Isn’t that part of what made the Occupy Movement so threatening to capitalists? The problem was however that it had no direction. The point was disruption, but there wasn’t a clear goal or demand till the end.

I’m all for memes, but what specifically would a general strike accomplish other than the governing class using every method, including police violence and fear, to immediately try to suppress the opposition?

In a society where the majority of people live paycheck to paycheck (by design) a 10 day strike will never happen. You’d be lucky to get 5% of the populace to participate.

Damn that was a quick reply.

Don’t particularly care about the point of your thread.

Simply providing context since you seem to be confused as to why you can’t find a home based on your replies in this thread.

Please understand that “freedom of speech” does not mean that your speech is more important than the next persons. If you decide to start spewing hateful, racist, bigoted shit, the next person has the right to tell you to fuck off and block you, or ban you if it’s their instance. This isn’t treading on your freedom of expression or suppressing your speech, this is simply the other person exercising their right to not have to hear your shit and choosing instead to show you the door.

For example, if you invite someone into your home and they start spouting shit, you have the right to show them the door as you don’t have to listen to them go off in your home and around your guests. Similarly if you’re banned for not following the rules of an instance you’re not “being suppressed” you’re just a cunt.

Want to talk shit from a realm of safety without being called out? Do it from your own home where people don’t have to be around you. Make your own instance, or find a like-minded cesspool willing to put up with you.

Downside is Catan is fucking boring. It’s one of those games where most of the time you’re stuck waiting for your next turn. 5-6 player add on just makes the game infinitely worse. Out of the expansions, Seafarers is nice since it gives you more to do, tho the standalone Starfarers is my go to pick if I gotta play Catan since it sorta has the best parts of all expansions plus random encounters and a more even start. I also like that in the 5-6 player mode 2 players take their turns simultaneously. Tho Catan still isn’t my go-to of board games.

What does it say?

Here’s some suggestions, just games I find I get lots of play out of and people are always willing to play.

Dune Imperium is probably my favorite. It’s a deck builder with worker placement. It’s got a lot of different strategies you can take to win, there’s not one set way. Dune Imperium: Uprising is an updated (for the 2nd movie) version of the game that fixes some things from the first one, tho I think I still prefer the original. This one is a bit more serious, but I’m including it because it’s my favorite.

Everdell is a great game and very easy to get into. Mostly worker placement with some engine building. Cute theme and it looks great on the table. Definitely recommend giving it a look. Avoid the expansions when buying, they might add too much to the gameplay. There is an updated version Everdell: Farshore, which I’ve heard is better, tho I haven’t played it.

Clank! And any in that series are also super friendly and easy to get into. It’s a dungeon exploration deck builder. Personally I’d recommend going with Clank! Catacombs, which is the updated version that adds a tile based map so each play through is a little different. I have not played Clank! In Space or any of the others.

7 Wonders is a fun pick and pass type game. You build up your city and try to win via military, economic, or scientific power. Easy to pick up, and has more strategy in it than first glance. The 2-player version 7 Wonders: Duel has to be my favorite 2 player game. Note on Duel, if you get it, the only expansion I’d pick up is Agora, Pantheon just isn’t as impactful.

Black Hole Rainbows, absolutely ridiculous game, everyone scoffs at it at first and then has a stupid good time playing it. It’s stupidly colorful and definitely over produced but that’s part of the charm. If you can find a copy, buy it. Hard to get right now.

The Crew is solid.

The Gang too, which is sorta similar. I’ll bring a bag of board games and only end up playing The Gang all night if it comes out too early.

Me and my friends are terrible at that game apparently. Our poor Legacy game world…

I was making a joke, but yeah

Damnit. I see now how you got me by censoring your other post

First time I’ve appreciated someone censoring words in a post.
