    Speaking for myself and only myself:
    I'm not opposed to "bad things happen and not everyone are good guys". I'm opposed to them constantly trying to one-up how shitty a faction is.

    We've always had the implied inequality within PanO which is how the Neovatican thrives enough to maintain a flipping standing army, thanks to having control of a large number of resurrection lotto tickets. It's the basis of the Ateks concept as well, where someone can't afford the tech to prevent them from dying in a horrible accident because the signs are digitally rendered rather than physical.

    We know that there's shittiness in these factions. We don't need an ever-expanding line of shittiness+1. We've had PanO corporations hiring the Druze to go after Caledonians on Ariadna, and then employing those same Druze as a not-too subtle "screw you" to those same Caledonians and to justify requesting PanO forces for security.

    We didn't need some rando-ultranationalist pseudo-Viking LARP survivalist group to suddenly materialize now on top of the previous shittiness.

    Maybe 90% of your players "don't care about the lore", but throwing that kind of nonsensical statement out is silly.

    If you think the Poland you seem to live in is "ethnically pure", you're in such total denial.

    Jews, Karaims, Lemkos, Roma, Tatars, Vietnamese, Koreans, a fairly large Kenian community, lots of Middle-Easterners, Sikh, etc.

    Exactly. There's writing a "bad guys" faction, there's making them playable and then there's trying to top each further Bad Guyz Fakshun with the other, for pure shock value.

    Appeal to authority-fallacy, your argument is invalid.
    Marxist ideas have been a demonstrable failure with multiple countries as cases, over 100 years, and caused the suffering and deaths of literally over 100 million people. The failure of his economic viewpoint is as self-evident as Saudi Arabia doesn't have womens rights in their interest.

    It is laughable to suggest that you need a PhD in economy to say that Karl Marx's economic mind set is the biggest failure known to mankind, as it laughable to suggest that I need to be a 4-star chef to say that a McDonald's burger tastes like shit.

    LoL.

    Compared to what it was before WW2 "this is margin". I've never said minorities do not exist at all there, but 96.7% are of same/major ethnicity so ... well . *

    But yeah, prove me that I was "technically" wrong ^^

    Fun fact: there are 3.200 Jews in Poland. For scale there are probably around ~1.3 milion poles in UK xD So yeah, sure Poland has a Jewish minority :D

    *obvious disclaimer as this was changed very recently due to Poland accepting big influx of war refugees but this is not exactly much impactfull as they are of very similar cultural circle.

    Well, just like when you're cash-poor McDonald's appeals, when you're idea-poor, so does Marx.

    Ah, classic case of Donning-Kruger effect then.

    I could get into how his 19th century works are relevant again in 21st century gig economy and corporate capitalist oppression, but you simply do not have the capacity to participate even at my basic level, so I'll skip that entirely.

    Of all the most cringe things you've posted on this forum, this takes the cake though.

    So you're saying you're an economist and you don't view Marx as an abject failure? Jesus fucking Christ, that's insane. Literally. Are you the kind of "economist" as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who thinks the Green New Deal is actually economically sustainably and thinks that people working more jobs reduces unemployment rate?
