EFFORTPOST Let's Play Civ4: Dawn of Civilization Cute twinks Part 4: Barbarians :marseybarbarian: and Franks :marseydeux:

We're playing the turboneurodivergent Dawn of Civilization mod for Civilization IV that replicates world history. :marseyfluffy: !g*mers !historychads

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

336AD, the Roman Empire is #1 in the world by far but the Roman Golden Age has concluded. We've just conquered Nubia. The Western Roman Empire more or less officially ended in 476AD when Odoacer deposed Romulus Augustus so we're coming up on the timeframe we're supposed to be dead.

We successfully avoided the Western Roman Empire/Eastern Roman Empire split :marseyparty: but more civilizations are going to rise and attempt to fracture off of our existing territory. The Arabs are gonna spawn with a huge butt army ready to spread Islam (which we founded already in Egypt :troll:) and the European powers are going to start cropping up.

I'll need to prepare for this and be ready to retake this shit at a moment's notice from armies leveraged against me. :marsey300:

My goal is to vassalize the European powers so I can benefit from their global colonization.


We've had a small archer regiment providing us contact with India but only now I've gotten a scout east who can pass through the Bengal rainforest to meet China. :marseyliondance:

They inexplicably hate us for existing as with everyone else in the world, but they're willing to trade. They offer jade and venison for our wine and dyes with a lil gold to sweeten the deal.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736705153yx9oC7QXSDQ4Jw.webp

They seem to be doing well but we're still #1 in the world by far. Persia is the only empire that comes close to matching us technologically - only they can research something we haven't researched yet.

Persia also has a lot of gold. :hmm: I might trade them some technology for cash at benefit to them. This will improve relations, and I have a strong espionage network going with them so if they research something I don't have I can just steal it. :marseyninja: Also, I predict the Arabs are going to BTFO them badly when they spawn.

With the money we gain from the tech trade, we can actually apply more espionage power to steal what they research. DEVIOUS! :pepedevil:

With continued espionage harassment we get our first Great Spy, Locusta*. If a civilization were far ahead of us we could send her to infiltrate for a huge boost, but as we're top dog I'll settle her in Roma for a permanent +12 espionage and small science boost that will continue throughout history. +12 is quite significant early on, so this is pretty advantageous. :ninja:

The dipshit Ethiopians continue to be difficult, despite everything we've done for them. :marseysigh: Repeated Catholic missions to them have been failures and even the Catholic presence in Aksum eventually disappears. :marseylucegenocide: They will not bend from Orthodoxy. Even more insulting is that they've now sworn fealty to Persia. :marseydisagree: It's like they think we're a threat to them. All we've done is help them out and attempt to bring them peacefully into the Catholic faith.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736711645pFgau_KCC_jDwQ.webp

Barbarians start to swarm about 400AD. The Roman Roads are a godsend as I can get my dudes quickly from one place to another as different areas get pounded. Byzantion as an espionage stronghold allows me to send spies out use the Citizenship bribery mechanic, this felt like a gimmick but it's actually super useful here. Just like irl I'm able to pay off the huns to spare Constantinople :marseyquadmagyar: + I get free Hunnic Horse Archers to fight back with :marseyhorsemanconquest:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736701861z91Arafa3q6i6w.webp

Did you know a !foidmoment almost caused the fall of Rome? In the 400s Valentinian III had a complete :marseyfoidretard: for a sister named Honoria. She was notorious for fricking and sucking around the Imperial palace and Valentinian graciously attempted to set her up with a nice senator while he was attempting to fend off the pillaging of hunnic warlord Attila. Honoria was pissed off by this and wrote a gushy love letter to Attila the Hun out of spite.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736702006eb0wFa1PLD9HMw.webp

The Meeting of Leo the Great and Attila by Raphael

Attila interpreted this letter as a marriage proposal and invaded Italy directly aiming to claim the seat of Rome, which he felt he gained a rightful claim to. Pope Leo I the Great met with Attila personally and somehow persuaded him to back off.


https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736707290Gb0x2wHTB_9cWQ.webp

Our stability is okay, but definitely starting to dip. Okay is not good enough for what's coming. As always, military and foreign trickle down with the rest of the world being buttholes and barbarians up in our shit. Economy and expansion are not booming anymore.

