tfw you can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion, and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

"I for one welcome our new communist overlords!"

[–] 666@lemmygrad.ml 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

was talking something similar to this in a Fire Rises pathway for Maoist Trump.

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Okay, that is... an impressive level of patsoc crankery.

"HOI4 Modder or Earnest Political Crank" is gonna be a fun game as US politics gets crazier by the day and the HOI4 mods try to satirize it with more and more exaggeration every update.

I kinda wanna try some wacky HOI4 mods now. Even though I barely know how to play HOI4.

[–] Saeculum@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Try Kaiserreich, play the LKMT, get ready to do a lot of reading.

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Ahh, commies and doing a lot of reading. Like cheese on pizza!

(I've seen Kaiserreich recommended a lot by other commies. Good leftist paths?)

[–] Saeculum@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Some very good ones, especially with the recent overhauls for a lot of Syndicalist nations. China especially got a lot of love from the dev team.

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Oh yeah, they do call Kaiserreich "the syndie mod". And, like, I was never really a syndicalist, but I did love the C.N.T-F.A.I in my teenage anarchist phase. So yeah I like syndicalism in political games even now.

Oh, yeah. Communist China is a fun one to play in a lot of these political games. I will say, I personally like unconventional and ahistorical commie paths a lot more than the mostly-historical ones or alternate ideologies for actual socialist states. A good test of a "Leftist Mod" for a game like this is the quality/existence of the ahistorical communist paths. I do like both wildly implausible ones and ones that follow the communist tendency actually popular in that country at that time frame, though. And I always like a good implausible an-com or syndie power-fantasy path, because when I play political games, I'm very much still my twelve year old self.

There was a good HOI4 mod that had a good communist Japan path. I'll have to dig it up and check it out but it was really neat since the base-game communist Japan path is very scarce and justifiably very hard to do.

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago

Yeah, communism in vanilla HOI4 is just often a let down in general.

That's why I love it. The game is just crankery all the way round and I was saying I would want to see a hardcore environmentalist-maoist trump path too. Shit would be hilarious. Accelerating the collapse of the Empire and tweeting like the Buddha and encouraging community action. There should be like a "trump political shift" tree where you can just literally have him in any flavor. Have him run in the DNC. Abandon all of his past and begin championing for Islam. Shit would be hilarious.

If you wanna see some real crank tho you gotta check the germany path tree.

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago

Ohh yeah. HOI4 is absolutely distilled political crankery. The real schizo mods are like the thrice distilled and finely aged stuff. But I really hate war as a front and center mechanic of a political game, which means I tend to stick to ahistorical socialism in vanilla or lightly modded Vicky, not the true nuttiness that is leftist paths in HOI4's craziest mods.

If there's one thing you definitely shouldn't give to babies, it's liquids. Pure solids only for them.

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 39 points 2 months ago (7 children)

My baby is sick and refuses to eat her overdone steak even if I cut it up for her. What can I do?

[–] Pentacat@hexbear.net 24 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ketchup. Babies love overdone steak smothered in ketchup. It doesn’t count as a liquid that way.

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You joke, but a while ago there was a thread about people feeding their infant raw meat yikes-1yikes-2yikes-3

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ack.

I fed my baby generous amounts of steak and seed oil but he died. How did woke get into my house?

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

Don't you know Seed Oil is dangerous?! You should've fed that baby steak washed down with beef tallow instead!

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago

Your baby is gay and woke. It must be sent to military testosterone masculinity camp immediately to learn to shoot guns and drink whiskey.

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago

Clearly your baby is offended by your snowflake choice to cut up the steak, that baby needs to just chew on it like a dog in order to be a real ~~man~~ baby.

[–] ComRed2@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago (2 children)
[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

I stand corrected.

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

first you must cook the steak well done and add plenty of ketchup.

this is how our president enjoys his steaks, so this is how your weak baby will consume the steaks necessary to become a powerful, strong man of genius level intelligence.

[–] MeowZedong@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 2 months ago

Solids are not enough, you also need to make sure there are no additives, etc. Feed your baby a live cow.

[–] TheModerateTankie@hexbear.net 41 points 2 months ago (2 children)

They think every child should be exposed to every disease to "build up immunity", but think vaccines are evil sorcery.

[–] 666@lemmygrad.ml 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ah, wait. What if we can restrict OTC pain-killers like aspirin and excedrin "behind-the-counter" regulated drugs to crank up profits?

What if aspirin and your average migraine medicine gets labeled with a "autism warning"?

Calling in advanced lathe-support.

[–] TheModerateTankie@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

trump-feed Make oxycontin great again

They really have the mindset of a medieval peasant from top to bottom.

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

I think peasants had a better idea of self-preservation even if they weren't very well-educated on the mechanics of how to best go about it.

[–] Crucible@hexbear.net 35 points 2 months ago

Is 'break it up' just calling for Andrew Wakefield's 'give them 3 separate vaccines isntead of 1 because I'm invested in the 3 vaccines' system?

[–] LangleyDominos@hexbear.net 25 points 2 months ago

baby too wet. dry baby.

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 23 points 2 months ago

Brainal leaking kelly

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 21 points 2 months ago

Andrew Wakefield gonna grift himself into being the head of FDA at this rate

[–] roux@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

To his credit, I usually have too much liquid in me. It's alcohol.

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

Don't forget when he said there's no need to give a two year old hep b, so you should give it to them at twelve.

[–] tombruzzo@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

This is what I say when I fill up my boys' water and they drink half as soon as I give it to them

[–] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago

Trump likes his vaccines on the rocks.
