BruceVC confirmed for not ever played the original Deus Ex.

For me, it's not an issue on whether i agree or disagree with the foreign policy, since it hasn't really changed since the Bush doctrine. Neither do i take an issue with questionable or evil stuff by themselves of Obama, since they are also part of the human condition. No, what i do have an issue with is the hypocrisy that what he does is somehow righteous or morally good (the fault of others for beliving that) and i would be quite worried if he believes himself to be a good person, because that means that all decisions are done in good conscience. Some examples: - It is better to kill Bin Laden in a strike mission than to capture him and have him stand trial - Killing over 2000 innocent people in drone strikes in Pakistan and Yemen is acceptable collateral damage. The deaths are carried out by JSOC and requires a presidential approval before each attack, which means he is personally responsible for each one. - Continues the war on drugs despite smoking dope himself

So this just happened: Ubisoft has banned Kotaku from attending their events.

Well to be fair, i maybe lashed out unnecesseraly. The book is still the same, while an adaption is just that, another adaption with some more current flairs thrown in. If they were doing a "revised" edition of the original book though, uuurgh.

So he will be a civil rights activist that has given up and wants a race war instead? Would be something new at least Thank god for copyrights by the way, because as it seems much will be rewritten to the extent that nothing will mean anything any more. Think of the classics: Dune, Lord of the Rings, The Great Gatsby etc and what kind of terror those kinds of moralists/idealists have already unleashed with removing/changing "insensitive" words.

Band-Aid Vs. accelerationism? I support a 3rd way. BURN IT ALL DOWN Someone has been reading Spengler, i see.

Snowden is either a paranoid guy with no place to go or he was a CIA plant placed in NSA in order to mess with their operations. From what i gather, the CIA and the NSA do not like each other. In my humble opinion of course.

Pretty much every military intelligence in the world has handbooks such as this: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/fr/546409/posts We can always dig up our friend Yuri Bezmenov: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOKtcQbP2b4 There are more lectures about from the guy on youtube if you bother to search. Finally, in case you guys haven't noticed, social interaction has moved to the internet already. So maybe you should ask yourself on why wouldn't intelligence agencies around the world try to influence agendas, opinions and the flow of information in their benefit.

Sometimes the most radical thing to do is to listen & believe when people with glasses tell of their experiences.

After you guys have read my previous link, there is now time to check how things are going in one of the most free and richest countries on earth: Norway. Here, a paradox has arisen since achieving the highest level of equality, namely that women tend to revert to traditional female vocations. The following video was shown norwegian state television:

Who is the best feminist scholar? Twilight Sparkle I have no idea, but I sure as hell have a strong candidate for who isn't Boo Come on now, trust your instincts. For example, when someone says "left scholar", i say Noam Chomsky. When i say "Gender pay gap/feminist scholar" you say....? I don't say anything, because I'm studying medicine, not gender studies, therefore I lack the kind of insight into the field that would let me make such judgments. There is value in acknowledging the limits of one's knowledge. Huh, i got the impression that you were quite knowledgeable in that field considering your comments about Sommers. My bad.

On a more serious note, paid shills exist, even on 8chan of all places as well. Ukraine-crisis? Suddenly there was numerous threads about Mossad, Nato and American sniper-assassins and whatnot being truly behind the crisis and Crimea simply answered to aggressive tactics by the west. Problem in the middle east? Suddenly there is a huge influx of pro-israel threads were people were seemingly debating with themselves. They were later exposed due to forgotting to reset their IPs or being part of larger botnets.

[citation needed] Note: "my ignorance" does not count as a credible source. Stop sidestepping. What are these structures? Define them. Why are they racist? Saying "just acknowledge them" is way too lazy for anyone to take that argument seriously. Says the guy who's too lazy to ****ing google the phrase "structural racism". Examples of such. Come on, they are behind paywalls. I want to hear your opinion about it, what is a racist structure, how do you measure it and what methods should be used to change them? And as for the message, he is openly declaring that white people should create games for minorities in mind as well. He acknowledges that the game is made by a polish team based on slavic folklore but he still manages to shoehorn in that it shouldn't matter, minority characters should still be in. Either he is quite dumb to understand what he is demanding or he is into something quite more sinister. Nonek is right though, they should follow through and demand a boycot instead.

Admit it, you just loathe Sommers for her involvement in GG. I loathe Summers for her general wingnuttery, outright lies, malicious misuse of statistics, and working for an anti-intellectual conspiracy theorist. Compared to these, her involvement with GG isn't even a blip on the radar. Neither is it particularly surprising, mind. Who is the best feminist scholar?

Saying "just acknowledge them" is way too lazy for anyone to take that argument seriously. Apparently you don't, otherwise you could support your... 'understanding' of the text with actual quotes. lol, it's clear as a sunny day. Games should have more minorities because feelz and he uses The Witcher 3 as an example.

Pffft. I understand the text that you overanalyze per paragraph. I won't blame you for missing it, people still seem to be confused about what Jesus meant to say in the Bible. //Gah, too drunk to care about the botched quote-system. Time for bed.

At least acknowledging the existence of structural racism would be a nice first step. I am not in a mood for listening & believing. Please try to answer my initial question. Which can generally be gleaned through engagement with the core text, not vague claims of "it's totally there, honest". Nope.

It is to a certain percentage of the their initial wage (too lazy to look up now). But since women most often marry older men that already have a career, it usually ends with the men staying at work more since it is an economically sounder solution for the family.
