THATANTI-SOUL GAS?
>>739585645Did they forget to add textures to the mountains?
>>739613513exactly, people saying reddit is good for discussions where anything you say can get dogpiled and moderators step in to fuck with you too.That doesn't mean 4chan is good, it's only good for Live chat recent shit. Reddit is still shitter and I only interact if I absolutely have to (3D printer questions with the manufacturer etc).
>>739613297>They would much prefer cheap slave workers of all colors and creeds working happily together for them.only half correct, diversity brings conflict and inability to "work together". That's good to stop unionization.
>>739615457I dunno what the fuck Israel's plans are, but the Epstein shit shows that all the crazy conspiracies about world leaders being linked to Israel and human trafficing were correct all along.Why didn't they try harder to keep that info from coming out? I don't know. It's like having a roomate swear he's not fucking with your food for years and then one day you just find a photo album of his dick in your penut butter jar.
>>739624936How exactly do unions harm capitalism? Obviously organizing workers makes them more efficiate than if they waste time arguing>Leaked Amazon documentYou'd have to be very unitelligent to believe that this isn't fake.
>>739615615Who the fuck cares whether someone is a fan of something? Kill yourself faggot
>>739626386Go fucking play Call of Duty than. You're the faggot.
