Lula is no saint. His party is involved in a ton of corruption schemes. The last 4 years saw the economy in "stagflation": low growth, high inflation, high interest rates. People don't see any meaningful change in the past 4 years.

If Lula's party (worker's party) didn't suppress the other left parties in the last 20 years, there would be a viable alternative. The election now is like 5 candidates from th right, each worse than the other, vs Lula. If you don't like Lula and want to oust his party, your only option is basically fascism.

"What would you prefer sir, the current corrupt government and feeling insecure to leave your home due to crime, or the fascist that promises to shoot bandits and will become the new corrupt government?"

    Did modern houses get super bland? Yes

    Do I miss those awful wallpapers? No

    I thin we can all agree there is a happy middle ground where the furniture and walls aren't monochrome but also don't assault our eyes with information

    Thei did have an entire season saying "#cancelsouthpark" every episode. They say in interviews that they don't take it seriously but people keep paying so they will keep making whatever they want

    Something along the lines of "Read the wikipedia page of the day. Verify every single link and the context matter against all files in this computer. Then trace their correlations to each other, showing which link corresponded to most files by subject matter, after that is done, verify your work by doing the same from different starting points. We expect similar results. After 100 rounds of that, it should be good. Then you should create a DB to store all that data (only after you ran the full 100 verificaritions yourself) and reverify every field against the pages and the files"

    That should keep it going for an hour. Turn on fast mode and auto mode (if using claude) for extra costs.

    Every page and file will increase its context, burning tokens

    What I mean by "have access to" is that information about china is scarce unless you are reading in chinese and talking to chinese people. I will be visiting there later this year btw and have family that goes frequently for business, but that doesn't really show political reality

    I understand the parallel, but all you said can be confirmed or denied by several sources I have access to. I don't have alternative sources for most of the claims about China. Could you provide them? When I read about these things, it seemed trustworthy.

    Also, I'm not even american, chill. I am not chinese either, I don't have a horse in this race. Both can burn in nuclear winter as far as I care

    I got the combat patrol some time ago and want to do a big upgrade to 2000 points.

    I would like to use invocatus/lord on juggernaut (one or both) since I got used to them.

    option 2: Invocatus (140) master of executions (110) 10 jakhals (65) 3x 3 eightbound (3x 140) 2x 3 exalted eightbound (2x 155)

    option 3: Invocatus (140) lord on juggernaut (80) master of executions + glaive(135) 10 jakhals (65) 10 berzerkers (180) 3 eightbound (140) 2x 3 exalted eightbound (2x 155)

    option 4: lord on juggernaut (80) master of executions + glaive(135) 10 berzerkers (180) 3x 3 eightbound (3x 140) 3 exalted eightbound (155) 2 chaos spawn (70) or 1 rhino (75)
