  • Palestine and Venezuela are not even remotely similar, while both have been screwed over by US stupidity, they are so vastly different in circumstance I personally find comparisons to be a little silly.

    Venezuela is well known to have screwed up its own economy in previous leadership, while spurred from US sanctions and interference it was ultimately their own actions that caused their economic collapse. Maduro has not helped with these issues and has only helped expand these problems. Though not nearly as problematic as previous leaders.

    And while I personally get the hate Venezuela has towards the US, Jesus they are playing with fire. The US is out for blood, and will likely flatten the country just because they can, its going to be quite bad, and very sad.

    At the point that US starts flattening Venezuela, killing hundreds a day and planning to rebuild it, then that would be a more fair comparison.






  • Yeah, I have a friend who lives in Venezuela, he and his family can barely afford to eat, and I mean barely. Beans everyday and nothing else for years. I tried to send him some computer parts and it was going to be over 5 grand to send them, so I couldn’t afford that, but his pc was genuinely very low end 5 years ago and I know he hasn’t been able to upgrade, especially with all the money going to his 9 other family members living in the 1 bedroom apartment.

    But whatever lies you have to tell yourself to sleep at night buddy.






  • Its one steam now, ff7 rebirth. Don’t have it yet coz money is tight and all, but so far, im at the part where the Turks are trying to blow up the plate on sector 7 and its fantastic. Runs very well on the steam deck and man is it good. There’s alot lost in translation though, the game has an entirely different tone. Its much more upbeat that the og. Which is fine, but the depressing world ending feel of the first disk is very lost in translation.
