are you thinking of Hägar the Horrible?

Or his gay bear doppelganger, Hägar the Homo?

When the first article of the constitution prevents censorship by the US government and now seeing that an official arm of the US government is censoring discussion, then I see that is very worth discussing. It is a clear clamp down on the peoples liberty to discuss events.

What does your constitution have to do with anything? Your government is NOT preventing you from speaking your mind. The military is preventing you from doing so in a particular time and place of their choosing which happens to be owned by them leaving all other avenues open. By that logic your freedom of movement and assembly are also denied because you are not allowed to enter top secret government facilities and hang out there with known terrorists.

I mean, look at it this way. What would happen if you were to go to a public recruitment rally and try to do the same sort of thing there? Because this is a recruitment rally.

My government isn't, beacuse I am Canadian. I was referring to the first article of the constitution in the US.

They own the twitch channel. The chat on the stream is an official form of communication by the US government. This is censorship on a US government form by the US government against the first amendment.

Okay, guys. I need to ask you this: have any of you played The IdolM@ster Cinderella Girls: Starlight Stage? If so, who knows Kaede Takagaki here?

...Didn't you ask the same thing in the anime thread?

Free speech isn't protected on the internet. US likes to think it is, but constant threats have jepeordized and made it more difficult to defend. First companies threatened it under the guise of protecting kids and claiming that they don't want certain content on their platform. This time instead it's the government. The issue is companies normalized censorship. And the government followed what any streamer on twitch would do.

>complains about colonialism
>NSG is colonizing this thread

When the US government is actively censoring gamers who talk about war crimes from the US yeah this needs to be discussed. Its is actual non ironic gamer suppression.

G*mers deserve oppression smh. Based US army doing what Jack Thompson lost the nerve for.

[The first Galactic Republic]

You can play as both.

And the history channel is not exactly the most accurate of sources. You do understand pirates did not act like the movies or games where they are just going around exchanging cannon volleys with enemy ships?

I understand the most famous pirate ever was so unsubtle that he walked around with lit fuses in his beard and carried like six guns.

Yeah, real stealthy.

To be fair, Edward only becomes an Assassin at the end of his pirate career.

Blackbeard was not how all pirates acted. The idea of pirates going around and constantly engaging in naval battles against government ships is a fun one, but not really accurate. Pirates preferred to get treasure in less violent ways and thus tended to use surprise by sneaking up on vessels to persuade them to hand over their things.

Difference being is that streamers are private people owning there own businesses that can do whatever they want. This is tax payer funded and owned by the government. The government is on a form they own censoring people from talking about the USA's evil doing.

[Ifreann]

Your getting up in arms about nonissues. The Assassin's of the games have nothing to do with the ultra radical sect of Nizari Isma'ilism that existed during the Crusades so why is a Norse Viking such a stretch?

Assassin implies sneaky. Vikings ain't sneaky. Neither are pirates. There's a reason I quit that franchise once I heard about Black Flag.

I don't think you understand the plot of these games.

Something about magic apples and aliens or something. I don't know, the plot was nonsense frankly. I was just there to jump off buildings and shiv fools.

[Aeritai]

So far the only criticism I see on Valhalla in the gameplay trailer is that the game is not about assassins anymore. Which doesn't bother me since I'm not very good at stealth and the fact that I get to go on raids is pretty cool.

Then they shouldn't call it ASSASSINS Creed.

On a different note, I think Red Dead 2 bugged on me. Cause the next story mission refuses to show up.

It did have a lot of wacky nonsense, one element of which is that the Assassins aren't just assassins, if you get me. They're a whole counter-illuminati secret society. Their thing isn't just stealth operations to kill specific people, they have some poorly explained philosophy about freedom or something.

All I'm saying is that it is normal for streams to block people, and the fact it's the US army makes little difference. It goes into the same vein as the Blitzchung issue, because to address modern issues is uncomfortable and not beneficial for the hosting party.

It doesn't mention killing people either.

There might be legal implications to the US Army, as agents of the government, blocking people on Twitch. President Trump isn't allowed to block people on Twitter, because he's the President.

[The Huskar Social Union]

Assassins good, Templars comically bad, the sun was gona explode till a bunch of aliens killed themselves to stop it or something. Stupid over the top modern day scenes.

Thats it iirc

I mean seeing as pirates are pretty staunch opponents of Empires and such, it makes sense that Assassins philosophy would resonate with them. As for the vikings, if say the Templars were in control of the monarchies of western Europe, it would make sense for the Assassins to support the people actively fighting said monarchies.

Except for the fact that the President is the leader of the government and the military and the military is funded by the government. So it is a part of the goverment.

It's funded and payed by the government and does services for the government. It is owned by the goverment.

It makes a big difference. Streamers are private people while the Army is government owned. As such it should not be allowed to ban anything, as the first amendment applyes to it.

[Ameriganastan]

Jesus, they banned people from a Twitch stream and you're acting like it's 1984. Give it a freaking rest already.
