Sucking yourself up from your own penis is the new pulling yourself up by your bootstraps.

Okay, but have you considered that the 90% of those 1.3B Chinese residents who like their government and want to keep it are simply brainwashed, ignorant, or stupid?

Silly tank E. The thought police, which are totally real (trust me bro), will come after any who dare express dissent. This is why we enlightened westerners with our Enlightenment(TM) values need to support the US invasion of China across the Taiwan Strait while also pretending it was actually China who struck first (just like the heckin' unwholesome Vietcong 😡 did at the Gulf of Tonkin) and that Taiwan is actually a sovereign state fighting off an imperialist invader instead of a puppet government for the wholesome keanu chungus defenders of democracy.

Slobber Tie Won! Down with Zizzy Ping!

Authoritarianism is when you're a dick. Stepping in to use authority to deal with someone who's being a dick? Somehow not authoritarian.

The gang's all here.

People being able to breath makes it much easier absorb new information, even malicious information. Allowing people to breath is a plot by the reds to propagandize to God fearing Americans. My grandfather never breathed in his life; his brain oxygen levels were so low that the pinkos were never able to reach him with their lies.

Maybe if a socialist wins an election in the US, the US will overthrow the US 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

The "socialism for the rich" talking point and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

Yeah, they totally ran protestors over with tanks. You can even see it in the full tank man video.

Oh, huh, that's weird. He didn't get run over. It even seems like the tanks are trying to avoid him. Maybe the perfidious chicoms are the ones who are telling the truth and it's our free and fair liberal press who are lying 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔.

I've never heard of that and have been working as a professional code monkey for over 7 years at this point.

Imperial core drones in the comments be like

I fucking wish epics were planned to be done over 5 years. I'm lucky if it's a year long one where I work, and my employer seems less shitty regarding this compared to the horror stories I hear from team mates who worked at other companies.

Before the assassination, I just knew him as the tiny face chud with Turning Point USA who spewed insipid talking points to "own" the left.

If you've seen him before, it was probably in a meme like this.

Just happened to wrap up a lancer campaign today.

🤓 Erm, ackshually, a natural 20 only increases the degree of success by one. This means, for example, if someone rolls a 20 on an attack roll, the total with modifiers is 28, and the defender's AC is 30, the attack will be bumped up from a failure to a normal success, not a critical success. 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓

In a campaign I'm in, my party had to investigate a region outside of a city that was giving off malicious vibes. We ended up finding the source of the vibes and discovered that a member of the city's 5 person ruling council is collaborating with mindflayers to sacrifice the city. The party makes its way back to the city and wants to figure out how to present that information while still remaining credible. It really didn't help that we accidentally killed the captain of the guard who was sent with us to investigate (some of us rolled critical failures on attack rolls while fighting earth elementals and ended up hitting him for a lot of damage instead, and then he got crushed by a rolling boulder trap).

When we went in front of the council and other townfolk to present our findings, we hit an additional snag when we discovered that we need to present our findings while standing in a circle that allows the compromised council member to read our minds. Our paladin had a bright idea; she put the thought of the treachery we uncovered at the front of her mind and cast Command at the evil council member with the word "confess". The councilor failed his saving throw, but the DM didn't want us to get out of it that easily. The dramatic order captured everyone's attention and someone asked the council member what he had to say. "I... I... I... sometimes wear women's underwear". While surprising to the townsfolk, it was ultimately irrelevant to the them, and the council quickly (albeit not incorrectly) pinned the death of the guard captain on us.

The evil council member got to cover his ass while putting heat on the party and guards started swarming the room to arrest us. All but one of the party members managed to get away, and there was a several week period of time where the one who got caught was separated from the party and had to roleplay a jailbreak.

Bordiga in the same tier as Parenti.
