It wasn't WWIII
*But it's more fun to call it that.*
True
individuals in large numbers are the masses
and yes Jaden, only this time the goy jew survived
I thought a collective of individuals was called a ball pit? <:Kappa:327142715592540171>

thats fake there is no rain in front of the face ๐
SPREAD IT
Thank you friend.
"Santa's lucky, 'cause he only eats cookies." ๐
rocked by rape
Lol
i'd call that smart, not cowardly,
what kind of idiot would intentionally add risk to their combat life?
they forgot the chinese created gunpowder....
they forgot to add that those "whites" who invaded were smart enough to A) bring a gun to a knife fight and B) band together and stop fighting their neighbors 24/7
if you are going to insult someone, make sure you don't unintentionally insult your self with implied meaning
and C) bribe tribes to capture other tribesmen
Brains vs brawn eh?
thats always a thing people forget
"how dare you buy slaves"
like yeah, thats bad enough.... but who sold them? Thats worse. OH that's right **their often black neighbors**
you mean, pretty much all black neighbours.
Eh what can I say, people figured out how to monetize victimhood.
Thats genius really.
Cant find the battle, but thats how guns vs spears went
"These horrible people, no honor, no bravery. This is why we are better"
....really? you are better? thats why you are living in huts, starving, and killing your next door neighbors? BEFORE the white man even got there? Maybe instead of bitching about being behind and its unfair, how about you get clever and beat them at their own system. You know, like feudal japan did after we borderline forced them out of seclusion.
Eh man, if you got nothing going for you.
or just bitch about asians being OP i guess
"we support all minorities.... except Asians, they make us look bad"
"chad nigger vs virgin slope"
@GingaBomber this is a better example for Guns vs Melee :P

But... Musket lines
And sexy british uniforms
bit of a one-sided fight that 1h clip is ๐
Eh, so was the war
Well, zulus lost almost 7k vs 2k europeans.
Then again, might have a point, europeans would retreat earlier.
Still thoguh balance wise, sure, you have cannons, and musketlines, but youd encounter waves of a 100 at once. They will drop like flies, but once they get close, your firing line is screwed.
true, though in most cases they wouldn't all just stand undefended they'd have ways to keep the people on distance
walls, dem spike barriers, pits etc
Im talking the game tho.
IRL, well, they had volley fire formation.
Had some fortified positions that funneled the zulus.
yeah
I like the volley fire formation. Pike and shot period to shot and bayonet period has to be my fourth favourite moment in war
When it comes to war history
Worst thing to hear in this mod? Your commander yelling "affix bayonets"
haha
Well, cause spears are actually better than bayonets. In close range. Rifles wernt long enough to be used as conventional spears that time.
I mean whys that?
for the non-spear people i'd imagine?
Well, spears were better than swords in general
yeah
but i always figured bayonets were for a last moment stab when you're still shooting and don't have time to draw another weapon
well, with fire rates that slow, youd only get one chance in close range.
So you switch to a melee range. A bayonet just happened to be the most cost effective way to get everyone cheap bladed close range weapons.
Unlike calvary that would get cutlasses.
Like what? Club them to death with the stock?
well if you're on your own yes, but wouldn't you get a bit more time to reload when your squad fires too?
Well, unless you have some form of volley fire.
Thats an issue.
Also, if you are firing alone, you are already doing something terribly wrong.
maybe you're Chuck Colonorrist?
I mean, those muskets create so much smoke that the field is a mist after a half dozen volleys.
And you only have enough time to fire a few times.
Not sure how common melee ended up, but it was understood that you either shot from afar with a unit, or were close up in their faces.
makes sense yeah
With bayonets.
Like said, just happens to be the nuance of the period. Ranged weapons with innate armor piercing simply made metal armor obsolete.
One shot + a canister of cotton and gunpowder is easier to transport than arrows/crossbows despite both being more accurate than shot.