Our treasury is doing alright but could be improved (right now we're running 40% research funding). Domestic could be improved easily with some civic changes.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736707290ICSwEbFG-vStMg.webp

We've researched Feudalism and now have another Legitimacy civic available to us. We don't have much reason to run Citizenship at this point, other than bribing barbarians, but our military is now spread out enough to deal with them. Vassalage is lower upkeep with compatibility with Thalassocracy. This + the unit upkeep will get us about 30 more GP per turn. We also change to Caste System like we should have ages ago, since Slavery is outdated.


https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736721579pcqz2V1rPWRc4Q.webp

Last time I won by researching "Civil Service" first, completing the final historic victory condition. I undid this so that I could attempt a Space victory instead. We're getting to a point where I'm running out of shit to research OTHER than Civil Service and the Sassanids, our only near-equal won't research it either :marseyannoyed:

This is kinda funny and forcing me to do things differently. I'm going to discover Gunpowder much earlier than I thought and get stronger artillery. "Civil Service" obsoletes our Legion so I have 100s more of those running around (which is good, they're based). But these slackers really need to research it soon so I can fail :marseywait:

I'll have to help these idiots out a little and sell them another tech at an absurdly generous price.

~472-480AD Ostrogoths pop up right outside Rome. I think this is meant to represent Odacer or Theodoric, right on schedule. The precision put into this mod is :marseychefkiss:

I wasn't expecting this but I have knights (Lancers) in Roma at this point :marseychessknight:

The game does not appreciate that I survived Theodoric. Charlemagne and France spawn as an independent kingdom, taking Paris away from us.

France's doomstack is defeated by my gigadoomstack and I recapture Clermont. France cannot capitulate for some reason :hmm: Probably a DoC thing for new civilizations. I don't remember all the rules. I think once "Rise of the French" ends they can become a vassal. I don't want to annihilate them, my goal is to have them become a vassal and take advantage of their colonization. For now, I've taken back a city, taken out their army and shown them who's boss.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736724104DZV5li8KrkmCxQ.webp

I'm fine with just holding Clermont as it gives me foot access to Iberia. I just need to get Roman culture flowing fast.

This will be the first of many as new civs start to spawn.

indigenous woman who is also a vidya designer, on the "indigenous" section on CBC:

Neighbor why are "indigenous" and "aboriginal" activist foids always like the Whitest motherlovers on the planet? :marseyxdorbit:

When the video game Custer's Revenge first came out more than 30 years ago, a successful boycott eventually caused it to be pulled from store shelves The controversial video game, made for the Atari 2600 by Mystique (now defunct), depicts indigenous women tied to trees and cacti and r*ped.

https://external-preview.redd.it/til-in-1982-a-game-called-custers-revenge-was-released-for-v0-6WyhtVQFAC-f5KhVztxZMVzJpBJRTfNOCrdRDnRRwb0.jpg?auto=webp&s=34f410f92f86a2bcdd3db36d7d54e8c1dae66a2c

When indigenous game designer Elizabeth LaPensΓ©e found out this game was again available for play online she took to Twitter to voice her outrage.

"The game reinforces systemic violence against native women," said LaPensΓ©e.

Daniel Starkey, a Chickashsha Nation game journ*list, was researching a story about Native American representation in games when he came across YouTube videos of Custer's Revenge. Starkey spoke with LaPensΓ©e about his find. The two of them were able to find several game-play footage videos on YouTube, but it wasn't until Starkey dug deeper that he actually found a playable link to a remade version of the game.

"I'm not in a position to go to that link, download it and play it. I don't know how far back that would put me in my personal healing," said LaPenΕ›ee from her home in Oregon. But Starkey did download the game to prove that it can be played.

"[It] made me sick to my stomach and brought me to tears," said Starkey. "I respect its right to exist, but it's almost impossible for me to figure out how anyone could consider the game of cultural value to anyone." :marseyfrozenchosen2:

B-WORD THIS IS A FRICKING ATARI GAME FROM 1982

1 9 8 2

IT WAS ALREADY BOYCOTTED WHEN IT CAME OUT

THE COMPANY THAT MADE IT DOESN'T EXISTS ANYMORE

THE DEVS WHO CREATED IT ARE IN THEIR 70S OR 80S IF THEY ARE STILL ALIVE

ARE YOU GONNA CALL FOR THE BOYCOTT OF SALΓ’ AND ERASERHEAD NEXT? :#bruh:

LaPensΓ©e is a former game journ*list turned game designer. Until now, LaPensΓ©e had not spoken out against violence against women in video games. The gaming industry has come under fire for its sexual harassment against women and female game designers and journ*lists have had their safety and lives threatened.

