Americans can't actually understand politics more recent than WW2. There are in fact different kinds of bad people, some of whom don't follow a bad painter's dead ideology. Some even like the uniforms and murderous racism while inheriting next to none of the actual dogma!

But no it's the brave GIs vs the Nazis, round 2019

Sorry, sorry, authoritarian right-wing bigot who does not, necessarily, hold the National Socialist beliefs of Adolf Hitler's political movement.

Won't someone think of the nazi-adjacents :( ?

I'm kinda drunk here and my reading skills are deteriorating, but would like to clarify in case it was unclear, I do not hold any race or group of people unequal to another.

If it was in any sense unclear, I will call out a nazi, or a racist, and have done so in the wild.

Let's play a different game.
Lower-case nazi is necessary and sufficient, because for all their belly-aching, it says what you think it says, and means what you think it means. Every other description either leaves something out, or requires a long qualification for something that 'you know when you see it'.

I'm loathe to use a term they invented, but 'far-right ethno-nationalist', or something like 'far right internet reactionary bigot'.

I considered swapping from nazi to ethno-nationalist, to avoid the 'you call everyone a nazi' issue, but they just came back with 'hurr well japan is ethno-nationalist, and that's racist to Israel :ironicat:', and then I realised that I don't really care if gamers think nazi is applied too liberally, and just call them nazis.

Contrariwise they should have a good time, enjoy the discos and :catdrugs: and then leave Israel holding the check.

this is why we don't do politics here, because we suddenly go full D&D with these nuclear takes. go to D&D with this poo poo cause this aint the thread for it, bitch.

moving on, i've found out the anti-corn technology developed by the ancient incan aztecs. they call this product a "legume", or "bean" in our white language. after ingesting a bean, i feel like I can take on the entire field of cornazis like its Wolfenbean 2. Jeb bush doesn't stand a chance, and neither does the Corn. If you are reading this and your mind isn't as corn-poisoned as Tubgoat's, ingest beans to destroy any corn-roots that might have embedded themselves in your brain, grab any kind of corn (cobs, kernels, etc.) and burn 'em, watch those motherfuckers pop like bubble wrap. with this knowledge, you can take back your country from the Corn, and one day we might stand a chance at obtaining true liberty. God bless Ameribeans

It is, but only because people who only do it once or twice in their life have a very rose-colored glasses views of it. You know the type, the one who goes on a college trip to paris for 2 weeks once and comes back a "changed person" and "accidentally" keeps using a french accent/french words for things until someone tells them to knock it off.

The actual traveling part of traveling blows. Even if you're in first class, flying overseas just sucks. It's all about what you do once you get there. But imho there's a difference between travel and ~travel~ (pretend I said that with a starry eyed look and longful sigh and linked you to my instagram after if you can't tell the difference)

I'm sorry but it just sounds rear end in a top hat-y. There's no way to say croissant the french way without sounding like a snob.

I keep planning on going with a friend which keeps getting put off but I have a feeling it's going to not be nearly as annoying as I expect and I might actually enjoy it, which would ruin the whole trip because I'd have to admit to being wrong about paris/parisians.

I was gonna say that there is some tenuous incestuous link betwixt the US and France (maybe revolution based?) that explains why both of our premiere cities smell like poo poo and are full of assholes.

At least at this time of year, NYC is notorious for smelling like chienne. Parisians don't douche droit and just walk around without the benefit of Axetm body spray. And the rest of our respective countries have crude but voluminous ideals about cheese. Quebec and Louisiana are sort of stuck in the middle ground of being hated or misunderstood by all.

*sigh*

What? I get the opposite effect.

Atlanta and Chicago are the only cities that should be left standing. And DC. And hopefully bits of Portland just to stick it to Portland.

The real poors are the shite parts of the country were the minimum wage is the federal and everyone who isn't a land owning farm corporation knows to gtfo
