Are there any other players on the Comissioner’s Exempt List that are in the game? EA’s statement didn’t exactly say why they were removing him, certainly doesn’t say it’s because of the tape.

The biggest question I’ve had about this game since it was revelaed is how defeat is handled? XCOM, Phantom Doctrine, other XCOM-likes, are all based on the idea that your roster is in constant flux due to your team members potentially going KIA, MIA, or otherwise being lost. So I guess, with there having only been…

These are only crimes if they get punished. Chances are, this will boil down to a misfiled form and he will get a (less than) stern rebuke from the six dudes in the basement that constitute the FEC enforcement brigade.

‘Resigning’ and ‘Backing down’ are pretty much synonymous, no? If she weren’t backing down, maybe she’d still be in office trying to prevent a complete Republican takeover of the elections office in that county.

Counterpoint: we wouldn't be seeing this blog post if this were 30,000 stuffed Gritty's flooding the ice.

So, the whole ‘first-second-third world’ thing has completely lost all meaning, yeah? You know it’s not actually a ranking, right? The First World being the Western Bloc during the Cold War, the Eastern Bloc the Second and everyone else (like Switzerland) the Third.

But that's a national view. What was the platform of the man the citizens of Mississippi refused to have represent them? Was he a centrist that cowtowed to the monies interests? If so, then he deserved to lose. If he was running on the kind of platform you're suggesting would work, and still lost to those voters, then…

But are those people you’re referring to a vocal minority fighting against a majority that could be described as the opportunity did, or some other demographic? Mississippi is known for a few things, and racism is chief among them, I’d say. Yes, lumping those progressives fighting the good fight in with the racists is…

We also don’t have an MLK, a Black Panthers, nor any other standard bearers for the civil Rights movement. This isn’t an issue of Rights anymore, this is an issue of policy and society, so I feel the parallels are not nearly as stark.

And yet, when the same argument that people have been uninspired and do not vote is put on millennials, it's a travesty and a sin of the highest order, requiring the largest of moralizing and demonizing that these people don't vote. So where are we all on that? That it's ok if you're demoralized and don't trust the…

This is bullshit. I’m all for continuing tonwrite them off until they actually change, look in the mirror, realize what is wrong with their state, and their citizens mobilize to prevent white racists from continuing to run the show.

This is sort of a red herring in my opinion. Cards are physical, collectable objects with decades of resale value, as well as the ability to buy individual items from anyone who wants to sell them, without need for a server or an internet connection, or even online DRM like an Origin or Blizzard account, and, for the…

I have had absolutely no such experience. Granted, I am doing a lot of side quests beyond just the cult or mercenaries or whatever, I am generally approaching it with a rambling and carefree attitude. Rather than set my sights on one specific angle and drive right through to the end, which is what it sounds like you…

He’s just coming out to defend the status quo, and his obviously partisan bench he now heads. He’s going to be voting with a bunch of “Trump justices” for the foreseeable future, and doesn’t want the stink of it to cling to his legacy.

Some have suggested that the troops at the border will simply ignore this, or that their direct superiors will not order them to use force and so they won’t.

Charges leveled by whom? There’s a standing order allowing for display and use of deadly force. Fuck, in this country and it's military fetishization where every GI is a hero, blowin away some of the brown Invaders would be seen as a act of patriotism by a vast swath of people.

Some state would have to be willing to investigate and charge the US or the individuals with breaking IHL. Just a guess, but there’s no way that happens. Israel, Russia, plenty of other countries break said laws all the time, and we are even less likely to be held accountable for gunning down civilians.

As far a I can tell, what used to be a relationship based on oil is now based on funneling Saudi oil money into the pockets of large US defense contractors. Like, that’s the entire defense of the US interest in Saudi Arabia. Is there a reason anyone nods their head and thinks this is ok? “Ah, yes, poor Raytheon. Good…

I've certainly been put in plenty of shitty situations. My point is that their leaders need not worry because these dudes are just going to do as they're told, and nobody else will suffer for it. The OP made it seem like there was a reckoning coming for the leaders, which is plainly false based on the obedience of our…

I would like to see these guys march on DC. But since that will never happen, I can only say the Roman Legion must have had a greater love for their country than these guys.
