Geopolitical Analysis

"We lost the 20 rangs of soft power because of Drumpf, we need them ALL", says the geopolitical experts on ARR SLASH DRAMA @nuclearshill @JimieWhales

"We don't need ANY RINGS", says @Dude

You're both wrong.

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.

If one ring rules them all, the lesser rings are COMPLETELY USELESS!!

They're cuck rings, they literally bind you to the One Ring.

While we're wasting our taxpayer money on the 19 cuck rings, CHINA is taking the One Ring for herself. That's geopolitical suicide.

USAID knew this, so... why are they wasting our money?

Simple.

FRAUD

Rangs of Soft Power

Here's an accounting of the 19 lesser rings we WASTED our money on:

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky

1. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Musical in Ireland

2. Transgender Opera in Colombia

3. Peruvian Transgender Comic Book Series

Seven for the dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,

4. Electric Vehicles for Vietnam

5. Tourism Promotion in... Egypt.

6. "Condom" Purchases for Gaza

7. A Fish Farm in Afghanistan (That Was Immediately Abandoned)

8. A (Failed) Sesame Street Adaptation in Pakistan

9. A Mango Farming Initiative in Haiti (That Didn't Sell Any Mangoes )

10. DEI Advancement in Serbian Workplaces

Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,

11. S*x Reassignment Surgeries in Guatemala

12. A (Failed) Program to Teach Kenyan Youth How to Use Instagram to Become Influencers

13. A Reality TV Show in Afghanistan to Promote Democracy

14. Training Mongolian Yak Herders to Use Social Media

15. A Gender Studies Degree Program in Bangladesh

16. A Climate Change Board Game for Young Activists in the Philippines

17. A "Hip-Hop Dance for Empowerment" Program in Senegal

18. A Workshop on Writing Feminist Poetry in Kyrgyzstan

19. A Program to Train Ukrainian Farmers to Write Grant Applications in English

Not only did they spend millions trying to acquire 19 worthless rings, but they LOST FIVE of them. The sesame street ring, the fish farm ring, the Mango ring, and last but not least, our Kenyan Influencer ring was pawned for a Dodge Hellcat.

All this to say we only needed the one ring TO RULE THEM ALL, we only need the AIDS ring for teaching Africans not to pound sand into their foreskin. Obviously Mordor refers to Africa because it's "Where the Shadows Lie". Shadows are black, what else is black? You guessed it. BIPOCs.

I made a Longpost about Age of Empires 3 long ago about how the then upcoming AOE3 Definitive Edition was controversial because of perceived wokeness, like reworking Native Yank factions, because the original 2005 game was antiquated and racist by depicting Indians @Sphereserf3232 dancing around fires, and seen as offensively stereotypical.

These changes were controversial because it was seen as part of the wider wokefication of remakes, like Dead Space 1 remake, alongside the general perception of chuds that SanFran types had completely infiltrated gaming studios in American modern AAA gaming development.

AOE3 devs even went so far as to actually bring in Native yank advisors to tell them how to depict the 3 big factions, and what was no-no, so that when AOE3 released to an even more buggy state than any of the modern Definitive Edition Remakes by MicroSoftest, the perception was wide that focusing on culture-war type shit was what the majority of the budget and efforts had been focused upon, much to the jubilation of chuds

https://rdrama.net/post/195059/drama-2-years-ago-about-the

In all fairness, the AOE3 definitive edition did bring about many technical and gameplay improvements, conveniences and quality-of-life mechanics. But all of this was overshadowed by the poor release state, in which the fabled reworked indian civs had been very badly balanced, since the Indian civs in the eye of the drama-maelstrom had gotten the short end of the stick, gameplay-wise because the firedancing mechanic had allowed Indians ingame to turbo cuck European civs, by summoning super-powered high tier units - the absence of the fire-dancing mechanics made the Indian civs bottom tier upon release.

