1. I could be proven wrong tomorrow but this is my opinion with what I’m seeing rn!
2. I think they’ve passed a rubicon (in both humanitarian & economic terms) that makes that impossible but again, No.1
*CoE, the CoG has a different function AFAIK
(…) religious aspect of their position is mostly meant to legitimize their rule just like the older Khalifs.
For the estimated 15-30% (DQMOT) of the population that makes up their base 💯% but My understanding is that the SL’s position is a mix of the two with political supremacy being the more significant factor (since he & the CoG can intervene in elections and control the real military) while the(…)
Don’t think it’s gonna cause a rebound of their popularity in any meaningful sense (not with the what happened in Jan & the current economic outlook), might give them a false cover to silence more internal & external dissent though
Referencing the (53>47) image, I think
Is his whole thing shitposting behind a mic and the occasional appearance on “self-help” podcasts until he loses another election to Carney?
Yeah I’m really curious about the timeline and how it actually went down (especially if they were in the same squadron and heard something was locking-on other aircraft)!
Yea it would track with the available info on this guy (super-corrupt, lots of personal domestic & overseas property and “deals” backed by IRGC’s economic & ideological elements)
Isn’t one of the biggest segments of their tech industry literally creating infiltration systems/techniques for our commercial & industrial tech? (Espionage aside) 😭
Do we count friendly fire tho?
Ike being primarily remembered by a couple of one-liners instead of all the crises he caused during his tenure has been a generational disaster (even if you ask someone about Ajax, there’s a good chance they’ll start badmouthing Truman or Carter before he even comes to mind)
This is what Alexander was spamming in the papyrus forums in 330 BC
There were rumors about him already running a lot of stuff as an informal deputy/delegate since at least Jan … idk if that indicates Special K’s own son god sidelined or there’s an internal civil war waiting around the corner tho
IIRC the whole studio leadership (& especially the team that developed it) seems to harbor a lot of resentment for the project because of some issues in their partnership structure with Sony but who knows…
Oh yeah, this specific one I talked about was from 1-2 months ago not the Summer “12 days war”
Seems like they’ve expanded the list after the initial attempts
Rumor was he (or his son?) had laid out a long list of successors in case *it* happened some time ago... Guess we’ll see after the smoke clears
Yeah sounds like they're moving in waves heading south from the gov district capital
Yeah imo the main differentiators are baseline expectations of action (& platforms), how present & visible the candidate has been during hard times, and the specific veep’s POTUS & their dynamic which 😬
Word on the street is it’s really good on the gameplay side (back-to-back sections of RE4 & RE7/8-style levels) but you’d have to have enjoyed the Original Raccoon City Stories or it’s not a good entry point into the franchise
Maine: Somehow worse in recruiting & electoral culture than *NH*
Would be funny if we make it and get a Romney-fied narrative of 2024 (from the Old Guard) 🔜
Heavy duty (& sometimes wide wale) Corduroy (TimeCatcher, Bronson MFG., Brooks Brothers & Buck Mason if you can get a coupon or sale etc.) is game changers for seating comfort & wind-chill resistance without too much warmth…
[altho buy if you get a good deal & would be wearing it a lot otherwise😬]
A confused dog looking at a piece of paper with his glasses up
TBF there were a lot of factors since the coup that contributed to it (the parliamentary system lockout, failed referendums, Internal radicalization and within the gov, Soviet influence ops etc.) …
but yeah one of the other internal factions in Ajax (the islamists) spearheaded the 1979 revolution
There were talks of some possible parallel, back-door deals from some MENA sources but no update on that either …
We’ll see (me thinks the only possible exit-hatch is DJT loving his name on top of a “historic deal” more than being a neocon ideologue but 🤷🏻♂️)
SecDef Rock (IL) ???
Jensen’s just gonna donate one of his Leather Jackets to OAI & call it a day lmao
