  2. Demonstrations fall apart all the time across the globe. A record of who's done the best is platitudinous at best. Hate has its place in discussion, but hate crimes do not. It's one thing to have the Klan in your neighborhood park on their own volition, and it's another thing to have them in your personal space against your volition. There is a gratuitous filter on humanity as a whole, and fortunately, it's working, but unfortunately, it doesn't work very fast. Even in the age of information, we remain paradoxically social yet isolated beings.

  4. Yeah, and it goes both ways. White people get robbed second, believe it or not, and often times the crime that takes place will be less violent, however, given the right set of trees around the right pea-rock road, and there's nothing that can save you but you. This is why we have theories and ignorance so close to our hearts. We rely on nothing but our own disproportionately shaped experiences to give us the tools and understanding f or situations that we haven't ever been in, and so when they come around, we act foolishly to even the most simple of stimuli. Think just right beneath Memphis, and then think midway between there and Tupelo. Creepy stuff happens in nowhere~
  5. Convenient as it may be, the exact same thing could be easily done in-game pm, which allows for much more extortion and a better buyout as well as a gauge of activity/inactivity. Edit: and come to think of it, what better offer could you give a pirate than, "All of it?"
  6. 1. What do you guys consider racist? Racism is any belief born from the idea that their are intrinsic differences in identical species which stem from physiological, psychological, or otherwise undetermined aspects attributed simply to a person's hereditary material. 2. Do you believe there a such thing as racism against whites? Absolutely. Especially here in North Mississippi, I myself (a latino/white mix) have been the subject of much discrimination. Taunts, physical attacks, and psychological abuse all brought on because of the color of my skin. Racism knows no boundaries of race, it is only employed by those who wish to better define them. 3. Do you find the Confederate Flag offensive? It is a symbol. I never cared to look at it for too long because it's a hideous red, white, and blue eyesore and there are better uses for the colors. It has a clear history of being attributed to violence and was a insignia of a culture dedicated to enslaving fellow man. That being said, it is a symbol that holds only as much power as it is granted. Is a left facing swastika more offensive than a right facing one? Why? 4. Thoughts on racial stereotyping? It happens. The human brain only has the capacity to recognize minutiae even when collectively acknowledge as one macro substance. For instance, when I say "the black guy" there may be a certain image that comes to mind. Same with "the ayyslam guy" or "the big purple !@#$ dinosaur." There are infinite variations from each integer to the infinite variations of the decibel that follows. Yet, we are compelled, if not entirely sans admonition, to relegate the attributes of an entire group of people to the image of a single person. This is an extremely difficult mechanism to rewrite, which is why I in part feel for anyone who hates black people, police, raiders, synths, or what have you. It's important we understand the root of the causes behind racial profiling and racism itself to prevent it from growing like weeds in rose garden. Just as well, racism is as easy as saying "!@#$ this, I just want to be happy. Can we do that?" And the other person saying "!@#$ yes. Let's be sooooo happy, dawg." 5. Should racism be banned, or is it a necessary downside of free speech? There is a double edged sword here. To pretend it doesn't happen or that it is criminal does nothing but stoke the fires born out of an already chaotic darkness hungry for any substance to fuel. If you ban racism, you might as well ban catty chats over tea and thinly veiled passive aggressive insults. It's superfluous and futile. Hate is powerful and poisonous. You can't ban it. You must neutralize it with compassion and good stuff. Edit: An addendum to the list of people for whom I feel: all of them. including the ones that hate whites and latinos.
  7. The People's Republic of The New Union of States was a surreal and timeless experience. It was almost like my home country the USA, but very different. New D.C. was perhaps the most surprising change actually being considered a city within the country itself and it appeared the government was in good standing with the few citizens I managed to interview. There was very little about this nation cataloged in national archives, or at least those available to me, and I walked away with a sense of emptiness. Nevertheless, I was glad to see that the infrastructure was well maintained and the citizens happy despite the rather large portion of armed forces I noticed about. I wasn't able to secure an interview with the leader, but that's the price I pay for visiting countries as a beatnik instead of as an ambassador.
  8. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy new person! Hi!
  9. That'd be stellar. How exactly did you roast him?
  10. Да! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy
  11. Super poignant way to put such an objective notion. >I can't believe >crap >all crap
  12. i found out that my avg amount of sleep was equal to three hours a day over the course of nine months, fluctuating occasionally by 2-4 hours each trimester. Edit: this treaty is happy news. It makes me happy <3
  13. I think it's neat how you named you alliance after a treaty. I wish you all the best and may you exceed your enemies ten million score.
  14. The best country is one that operates with 100% efficiency without any sort of crime, defamation, or destruction from any causation or random event. This does not exist. I looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove Norway, and I absolutely love the USA, but there is no such thing as "the best country". There is only "what feels like home somewhere the weather and people are relatively agreeable."
  15. Roz Wei is killin' it. They have the right idea.
  16. What's to discuss? We war with one another because our economy is unstable. Our children revolt against us. Our families fall apart. Our wallets practically empty themselves. All anyone wants to do is go home and go to sleep, but then there are those who stay up late into the night plotting danger and destruction against those who mean them no harm. It is a sad and vicious circle that has its own fair share of roots and influence, but it is itself nothing more than additional coverage of subtracted conflict. We are rebuilding the world as it slowly rebuilds itself. There is nothing stopping us but age, pomp, and circumstance.
  17. \m/ is the beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeest join, plais
  18. I really like how actively this group communicates. It truly paints you as a force to be reckoned with.
