I wouldn't be so confident. This will never stick in people's memories; the talking points will change and everyone will be back to being good patriots. Iraq, Vietnam, etc should have been clear enough (for Americans at least), but it's all long forgotten.

Anyone who legalizes fully driverless vehicles should be forced to use them for the rest of their life.

But can anyone ELI5 how you all ended up in this state

First off, the US government has always been full of absolute ghouls and clowns. That said, the well-being of the typical american has been on a downward trend for a while, and people are seeking radical change. This isn't really new, Obama ran on change in 2008 (and then governed like a Republican, alienating voters), and Trump obviously did the same, though in a more unhinged clownish way in 2016. Biden only won a (very narrow) victory in 2020 because Trump was so openly disgusting, helped by mishandling of COVID being an obvious giant talking point.

how you get back out?

The various alphabet agencies, national guard, and police forces have to be purged and reformed at all levels nationwide, then various actions (political arrests and blackmail, mostly) taken that effectively decapitate and dismantle the republican party while being subtle enough that they don't cause armed rebellion. This would require the dems to be ideologically opposed to fascism, which they aren't (see their support for Israel as one easy example).

What’s the impact of this individual being Speaker?

Nothing too special, the government probably gets shut down at some point when they try to hold funding hostage, but at the end of the day business as usual (which is, to be clear, very bad) continues apace.

Republicans are still twice as likely as Democrats to agree with the core beliefs of the QAnon conspiracy theory.

Wut? There are people who believe that the democrats are all satanic pedophiles who are still registered democrat?

I desire the end of America and indeed all capitalist states, ideally before they slide even further into fascism in the near future. Death to the Israeli state, and death to any states that support it.

Beans is one thing, but cold beans??? That's a step too far, I now uncritically support Xi.

Wait what the fuck, that stream is from fucking Reuters and not some edgy teenager?

Collective punishment is a war crime.

Unlimited Yub-Yub on the core planets.

This is why we require mod approval for new comms.

/tg/ maintains the best pirated TTRPG repositories as far as I'm aware, so there are at least two good things.

Low-income families should eat long pig taken from the rich.

Should've killed grandpa apparently.

85GB is actually shockingly huge for Counter-Strike considering CS:GO was like 16GB. For comparison, Doom Eternal is 80GB, Cyberpunk is 70, and Elden Ring and Armored Core VI are both 60.

The sound card's just recommended though so whatever.

If Counter-Strike 2 is so good, why is there no Counter-Strike 2 2?

We're already at "yeah the holocaust was bad but the holodomor was worse"

it was just for one night

Actually it's uncertain how many times it happend

When India launched their nukes, Pakistan would probably nuke India, fearing they were being targeted. Article 5 gets triggered and every NATO member is at war with India, which might involve nuking them, might not. Russia would probably launch their nukes in response to NATO countries firing their nukes at India because, again, they'd think they might be being targeted. If NATO didn't launch nukes and just carries out a conventional attack on India, Russia probably doesn't get involved militarily.
