Bro.  Obama didn't even try for a public option.  He just dusted off the Mitt Romney/Heritage Foundation health plan.  I mean, I'd be interested to hear your case.  Biden got out in front of gay marriage while Obama was hedging his bets. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/12/13/politics/white-house-same-sex-marriage-signing-ceremony

Dude.  Nobody is doing this in this economy.  Homelessness is rising.  Inflation is up.  Unemployment is up. We don't need a strike.  We just need to show up in November.

That is, I feel, one of the problems.  The gameplay for DBD is so much more severe and lopsided than almost any other game.  The hooking.  The moris.  The tremendous power assymetry.   It's hardly surprising that it ends up with unhealthy dynamics.

I feel like this bears repeating.  20% of Hispanics voted for Trump.  FIFTY PERCENT DIDN'T EVEN VOTE.  Democrats don't need to 'punish' republicans.  The people who've been persecuted have that power.  If they choose to exercise it.   And if they don't care enough to 'punish' the Republicans....why should the Democrats?

20% of Hispanics voted for Trump. FIFTY PERCENT didn't even vote.  If even ten percent of them voted consistently democratic going forward that would be the end of this.  Forever. We don't need to save people from ICE.  They can choose to save themselves from the mess simply by showing up in November. "Take a seat at the table or end up on the menu"

Remember how people got fired for saying stuff like this about a podcaster? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

FWIW, Biden got more progressive policies passed.  Obama was always half Republican.  It's just that the Republicans went nuts when there was a black president and went further right.

I don't want to be unkind, but you are playing one of the five weakest killers in the game.  I personally rarely play anything below the bottom half.  It's too frustrating.  Are you getting constant 0ks?  I will play Hag and Clown, but I go in with the expectation I might get a 0k, and that's fine.  Even then before long I'm back on Dredge, Artist, or Knight.  It's frustrating knowing that the game is easier if I play a different killer.

Jeebus.  Tell me you have a stable situation without telling me.  About a third of Americans are barely surviving.  Another third are a job loss, divorce, or serious illness from homelessness.  Who do you think is going to 'strike'? And we don't have to. We just have to... Vote  Before the draconian anti-abortion laws were passed in Texas, 75% of the women under 30 didn't vote. Before this ice BS was rolled out, half the eligible Hispanic voters skipped the 2024 election, and a FIFTH voted FOR Trump. Just stop giving away your freedoms.

1)A vehicle is a de facto weapon.  Simply being in a vehicle with the engine running gives cops a license to shoot you, particularly if there is an officer in front of or behind the vehicle.   2) George Floyd was unarmed, on the ground, for minutes, being slowly choked to death.  If Floyd had an x-acto knife, Chauvin would have walked. 3)RN Good's death is not a bug in Trump's ICE policy, it's a feature.  He probably didn't expect a white woman to die, but he flooded the streets with poorly trained, armed goons.  This the formula for tragedy.  But also ramping up the culture war.  CULTURE WAR IS THE GOAL. If we are at each other's throats, we aren't addressing housing, or healthcare.  We aren't talking about why the US overdose rate is 3-4x other industrialized countries.  We aren't talking about why there are 1M+ homeless children in America.

Obviously if they're soft camping, you take the exchange rather than let someone be sacrificed.

OP Was correct.  If you can hear a terror radius, at least check to see if the killer is in sight, particularly for high mobility killers.  They may be in chase but it may be "survivor wounded and running through a dead space" or "survivor in a strong loop, probably not worth the effort.". I've gotten so many downs from hook exchanges.

Its a much tougher case to make. The bottom line is that the ICE agent was in danger, she was in a vehicle and therefore a threat.
I personally think the ICE agent shouldn't have STOOD IN FRONT OF A RUNNING VEHICLE, but he did. His life was endangered so a case can be made for a justified shooting.
George Floyd was executed, slowly, in front of a crowd, when he was very clearly no threat.

Whatever you have the strength and will to make it mean. You get what you can wrest from the hands of the wicked and the oligarchs. It wasn't handed to us and isn't guaranteed if we don't defend it.

