In both my experiences, once the “main group” left, there were people more aligned towards… non “allowed” “methods of liberation”.

I can tell you went to neither. You say you can’t talk online because it is too dangerous, but also won’t go to the concentration of people angry for the same reasons to talk about it. Is your plan to be a lone wolf? Because one asshole with a good drone that wipes out even ideally, like, musk, bezos, zuck, trump, 5 supreme court justices, hegseth, vance, thiel, you still haven’t solved it if you were a lone asshole with a lucky drone. The problem is more systemic. Continuing pressure is necessary. Groups. Organization, which begins somewhere.

Almost like getting together with other outraged people, like perhaps at a protest, would be a better place to meet people with whom to discuss those plans? Or do we just want resistance cells to spontaneously generate from the aether without any prior networking?

In a way they are. They spread there nihilistic apathy like a disease.

Probably just being friendly.

The conservative sub is pretty astroturfed actually. There was one point when some servers in Russia went down and basically all their activity disappeared. Also most of the content is like 2 guys who mod the sub.

Have you ever played nuclear throne? That’s kinda my preferred pacing in a game, but there aren’t many. I’d love a soulslike where combat was that fast and frantic, and bosses are really difficult but also die really fast if you play it right.

so I’m not sure I know what you mean.

I was mostly basing it on videos I’ve watched. I haven’t actually played it. I’d kind of consider any fight that lasts more than 10 minutes to be well into bullet sponge territory though.

Having a stance meter instead of healthbars sounds pretty interesting though, I think I’ll check it out.

What ecosystem collapses when removing a single creature? Are you talking about modern ecosystems? Or pre-holoscene extinction ecosystems? Because one is a lot more robust than the other.

How bullet spongey are enemies? One of the reasons I have avoided eldenring is because it looks that every mob has a million HP.

Every time I try a newer Civ title, I end up just going back and doing a Civ IV playthough.
