If you ever feel like doing a second playthrough (the side quests and DLCs are fun) then train with captain Bernard, the captain in Ratttay, he teaches you some combos and blocks that make combat a whole lot more manageable.

Probably just paying them to stay on message about Ukraine and stop rambling about random culture war issues like alleged elementary school litter boxes.

This is not chemical warfare…

The only one committing chemical warfare in Ukraine right now is Russia. You probably wouldn’t know about that though.

than 50% of the US realizes there’s still an embargo.

Oh trust me, enough of the Republican base still remembers it enough to screech any time there’s any talk of ending it.

Skyblivion actually has a confirmed release date in 2025 already.

Nice misinformation Vatnik.

More weapons than money, but yes that’s what you have to do when your country is being invaded and you don’t have the industrial base to suddenly build an army from nowhere.

Yes, the man who has been leading his country in a war for survival and winning is the real clown! /s

The Vice President actually doesn’t use the White House as their official residence.

Ignorant American here, are any of the parties in Brazil trying to defend Maduro? I was very surprised to see even Lula take a stand against him.

It’s like the inverse of American exceptionalism,

Yes that’s definitely it. It’s people who have heard the stupid overly-patriotic American exceptionalism “America can do no wrong”, they know it’s obviously not true and so they switch to the reverse position of “America does all wrong” like it’s somehow more true.

During times of war it legally is.

wolves just kept eating our waste

You may wanna edit this to say trash, it sounds like you’re saying wolves followed us around eating our shit, which afaik isn’t a theory for dog domestication.

Yeah, by manpower Germany’s was definitely larger, by budget though, our annual military spending blows theirs out of the water.

At the height of the war, Germany spent about 380 billion dollars adjusted for inflation to the year 2021

In 2021, the U.S. spent about 700 billion dollars on it’s military.

Though to be fair, the U.S. has a lot more of an economy and population to work with and isn’t investing nearly as much, far more was spent on the military by Germany as a percentage of their GDP, and their military had more people per capita than the U.S. does today.

There’s all sorts of reasons being unionized could help create a better product.

Hopefully it means less insane crunch but it’s still up to the higher ups to say “ok good enough” and release before it’s polished right?

Yes you’re correct, but the union beyond just meaning less crunch, also means that the average worker has more pathways to be vocal about problems with the product. They also now have a “nuclear option” of going on strike if management makes a decision regarding the product that the union really doesn’t like.

Beyond all that though, even just basic stuff like job satisfaction/happiness at your job, can lead to a better product in creative industries, and unions are proven to lead to happier workers.

but it was definitely the biggest.

If we only want to overthrow leftists because of economic resources.

Then why has the Biden administration kept good relations with the socialist president of Chile, one of the world’s largest producers of cobalt, instead of overthrowing him like we did with Allende?

Why did Biden save Brazil, an oil producing nation, and it’s socialist president from a fascist coup?

It’s not even a leftist thing, the U.S. opposes right-wing power grabs and coups abroad as well, and has for at least two decades.

Plenty of revolutions have happened, before, during, and after the Cold War without U.S. support, the U.S. actively opposed the breakup of the Soviet Union for example, and yet it happened, and several democracies were created from it’s downfall, with little influence from the U.S.

dictators without the U.S. funding them FTFY

Even if the U.S. government did regularly fund protests/resistance against dictatorships, why would that be a bad thing? As long as it’s not singlehandedly deciding on regime change like in Iraq, I don’t see anything morally wrong with supporting pro-democracy causes within dictatorships.

You may be joking, but that’s pretty much the attitude of the Ukrainian Intelligence Services at the moment, there’s no point in sending well trained operatives into a meat grinder on the eastern front, much more efficient to just let them go around the world hunting the Russian Intelligence Services

"HUR Chief Kyrylo Budanov vowed to “destroy Russian war criminals anywhere in the world, wherever they are.”
