Who do you even need to fight bro? If I was say getting mugged I would give them all my valuables save a 10 % tip that I could give them when I was allowed to run the hell away from there. Do not be a stupid macho idiot. Be a smart coward without neither a wallet, gun nor a fatal wound.
Jokes aside, the main uptick is the smaller chance of someone less mentally stable than you with less to lose also having a gun.
You obviously need a gun with the same caliber bullet to stop an incoming gun shot. Have you not even read Newton's laws of motion?
Not the one you replied to, but I've read all your comments and they are well thought out and right. Just seemed like you deserved to and maybe needed to hear that.
Just to establish some ethos in your mind here: I am banned from Lemmygrad for "trying to lib up the grad" after discussions about Russia. Even so, I would say it is both disingenuous and wrong to claim that they are all drooling over Putin. Most of them, at least those worth listening to, are critically supportive of Russia due to them being in opposition to Western hegemony. That said, many of them are also unfortunately very much under the impression that all Ukrainians are nazis, which is obviously not true.
To properly evaluate them for what they are, and not as an infantile "they are genocide loving, totalitarian, red-fash tankies", one needs to understand how dystopical their view on the current world order is. If anything, this should be the take away from their dissonant voices, because their dystopic view of the Western world unfortunately bears a lot of merit (which does not equivocate to many of the alternatives being much better).
The irony of an American trying to educate someone else on their ignorance, while simultaneously expressing their deepest ignorance themselves.
The number of brilliant Russian professors in the west is a sad testament to how little modern Russia has in common with the Soviet union.
I have played it for a while, albeit shorter than some true veterans, and I am a little bit torn in my opinion about it. The customizations options are great and the story is cool and engaging. However, the game feels very much grindy overall and you have to win the game to unlock higher difficulty settings, which is a bit boring in my opinion. Also, the loot from some early bosses are better than what comes later for certain builds, meaning you have to return back to areas you have passed through and grind the same bosses again for better versions of the same loot that you already have, which is also a tad boring. I've also had some weird stuttering issues on Linux. Otherwise, great game and I recommend trying it!
Merriam-Webster:
the deliberate and systematic destruction of a racial, political, or cultural group
How are the Palestinian communities not being deliberately and systematically destroyed? There is no "oopsie doopsie I just blew up and later colonized your homes" caveat. Also, had it not been for the US blocking resolutions, the world community, including the global south, would have denounced Israel long ago through the UN, opening for possible peace keeping troop deployment.
"No genocide" because there are not enough dead for you yet or because of some artificial definitions in use by enitities such as the UN?
EDIT: No mass murder can be classified as genocide until the US gives the green light, am I right?
Yea, "totally absolute for sure" was the standard you applied to yourself, I assume, when you talked about how thousands will die for sure in the coming years in perpetuity? The numbers for 2023 are no higher than normal either, and this time I won't bother to dig them up for you just so you can make a shitty accusation about me cropping a screenshot to not include info or something. There is no data that backs the claims you have made. I have provided more than sufficient for mine.
Edit: I guess next time I see a fucking "mOVInG tHe GOOalPoSt!!!" I will take the clue and not fucking bother.
I agree with you and actually argued for this further down some comment chain. However, mortality increase was temporary in Norway where I am from (and AFAIK mostwhere in Europe), hence indicate that there is no uncontrolled pandemic here.
Here is an infographic from the start of 2023:
The US might prove true if you include gun nuts toppling their own government by voting for fascist scum.