LaPensΓ©e said she has stayed quiet for this very reason.

"If anyone were to attack me in that way, I just don't have the allies in the game industry who would help protect me and look out for me, I have the native community too," said LaPensΓ©e.

For me stepping out isn't just about the game industry, it's about personal experiences and having to be the voice of someone who is part of a statistic, that a game like this is reinforcing what creates that statistic.

  • Elizabeth LaPensΓ©e, video game designer

LaPensΓ©e, who designs games that promote indigenous heritage and healing, said her decision to speak out now is based on her career's work.

"This has been my whole life's work, starting off as a g*mer and then looking at native representation in video games. And finding the places that we can step up, and step in and define our representations ourselves," said LaPensΓ©e.

"For me stepping out isn't just about the game industry, it's about personal experiences and having to be the voice of someone who is part of a statistic, that a game like this is reinforcing what creates that statistic."

In the last 24 hours, since LaPensΓ©e`s initial tweet and the follow-up Twitter conversation, several videos of game-play footage have been taken down. Starkey added the footage violates YouTube's terms of service by containing explicit content and uncensored nudity.

LaPensΓ©e said that even though a game like this exists, the indigenous community can change the narrative by replacing the content with positive messages.

"We can make games too. We're completely capable of it. The cowtools are much more accessible, the technology is much more accessible than it used to be," said LaPensΓ©e, adding a lot of her work is responding to a game like this.

Holy fricking shit, imagine sperging out about a game that was 31 years old (now 41) by the time this article was written, this is even more pathetic than the Brapzilian Pentecostal TV channel in 2011 sperging out against Duke Nukem 3D :marseyxdorbit:, this is like if Jack Thompson came back from the shadows and started to shit on Doom and Doom 2 30 years later :shyyt:

One Punch Man's latest Chapter is a Redraw of a Redraw :marseyxd:

Introduction

Y'all remember the smash hit One Punch Man (OPM) in the mid to late '10s? The persiflage of the entire shounen genre as an invincible but bored superhero defeats all enemies with just one punch? Filled with other nonsensical characters like the strongest man on earth who's essentially the weakest man alive or the guy whose basically just a male feminist (male feminist) in real life? Anyways, that shit is still going strong but I've to elaborate here, OPM is based on a shitty drawn but sovlful webcomic by ONE, which in turn got adapted into an official (tm) manga with much better art by MURATA. The thingy got picked up as an anime and rose to immense popularity. Naturally, the original tone of the comic has been lost as it essentially became what it was making fun of - but that's a given for japanese "writers" as they're all whiny or talentless hacks or a combination of the aforementioned - except Fukumoto he's bae(sed). Anyway, OPM has always had a terrible release schedule but lately it's gotten so disgusting that even long-time fans are dropping the series.


Context

To reiterate, here's the release schedule of the original comic (ONE):

https://i.redd.it/ehtxw2nvxbfe1.png

while lazy he managed something

Here's what Murata has managed to draw after late 2023:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1737900944zSoKM_Y1MkL99w.webp

You may notice the Retconned tag after some chapters. And yes, it's exactly like you are thinking. He draws those chapters, releases them, and then later decides he isn't happy with the chapter (or the entire arc) and revisions all of it while making slight adjustments. Anyway, the latest chapter is a redraw of an already redrawn chapter originally released in 2023 featuring a filler side story of a filler arc. So basically the entirety of chapters released in 2024 are retconned - people don't like this ... at all:


Drama

/r/OnePunchMan

This sub can be insufferable

I love OPM, I love all the stupid drama over which wiafu is best (they're cartoons and y'all are weird), I love the characters and story, I love the art. But the thing is we are getting a product for free here, and early. We don't have to wait for the Manga to get released, we don't have to wait for the finalized product to be able to read what's going on. We literally get a look behind the curtain as this is being made. And part of that process is fixing work that they felt needed to be fixed. Who's to blame? Murata? One? Who cares. It's their work. I'll complain about redraws when I have to rebuy my physical mangas because there's an updated version. It's not done until it's been printed and released. It feels like people are acting privileged and entitled because One released his content online, and now they assume they deserve access to finalized and completed content at our convenience. It will be done when they say it's done. Can we just enjoy what we have in the meantime?

https://old.reddit.com/r/OnePunchMan/comments/1i8rbxz/this_sub_can_be_insufferable/m8vtavd/?context=8

I'd argue that trying to pretend that deleting 14 month of progress out of nowhere is completely fine is far more insufferable.