This was in conjunction with the promotional Youtube material for AOE3 DE was like 70% focused on cultural self-flagellation and 30% focus on gameplay, compared to the promotional advertisements for AOE1:DE, AOE2:DE & AOE4:DE. It didn't help that compared to the other 3 games, AOE3:DE was during the colonial era, and thus for minorities to be salty about it, and wokes to soy about it.

So battle lines between Soys-VS-wokes had already been drawn, but since it was released in 2020, it had released JUST before the great GaymerGate Zeitgheist from 2021-2024, where large amounts of AAA slop, often riddled with extreme progressive views would release and tank within months. But as the last 5 years passed, with games like Saints Row 2022 and DA Veilguard appearing to have failed financially, a lot of wingcuckery have taken positions for both chuds & soys

Soys want AOE3:DE to be a success because it is perceived that chuds hate it, and the inverse applies to chuds. Thus even in threads on /r/AOE3 where no cultural war is explicitly mentioned, there has always been an element of powder keg between the 2 autismo factiosn.

This week /r/AOE3 has learned that Microsoft has in all but name, shitcanned AOE3 support, and even cancelled much expected DLCs, which included much anticipated factions, like Polacks

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ic7u56/the_dlc_has_been_cancelled/m9p5ww0/?context=8

Users are understandably upset.

Most peeps are not upset Microcucks will not continue to support AOE3:DE with updates forward, but would have been able to make peace if they had just released the DLCs, and then finished support :marseybea

nannoyed: which is understandable.

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ic7u56/the_dlc_has_been_cancelled/m9onr9y/?context=8

Some peeps are taking it personally

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ic7u56/the_dlc_has_been_cancelled/m9ok721/?context=8

There's also inter-community infighting between all the other different games, like AOE1, AOE2, AOE3 &AOE4, because there is often the belief that the Real-Time-Strategy genre is already so small, that the userbase is fractured between them, and thus shitflinging occurs in a blame game between communities, like AOE3 blaming Age of Mythology Definitive Edition (AOM:DE) for "stealing their userbase" and thus making AOE3 (which is certain g*mers' favorite of the bunch) less financially viable and likely to be serviced by MicroSoft longer term

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ifj4hb/this_is_just_sad/magoklw/?context=8

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ifj4hb/this_is_just_sad/maglzq3/?context=8

Here's a "whale" (whatever the frick that means) of AOE3:DE posting his

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1if12vi/i_just_need_to_vent/

But by far the most cryposting in AOE3:DE is because in the same week as AOE3 got this super duper bad news, literally all of the other fricking AOE games (AOE2, AOE4 & Age of Mythology) are all getting new content, updates, DLC and support

Which as you can imagine makes our poor souls in /r/aoe3 really livid

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ihu0un/im_sure_there_was_no_budget/

Even the shit mobile game is getting updates and support

"THIS IS OFFENSIVE TO THE AOE3 COMMUNITY"

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ihrolq/this_announcement_is_offensive_to_the_community/

Some users tell OP to grow the frick up

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ihrolq/this_announcement_is_offensive_to_the_community/mazj90v/?context=8

Some strags tell everyone to sign a petition, this will FORCE Bill Gates to revitalize AOE3 support!!

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ihrolq/this_announcement_is_offensive_to_the_community/mazyf0z/?context=8

But most r-slurred of all is that AOE3 has a weird rivalry victim mentality, where they have this perception that the other AOE communities/subs are laughing at the expense of their misfortune? which is not the case at all, especially since there is often sympathy for them, even from the much more "successful" communities like AOE2, and especially since the chances of gaymers playing/buying one of the AOE games (AOE1,AOE2,AOE3,AOE4,AOM) are extremely likely to buy some or all of the others, even if those specific gaymers have a favorite between the current 5 main Microsoft titles.

I always assumed that these movies were trash, based on watching short excerpts online but today I was like, ok I feel like giving one a chance. I saw Iron Man ages ago and I thought it was ok but completely forgettable, hadn't seen any other MCU movie.Went online and searched for what people thought were the best Marvel movies. Saw some people saying Infinity War. Ok, I put on Infinity War. Ahahaha what is this shit? I'd say this is for children, but there were children's cartoons being made 30 years ago with 1/100th of the budget that are better.

