I mean in America, basically everyone would find your accusation weird… Like very. No offense ofc. I’m just saying it’s not necessarily that you can’t assume, or that it’s frowned upon. You HAVE to assume alot as you don’t truly know what’s in the mind ever. You need to make assumptions at some point. But they should be educated ones, ones based on some reasonable evidence of SOMETHING that’s what everyone I personally know believes.
So to accuse him of racism, something SEVERE, REAL, something people in real life are actively DEALING WITH is major. So you need to make sure you’re not reducing soemthing people suffer from daily into internet spat talk. Call eachother dumb and all that other stuff. But when you branch off into framing him as such with no evidence of him attacking a “racial identity” even through implication. It looks weird.
The word he said was a nation in a video game, not even IRL. Nationality in video games aren’t racial identities. He never even mentioned religion. He said a TECH TREE in GAME is Irrelevant. Whether you agree or not? That’s not racism. He hasn’t said much else to justify that yet. You’re jumping the gun with 0 proof. I know on this thread proof, and truth is railed against by some I’ve seen. But let’s try to keep those values intact regardless?
Ahh yes Google the land of 0 misinformation, Ai previews full of hallucinations and opinions… First things first, a nation is not a race. Why do so many people nowadays not know this already? Adult literacy is down and I get that but come on. Xenophobia is the correct term if you want to drag it there? But he never called a nation irrelevant. He said a tech tree was… Notoriously not racism. It’s insulting to the victims of actual racism history to present to claim that bs imo.
The cynical misuse of these terminologies just comes off as you don’t have real issues in life if you need to change entire definitions that have not colloquially changed, and make up unproven assumptions about someone’s entire character because their video game opinion that doesn’t involve any identity to begin with… I’m not saying it’s the case I’m saying that’s how it comes off. Very fake, and snakey. Like you’re trying to fool people who already know better. It’s very disrespectful and deeply saddening.
He said it shouldn’t of been added.
- 1 I’m not changing definitions at all lad, don’t know where you learned English.
- 2 colloquially these terms have both changed quite substantially over the past 20 years, never mind the past 40 or so.
- 3
Now hows making an unproven assumption based on ones character?
I’ve stated and asked him if he’s trolling and challanged the nonsense he has spouted, as above, unless he’s edited it, he also stated they shouldn’t of even added Isreal.
There’s no assumption of his “character” nor identity, and to claim so shows lack of either A. reading comprehension or B. Choosing to willfully ignore what’s been said across the whole conversation.
Now again, who is making assumptions.
the dude made brash as f*** statements and I come from a country and society where one is allowed to be called out on it if they chant total bullcrap.
As you’ve done just now.
Disrespectful to who exactly?
The persons made claims that the tree should never have been added in the firstplace.
has talked crap about it on a threat specifically about buffing the tank at top tier, which derails the whole ass topic, as well as if you bothered to read never actually gave any meaningful points as to why he said what he said.
Which again if you’ve any form of reading comprehension either is coming from trying to troll / get engagement , or is born from some form of Xenophobia.
More likely the former however his use of ambiguous and quite frankly, dismissive language shows just that.
Don’t bounce in here trying to tell the guy who’s already given the why his response was pathetic, a lesson lol.
as can be seen here, you purposefully have ignored any and all points I’ve made as to why it is racist / xenophobic, more so the latter, based on the definitions of both bloody words-
But alas, it’s quite snakey of you and fake to ignore the whole part of my explaining of all of this.
guess what mate, the worlds not America and the standard of English taught is not to the American standard.
Hence the assumption made based off of the other guys extremely poor use of ambiguous and vague language lol.
Good for them,
- Oxford definition of assume.
Assume : to think or accept that something is true but without having proof of it.
- oxford definition of assumtion.
assumption: belief or feeling that something is true or that something will happen, although there is no proof
Literally the opposite of what you just said.
- 1 If i tell you that a nation is irrelevant and should not have been placed in a game without any major reasoning other than it’s copy paste
- 2 if i proceed to give next to no evidence to back up the claim and as can be seen above, respond extremely childishly.
- 3 as well as result to insulting over reasoning.
Then of course people will assume that the dude’s racist or being xenophobic lol.
he said it was irrelevant, then said it should never have been added-
That’s the bloody difference.
says the man who in his very next response starts to insult myself?-
Pot calling the kettle black there son.
Get a grip, I’m going to assume that by your use of “in America basically everyone would find…” to assume you’re an American no?

