Yeah, this is very common. Most subtitles are bad because of rushed, underpaid, and sometimes underqualified translators. Even for wide-audience international releases like Terrace House on Netflix. But this show actually is on the better end of low-quality subtitles. A lot of times they will just completely miss lines, mistranslate important points/jokes, and change the dynamics of two characters.

”Anime is aesthetically right wing”

Uses AI generated image to prove point

Yeah sure

My first reaction on seeing the title was to name a games that just have fun core mechanics where replaying the game is basically just doing more of the same fun thing, so ULTRAKILL means I'm on the right track.
Prodeus is a pretty good doom clone. Not as in-depth as ULTRAKILL, but nonetheless has fun weapons and your basic doom (eternal) movement/mechanics. Blasting your way through enemies is as fun on the first level as the last. And the Quake games hold up extremely well, and the mechanics are so simple and powerful that you can really have fun replaying and getting better.
Stealth games are also very fun for this. The Splinter Cell series (especially Chaos Theory) are very fun to try to perfect/improve on. Dishonored and Thief as others have mentioned. And Midnight Club is the best racing series for this. You'll have to emulate it, but it's worth it. Completely open-world, and learning the city layout over time is very satisfying.

Me not voting for a genocider is much more of an accomplishment than a policy that pushed the timing of doomsday back 2 hours.

I have autism too, and if I went out of my way to mention something (even without thinking), and people were talking about that thing I mentioned, I would simply just understand why that happened instead of being rude to them about it, like you are being to those other commentors.

This post was not about rule 8

Puts "Rule 8" in the title, with a specific subordinate clause just to talk about it

Okay.

Did you seriously just forget your own metaphor? Jesus Christ. Read the last couple of comments in this chain.

Your commie neighbor sounds way cooler than you, can I talk to him instead?

Okay, so now imagine a gang was going to use your neighbors house as a hideout and then take every opportunity to steal all of your shit and threaten to kill you if you did something they didn't like.

Or you can just think of it as a matter of "national security" like when all the white nations got together and slaughtered a million people in the middle east. Russia is ensuring its own safety.

Yes, Russia does not want imperialist NATO outposts on its border. The Russian government explicitly said this, and warned both NATO and Ukraine not to try it.

The US and NATO, being the provocative aggressors that they are, poured tons of resources into establishing Ukraine as a NATO member. So then Russian invaded. It's very simple. When you are faced with a globe-spanning warmonger that forces countries all around the world to hold its military bases, taking actions to prevent its growth is more anti-imperialist than imperialist.

The US and NATO are also currently funding, supplying, and politically providing strategic support to a genocide to uphold a strategic regional ally in the middle east. Don't pretend they are not the imperialists here.

All of my heroes think a just war is good, and an unjust war is bad. Russia is much less imperialist than NATO, the opposing faction.

Russia winning this war is a much bigger blow to imperialism than the alternative.

Can you explain in a quick sentence why you think everyone here is saying the NYT article is so bad? It doesn't seem like you understand.

Or when you're not from New York and it's like 4 pizza shops on one specific street in Manhattan

 

The banning non-competes is actually pretty good, don't get me wrong, but that also wasn't really him.