Terrible acting (good actors but obviously they're not allowed to actually use their talents). Terrible visual effects that look like a low-budget videogame cutscene. Constant melodramatic music. Why does anyone like this shit? I'm not even against capeshit in general, there's some capeshit I enjoy. But this is just moronic tier slop.

It's a mystery to me why a great guy like you couldn't manage to win over voters, what with ageism, ad hominem attack and lying about other people's kids as a strategy. pic.twitter.com/DNBRNT7uxo

Me not agreeing with the logic isn't marginalizing them. Can I ask why it's so important for them to be validated by others? Believe what you want. Let me believe what I want. I'm not disrespecting them but you can't change your DNA. (1)

Firstly DNA does change over time. It can be why cancer develops, or trauma, which is why we know radiation is extremely dangerous. It's why we age. There is even a twin study composed by NASA to further assess it.Don't parrot things you don't know. You've likely been told many times gender is a social construct and willfully ignored this and scream deoxyribonucleic acid like its a magic gatcha. Most of the world also believes it's just X and Y without regards to intergender, the SRY gene (which brought out a lot of jackasses last year regarding Imane Khelif), or the genetic anomalies that alter sexual development (XXY, XYY, XO, etc.)You can't go a second without feeling like you're catering to someone by giving a modicum of respect based on a belief you've barely studied in highschool, or had it repeated into your head by propaganda of what you think someone should or shouldn't be. You can easily ignore this controversy altogether like most people do, let them live their lives and ... (3)

It's your right as an American 🇺🇸 to have and voice your opinions beliefs- it's also your right to be wrong. MAGA is not the problem. It's the infighting and tribalism that divide us. I just want the best for America and its citizens. We should all be able to revolve around this point. We are all Americans. (-1)

But your "best" for America and its citizens probably doesn't match my "best." And MAGA isn't the root of the problem, sure, but a manifestation of decades of political rot and subversion and lies going unchecked. Decades ago when it was decided that facts didn't matter, that was the slippery slope emerging. Please don't tell me MAGA isn't the problem when they're racist and ok with Nazis and persecution of anyone who isn't white male. If the goal was to spread Christ, as they claim, they need to reread their Bible if they have the literacy and reading comprehension skills. And if that wasn't the goal (which duh, it's not when it's coming from Trump/Elon/etc.), it's greed and evil intent personified. So sure, you can try to walk back years of poison, but you'll find no one will trust or listen to you again. (1)

Not mad - just pointing out the left's hypocrisy. What if a conservative said they didn't want to support trans businesses? Y'all would call them every name in the book. (-16)

No, I wouldn't. I mean that. It's your right to spend your money where you want. Our dollars are a form of voting, after all. I understand that and it doesn't make me mad. ETA that I learned a long time ago spending the mental energy being mad about something that doesn't impact me (ie, the conservatives boycotting a liberal business in your example) is just not worth it, that anger and hate is all-consuming and not productive.

I hate it I hate it I hate it. 90% of our student body relies on it to complete their work. There is near to no originality in their writing and work. We are nearing complete dependence on it from some students. AI checkers work sometimes but students just use AI then switch the words around to avoid this.

I know the upside that it has for us as a society, but we are losing creativity and gumption with every improvement. I hurt for them. I used to read beautiful student writing and didn't have to question if it was written by a program. Now I am forced into skepticism. How can we lose so much with advancement?

Not required reading but this is a follow-up to the Iskall85 Drama

https://rdrama.net/post/338283/man-gets-executed-for-flirting-with

https://rdrama.net/post/338501/quick-update-for-iskall85-controversy-marseybooba

Iskall85 is a famous Minecraft YouTuber who has been in controversy recently for daring to e-flirt with adult women in private (yes really)

For more info check the two attached threads above.