This isn't a look behind the curtains. It's officially released chapters that also gets official translations. No other series even remotely com close to this mess so of course there is nothing wrong about pointing it out.

Another moment of silence for the poor fools read the official version of OPM on VIZ's app. Because VIZ doesn't translate redrawings.

It is fine? That's how the creative process works sometimes

Literally no other manga series does that.

https://old.reddit.com/r/OnePunchMan/comments/1i8rbxz/this_sub_can_be_insufferable/m8vsw9i/?context=8

why make us wait a whole year for a promised move forward in this story and then throw it all away? Its not us being ungrateful but if Murata truly wants quality for this manga he ought to take his time rather than rush and give us half-assed butchered storylines and retcon it constantly

What you don't understand is you're not the audience. :marseyxd:

He is getting it right, and the version he wants is what will actually make it into the volume.

He is the audience. Fans like him are the reason why OPM got an official English physicals in the first place. His opinion will be valid if he says it in Japanese or so? That's just silly. He's still a supporting fan, and he could buy the physical manga just like any Japanese fan could. That's a narrow way of looking at it. Every fan contributes to the series' success.

DISC One Punch Man Chapter 195 - 2nd Revision

To be entirely precise, we were at chapter 195 in November 2023. We're in January 2025 and we're now at chapter 195. A whole year thrown away.

https://old.reddit.com/r/manga/comments/1ia11m5/disc_one_punch_man_chapter_195_2nd_revision/m96wrxa/?context=8

Ngl the constant redraws have killed my excitement for this series. Doesn't help that I personally think the story gets worse with each version (just my own opinion)

Simple redraws or changes to the pacing is one thing, but changing the literal plot or direction is too far. It feels like that they don't have a vision for the manga and is just drawing whatever they feel works, which they then don't stick to and subsequently and in my opinion wastes my time and attention.

https://old.reddit.com/r/manga/comments/1ia11m5/disc_one_punch_man_chapter_195_2nd_revision/m96oshu/?context=8

This manga fell off so hard, it really needs to be studied. Being so utterly clueless in what direction you want to take the story that you have to rewrite an arc for a third time. Just copy paste the webcomic at this point.

The funny thing is the defenders of the comic on the main subreddit

Well, it's easy to find defenders when the powertripping mods on there will parma ban anybody even remotely stating something negative about the manga.

https://old.reddit.com/r/manga/comments/1ia11m5/disc_one_punch_man_chapter_195_2nd_revision/m97n48e/?context=8

OPM is genuinely starting to feel like an afterthought with both of its artists at this point.

I know Murata has that animation project he's working on, and ONE seems occupied with Versus and Bug Ego.

Deleting an entire year's worth of chapters, after having already done a complete 180 on the direction of the climax of the most pivotal arc of the series, is actually mental.

What's the point of reading any of this if it can just be retconned whenever ONE or Murata feel like it?

And the people that are on maximum strength copium trying to justify this shit by saying it's some sort of meta-level 4th wall interference by God to prevent his will from being hindered by the plot are just hilarious. Yes, it's totally that and not just blatant mismanagement and confusion by the creators as to where they want to take the narrative.

First Reading

In the year King Uzziah died,

I saw the Lord seated on a high and lofty throne,

with the train of his garment filling the temple.

Seraphim were stationed above.

They cried one to the other,

"Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts!

All the earth is filled with his glory!"

At the sound of that cry, the frame of the door shook

and the house was filled with smoke.

Then I said, "Woe is me, I am doomed!

For I am a man of unclean lips,

living among a people of unclean lips;

yet my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts!"

Then one of the seraphim flew to me,

holding an ember that he had taken with tongs from the altar.

He touched my mouth with it, and said,

"See, now that this has touched your lips,

your wickedness is removed, your sin purged."

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying,

"Whom shall I send? Who will go for us?"

"Here I am," I said; "send me!"

