^ this. I’ve lived in other countries. Lots of Americans would benefit from traveling or living abroad. Nationalism is silly, and gets weaponized by the ruling class.

Yeah man, it’s woke bullshit! Not the fact that good games are few and far between now, or that people buy them digitally, or that the PC is growing its market share. It’s DEI!!!

Putin has kompromat on Musk. I guarantee it.

He seemed highly focused on USAID initially. USAID is a means to assert soft power around the world through the influencing of hearts and minds.

Elon’s strong ties to Trump combined with this focus reek of Putin’s influence to me. He’s doing Russia’s bidding in deconstructing our government.

I think Musk is likely compromised in the same way Trump is. God, it must be some truly nefarious shit too.

I’m definitely not one of those GamerGate dorks. DA:V was a 100% day one but for me, as someone who enjoyed DA:I. However, after seeing some gameplay and dialogue, I lost interest. It looks and sounds like a Disney game. I understand if EA was moving toward capturing a segment of younger gamers with this entry in the series, but it didn’t seem like it was for me. I still plan to try it, but only once it’s on sale for significantly less than retail price.

Oh, didn’t want to stick around and deal with the bonfire he helped start?

Yes, since the 80s when the FSB took an interest in him. They likely have tons of kompromat on him. I can’t believe so many people in America cannot see it for what it is.

I believe he is beholden to him by way of blackmail. Remember the Steele Dossier.

Steele was first to warn that Russia was mounting a covert operation to elect Donald Trump. Fusion GPS – his partners in Washington DC – have called this the dossier's 'foundational initial assertion' and it was correct. Much later, the Mueller inquiry would state that 'the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome.' Steele wrote about what was happening as early as June 2016...The US intelligence agencies...did not publish their findings until December 2016, too late to prevent the effort to influence the election.

Why would that have happened?

Admiration is not the same as blackmailed.

There is an ad-free tier for Hulu that they just announced will have ads in it. You cannot make this shit up.
