@15roundTKO I did actually chuckle at this, but partially at the expense of free speech lunatics who also played a video to congress about how video game violence VERY BAD

@cdmac Switch Pro? More like Switch ProLETARIAT

@Moistnado I know what you mean, I love running around Saints Row IV all day punching cops that pulled people over, but I could never perform such an act of demonstrative liberation IRL because I would be murdered, so it’s just harmless fun

@cdmac oh I’m anti bombing people, from the nukes to dresden to the absolute atrocities that were carried out in Vietnam

@cdmac yeah, the scar was gnarly, weird little hexagonish spot a few inches left of the belly button, little pucker like a cigarette burn on the back.

He had a great story about when he woke up on his cot somebody was robbing him and he was just seized with a brutal rage and just swung into the dark and connected then fell back out.

He woke up the next day and reported that somebody was burglarizing his effects in the night and it turned out it was a friend of his who was just organizing his stuff while waiting for him to come around and my grandfather had knocked out two of the guys teeth, severely hurting his hand.

Great thing about the US Army back then, once he was recovered they were just gonna send him back out to fight even though he felt like crud, but they dropped the first bomb on his birthday and he got to go home.

He said it was the weirdest birthday present ever.

He was a good great grandpa, I loved him a lot.

@cdmac

All good
Cops

Bunnies

@teko my great grandfather got gutted by a bayonet at Okinawa, he was a US Soldier and a registered socialist. He lived!! (Well, he died 10 years ago, but you know)

@cdmac oooh, can’t swear tho, they’ll report you for that

“Cancel you”, if you will indulge me a small bon mot

@cdmac if you ever really want the NintendoLife comment section to blow up, find ways to make fun acronyms with the numerical code 1312

All
Chun-Li’s
Are
Best at kicking

@cdmac B B B B BUT PRIVATE PROPERTY!!!!

Freedoms!!!!!

@TryToBeHopeful i took that picture on the equator, so I was perpendicular to polar north

@Akimi i exercise every day!

@cdmac TBH whenever I start seeing all this gulag talk I mentally insert “but my dad said...” in front of it and it makes more sense at the level of the accusor

@cdmac I wonder how those burghers got the land to begin with? I love how people imagine Tsarist Russia was blameless, lovely land of lassez-faire market capitalism equality - or that present day Russia post-USSR is the land of the free.

@teko have you heard of manifest destiny? Empires are bad! Countries are bad! Full stop.

@cdmac @angelfox is saying fascism is good, as far as I can tell

@Nookingtons the movie industry was invented in California and Japanese people removed this flag.

Delete your account and read a book.

@Mikey_205 if you think the USSR had a problem with prisons exclusively, read about the US prison-industrial complex sometime.

I recommend starting with The New Jim Crow.

@somebread weird that’s 255 for me.

Oh well! Hope you’re having a nice day/night ☮️

@cdmac do a big thread on Eugene Debs vs. Lenin - those gentlemen had strong pens!

That’ll get us to five hundo

@somebread hey! I wrote comment 254 and it doesn’t mention any flags, but I’ll chip in:

If someone from the Phillipines, Vietnam, Korea, Russia, Central America, Africa, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Palestine, etc said “jeez I don’t like romanticism of col guile and Americana” I’d definitely admit they have a valid reason to feel that way.

I don’t fly the American flag on anything, but I get drunk on the 4th of July, which is kind of patriotic?

@Heavyarms55 hey, we killed PLENTY of civilians before and after the nukes, too!

Give us some credit, we’re pretty horrifically evil and imperial.

We’re still at it this very day!

@Balta666

A) awesome username 🤘

B) can you share a similar game for comparison?

@BloodNinja LMAOOOO I was gonna @ you here if you weren’t already in

Haha I used to rent The Lost Vikings all the time and my parents thought it was the worst game ever and would get so frustrated - I wonder if it was any good?

@Bass_X0 sure, I don’t see why not

@Freak_Show you don’t think American capitalism has killed people?

I mean, I can already kind of tell that empirical research isn’t a hobby of yours, since you’re making claims that have already been addressed in this very comment thread.

@Freak_Show that was already debunked earlier in the comment section.

@cdmac somebody’s about to claim their grandpa was a kulak to try and shame you hahahaha

@jancotianno you know, they actually DID make Zangief less communist after the initial release on arcade cabinets.

Funny how nobody is complaining that we have less Gorbachev in our children’s homes

@RetroNarf the article is neutral, the controversy is hurt white feelings

@Fifth313ment oh boy, so let me get this straight:

“I support a murderous imperial army” ✅

“I support boys kissing boys” 😱

@__jamiie nah now they’ll be like “cancel culture!!!” even though they thought the thanksgiving day parade shouldn’t show gay people dancing Broadway because kids are watching.

@__jamiie my dad and grandfather complained a LOT and were furious

@Fifth313ment please scroll the entire thread and see all of these concerns have been debunked previously. Thanks!

All in all, this comment section was much more polite and open minded than previous NL comment section fiascos, not bad

@khululy all people who try their best to be good people are good people.

Everyone else is still people and people deserve love and respect.

Welcome to the circle, friend

@TryToBeHopeful TBH all you guys look alike

@Rhaoulos i’m game to lay down our arms and embrace as brothers. Have a great weekend! For real for real! <3

Thanks for your diligence, NL overlords.

@TryToBeHopeful being a plumber means using the pipes to teleport underground to a secret area with 10-30 coins in it

@khululy I was cursed with thin, limp hair, alas.

Also, I lack the energy to scurry up a chainlink wall like a buff squirrel.

Oh Vega, you mensch.

@Freak_Show AUTHORITATIVE?

Buzz off, bootlicker. No gods no masters! Honor no kings!

DDFH

@TryToBeHopeful while I appreciate a good tautology, is Dr. Mario also Mario?

@cdmac Some dorks are gonna find this article in an hour or two and start the whole cycle again.

However, since it seems like only the three of us are left, I guess the good guys won!!!

@TryToBeHopeful it’s ok tho, I play as the King of Evil, Ganondorf, who is OP if anyone is.

@TryToBeHopeful Fox, Kirby, or (shudders) a Mii.

@Freak_Show you’re confusing activism with slacktivism.

Tweets don’t feed the hungry, that’s just organizing.

And if you don’t have a circle to organize, it’s just complaining.

@TryToBeHopeful tell us who your main is so we can start disagreeing on something

@khululy i was convinced as a child if I could get amazing bangs like Vega, the rest of my life would just fall into place nicely

@PatrickMarioMan “love the games; hate the gamers” as the old saying goes