In addition to LITTERALLY raping women online, Iskall also has been developing his own Minecraft Modpack called Vault Hunters, which is apparently quite the unique and expansive modpack, which Iskall has claimed to have spent 'Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars in development'. Which is obviously funded by his and other collaborators YouTube series on the pack.

However in light of the recent controversy involving Iskall, The Lead Artist of the Vault Hunters Project "Kumara" has written a hit piece document on Iskall on the horrid working conditions they face.

IT IS 123 PAGES LONG OF UNHINGED BPD DRIBBLE

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1K2zSSeaUHiKZQbpWV7kGx0uI88bPupFrqIlalaUiH3c/edit?tab=t.0

Let @BussyBoy here take you through the highlights of this hilarious novella of a mental schism

PAGE 1

So as you will soon find out, this person is a fricking nut-case and as a result has been fired from their position as "Lead Art B-word", Vault Hunters has come out and stated that she's left the project and she doesn't represent them anymore... However Kumara seems to be a bit confused here on the rights of the art assets they have made already.

Somehow this b-word thinks it's illegal to publicly say they fired her, because some art of hers is still in the game. And therefore she still "represents Vault Hunters".

Listen b-word you got commissioned to make some textures, you do not suddenly own the store.

Now I want to ask you rdrama, how would you start your hit piece on someone? Lay out the simple facts you intent to prove? A brief overview?

WRONG!!!

You need to list out your mental illnesses.

Also this one is funny, I AM LITTERALLY SHAKINGG

PAY ME 3 BILLION DOLLARS NAOW

Imagine for a second your enjoying your holiday when the ArtHoe you hired to make minecraft textures such as these:

Suddenly DM's you asking for 3000 dollars

Now rightfully I'd want to question how the art you've made has taken 300 500 hours, but whatever.

Iskall doesn't fight it or challenge the figure, instead he agrees to pay her the 3k but rightfully says that "its my fault for not agreeing a price beforehand" and that he would like to instead pay per asset in the future instead of the crystal ball of whatever the frick pricing. (obviously)

HOW DARE HE! This is manipulation !!!

Immediately after this she quotes the definition of a "micro aggression" (no im not kidding lmao)

Now Iskall and the dev team is small, after all it is a MC Modpack, and Iskall is aware of this and states it clearly.

HOWEVER....

This lady then goes on to complain that Iskall uses the word "deadline" and "return on investment" which are evil business words, what a contradiction am I right! ARE YOU A BIG BUSSINESS OR NOT ISKALL!?!!?!?!?!?!?

YOU USE WORDS LIKE.... DEADLINE and..... WORK!!?!?

She thinks this is a form of gaslamping

MORE FRICKING MONEY THE GREEDY C*NT

Iskall asks the ArtHoe to just whip together a simple pack logo as the one the currently have looks bad, For those unfamiliar with Minecraft, this is an example of what his asking for

What does art how want?

3,000 USD

I WONDER WHY!!! hahahahahahaha

Trigger Warning/ Sexual Harrsement /srs

Iskall is Swedish, English is a second language to him.

it's so abundantly clear he means kitty as in kittycat.

This is genuine insanity!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now on to the lack of getting any work done at all.

given reason... You guessed it.

BONUS ROUND

She decided to trauma dump about her abuse to her boss.

Ironically Iskall reminders her that if she feels mistreated by him to let him know.

How kind and courteous of the man... I hope you dont end up writing a 123 schizo doc on him. instead of just speaking to him.

oh wait.

I didn't realize he was... le manipulating.

I would like you to pay attention to the dates here, because currently we are at Decmember 2022

Suddenly we are jumping to AUGUST 2023, 8 MONTHS LATER!

Why?? what happened in those 8 months?

(This message is from the start of the haitus)

THEY HAD A MENTAL BREAKDOWN AT HAVING TO DRAW SPRITES FOR MONEY.

