How would you do a Pizzeria Simulator adaptation for the Charlie trilogy?

How would you do a Pizzeria Simulator adaptation for the Charlie trilogy?

Or I guess now a quadrilogy.

Of the top of my head, we'll need to change the Fourth Closet so that Baby, Charlie, and William all lived so they can fit their roles in this book.

Maybe Charlie buys the rights to Fazbear Entertainment for some reason and starts her own Pizzeria, thus begining the Pizzasim portion.

And then the animatronics begin to come there and then Charlie reveals that it was a trap and burn everything down.

Why has the (US) Democratic Party always been more europhilic than the (US) Republican Party?

It's weird but this is in noway a new phenomenon. Indeed, it has been going on since the Antebellum era. The Southern Democrats were really obsessed with English romantic and chivalric literature, especially the works of Walter Scott. They even portrayed themselves as the true Anglo-Saxon/Norman civilization of America.

Meanwhile, the Republicans only cared about England in so far as if she may intervene in their Civil War. They didn't even look up to England's abolitionism.

This continued towards the World Wars where the Democrats were far more supportive of intervention in Europe. Woodrow Wilson's foreign policy explicitly sought to make the United States a participant in European affairs and to construct a system of international collective security.

However, the Republicans would stop that from happening and even refused to join the League of Nations, an organization that an American president had created.

The Second World War also continued the pattern but to a lesser extent as both Democrats and Republicans generally favored supporting the United Kingdom matireally, and were both hostile to the Nazis even before the war unlike the Kaiser.

Even during the Cold War where both parties were extremely internationalist and America was far more concerned with Asia, the Democrats still managed to edge out by having a more international tone while the Republicans favored an Americentric one.

This is weird since both parties viewed the European democracies as brother countries but the main difference was what they emphasized. The Democrats emphasized them as well as human rights and stuff to boot while the Republicans mainly talked about just America as the last bastion of freedom.

If Marxism was a CK3 religion what virtues and sins would it have?

I decided to create Marxism if it was a religion in CK3 like how Christianity and Islam are in the game. Note: in this, Marxism would be the broader religious group while the Individual ideologies such as Stalinism and Democratic Socialism will be faiths like how Catholicism and Lollardy are both faiths within Christianity in CK3. That would be where all the tenets and doctrines would be decided.

What would be decided on the Religion level is the base virtues and sins each of the Faiths would have by being part of that Religion.

Virtues:

  1. Compassionate: Marxists really like to use compassion or empathy as a gateway to their religion. The more democratic authoritarian types especially like touting it. I know you could argue for deceitful instead since you could argue the Marxists are lying about it, but, the CK3 virtues are meant to represent what the Religion publicly claims so it belongs here.

  2. Just: Marxism is based around the idea of wealthy people controlling the economy as unjust thus making La Revolution and redistriction just. This would mean that Marxism regards being just as an necessary facit of its belief system.

  3. Generous: Marxists generally support giving money to the poor and place the uplifting of the downriden as a major cause to fight for. Their proposal to make everything equal is based around the idea that everyone according to their needs would no longer need any charity and thus be even more generous than the Abrahamic religions with charity as a virtue.

Sins:

  1. Callous

  2. Arbitrary

  3. Greedy

Sins are always the opposite of the virtue and vice versa in CK3 Religions so I simply choose the opposite of the virtues I selected. I could have chosen sadistic instead of callous since compassionate have two opposites but judging by how sadistic Marxists often are, I feel like callous make more sense. Like, the idea of "If you join 5 Nazis in a bar, there are 6 nazis" fits more with the idea that the person they are accusing is callous, as they specifically implied the sixth Nazi aren't necessarily sadistic but their decision to sit make them just as bad if not worse.

This was my ideas, what about yours? What virtues and sins would you propose for Marxism as a CK3 Religion?

A nation can have many flaws and never resolve them and still come out ahead because the good outweighs the bad

I feel this anytime I see things like "China will never be a superpower because it has low birthrates."

People used to say this about the United States as well except that it had a lack of will to fight long wars.

In the latter case, they actually were right. Their problem was that it didn't end up mattering.

The Americans really were a very non committing people. They lost in both the Vietnam and Afghanistan War when they really shouldn't have.

The thing is that let me ask you this: what did losing these wars ultimately do to America?

Beyond jokes about America losing to farmers, literally nothing. Vietnam is now a US ally and Afghanistan is irrelevant as its always been.

And why wouldn't it have? No seriously, if you think rationally, why the hell would losing those wars bring about "an end to American hegemony" or anything?

The most you could get was social unrest best home and it did happen for the Vietnam War.

And I fear it will be the case for the former.

Why is there such a common theme of Americans being extreme in both directions?

What I mean by this is that there's a common theme where one region in the United States is extreme in one direction of a certain topic while another is extreme in the opposite direction.

The clearest example of this is the Antebellum North and the Antebellum South; the North was the most egalitarian place on earth because remember this was before the Gilded Age while the South was the most unequal place on earth at the time.

Besides that; New England was founded by religious extremists who practiced extreme purity while Pennsylvania was founded by religious extremists who practiced (how do I say it?) extreme acceptance and love.

They were both very moralistic people, meanwhile, Virginia was founded by a literal corporation.

