Why? If I’m a mechanic and upgrade a car that someone else made you wouldn’t care at all. I’ve always thought it was crazy that people act so entitled to software being free.
Hell cyberpunk itself wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for decades of work by Windows and console devs. Everything is built on top of someone else’s work so I don’t buy that as a reason for modders to go uncompensated.
You clearly don’t understand how hypocritical this is. We coerced Europe into being this way. It’s only in the last 10-15 years or so that we started asking them to contribute more militarily.
Our strategy against the Soviets was for Europe to hold them off while the US brought over an expeditionary force that would push the Soviets back. Europe would provide most of the financial support.
Now some Americans are acting like they ripped us off. Just more backstabbing fake grievance bullshit designed to slander democracies because democracy and pluralism are the enemy now.
From a pure realpolitik point if view, alienating Europe while they’re beginning their next rearmament era is a pretty fucking stupid move. They have three times our population and it wasn’t that long ago that Europe had the strongest militaries in the world. If they reach that point again the US will not be the global hegemon anymore and Americans won’t like that because we’ve benefited from it economically. Though at this point it’s very clear the world is better off with saner hegemony under other countries.
We’ll be falling behind China in science and engineering soon enough too. China, the EU and various middle powers are all making moves to fill the soft power hole left by the current administration. All because dipshit magas only believe in hard power and bullying people like cavemen.
Guaranteed they’re lying. They’re just trying to act like it doesn’t matter that they murdered him because he was trying to kill himself anyway.
Murtry had more principles than this guy. You know this clown won’t hesitate to throw his own people under the bus if it comes down to that.
Then why haven’t they done it yet? They’ve had a year and it hasn’t happened.
Not realistic either. They’re already treating leftist NGOs like terrorist organizations, and private militias are technically illegal but those laws are conveniently not enforced against the far right (people have already tried to create leftist militias), so any attempt to do this would have to be fully underground. And you are up against the world’s most advanced military and police state, so good luck with that.
We’ve dug ourselves a real hole in the US, none of this stuff happened overnight. I don’t see a way out of this other than sustained political and civil resistance as seen in Hungary, who haven’t succeeded yet even after 20 years.
You think the feds will just let states beef up state guards now? It’s too late for that. And it would take years for anything meaningful to happen.
Americans were happy to give the president all kinds of insane powers over the last 80 years, and now we’re dealing with the consequences. Some of the worst shit Trump is doing is actually legal (def not all of course), thanks to braindead chauvinistic Americans in this country, who’ve always loved empowering strongman figures and law enforcement.
9/11 exposed how ugly and hypocritical the true American “spirit” is. That’s when many of these powers were born, especially the stupid ICE and border bullshit.
What would be the point? Trump can just instantly federalize them and then use them against you.
Anyone who thinks we’re getting out of this through some kind of military action is delusional. We don’t have the resources to stand up to the military and the massive police state in this country, that’s just a fact. That’s not even include all the wingnut traitor militias out there.
If we ever get back in power then we need to strip the presidency of most of its powers (after we destroy maga and their billionaires and media apparatus via the DOJ) and return control of the NG back to the states.
The president shouldn’t be able to seize those units unilaterally without permission from the state governor/legislature. That defeats the entire point of having state militias.
Lol as if this money will go to us. Trump will pocket it for himself just like he’s doing with Venezuela.
Stop conceded to the fascists. The elections are run by the states. How are they going to “cancel” elections when there are thousands of local offices holding elections this year?
OP’s poll doesn’t say anything about military action. It just asks whether the US should try to acquire Greenland.
The Qunnipiac poll shows that when the question explicitly includes military action, opposition is 86%: https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/us-voters-widely-opposed-taking-greenland-military-force/story?id=129280864

When you get deep into niche stuff like this, Linux is such a pain in the ass. I like it for casual use and even some gaming but I’m not going to lie, a lot of hobbyist stuff is just so much easier on Mac or Windows. Which makes sense since Linux isn’t in widespread use by normies and also isn’t a desktop-first OS.
Even on Ubuntu I had to use the terminal pretty frequently. Older games especially are a big PITA to get working sometimes.
Why do you neckbeards constantly lie so aggressively about this? That post exactly describes every single Linux migration I’ve ever done. You WILL end up in the terminal at some point, and you will find apps and games that just don’t work well in Linux.
They’re just as stupid as magats. How are they going to fight the most powerful military on the planet, with the largest police state backing that military up?
That is not going to happen. I’m sick of these keyboard agitators everywhere trying to stir up violence. That’s exactly what this regime wants. And if shit hits the fan you know none of these cowards will walk the walk. It’s so easy to bitch about what other people should be doing from the comfort of your home.
Please explain to me how the federal government can cancel elections that are run by the states.
How is saying that we “won’t have midterms” anything but lying down and taking it up the ass in advance? You’ve already given up and it’s only January.
I wish you doomers would go back to reddit.
How is it not fair? Cyberpunk is the platform for their mod just like Windows or PlayStation is the platform for Cyberpunk. Everything we do is built on someone else’s work.
