This person had a long history of saying terrible stuff. Like borderline fash stuff. Homophobia etc.

Dark souls 1 had good lore and then they just did the same exact story 3 times in a row. One of the most disappointing things about the sequels.

 

That's pretty much it. Haven't been able to get into chapo as much lately. Felix's attempts to force some meme him and his gamer bros came up with just doesn't land most of the time.

I could listen to Tanya talk about tricking her nephews into liking crystals and rocks forever though.

Very nice to have a leftist podcast that feels like its hosted by real people.

Check out Trillbillies if you haven't. They're good folks.

I have no idea why people would say cumtown is leftist at all... it isn't, its a podcast about dick jokes and how funny it is to say the N word as a white person. There are funny bits, Adam and Stav seem like genuinely good dudes but I'm convinced Nick is a sociopath, and that his "joking" racism isn't all that joking.

They got big by being friends with Chapo. That's the only reason they pop up in leftist circles.

Yeah honestly if the guy looked poor I wouldn't have held it against him too much but he was clearly middle class white dude that was doing fine.

Worked at a grocery store for a while where we sold cheese sliced off those big wheels. Watched a cool dude in the deli almost get fired because he put a price tag on a wheel to display the price per pound - but in the corner of the sticker he had rang it as a like .1 lb slice just to give an example of the per pound price. Some insufferable boomer walked up and demanded the whole wheel at like the price of the .1lb tag or whatever.

Management freaked out on the kid and gave the boomer the cheese for less than a dollar - which is asinine... this isn't like a false advertising situation... the cheese clearly says X.XX$ PER POUND. Entitled boomer walked away with like 200$ worth of cheese and almost got a kid fired.

Radicalizing moment for sure.

Those bigass wheels of cheese are expensive too if you were to buy one

Thanks to another commentator I realized that Disco Elysium counts for this category and absolutely has to get my vote. Dark Souls is solidly second place.

There has never been a game yet that has the massive fucking balls of Disco Elysium. Imagine releasing a game about substance abuse, mental illness, and communism to critical AND mass market appeal.

Think about how many games don't bother to say ANYTHING at all. And then there's Disco.

 

Its becoming clear that China is on track to match or overtake the USA as a global superpower. Since like half of our economy is based on Chinese imports - is there even anything the bourgeoisie / military / intelligence agencies can do about it? Do you think we're going to move more towards conflict or is China going to pimp slap us and tell us to know our role or they won't make any iphones for us or whatever.

Real conflict seems very unlikely but there are psychos like John Bolton who will refuse to accept that USA isn't numba 1 anymore.