Today, America possessed one of the few large portion of the populations as nationalists in the Western world while possessing one of the most self flagellting people.

As well as being the global center of machine worshippers, like, if machine worship was a CK3 religion, 4/5 of the Holy sites would be in the United States, while being the most Luddite people in terms of AI.

I made a TFR super event for all victory scenarios for the 4 Religions fighting over America by Rudyard

How would Oswald Spengler be seen in TNOTL?

For those who don't know, Oswald Spengler was a German polymath who created the Spenglarian theory of history which views history as simple stories of the various "World Cultures."

He was who most inspired Yockey.

Under his theory World Cultures are based upon something called a "prime symbol" which itself was inspired by natural environments. The West which he calls "Faustian Culture" has the prime symbol of infinite space based on the Germanic forests.

World Cultures themselves have two phases; first is the cultured phase where the World Culture is creative and artistic then the civilizational phase where the World Culture abandons true creativity and arts in favor of technical inventions and laws.

He believes the West to have started its culture phase around the 1000s and the civilization phase around the 1800s.

Them at the end of the civilizational phase is Ceaserism, when the people of the World Culture no longer have any drive to govern and would rather deligate power back to a single strongman.

In TNOTL, would Hitler's rise and German dominance be seen as the fulfilment of this theory? How would the Cold War be seen under this lense?

Would America be the last vestage of the old moneyed order? How about Japan?

Do you think Rudyard has gotten help privately?

Do you think after the whole "incident," Rudyard got some type of professional help or maybe talking to his wife, and is so embarrassed he doesn't wanna talk about it?

He did delete the video which shows he did feel ashamed of it and he does seem much more lucid in the videos after the "incident" than even the videos before.

If Yahweh was originally just a warrior storm god why would he have the name "He who causes to be"

I am talking about the theory that Yahweh originally started as a minor storm warrior god.

He who causes to be (Yahweh) besides being a pretty metal name has nothing to do with storms. It's not like there was a myth about the world being created in a storm.

This suggests even in the beginning when Yahweh wasn't the only god or the only god worshipped, he was at least a creator god.

What would a less British United States look like

In the video "The Secret History of the 20th Century" Rudyard made a point that due to the lack of ability of the Natives Americans to put up a fight, the United States was able to have a culture of a small island over an entire continent.

I know he did say that America was created by its British heritage but this idea applies to every other Commonwealth country. If anything the natives of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand were even easier to defeat which could explain why they are more British than America.

If this is true then what would an America without the culture of Britain superimposed on a country the size of a continent look like?

Let's say the United States instead of immediately starting out with 13 colonies, it instead consistent of the Middle colonies (New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia) either by the others abandoning the convention or by the revolution being focused there then gradually conquered the Republic of Southland (name for the independent Southern colonies), Republic of New England, Republic of Louisiana, etc to get the borders of the US we know and love by 1900.

The best comparison I could make is the East India Company conquest of India in that they both featured a regime controlling the richest region of the subcontinent; Bengal in the EIC's case and Virginia and Pennsylvania in the United States's case.

Imagine that but over North America. How much less British would America be?

Theory: Trump is a decoy protagonist

I believe President Donald J. Trump is something TV tropes would call a decoy protagonist. What do I mean by that? Well, he's way less important than people think he is.

He's not going to end US democracy, in fact he has been getting checked by checks and balances, and he's not going to end US hegemony or whatever. America's power in reality has very little to do with things that happen outside America. You could totally end the Petrodollar today, turn Europe into a Chinese ally, and throw the US our of the UNSC permanent member, and it would only make the United States weaker by 3% at most.

And anyone who believes that once he dies the Right would die with him or that the Right is only surviving due to a cult around him is greatly naive.

Many right wingers have distanced himself from him now and this heavily overestimated how key Trump's charisma is and underestimate his specific policies. For example; he won the Rust Belt mostly thanks to protectionism and stopping the drug crisis.

I believe that after Trump leaves office in 2028, another right wing guy that nobody knows about would rise to power, perhaps with an intermedium of DEM control, and he would become the truly important political figure that historians would study about. He would also probably be further to the right than Trump.

This is unironically far more likely than it being anyone we know about. Nobody knew Hitler even existed before he became leader of the NSDAP.

Trump would beremembered more as the [Unknown Right Wing Guy] before the [Unknown of Right Wing Guy] and proof that American politics had already become disfunctional before him.

Some would credit Trump with much of the polarization and radicalizing that lead to [Unknown Right Wing Guy] and maybe a Second American Civil War if it happens but that's about it. He'll be greatly overshadowed in the future.

What if the United States successfully defeated China in the Taiwan War only for the global economy to enter into a recession?

Basically, in 2028, to capitalize on the chaotic US election, The People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) launched an invasion of the Taiwanese island.

However, US Navy and Air Force with the help of South Korea and Japan, managed to navally stop the PLAN from going further than Kinmen Islands, and blockaded the South China sea to starve the Chinese nation of recourses.

This break down in trade caused a global recession and allowed the Democrats to win the 2028 election, but, the new President refused to negotiate and continue the war.

Eventually in 2030, after much social and economic unrest, China decided to give up, thus losing the war.