-Isaiah 6:1-2a, 3-8

Responsorial Psalm

R. (1c) In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord.

I will give thanks to you, O LORD, with all my heart,

for you have heard the words of my mouth;

in the presence of the angels I will sing your praise;

I will worship at your holy temple

and give thanks to your name.

R. In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord.

Because of your kindness and your truth;

for you have made great above all things

your name and your promise.

When I called, you answered me;

you built up strength within me.

R. In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord.

All the kings of the earth shall give thanks to you, O LORD,

when they hear the words of your mouth;

and they shall sing of the ways of the LORD:

"Great is the glory of the LORD."

R. In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord.

Your right hand saves me.

The LORD will complete what he has done for me;

your kindness, O LORD, endures forever;

forsake not the work of your hands.

R. In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord.

-Psalms 138:1-2, 2-3. 4-5. 7-8

Second Reading

I am reminding you, brothers and sisters,

of the gospel I preached to you,

which you indeed received and in which you also stand.

Through it you are also being saved,

if you hold fast to the word I preached to you,

unless you believed in vain.

For I handed on to you as of first importance what I also received:

that Christ died for our sins

in accordance with the Scriptures;

that he was buried;

that he was raised on the third day

in accordance with the Scriptures;

that he appeared to Cephas, then to the Twelve.

After that, Christ appeared to more

than five hundred brothers at once,

most of whom are still living,

though some have fallen asleep.

After that he appeared to James,

then to all the apostles.

Last of all, as to one born abnormally,

he appeared to me.

For I am the least of the apostles,

not fit to be called an apostle,

because I persecuted the church of God.

But by the grace of God I am what I am,

and his grace to me has not been ineffective.

Indeed, I have toiled harder than all of them;

not I, however, but the grace of God that is with me.

Therefore, whether it be I or they,

so we preach and so you believed.

-1 Corinthians 15:1-11

Alleluia

R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Come after me

and I will make you fishers of men.

R. Alleluia, alleluia.

-Matthew 4:19

Gospel

While the crowd was pressing in on Jesus and listening

to the word of God,

he was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret.

He saw two boats there alongside the lake;

the fishermen had disembarked and were washing their nets.

Getting into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon,

he asked him to put out a short distance from the shore.

Then he sat down and taught the crowds from the boat.

After he had finished speaking, he said to Simon,

"Put out into deep water and lower your nets for a catch."

Simon said in reply,

"Master, we have worked hard all night and have caught nothing,

but at your command I will lower the nets."

When they had done this, they caught a great number of fish

and their nets were tearing.

They signaled to their partners in the other boat

to come to help them.

They came and filled both boats

so that the boats were in danger of sinking.

When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at the knees of Jesus and said,

"Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man."

For astonishment at the catch of fish they had made seized him

and all those with him,

and likewise James and John, the sons of Zebedee,

who were partners of Simon.

Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid;

from now on you will be catching men."

When they brought their boats to the shore,

they left everything and followed him.

-Luke 5:1-11

"Woe is me, I am doomed! For I am a man of unclean lips, living among a people of unclean lips; yet my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts!"

"Last of all, as to one born abnormally, he appeared to me. For I am the least of the apostles, not fit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God."

"When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at the knees of Jesus and said, "Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man.""

Isaiah, Peter, and Paul, three extremely holy men, all said they were unholy and unworthy. This is very humble of them, admitting that any grace they have is a gift from God, but it's also a teaching example. You don't have to be perfect to share the Gospel; the Good News are still good when coming from a bad person. A common question I see here is "how can you be preaching about Catholicism on rdrama of all places? Good Christians shouldn't have anything to do with this site." While it may be true that good Christians shouldn't be here, it's certainly better to be here and share your Christianity than to be here and not do so.

the dejenerate podcast - how to become talented 14:54

  • it's been cold in the domicile. He took off his outerware while cooking, but then he got too fricking cold. He's been getting into brushing his teeth lately. He then describes how the proteins and enzymes and shit causing him to warm back up cause feelings of melancholy and shit because there's not enough enzymes left to produce dopamine

  • 0:50 He shows off his pokemon shirt :marseysurprisedpikachu:. It came with another t-shirt that was like brain break

  • 1:30 He asked in the fam chat what their favorite pokemons were. Mum doesn't know and jinxsisters didn't respond.