And during those 8 months they did no work for Iskall, only occasionally updating him on her mental situation, with Iskall kindly asking... when are you able to do work again.... (FRICKING BUTTHOLE WHAT A FRICKING B-WORD DOESNT HE CARTE WTFTYEDWBDWD AGGHHH )

Eventually Iskall stop responding to this lady, because all she would do is fricking trauma dump to this youtuber who makes Minecraft videos, and unironically has better shit to do.

I'm not going to fill your screens with screencaps of the messages, but there are pages of them. Its fricking embarrassing.

But this one is pretty funny.

Eventually Iskall 5 months into her trauma sabbatical he asks her how things are going

She responds with a photo of her, says more about thearpy,

iskall responds "aww that sucks"

and then ghosts her again.

DO YOUR FRICKING JOB HOLY SHIT!

I need to really make this clear that there are so many fricking pages of this b-word complaining about her mental problems, and how iskall tried to comfort her at first but after months of this shit gave up and started ignoring her.

In between pages of pseudointellectual psychoanalysis of Iskall's mental state on how this is abuse. I really mean it. Check this out!

ALL OF THESE MESSEGES ARE ABOUT TRAUMA WITH NO RESPONSE.

I'm starting to think Iskall does have a problem with women,

he doesn't know when to tell them to frick off.

Also quick notice that while I've been writing this document, the hit piece I'm reading from has gone from 123 pages down to 59. IN REAL TIME.

Is this a case of schizophrenia George Lucas editing, or legal threats. Who knows.

Conclusion

I have left a lot of stuff out because it either isn't funny it is purely just deranged ramblings.

But as you can imagine Iskall eventually had enough of them not doing work within deadlines, asking exorbitant prices, and spending 8 months doing nothing so eventually was removed from the project

And despite them hit peicing Iskall specifically as the lead of the project, it seems there was a mass agreement with the rest of the devs were sick of their shit.

Literally keep yourself safe foid.

ONCE AGAIN I HAVE TO REMIND YOU ALL THAT THERE ARE STRAGGOTS READING THIS THREAD THAT WOULD STILL HAVE S*X WITH WOMEN.

SMH

I said ignore

!chuds tired of winning yet?

Holy shit what a bum

Because sometimes you'll have to contact tech support. And they'll refer to you by your stated name. And you'll have to sign off your emails with your stated name. And in my case those emails are sent from a gmail account that proudly shows my real, actual name.

No... we want to get away from this crap, not get drawn in further.

Weird that Israel is on board.

It's not weird at all. It will be American soldiers who get attacked and not the IDF. They get what they want without assuming the risk

American $$$$$$$ American lives. For a fricking sand war that will never end. NOT A FAN OF THIS BS AND WHY I TOLD EVERYONE NOT TO SIGN UP FOR THE MILITARY EVEN UNDER TRUMP.

but i thought he was the most peaceful president ever

This is dumb

We were on such a winning train until this move. Why put American lives at risk in a place full of wild muslim terrorists.

You are a scared and weak cuck.

We will bomb the crap out of Gaza and take all their resources and women and be richer and stronger than ever

surely the average joe will get richer

Can't say that I'm on board with this idea. What happened to America First?

This is America First. You're just not smart enough to understand how.

Why? What use is that shithole to us? What use are those shithole people to us? Frick that noise, let Israel deal with their own problem using their own money.

Trump tower Gaza

Lots of sleeper accounts with little to no post history yelling the loudest about this right now.

everyone i don't like is a bot

This is a brilliant decision. I know we don't want to get involved but what this is doing is daring the terrorists to frick with us. If they do anything now in the Gaza Strip we can bomb the shit out of them because we can say Iran and all those other idiots declared war on the United States.

It'll make the Democrats side with Muslim extremists and Iran and further expose them.

Which will convert Jews in the US to the Republican Party.

It will kill all Democrat fund raising except in Portland, San Francisco, and other Blue shitholes.

If us doing the peacekeeping works, congrats we've also ended all war in the Middle East.

If they attack us, we get to forcefully end the wars in the Middle East.

I don't like putting our soldiers in harm's way but this truly is the strongest deterrent to unchecked mayhem.