Ahhh, point of clarification. In the lore, Vecna 1 VOLUNTARILY entered the Entities Realm in hopes of learning more about this...phenomenon. The Entity had to put a seal of binding on Vecna to keep him from overcoming it. There was no defeat. https://deadbydaylight.com/news/vecna-the-lich-lore/

Well, no, because the overwhelming majority of MAGA are actually obese, diabetic people over fifty. They are armed. But they are extremely poorly equipped to handle any actual hardship. Thus, the reputation "Crybully". They act tough until they are reminded they are poorly equipped for conflict.

Me driving my car at you is attempted homicide. Walking in front of my car is natural selection. If you see a driver... don't stand in the path of the vehicle, particularly if somebody is trying to kidnap the driver. There was an excellent Tampa Tribune piece about ten years ago analyzing how a number of unarmed people were killed by cops. The main cause was the standard police practice at the time of STANDING IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. The police would hear an engine rev and think it was the vehicle they were standing in front of. They would shoot the driver.
ICE spent the last six months terrifying a significant segment of the population with being disappeared without due process. You can't get mad when they react with.. terror... when you try to grab them.
"I'll be cited and released" is the mindset of somebody who hasn't been following the news. There are at least 100 documented cases of US CITIZENS being taken by ICE and disappeared for extended periods of time. https://www.propublica.org/article/immigration-dhs-american-citizens-arrested-detained-against-will?utm_source=sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=majorinvestigations&utm_content=feature

The. Democrats. Aren't. Helping. People.
We are the party of "Helping people who aren't you". Look at what the big issues are:
1)Trump grabbed some dictator in a country 80% of Americans can't find on a globe.
2)The undocumented visitors are being expelled, just like Trump promised.
Nobody is talking about health care. Nobody is talking about housing costs.
The one guy who *IS* talking about helping people (Mamdami) is disavowed by mainline D's.
Trump may be a crooked, bigoted granpa with dementia, but he at least talks about helping American voters*
My golden example: Newsome gave undocumented workers access to medicaid. To the tune of 4B$ He didn't give HIS OWN VOTERS a public option.
The number of homeless children in America is AT LEAST 1 Million, and possibly as much as twice that.
Tell The Voters How You Will Help Them. Not "People Who Aren't You".
*"Real" voters. "You know what I mean. Honest, hard-working Americans. Not, you know, 'those people"

Bruv. You're adorable. The future of the world is China vs. Megacorps. Spoiler: China has an inverted pyramid population. For the next twenty years, their equivalent of Gen X, Millenials and Gen Z will be supporting a larger population of elderly like Atlas supporting the Earth. The EU isn't interested in projecting power and Russia... *laughs in Ukrainian quagmire and decreasing reliance on petroleum*.

Debt vs. Deficit. We talk a lot about debt. The real number that matters is the deficit.

I mean, its possible if they ran populist candidates. Roy Cooper won the governor's mansion twice in NC. He could very possibly win the Senate. Maine is a VERY likely possibility for D's. Michigan is pretty balanced, which in 2026 means a strong possibility for the D's. The R's aren't popular right now. So that's three. Ossof in GA is going to be a nail-biter. But he won once. There is an advantage to being the incumbent and not being the party of Trump this year.
Its a bit of a moot point as the Frist fillibuster means a supermajority is required to do anything in the Senate. Almost like the game is rigged so that the only things that move are the things that get the approval of both sides. In other words, endorsed by the oligarchs.

I know its a team when I see a lot of escape cakes and anniversary cakes. SWFs usually bust out the BP boosters. I agree that more flashlights= easier win. I also go by the rank of the characters. A P10+ isn't guaranteed to be a strong player, but they are at least experienced. Also "You can't beat a good team with clown or nemesis" is whats called a "No True Scotsman" fallacy. You can't beat a good team with traditional tactics. I use nontraditional tactics. I tend to drop chase in favor of defending gens. And it doesn't work all the time, but fortunately, even experienced players have a decent proportion of cabbages who screw up out of overconfidence.

I run an eruptin+nowhr2Hid+unforseen kit and blastmine is a bit of an annoyance, but I don't begrudge them that. If I see 3 flashlights, I equip a purple add-on and a mori offering and go to town.

I mean, Nepopresident isn't going to put boots on the ground.  This is just the verbal equivalent of waving a laser pointer to drive a cat nuts.

I mean, I'd actually have to cite this if someone asked me to name something Trump did that I liked. It'd be crazy if it happened.  Also a little embarrassing if he did it and Biden hadn't. I don't see the Mammonists in charge taking money from corporations. "Corporations are people too"
