He thought that I, a young child of age 7-14, was a good therapist for his trauma. I called him a monster multiple times and he seemed to be happy that I called him that.

Assuming this is real, It sounds to me like he knew that troop worship was all bullshit and he wanted to hear an unpropagandized kid call him exactly what he knew he was.

It's tough knowing bad things about family members, because no matter what you do they are going to impart big chunks of themselves onto you by virtue of helping raise you during your critical development years. i hope you got all of the good things and none of the bad.

imagining future Americans getting mad at the global acknowledgement of the Korean and Vietnamese and Iraqi genocides.

Did these people forget the movie about Dunkirk that came out a few years ago? Hitler literally didn't let them just retreat, he hit them constantly with the Luftwaffe the entire time.

I mean, we're only looking at about 300 megadeaths. That's not so bad, really. :strangelove-wow:

I know it was Apple my caller ID said so

This is why those incredibly obvious scam calls are so prevalent, you just have to hit one person like this for it all to be worth it.

I'm pretty sure it's only used by us to describe people who call themselves anarchists but simp for the Democrats.

Is the show actually cool or is this a one-off moment like Squidward going on strike?

either way I should watch it. maybe I'll be able to steer the cytube towards it after we finish Gundam.

As footage of Japanese civilians with their skin peeling off played on the screen, the audience of Americans was laughing hysterically as if they were watching Charlie Chaplin or the Marx Brothers.

Everyone here is talking about the stories, but I want to add a point about how the hobby itself makes you really buy into the universe.

There's this concept in tabletop that sometimes called "Your Dudes", which basically describes how incredibly attached you get as a player to an army if you take the opportunity to customize them. My own Sisters of Battle aren't just pixels on a screen that I spawn in when I have enough command points, I remember painting literally every single on of their guns, liveries, and armored corsets. I've thought of names for each of the squads and applied little color variations to them so I can tell them apart on the board. I know the names of the sergeants and exactly what bits and pieces of wargear I attached to each of them so I can swap them in and out based on my army list. I have a whole backstory about how they come from a feudal planet and their liveries are super colorful because it's their family's banner.

Anyway I think that people who actually play the game get way more attached to the universe than in other hobbies, and that drives them to want to bend over backwards to explain why their faction is the Good Guys, actually.

An important note: this American is a special ops veteran who completed combat deployments to Afghanistan. He came to Ukraine before Russia's full-scale war on Feb. 24. He is an experienced, well-trained soldier who gave up his lucrative career in the US in order to help Ukraine