Bayonets + pistols for close range. Since shots take so goddamn long to reload and fire.
maybe africa should demand a rematch
Well, they already started in south afric
Id joke more, but I really would rather actually hope someone does something about it.
Australia should put forth its plan to move those white people from South Africa to Australia,
Then we can just watch south africa go the way of Zimbabwe
Fuck whoever is calling Aussies racist for bringing over farmers.
Like let my country take the rohingyas. The farmers will actually contribute to society.
Black British Woman should touch base with all the "cowardly & weak" gangbangers in Chicago
wth
This needs to be seen.
why?
cuz it shows the mainstream media being just one mouthpiece for whoever is paying them
'n shizzle
well... its a general statement that is intended to fit for all stations... and it is completely neutral on politics...
all those stations are owned by the same company too, so they were just all given that script
im just elaborating on why he linked it, i'm not like "pff, liek u didn't know that? pff l2 facts k?"
yeah... i know the context... i just don't see any relevance... its basic self promotion, i don't expect a company to write hundreds of scripts that is tailored to each station... now if the message was inherently political i might see it differently... but it really is not.
well it does hint at the fact that the amount of real reporters out there is considerably less, due to these all pretty much broadcasting most likely from the same source
well... its local news... do you expect a newspaper to be completely different in every area for which it has local news or just that the local news part is different?
i was under the impression that local news would still be running news on their own'
news sure... that is not news but self promotion
You don't think there's something wrong with all of these news stations being handed scripts from on high?
for self promotion? nope.
That maybe something can possibly go awry with such a system?
It's not promotion. What are they promoting? What are they selling?
the name "self promotion" should give you a hint on what they are promoting ๐
what exactly are they promoting there though?
All i'm getting from them in those clips is the "listen to us, not fake news" lipservice
That doesn't answer the general question of if whether or not you don't see anything wrong with this.
its the same thing as cnn saying that they sell apples ๐
Deflection with an attempt of humor is not an answer.
In fact it's pretty indicative that you don't have one.
it IS the same thing
the ONLY difference is that they used the local staff instead of making a general spot
i'd say they're using local staff TO make a general spot
(which in this case is just the easier route to go)
sure
again... if they would be pushing some sort of political narrative i would object to it... but that is really just self promotion...
but they're just preaching that CNN propaganda bull of "Theres people pushing agendas with their news, which is dangerous to our values, so listen to us instead"
they're preaching an agenda, about people pushing an agenda
....you don't think the news media pushes an agenda?
sounds political to me tbh
Of course they do.
i don't think that promo is any different that what the rest of the news media does
Because everyone has an agenda: you, me, Jayred, CNN, Tim, Sargon, the alt right, islamist terrorists, etc.
i stopped using an agenda in the 2nd grade!
๐
lol
i don't have an agenda, which is probably why i keep forgeting to buy milk ๐
thats my joke! i'm going to make an agenda to ruin you!
How is it self promotion, though? It seems they're all being told to deliver the same message about what to think to the general public, to me.
that is waht they're doing
i guess in a way it IS self promotion, because they're saying "use us for oyur news instead of "the others""
it is a promotional text that is general enough to work for all stations with little to no changes
they are saying "we are unbiased news and don't report fake news" - exactly what cnn is saying.
This isn't some generalized ,"btw please subscribe" request or anything like that. This is a specific political message with a specific intent being passed down to all of these news agencies.
And there is no disclosure about any of this either.
They are respresenting the information as if they are the originators of it.
what political message would that be?
don't listen to other media, only us because they push an agenda, we don't
^
Which is ironically pushing an agenda.
that is not an political message... that is essentially what every single news outlet says
that is the exact message of the cnn apple spot
the democracy bit is very ironic but other than that...
So you don't see the potential abuse of power here? And let's be frank: a power which has been and will continue to be used?
