@xianc78 we could have had it at the Christmas truce.... damn.... always makes me sad to think about. guys who were more than willing to have a drink with each other for a night knowing full well they'd have to kill each other the next day if they didn't want to be killed/tortured by their governments. i think i heard that a lot of them simply pretended to be fighting after that, but that might have been a different battle.

@p @Zettour This election cycle is starting to radicalized me bro

A CBDC sure is dangerous, but the fiat trash they call the US dollar isn't a defense against it. It's the foundation FOR it.

NEW - Trump Embraces the "Bitcoin-Dollar", Stablecoins to Entrench US Financial Hegemony

Trump's recent speech on bitcoin and crypto embraced policies that will seek to mold bitcoin into an enabler of irresponsible fiscal policy and will employ programmable, surveillable stablecoins to expand and entrench dollar dominance.

US Presidential Races Hide The Criminality of the US Empire

https://www.lewrockwell.com/2024/07/no_author/us-presidential-races-hide-the-criminality-of-the-us-empire/

@xianc78 Not exactly the same but xabungle is similar, the "innocent" are race of people physically unable to survive on planet Zola and live in domes protecting from the outside world.

Outside of these domes live 3 races they bioengineered to live in different regions of Zola. While never explicitly stated yet (I'm on ep39 as of writing) I think the hanawans likely were created first as they can't physically bare exposure to Zola's sun and have to live under the "mud sea". Their beliefs also mirror Tartary and mud flood, which the innocent abuse that to enlist into conflicts for their own ends.

Second are the toran-torans, which I know the least about, initially they just they just come as a tribe with the Civilian race which mirror real life native americans. But the Innocent created them separately from civilians and their differences are more mental than physical. They are extremely homogeneous to the extent it is hard to distinguish an individual toran-toran from another, and in general they act more as a group. They mark the point innocent managed to create a race that could live on Zola's surface but are a step back in mental ability.

Civilians are the final race, and the first to challenge the Innocent, having the both mental ability of the hanawan and physical ability of the toran-toran. Besides the Innocent, they most clearly mirror real humans, having a similar pool of genetic traits found in real humans, besides colored hair.

In a lot of ways the innocent mirror the State. They hold a monopoly on trade and technology, however most civilians whether consciously or not engage in a form of rational ignorance. The innocent can even decide who has a license to trade, and if you work as a merchant or transporter it's safer to affirm your submission to the innocent.

Since the innocent are physically unable to bare Zola's surface, they either use Walker Mechs or enlist other races as "instigators" to handle their conflicts. Which again mirroring real life ends up reaching back to home soil, Jiron who ends up destroying multiple Innocent domes and eventually partially joining forces with "solt" an civilian organization aiming to overthrow the innocent. They are run by Katakam and mirror Natsocs in certain aspects, violating personal rights for group welfare. For example Katakam insists on making the iron gear the collective property of solt, however Jiron refuses as it belongs to Elchi and isn't his to give away.

Can we please stop with “____ is dead” and “____ sucks?”

These phrases are overused, and they don’t mean anything. They never did.

Here’s a bunch more; which other ones do you hate?
