Sadly I have heard this types of liberals pacifist both sides comments a lot from my own Viet communities. It's highly concentrated in the new Viet dispora who came to the US after the 90s. Something about not having to pay the price for their freedom and peace and seeing how rich the imperial core is compared to their own country make them speak highly of the people who oppressed and killed their grandparents while shitting on said grandparents for fighting back.

Once again the West reminds people that "rules based order" means "you obey my rules and stop asking questions"

That table of breakdown in numbers of registration by brand in all models is wild. BYD is nearly more than all of the rest combined I think.

Isn't Arslan just an adaptation of a much older novel? There were like 2 adaptation for that story before that in the 80s and 90s I think.

The story is also kinda generic feudal fantasy with return return of the king concept so it's kinda boring.

You forgot to count 0. The alien should write 4 as 10, not 4.

Westoid leaders ride on the cream of the crop aircrafts maintained by blood and sweat of millions of working classes people and billions of exploited global South citizens. Of course they have better quality and less likely to encounter problems. However the tendency to cutting maintenance and decrease parts availability to drive up profit will catch up to them eventually. Blinken already had to delay his tour this year multiple times due to maintenance issues.

Probably the "you stop resisting while we steal your stuff" type.

I will trust it when I see it. The track record of the G7 in solving global warming is atrocious.

 

This work caught my attention a few months ago with the premise of having a 'realistic' economy based villainess type of story but as the story progress, it's getting more and more blatant with it classical liberal wish fulfillment bullshit

The original message of "I will save Japan lost generation by making the economy better" got turned into "how I exploited future knowledge to make profit for myself (and Japan) while screwing everyone else". The FMC basically just use her future knowledge to siphon America economic might to bail out Japan's economic burble while encouraging the worst aspect of America capitalist system. War profiteering, political corruption, racism, stealing personal freedom and privacy, every tricks in the book is fine as long as it's done outside of Japan.

Of course, the main character have to a be a super beautiful genius white girl from a rich and noble family that is only barely down on their luck right now cause of bad management by other people. It was totally easy to turn the ship around with future knowledge and a million dollar in seed capital. She was also super talent in singing and easily became an idol if her business fail.

To make the matter worse, to justify a world where the MC can be a blue blood noble in modern Japan, the author basically created an alt history where all other nations' agency is erased and the Allies just decided to give Japan everything they wanted in WW2 cause they surrendered earlier. Japan got to keep Manchuria, Japan got to keep the Zaibatsu, Japan beaten the Soviet and got stopped by the USA cause the Soviet got the A-bomb etc.

Finally, the books were pretty blatant about the anti communism message. The author have many characters in story repeating the same cliches "my country bad when it was under socialism, we are so rich now under capitalism, praise capitalism" or "communist stole my grandpa slaves, they were bad people".

The more I read the worse I feel so here is just my thought to easy my anger and grief of wasting time on such a piece of trash.

 

Communists in video games are typically either depicted as faceless goons for target practice or evil baby killers. Have you guys found any fair and balance or at least interesting depiction of communist in video games?

Since this is a lemmy instance for ML after all. Is there any games that you think fellow comrades should checkout?
