Aren't women in that entire region historically behind in track record? I think women in the Sassanid Empire were treated like shit as well. Seems like even without Islam, it'd be shit. Not to say it doesn't play a part of it, because it does.

What do you expect from society a billion years ago, women were treated like shit everywhere.

The problem is that now in 2017 women are still treated like cattle in
muslim countries.

I agree with you. Just that whole area is generally "shit".

Cept for Egypt pre-Roman occupation. Women had it pretty good there.

How dare you attempt to blame this on Obama, you fucking coward.

It's PSU

This is my response

Why would you want people that hate their country so much they won't even stay for a second to defend it, let alone die for what they believe in?

What an absolute joke of a post. Who the fuck expects familys in these war-torn countries to just sit there and wait to die? This is such a stupid fucking opinion from someone who obviously has never feared for his own and his family's lives in his own fucking home.

If my family didn't care about their country and neighbors, I wouldn't even associate with them. These people are pathetic, end of discussion.

You would raise your kids in a war torn country? You'd be 100% ok with everyone you love in danger?

They would learn what we fight for and what we need to do to ensure horrible things like this never happen again. They would learn nothing other than how to let your homeland rot and burn by running away.

So no one else quoted this (which surprises me), but what?

Dude if you were a father and had a sexy wife and a child you loved in a war torn country who was only like 4, you know you wouldn't be saying "okay it's time to fight" to the both of you. You'd want them in a safer place and probably want to be with them. But if you felt so obligated to be bad ass and fight in that country, then by all means go ahead.

I just find it silly you're saying something like that when, as pointed out before, you've probably never felt your life in danger, much less the need to protect others lives.

Yeah, he went too far. One thing I will say. He's getting shit done. That he said he'd do. Even though I don't like the policies. If Hilary had been elected nothing would have changed and she certainly wouldn't have done anything in the time span he has. I just hope he does the good that he said he would. Like crushing ISIS. Which was armed and funded by our previous president. And bush armed the ones before them. But let's not bring that up, right? Why do people call Trump out but not the other presidents? Trump deserves to be called out on this. But no one called out Bush or Obama for numerous bad things they did.

Well you should know by now that American foreign policy = arming moderates, who later get pissed off because America did something, and they turn against them.

Bush collapsing the Iraqi government and kicking almost everyone out, including an angry military, was the most retarded thing that sped up an already destabilizing region, and thus eventually led to what we have now. Now you could argue him pulling out of Iraq was a bad thing. I'm simply saying going in the first place and handling it like it was, is what mostly got us in this fucked up mess.

I would bet money though that arming the "moderate rebels" in Syria is surely going to ISIS or ISIS affiliated factions, seeing as how they were already shady in the first place. Remember when the war first broke out and for the first two years the media was covering them like freedom fighters?

I even remember CNN doing an interview and they had some prison set up and the guy talking mentioned the one interrogating them was this massively big man who "talked to them" or something like that, when we all know what they were doing. Either way, the reporting in favor of them stopped within the next 6 months or so iirc.

But I heavily digress. If I want to round it all back in

It's mostly because Trump was outright banning people indiscriminately from these 7 countries, even though a lot of them have Visa's and other various means of getting in legally. He overreached with his powers, and the positive thing he DID sign this weekend preventing lobbying for government stuff for the next 5 years if you worked in it, will all be swept under the rug and ignored because he apparently loves the concept of "one step forward, two steps back".

I enjoy your username, Icy.

This is good

it's a shame Trump is stupid though, because this won't make the news at all after his debacle with the banning of refugees from 7 muslim countries. That's gonna be the thing denominating the headlines for the next week.

You guys do know that Iran itself, like inside the country, isn't like Afghanistan or anything right? It's full of some intelligent citizens and they apparently have some pretty good food.

Persians know how to live lavishly. The only shitty thing about them is their government, which was more or less caused by US meddling in the first place.

Also, Iran doing that is just a statement more than anything.

There is no 'best at PVP' everything is viable, its all on you.

I've watched a fucking Weeb take down a guy with the shield in like two counters.


Knights are the best, however

shame nobody plays them though because they're the most fun to fight imo

I really like the options you get when you play as them, they do seem like they can be the hardest to fight if you get someone who is good.

Same for every class, really. Sad to see I can't find any streamers who are Knights mainly.

if peach and i get the chance to play again when you're on he should stream for you, he's pretty good with the pk and it's fun to watch him dodge underneath peoples heavy attacks and treat raiders like they're mad bulls and he's the matador

or you could just download it and play as a knight yourself

Getting tempted

You only have one more day, so hurry up.

Deus Vult

I was a bit annoyed I had to manually make a crusader cross, but overall the chap looks reasonably templar-like.

everyone is a god damn jap though

and if they aren't they seem to be a free hug distributing viking

ytho

Assassins are the best at PvP and quickest, so it makes sense. Shield players can just charge and pick up people left and right.

My only issue with the game is the stupid "revenge" thing they give you when you're doing shit. It seems like such a cop out of "oh you're about to die, here, use this to go OP and fuck people up for a sec."

I think it's supposed to be when you're outnumbered, but I see it acquired a shit ton when it's 1v1.

Practical how? They can't project power outside of the South China Sea, have no global allies willing to confront NATO, and rely on the US and Europe for trade. They produce goods and export them; good luck sustaining their shitty, fragile economy while at war with their biggest trade partner.

No, they'll continue corporate spying and inhumane labor practices to hold power. Peer wars are a thing of a past.

The more he alienates China and pushes them, the more willing they are to get closer ties with Russia, which isn't a win for anyone.

Historically though, China never engages outside forces unless they're pushing up on their borders.

I like 1v1 a lot in this

2v2 is eh. It's not as intense as the 1v1, and not full scale war feely like 4v4

Seems a bit pointless tbh. The most I'd do is provide accurate info on how bad soda is for you, but they should let restaurants dictate themselves if they let that.

Just beat the game. Holy shit that ending, I cannot wait for the free DLC to answer some shit. That's a really great treat, rather than waiting an indefinite amount of time for a sequel to answer it.

Serious spoiler. Don't click if you haven't beaten it.

I need to know if that was Chris Redfield. Many are speculating it's Hulk due to Umbrella. But holy fuck I'm glad both Umbrella is back (possibly, though idk how after the world figured their shit out), and Chris got a makeover, if it is him. I liked his design in 5/6, but this one seems to be going back to his more grounded look of the original.

I just realized you never kill Lucas either. The son of the Bakers that pulls that Saw tier stuff? Unless I'm forgetting, he's still around.

Spoiler

You didn't kill Zoe either. But I think with Evelyn gone. It doesn't matter. They're dead now. At least it seemed that way. Jack said his family could be at peace with her dead.

Just beat the game. Holy shit that ending, I cannot wait for the free DLC to answer some shit. That's a really great treat, rather than waiting an indefinite amount of time for a sequel to answer it.
