Topic | Again, why is Trump having rallies instead of running the country? |
Esrac 08/23/17 12:20:33 PM #40 | gunplagirl posted... Esrac posted...Rallies is, like, the one thing Trump is really good at. Look, I understand you dislike Trump. I'm not especially fond of him either. But to deny that he had a lot of rather successful rallies, at least compared to his competition during the election, seems to be denying reality. He's an entirely unimpressive, perhaps even appalling, President and he's certainly no Obama, but he does have a certain charisma that could really draw a crowd. --- |

Esrac 08/23/17 2:53:07 AM #48 | Kelystic posted... shame, would have prefer them to be seperate I can see why they did it. 17 and 18 don't really have many stand-out showings the way characters like Goku, Piccolo, Vegeta, and Gohan do. They're relatively generic. The only special ability of either I can think of is 17's Barrier. Making them a duo gives them something that really makes them stand out on the roster --- |

We don't have the full roster announced yet, but these are the confirmed: Super Saiyan Goku Super Saiyan Blue Goku Super Saiyan Vegeta Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta Super Saiyan 2 Young Gohan Super Saiyan Trunks Piccolo Krillin Android 16 Android 18 + 17 Frieza (4th form) Perfect Cell Fat Majin Buu I expect we will see more, like Tien, Yamcha, Kid Buu, Gotenks, Vegito, Super Saiyan Rose Goku Black, Beerus, etc. I never really thought about it before, but DBZ only really has one female fighter worth anything. I guess they could add Videl. Maybe Bulma as a comical character. --- |

Topic | Formally recognize AntiFa as a terrorist organization |
Esrac 08/22/17 3:44:19 PM #95 | http://dailycaller.com/2017/07/07/antifa-listed-among-domestic-terrorism-group-by-new-jersey/ New Jersey is a step ahead of you. The article even includes a video of an antifa activist pepper spraying a woman in a MAGA hat immediately after she finishes talking to the press. I know it's a right-leaning source, but we seem to have this situation where left-leaning sources just don't cover, or downplay, the bad behaviour of Antifa. Probably because they either support their stated goal of combating fascism or because they don't want to validate the claims of people on the Right who criticize Antifa. I'm not aware of anything lethal they've done yet, but antifa are known to commit acts of violence and vandalism. Throwing M80s into crowds, throwing glass bottles, pepper spraying people, throwing tear gas (but the wind was against them so they gassed themselves), stalking and assaulting journalists at G20, beating people over their heads with metal bike locks, etc. That snopes article became questionable to me the moment they try to say she probably wasn't throwing glass bottles, but maybe just picking up trash. Please. --- |

Esrac posted...RebelElite791 posted...Cj_WlLL_VVlN posted...RebelElite791 posted...Why is mass colonization of the Americas a good thing that deserves praise? No, there is entirely valid reason to think that. Reality doesn't follow sci-fi timeline nonsense. If his ancestors, on his mother's and father's sides, going back numerous generations, had not immigrated to the US when they did (or pre-revolutionary war colonies depending on the circumstances), none of the series of events would've occurred that would have necessarily had to occur to culminate in his existence. In the same way that if any number of events did not occur in history, we'd have a very different present. If his appreciation for Columbus is his influence on the colonization process had a positive impact on Tv's eventual existence, then it isn't really pointless for him because the European colonization of North America is an essential event for his existence. The same is the case for every American. --- |

No, he never would've been born in the country (or countries) his ancestors came from. The chain of events, spanning hundreds of years, would have been so radically different that anyone who is currently alive in the United States would not likely be alive today had Europeans not successfully colonized North America and displaced the native popultion. We would have a radicallu diffrent world with a uniquely seperate group individual descendents. Unless there's some sci-fi timeline shenanigans where we could expect ourselves to exist more or less the same, except now we have a cockney accent or something. --- |

I'm okay with legislation that protects drivers from criminal or civil penalty if happen to injure or kill protesters either accidentally or while escaping a hostile crowd. Don't want to get hit by a car? Don't protest in the street. That doesn't mean I think it's okay to seek out crowds on the sidewalk to run down or what have you. --- |
Topic | does Xenoblade Chronicles have a good story? |
Esrac 08/21/17 6:30:56 AM #11 | FF_Redux posted... I never finished the game, but I loved the music and gameplay until I was overleveled and nothing was a challenge because I decided to explore and do sidequests. It's one of the worst offenders in overleveling in RPGs. XBC really has a top tier sound track ![]() --- |
Topic | does Xenoblade Chronicles have a good story? |
Esrac 08/21/17 6:05:24 AM #9 | The story in XBC was enjoyable, but nothing too special. I liked the game not so much for the perfectly serviceable story, but for the fun gameplay, the cool setting, the awesome soundtrack, the entertaining characters, etc. My only gripe about the game is how easily you can trivialize the content. I mean, if you're, say, 5 levels or more over a boss, then that boss can't challenge you. The way the hit and evasion chance scales with levels means if you're like 5+ levels above a boss, it will barely be able to even touch you. And vice versa, of course, but at least when you're under leveled, you have ways of boosting your accuracy to make up for it. --- |

Esrac 08/21/17 1:53:15 AM #5 | The confederate heroes were traitors to the United States. That's why I want the statues removed from public spaces. I don't condemn completely people like Washington and Jefferson for having owned slaves, I try to judge them for their noble acts and their ignoble acts. Yes, they owned slaves, and that is awful, but they were also heroes who worked to create and maintain our nation. --- |

Topic | Met a SJW last night. AKA - The importance of being able to debate politely. |
Esrac 08/20/17 7:01:20 AM #3 | Milo_Yiannopous posted... At a party and got on to the subject of gender. Everyone was having a debate. Some people had different opinions but it was all polite until some guy started chipping in starting with "let me tell you why most of you are wrong...." and went on a massive monologue for about 5 minutes. Well, yeah, that is one of the reasons SJWs are typically distinguished from otherwise well-meaning people. They can't just advocate for gender, race, etc, they have to be total assholes about it. They've got to use their virtue as a shield and their activism like a cudgel and bully people who don't immediately fall in line. The worst parts are probably when such a person manages to rally the mob to try to destroy someone's life or bully them out of public spaces. And I don't even just mean just going after anti-SJWs, anti-feminists, etc. Just recently, as I heard, a writer for Kotaku UK, Laura Kate Dale got a ton of harassment from SJWs because she wrote an article about TotalBiscuit and moderating harassment. Apparently Anita Sarkeesian took to Twitter to condemn the article and the hoard descended upon her until she and Kotaku UK apologized to the harassers for writing the article. And not long ago, feminist youtuber Laci Green got metaphorically crucified by these outraged warriors because she had the audacity to say she wanted to engage in conversation with seemingly reasonable anti-feminists, instead of no-platforming the lot of them. She was doxxed, harassed, labelled a traitor to women, trans people, PoCs, etc. Especially once it came out that she was dating the YouTuber Chris Ray Gun. --- |

He doesn't really have a stand-out moveset from the series. Maybe his Barrier, but that's about it. At least 16 has the Rocket Punches and Hell Flash and can fill the Big-And-Tanky niche. He might be the game's Zangief/Potemkin. tennisdude818 posted... Strange to see 17 out especially considering how OP he is in DBS. To be fair, they probably had the roster decided and mid-development before the newest DBS story arc. Maybe they'll add him later as DLC. --- |
