Violet Version Resource Update! Today, June 10th, marks my 20th year on this website. Disturbing! To celebrate, I've completed a Violet Version-related project I've been working on for over a year: finalizing its manual. It now has improved formatting, additional clarifying notes, and even a...

Today marks exactly two decades since creating a Smogon account! To reminisce, I would just like to present one of my favorite memories from this website: the 2009 Smogon April Fools' prank. This really must be the greatest April Fools' joke of all time. At the time, I was shocked when it was...

Today is Nakba Day, marking the 77th year since the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from their homeland by Zionist forces. So, it is as good a day as any to post some Palestinian posters. Some of these posters will also give respect to the strength and bravery of Yemen, which I wanted to...

video games should be more expensive. they actually should not even really exist. we are at least 100 years away from video games being a technology that should exist on a large scale: it is immoral that there are people in exploiter countries who play video games for hours a day while there...

loving the idea of thick fat meganium! i never would have thought of that but it makes a lot of sense

the plan is working, president sheinbaum. build the bomb immediately

me imagining the posts i'd be writing right now if the politics thread were still open

Now is the time to go harder than ever. Go to events run by organizations that recognize and make the connection between lgbt struggle and anti-imperialism, then join one of those organizations.

bear in mind that if you're asking for advice about this on a games forum, much of the advice may come from people who themselves are very addicted to video games. it sounds like you will probably figure things out in the end though! if i had to give advice: experiment with other hobbies...

Two questions! Is anyone following the world championship? I am really rooting for Ding Liren. I like the underdog, people have been doubting Ding too much, and I also just instinctively root for the older players. And, do people here enjoy any chess variants, and if so, which ones? I am a...

i agree with other users on ppl in lgbt community needing to get organized. however, lgbt struggle will be doomed if it is not as connected as possible to the struggles of other oppressed people. so joining/working with organizations which understand the necessity of this is key, imo. it is not...

https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/21/middleeast/gaza-war-israeli-soldiers-ptsd-suicide-intl/index.html Here is a CNN article about how we should feel bad for genocidal Israeli soldiers. Remember depraved articles like this when you consider whether to believe the narrative of western media or...

I don't think now is the time to be joking and laughing about the fact that discussion about an ongoing holocaust conducted by the U.S. and Israel is now being restricted

I don't see how the post I just wrote could be considered trolling or inflammatory.

This is the reply I was going to make minutes before the thread was locked: "MrHands, you seem to overestimate Smogon's influence. The Palestinian armed resistance does not act at our behest, I can assure you. One day, when this is all over, I would be proud if I could see or meet a resistance...

True face of liberalism ^

If your position is that "Hamas are terrorists, but they are good terrorists and their terrorism deserves support" or something like that, then I don't really know where that would leave us. It would just be a purely semantic distinction at that point

I'll give you this fardin, I literally don't know how to counter that post. You intentionally listed dozens of governments that you explicitly state do not claim Hamas is a terrorist org. Thanks, I guess? I think I'll just let you keep posting and helping me out I guess?

Just want to be clear on this: that portion of the post wasn't directed at you, DbD. I didn't name the person is was directed at because I didn't want to invite a discussion with them (from what I've seen of their posts, they're aggressive and I don't want to be dealing with that). I'm sorry...
