  • There’s a CNN polling data from the end of last year that shows only 12% of republicans are satisfied with the amount of information released on the Epstein case, 21% are dissatisfied and the majority are don’t care or don’t know. Now those numbers have gone more in the favor of what the administration is doing compared to polling on the same questions 6 months earlier where 4% were satisfied and 40% was dissatisfied. I don’t think I need to find polling data on Trumps popularity, I think it’s pretty obvious that his support among his base is high. So there’s an obvious disconnect between supporting Trump and believing the Epstein files are properly handled.

    Overall the sentiment in the republican party is that they’re not satisfied with how much has been released and I think the change in the trend has less to do with MAGA falling in line and more to do with them getting disillusioned by the administration, because what happened between those 6 months was that the first files were released and they were heavily redacted. Of course hardcore MAGA accepted what they saw and were happy to move on but the rest expected to get something and the administration tried to serve them nothing. I feel like that falls perfectly in line with why MAGA turned on Bondi.

    EDIT: Forgot to add that this doesn’t mean they’re against Trump, this only means they’re against Bondi. That also explains why your family would still be on the Trump train because in their eyes Trump did nothing wrong.


  • I don’t see why they aren’t thrilled about her.

    Because Trump sold them the Epsteins files during his campaign. He promised to release the files and the list in full transparency. Most of the MAGA base is now invested in the Epstein files and want to see billionaire pedophiles punished. Pam Bondi acted like MAGA usually wants her to act, except this time she was acting against MAGA. She interrupted and attacked the people who asked the questions MAGA wanted answers for and instead of giving any answers she dodged the questions and wasted time on incoherent rants instead of giving the information MAGA wants. She did everything “right” but she did it against the wrong crowd.


  • You do realize every specific similarity you brought up also applies to Hytale and Vintage story (except for the pumpkin part because in Vintage story they don’t grow in the wild). Could it be that there’s a completely different reason those similarities exists?

    Perhaps grass texture with the side showing dirt just looks visually more appealing than an entirely grassy block? Pretty much every minecraft-like game does this. Even Terraria does the same thing in a 2D space.

    As for pumpkins and trees. Pumpkins in the real world also grow in groups. If we consider the fact that the pumpkin has to be a cube there’s nothing specific about it growing in the forest in clumps, that’s just imitating the real world. Similar thing with trees. Most trees also grow from a single trunk that’s sprawls wide at the top. That’s just how trees are.

    And what even is “minecraft-like” terrain generation? I’m pretty sure Minecraft has gone through at least 3 different variations of world generation. The latest version of Minecraft world gen looks nothing like what is generated in Allumeria, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say the opposite because Minecraft latest world gen is very refined and Allumeria simply doesn’t have that level of refinement in its world gen. Allumeria world gen is closer to the alpha/beta version of Minecraft world gen.

    What I’m getting at is that the specifics in that single image can be what make it look like it’s Minecraft, but there’s a reasonable explanation for all of those things and any resemblance ends up coincidental. It looking like Minecraft is just as coincidental as my picture looking like KCD.
