@KARNAGEclan The multiplayer wasnt so bad I guess but holy shit the campaign was ridiculous. Terrible story, units that make no sense, armored Nazis in Stalingrad and sturmgewhers in Papua New Guinea in 1943.

@TheMafiaPoint Most might say Scarface, the departed and casino but personally I recommend American Gangster with Denzel Washington.

What’s a mafia movie not The Godfather or Goodfellas that everyone should watch?

@Villgecrazylady American jews who were caught up in Europe when the war broke out and couldn't escape were murdered in the holocaust. I dont know how many but it happened. Not to mention jewish american soldiers who became POWs also were sent to concentration camps.

This shit is so weird. 1. There’s literally a giant ass Holocaust Memorial smack in the middle of Boston. It’s like a whole friggin park. They have tour guides and everything. 2. The Holocaust didn’t even happen in America. The victims weren’t even American. Why TF does every city in America need *multiple* memorials/museums dedicated to this foreign historical event???
Only In Boston@OnlyInBOS

Boston's first Holocaust Museum will open this year at 125 Tremont Street. It will feature real artifacts, survivor stories, and interactive exhibits designed to confront hate and make sure history is never repeated.

@_iamlougotti I wanna say Gary Oldman but I wonder if he starred in too many bad movies in the 90s.

@whereicy Not necessarily but it kinda does if you do it in front of a crowd. This is why you should probably propose in private.

@ArmouredDelta Well vietnam only made up a 3rd of that game. The whole game being Vietnam could certainly be something. Maybe showing multiple factions like air cavalry at la drang valley and more in depth urban combat with marines in Hue and even South Koreans who terrified the commies.

@ericmmatheny Russia pointed nuclear missiles at us for decades, spied on us, continue to spy on us, held a U2 pilot hostage after shooting him down, shot down a passenger jet full of Americans and supplied our enemies who killed our soldiers in war.

Russia never chanted death to America. Russia never held our sailors at gunpoint. Russia is not a threat to the United States. So why was meddling in their war with Ukraine in our interest but stopping a nuclear Iran is not?

@willchamberlain That actually might have had a similar affect as now. Hitler, Himmler, Goering were all incompetent and so were their closest sycophantic generals. That scenario would've left the best German generals in charge and better able to use the undefeated German army better.

I'm trying to imagine the alternative history of WW2 if it looked like this war, and what the coverage might look like "It's January 11th, 1942, one month after Hitler declared war on the United States. Hitler, Goering, Bohrmann, and Himmler were all killed in an allied bombing attack on Hitler's headquarters, along with fifty other members of the German High Command. 95% of entire German navy is resting at the bottom of the North Sea. The Luftwaffe is no more. Allied aircraft achieved complete air superiority over Germany within 48 hours of the war's start. Still, many sophisticated commentators are saying that the Third Reich has the upper hand, because they have shut down travel through the Danish straits."

@JayVTheGreat The public lynchings that still happen are still committed against black people like Trey Reed in Mississippi or of liberal white folks like Renee Good or Alex Pretti

“The parties switched. 🙃” I can’t tell. I still see modern day slavery and segregation. I still see political groups carrying out violence on behalf of the Democratic Party. I still see them trying to enslave immigrants and minorities to welfare. I still see public lynchings of anyone who dares to speak out against them and support the Republican Party. Ideologies switched? Lol, okay. Just because they created new names for their ideologies, that doesn’t mean anything switched.

@HollyGrayle All the countries you listed also have centuries of development, wealth and industrialization to help them rebuild when broke and damaged. Haiti never had that because it was only ever a sugar growing slave colony that couldn't develop because of the crippling reparations.

Germany was bombed to smithereens and paid reparations over multiple decades; Britain paid off the debt from borrowing 40% of their GDP to end slavery over the course of five generations; Japan was nuked TWICE. Haiti is f-cked because it's full of Haitians. That's really it. It's the people who make the place.
ɠɧıʂɧ@rirokpik

Haiti is poor and unstable because France forced it to pay 100 years of reparations for daring to kill their colonizers and the French,American and British governments couldn't allow a self-created Black nation to thrive. Haiti was punished for proving enslaved blacks could rise.

@ExoGhost I do despise all the sliding and bunny hoping. I've died countless times from enemies defying physics that call of duty should never have had in the first place.

@NickJFreitas Fuck you the right doesn't wanna be left alone. The right wants schools to enforce prayer and the ten commandments whether students like it or not. They wanna use dogs at airports to prevent women from flying out of state for abortions and deploy the national guard to your town

The left wants to rule and the right wants to be left alone. The right suffers from failing to realize that you can only be left alone if the politicians who want to leave you alone rule. That is not always Republicans but it’s is NEVER Democrats And before you tell me “not good enough” I’m going to ask you whether or not you vote in all the primaries. Because if you don’t, you’re helping to ensure that you never get the kind of Republicans you want.

@SeedOilDsrspctr You dont care about the most pivotal, monumental, culturally significant event in the last 500 years. Everyone is supposed to care about that for all time. Especially to learn the lesson to always oppose evil when you see it in the world.

@Okie_Rancher This isnt about comparing mark to jimmy. This is about being honest about whether or not plumbing is relevant knowledge to homeland security and national defense. I think you know its not.

I am not saying I am a huge Markwayne Mullin fan (and dude, seriously, just go by Mark), but plumbing work is hard. I do it. Slopes, angles, venting. Designing a drain, waste, and vent system is applied physics. Code compliance would challenge most lawyers. Jimmy Kimmel could not plumb a toilet if his life depended on it. The little guy couldn’t change his own oil. I would take a plumber over an actor any day every day. I’d take a plumber over someone with a PhD in philosophy. Frankly, I’d take a plumber over most Doctors, as their arrogance far exceeds their intellect.

Jimmy Kimmel: "Before he was elected to the Senate, Markwayne Mullin was plumber. That's right. We have a plumber protecting us from terrorism now." The elitism of Hollywood summarized in one moment. 👇

@realBrandonGill A plumber might have relevant knowledge for a job in housing and urban development or sanitation obviously but in no way shape or form is plumbing relevant to the job of protecting homeland security and identifying terrorists.

The left fundamentally believes that blue collar Americans are beneath them. They think you are somehow intellectually inferior if you work with your hands instead of sitting in graduate school classes. They prefer to elevate mediocrity to the highest levels of government based on useless credentials then Americans who actually play a role in building our country.