This doesn't creep you out in the slightest?
unless you believe they are all unbiased, the political message is clear "only listen to us so you don't get other sides of an argument"
again... not political, just promotion
okay, what would you define as political?
But news agencies have taken political stances before, and tried to send political messages before.
This exact message and this exact video, maybe not, but it's still indictative of the structure that's in place.
political would be "gun control is bad" for example
not "we are trustworthy"
I would say it is given the 'fake news is bad' message, especially when you take into account that by 'fake news' they typically mean alternative media.
and yes the structure in place could be abused... but not really that much more than any nationwide channel
so, if Hillary Clinton would say "Don't listen to other candidates, listen to me, i'm trustworthy",
that would constitute non-political to you?
activist news is bad?
politicians are inherently political
so is news
it shouldn't be
any news story will affect your view on society
but that's not politics
news is somethign happened
news inherently is not
and who and where
any and all news,
affects your view on society
Since when does the MSM report on 'just the facts' without a political slant?
even hearing that a litter of kittens is born,
it gives you positivity, makes you feel like the world is doing better
which then can be turned on you if you're told others are not as fortunate and you start to feel bad
doesn't have to be intentional, but it still does
And that's assuming the best.
And don't forget that even the lack of the presentation of a story can be a political stance in and of itself. Even picking and choosing which stories they present, even if they did it 'without a political slant', will itself push a particular political message or agenda.
The Parkland shooting was all over the MSM for days, and is now leading into the gun control discussion again; however, another school shooting which took place only about a week later, one in which the shooter was taken out by a security officer with a gun before he could do any real damage, was barely even mentioned in anything other than that county's local news.
And even afterward, they continue to push the Parkland story.
I wonder why that is, exactly?
And even within the Parkland shooting itself. How many MSM outlets were reporting about not only one, but *four* Sherif's deputies were standing outside of the school doing absolutely nothing while the shooter went on his rampage?
You can use news to further an political agenda, that is not in question. But the news itself is first and foremost something that happened.
In theory, that's how it is supposed to work.
That is what i mean when i say that news in inherently not political while a politician is.
the point of it all is,
Even though the message reported might not be intended to mean anything than promotion,
It tells you that A, these medias are all a mouthpiece for the same goal.
And if they all publish the same "narrative" the people will be inclined to believe the message because "look, they all say it"
and B, the content of their message is an attempt to get you to tune out other sources in favor of theirs, which can as they say themselves, be dangerous to a democracy, when people only get 1 account of things
The news isn't supposed to be political, but right now it's just a mouthpiece for a particular political agenda.
And we're not talking about the idea of news, but the practical reality as it exists right now.
also news "SHOULD" be inherently not political,
Modern news is factiosn telling their take on an incident, rather than report the incident itself
And back to the spot... yes i see the potential for abuse (mainly because the stations run under different banners) but the spot itself is not different to other spots.
Too many journalists see their work as an opportunity to promote their own pet political notions, rather than a responsibility to inform the public and let their readers and viewers decide for themselves.
I know of very few people i would call journalists.
Writer/Activist/Idiot is a lot more common.
haha
That is funny.
the shadow of the jew ๐
also, you don't have to call them journalists falko, they themselves do it
I can call my self the queen of holland, doesnโ5 make it true ๐
They're presenting themselves as journalists, though, and calling what they do journalism.
When in reality it's political activism.
no but thats because thats an incredibly off claim,
If you said you were a journalist, some people would believe you
i thought marx was french
Marx was a german jew
kind of funny, his work created two of the most hated political ideologies of the 20th century
It was released on february 21st though
anyhow i'm off, its nearing midnight
The funny thing is that the idiots in the US still take it seriously.
โ stay black
๐
Nah, no black bloc for me tonight ๐
Poke weedle everyday
Found a pick of the shooter and her husband https://i.pinimg.com/originals/4a/67/4a/4a674afdda210035252c93b3177caef5.jpg
Wow...
That was fast.
