Finished a game as Miriam. Planet turned into a race between my armies and implacably rising seas to claim the remaining few isolated Spartan bases. The last remnants of humanity live in a demented mashup of Waterworld and A Handmaid's Tale. Paradox needs to remake this game.

Jeb! Repetition posted:Are there any people who're the exact reverse of Homework Explainer, like they're born in China but think capitalism is so cool they'll defend anything the U.S. does There used to be a blog that translated weird stuff from the Chinese internet. They found a thread once that was a guy posting that since he couldn't get a wife he would be helping the Americans when they invaded. There were other yankophile posts too from people who argued that everything in America was better than China. Some of these were hilariously wrong about things like America's high speed passenger rail network.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:I've acknowledged that Chinese people can in fact be racist, but I did make a joke that Chinese Xenophobia is somewhat justifiable considering their history of foreign humiliation and colonization. This was a good joke because Qing refusal to treat with foreigners on equal terms was the root cause of those humiliations.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:Wow, blaming the victim. So the Qing didn't have it coming? Nice double standard you've got there for an imperialist invader dynasty. Way to prove Rudatron's stupid point by your own logic A real crime of the British was helping the Qing stifle internal reform and then preventing their overthrow. In that sense British imperialism created the need for a Great Leap Forward.

Horseshoe theory posted:Didn't that lead to E/N being spammed with "Use LSD!" posts in response to inquiries from OPs about various issues? E/N's mods told various OPs to do LSD about not being allowed close threads.

rudatron posted:does apocalypse turn stellaris into a good game It is supposed to make the war mechanics more like EU4 in space if I've read the devlogs correctly and also you can blow up or slave-shield planets. We're still probably two or three DLCs from Stellaris being "good" though.

Inescapable Duck posted:China is basically the new Japan when it comes to foreign policy. pre-WW2 era Imperial Japan to be precise. The Chinese are way closer to Imperial Germany and even that's a huge stretch.

Larry Parrish posted:say what you will about china but its pretty fail that the state that invented landlord murder also brought back landlords The French invented and rejected the revolutionary calendar. The British abolished and brought back their monarchy. Sometimes nations try things and then don't stick with them. Why must you hold China to such a uniquely high standard?

Did this thread ever talk about the latest episode of David Harvey's Anti-Capitalist Chronicles where he talks about the condition and history of the Chinese working class? https://www.democracyatwork.info/acc Can those of you who have experience in China comment on whether his take on the situation the is correct?
