I didn’t say you did. I was merely stating an opinion.

The game isn’t good. Triple AAA or not.

There were plenty of pacifists that stood up to fascists.

The White Rose is a good example of one. The members were executed by guillotine.

Killing kids looks horrible and no doubt cost the nazi some political capital. Nonviolent resistance works just as well as other types. Non-violent and violence working together can produce great things.

I prefer Plains bison for a crazy tautonym. Its genus, species, and subspecies are all the same word.

Bison Bison Bison

Or Extra Extra Extra for extra fun.

Simply going to Mecca isn't the Hajj. There are a whole bunch of rituals Muslims have to do while in Mecca and its surrounding areas.

When the pilgrim is about 6 miles (10 km) from Mecca, he or she enters the state of holiness and purity known as ihram and dons the ihram garments; for men they consist of two white seamless sheets that are wrapped around the body, while women may wear sewn clothes. The pilgrims cut neither their hair nor their nails until the pilgrimage rite is over. They enter Mecca and walk seven times around the sacred shrine called the Kaaba, in the Great Mosque; if possible, kiss or touch the Black Stone (al-Ḥajar al-Aswad) in the Kaaba; pray twice in the direction of the Maqām Ibrāhīm and the Kaaba; and run seven times between the minor prominences of Mount Ṣafā and Mount Marwah. On the 7th day of Dhū al-Ḥijjah the pilgrims are reminded of their duties. At the second stage of the ritual, which takes place between the 8th and the 12th days of the month, the pilgrim visits the holy places outside Mecca—Jabal al-Raḥmah, Muzdalifah, and Minā—and sacrifices an animal in commemoration of Abraham’s sacrifice. Male pilgrims’ heads are then usually shaved, and female pilgrims remove a lock of hair. After the rajm ritual at Minā, in which pilgrims throw seven stones at three walls (formerly pillars, symbolizing the Devil) on three successive days, the pilgrim returns to Mecca to perform the farewell ṭawāf, or circumambulation, of the Kaaba before leaving the city.

This seems like a meme about piracy for script kiddies. These issues don’t really exist for anyone who knows what they’re doing.

The rest of the galactic population is in the void with us. It’s the rest of the universe outside the local void that has quarantined us.
