The revolution in question: endless amount of protests being funded by "progressive" billionaires.

Kinda wish they didn't have an actual revolution yet, cause at this point all it'd cause is a fuckton of deaths just to put a group like democrats back in power, then for reactionaries to go back into power democratically a couple years later. People there are genuinely blind to their predicament still, thinking the problem is just Trump.

I mean, even this kind of argument doesn't really work in reality. We already live in "hell on earth", and via electorialism usually two choices are given: the progressive "nothing ever happens" option (so your socdems, democrats, you'll be lucky to get a good policy or two but no real change to the status quo) or "literally hitler" option, maybe some parties that stand in the middle of the spectrum if the country is "advanced" enough.

In other words, via electorialism you can either preserve the hell on earth or make it worse, and the process of voting legitimizes this status quo as it's what "people have decided" rather than who the ruling class cast as candidates, who had the most money and media influence for campaigning.

It's important to see electorialism for what it truly is.

Just become a small business owner and start voting for mussolini or something, not that hard!

Chess β€œis diverse and inclusive,” the German Chess Federation said

Lol, lmao even. It's one of the more sexist sports there are in terms of organization, often marginalizing women and most of these marginalizing structures are still there to this day. This isn't to excuse anti-LGBT rhetoric, but pretending like everything is fine with chess probably doesn't help.

America's "first concentration camp"? What about the Japanese internment camps during WW2? Guantanamo Bay?

It's literally nothing new for US

The first time as tragedy, the second time as farce.

Wonder if Musk will get half the spoils for the crypto scam Trump pushed at the start of presidency

Did they really? If you look up his name via a search engine and grab results dating a month back and beyond, there's plenty of articles giving non-negative spotlights of him. If the establishment media were all trying to unanimously sabotage him, all they'd have to do is the opposite - stop reporting on him, given how politics is just money + media competition.

Fitgirl is a repacker, not a cracker so this really depends what kind of a release is it, so you'd have to test by yourself.

It should work when it comes to launching the game, I've done it before in the past. But in theory, it's unlikely to work with achievements given how cracks tend to overwrite the steam api dll files and hooks, likely disabling achievements in the process as part of the crack.

Something you could try is to copy the steam dll files like steam_api64.dll from the original copy on steam to the cracked one and see if that does the trick.

America when the most milquetoast social democrat gets elected in a local election:

 

Alt Text: Flowchart depicting the life cycle of social democracy (or "democratic socialism"). SocDems rise to power! (Revolution or reform) > Can't escape capitalist crisis, conditions worsen > Lose election > Standard capitalism is back! But it's unpleasant, people want something new... > Repeat or SocDems rise to power! > Turn to nationalism to pacify proletariat > Get owned > Standard capitalism is back! > Repeat.

 

Alt text: Sam Hyde talking about how he's Hitler's top guy, and how Hitler needs him to lead the revolution with the caption "Average small business owner when the rate of profit falls by 1%"