  • 1:55 Actual facts, Jinxthinker played pokemon in the past but it didn't produce orgasmic feelings because they're animals. Fact is Jinxthinker is highly skilled at all video games :marseygamer:

  • 2:20 He relapsed on Elden Ring for 15 minutes :marseyitsover:. He had the revelation that people who think they're good are often playing with high latency and would get r*ped on low latency.

  • 2:45 He was watching an EU IV stream and the streamer's country was being r*ped.

  • 3:00 He found a libertarian guy (www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-48830780) with a foot fetishist who went to the cinema to touch children. He's Hitler's favorite Nazi. We examine his ghostly apparition and disfigured mouth/nose. He also has a cochlear implant because he's deaf. Dumbo might be significant.

  • 4:30 Jinxthinker has never delved into foot fetishism, it's on the same level as libertarianism.

  • 5:00 Goes into the genealogy of libertarianism/western civilization. This is somehow connected to foot fetishism and Dumbo. :realisticelephant:

  • 6:00 Explains how you can't frick a foot. Discusses breast size.

  • 7:05 More AI pictures, with goth woman licking feet as an experiment. It's okay if the woman is being humiliated and the foot isn't the essential sexual/arousing element. :carpwhip:

  • 7:55 Choses a song so he can practice being a good singer. Needs to change the song because this is too hardcore; he's also good at rapping. :marseygucci:

  • 8:40-10:50 Changes the song finally. It's the singer that sounds like he has a speech impediment and drones that he likes. :marseygigaretard:

  • 10:50 it's okay to jerk off to aliens if they're female and have a vagina, right. :alienfinger:

  • 11:00 He talks like a southerner about father time. People age in a chronological fashion. Here's the deal, children are ugly but they become better like a caterpillar -> butterfly transformation. This makes libertarians angry when father time turns children to adults. This is how you know libertarians are r-slurred, because you can love to adult women your whole life. :marseytime:

  • 13:10 One of the badass characters on Lost smokes, but Jinxmother says jinxthinker isn't allowed to smoke. Oh well. :marseycool2:

  • 13:40 Shows off his empty Monster cans. Talks about how it's cool to put the empties in your bed under the duvet when you're sleeping and crush them in your bed. (This reminded me of Jimmy on King of the Hill who wants to smash the cans)

  • 14:00 Goes back to Father Time beating libertarians without missing a beat. He heard someone talking about ??? and it's r-slurred; somehow this is related to selling coke in Hogwarts like Breaking Bad :marseywalterwhite:

!jinxthinkers If any of you can figure out what that last minute was about, that would be great.

:#marseyokaycoke:

Not trying to play devils advocate for a racist weirdo, but how are you sure? Not trying to argue, just curious what gave it away.

This is, of course, assuming it's the OK hand gesture. If it's something less obscure, the answer is self explanatory

He was taking a selfie in the mirror. The hand that was at his side was doing the white power gesture. Hands do not naturally fall like that… so no.

EDIT: Hinge has actually emailed me to say they've taken action against him, so I'm not mistaken as you're inferring.

Her previous posts indicate she absolutely hates men, but is having trouble finding her disney prince on dating apps because they all love hitler. :tayshrug:

!goyslopenjoyers revolt when one slopper calls for x links to be banned

These are all upmarseyd and all aside from 1 pro-ban comment is downvored, idk what they're putting in the slop but it's turning the !goyslopenjoyers into !chuds

Are there even X links posted to this sub? I did a quick look and couldn't find any

No there are not, but it wont stop people from downmarseying you.


I heard that Musk was so upset about r/stupidfood blocking X that he changed his mind and is now Jewish.

Its virtue signaling. Ppl like being part of the mob. Makes them feel like they're part of something. I agree with you. Don't need a policy for it. It's laughable. Ppl take themselves too serious over the internet. We're taking about stupid foods here.

The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi

You're not doing anything by going around Reddit saying nazis are bad. I know it probably feels like you're in the streets punching Nazis whenever you post these comments but you're just being obnoxious and come off as a virtue signaling weirdo.


Lame. This shit is killing Reddit. Here's a newsflash - China invested in Reddit and they have actual slaves. So, be consistent and ban yourself or sit down.

Frick off. We all know this is some political bullshit that would be forgotten in 5 minutes if people could just stop whining for that long.


And of course, the mod's response:

Way ahead of you, we're just finding the best way to go about that
