Ever hear the term beefsteak nazi?

in his 1936 book Hitler: A Biography, remarking that in the Sturmabteilung (Brownshirts, SA) ranks there were “large numbers of Communists and Social Democrats” and that “many of the storm troops were called ‘beefsteaks’ – brown outside and red within”.

See also : Alexander dugan’s red-brown-green alliance of industrial union-focused leftists (red), ecologically-minded agrarians (green), and the far right (brown) which saw the russian hard left communist party merge with russia’s hard right neo-nazi party.

AKA : Red fascists

it is a well known industry standard design philosophy.

“At the time, a console title cost something in the realm of $100 in today’s dollars (or over €85-95), which made each game purchase an investment requiring long consideration and thoughtful planning. At that price, every game needed to last weeks, if not months, to justify the investment. Most games achieved this with the good old “Nintendo-hard” philosophy: Brutal challenges make a relative dearth of original content last longer.”

I wasn’t talking about the atom bomb. I was talking about how many innocent civilian deaths it took to “remove Nazi Germany”.

Let me ask you an honest question - do you believe Vladimir Putin when he claims that zionist ukraine is committing genocide in the donbass region, or are you aware that klepto-fascist dictators lie about that sort of thing?

When an MMO launches it normally has little content and uses difficulty to pad playtime, especially subscription MMOs like WOW and pre-one tamriel ESO. Typically an mmo reduces difficulty of old content over time, when new content becomes available.

I do agree that the effect is much more pronounced the more popular a game is. LoTRO at least added some of the overworld challenge back with an optional difficulty slider after community backlash, and I’m not sure that a less niche game would have bothered.

The US killed more innocent civilians in 1 night of world war 2 then the total number of palestinians, militants and civilians combined, that Israel has killed in the entire 75 year history of it’s existence.

And true irony is complaining about apartheid when there are more Arabs on the Israeli supreme court then there are Jews living free in all of Palestine.

Or maybe we will just get neo-fascism and the violent persecution of left wing america.

The irony of complaining about genocide while at the exact same moment considering the possibility to “remove Israel”.

Games made in the early 90’s were made for cartridges and floppy disks with limited memory and couldn’t contain a lot of content so difficulty was used to increase playtime.

So we should distrust hamas on this but not when they talk about the Gaza death toll?

Jews did not have equal rights in the Jerusalem Sanjak until the Ottoman Reform Edict of 1856.

Before that you had things like the 1847 ethnic cleansing of Jews in Jerusalem, or the 1834 looting of Safed.

What you are claiming is factually incorrect. Hamas is in the West Bank and no amount of denialism or insults will change that fact.

Media reports since 2022 suggest that Hamas and PIJ, with Iranian backing, have aided increased militant action in the West Bank (where actions by Israeli forces and settlers may endanger Palestinian civilians) to target Israelis and undermine the PA.

The Israeli military says it has killed the head of the Palestinian armed group Hamas in Jenin and two other fighters, as a major operation continues for a third day in the north of the occupied West Bank. Israeli security forces shot dead Wissam Khazem and then carried out air strikes on the other two as they attempted to flee, a statement said.

Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), mourned today a military commander in the Jenin Refugee Camp in the West Bank, amid the ongoing large-scale “Israeli” incursion. The commander Wissam Ayman Khazem “ascended to martyrdom following an airstrike that targeted him after an engagement with uncover Israeli forces east of Jenin” – according to Hamas’ statement on their official Telegram channel.

Are we really pretending there are no hamas in the west bank?

those are who should be working out how to meet the goals set. not the ones setting the goals.