The more direct quote “the tech tree is irrelevant” aka the way it’s implemented isn’t appealing to him. Which is his opinion to think a tech tree isn’t implemented in a fashion that’s engaging for the player? Free world unless you live in a crazy nation or have a certain mentality? Of which I recommend living in the woods instead of leeching off society while being anti social…
They haven’t. Race means race. Nationality means nationality. Implication means implication, evidence means evidence. Idc what someone’s favorite YouTuber or politician says. These definitions haven’t changed much at all in over a couple hundred years now. Not in the contexts we are speaking of them now. You’re making stuff up with 0 to back it up AGAIN. Lmao.
It’s still WEIRD asf as I said before. Just say you think the tech tree is perfectly added in game with 0 flaws if you disagree with his idea. But to label him something you showed 0 evidence of him being is insane to anyone who thinks for themselves. Regardless of “America” most reasonable people in any nation don’t accept your definition. Especially linguistic experts, and historians…
Real victims. Just like it’s disrespectful to real victims of assault to lie about being assaulted. This is all I have to say because you’d have to be anti-empiricist to disagree. Keep this forum on the Merkava or these mods will be in here to shut it down. Unless someone is bringing up race, or insinuating race don’t bring up racism.
You will get this thread SHUT DOWN. I’m not even sure I agreed with everything the guy said, but making unfounded claims like that that are SERIOUS and not a game makes me start looking towards you for questioning. It doesn’t help your argument it hurts your credibility exponentially.
Be a real human being here to engage in reasonable discussions about the game. Don’t be an agent of chaos derailing reasonable discussion. Because we have too many of those to deal with already.
I don’t think I was going all that hard… But apologies. I just don’t think we should be having people derailing a discussion on the Merkava… Discuss what can be done to fix the tank. Not agent of chaos posting.

again you’ve no idea what you’re talking about.
Definitions for the word racism have changed over the past 20 years. 2020’ was revised in the meriam webster dictionary.
2021 it was changed as well in oxford and cambridge dictionaries.
go read the damn dictionaries and the editions to see how it’s changed, especially colloquially which is what you stated.
Or do you not know what hte word colloquially actually means ?
Colloquially : in a way that is used in conversation but not in formal speech or writing.
As per the oxford dictionary.
SO yes the words have hcanged substanitally over the past 200 years which just shows how little you know of the langauge you use.
the more direct quote?
mate as I have stated before if it’s “not eddited” by now.
Which it’s clearly been so xD
No ones brought up either as a source nor a reference point, however dictionaries have been used to refer to the language used, which is why I am stating that it’s understandable how the other guys assumption is based off of being racist / xenophobic yet again, not reading what I bloody bullet pointed for you.
literally what the definition from Oxfrod and Cambridge state about assumptions to make a statement or label etc based off of no proof or evidence.
can you read or not?
I’d say that the Oxford dictionary are experts on linguistics, and I’d also say one educated by Cambridge to teach the language also knows about linguistics, or how their own langauge actually functions and is used.
I don’t and haven’t said that at all.
I also didn’t say I believe he’s being xenophobic either yet again, if you could actually read what I said is I believe he was trolling due to stating the the whole trees just copy paste, when it’s clearly not.
- 1 it doesn’t mean that at all.
- 2 if a persons use of langauge is vague and leading to like I said either trolling or making it seem xenophobic then that’s how people will percieve it.
- 3 I’ve been a victim of racism and assaulted due to my race living in a foreign country, It’s not disrespectful at all.
- 4 he stated that the other bloke s coming across as racist from what he’s saying also stating he himself is not a native speaker and thus things may be getting lost in translation.
But pop off if you think you are the voice of authority on the situation.
then why did the guy you’re literally defending bounce in saying what he did if not to troll / derail the post. That’s my original point.
The statements of racism or him being racist, which I corrected as to say xenophobic are not from myself.
I just correct the English used as poeple nowadays use it wrong constantly.

Stop making lies about people on the forum, and purposefully using the incorrect denotation and connotations to English words that actually mean something. That’s called spreading disinformation. Stop derailing this thread too. It should be about the Merkavas but instead you had to go and give that guy the win by making baseless claims about his entire identity lmfao.
Should he say you do assaults? Purely because how you act is absurd to him? Exactly. I’m just over it, I’m over people denigrating the meanings of words to bolster an argument they subconsciously think they are losing. Just conceded, or don’t reply to him I guess at that point.
He shouldn’t accuse you of anything without decent evidence of it just like you shouldn’t blood libel him. Do unto others as you want done onto you. It’s a simple rule of engagement within societal fabrics buddy.
I made no claims on anyones identity have I.
Sorry but by both oxford and cambridge standard theyre not incorrect.
Sorry if you cannot understand that
Rather than repeating myself endlessly on thr merkava thread ive taken it to DMs.
If you’ve more idiotic claims to make. Make them there.
If not he quiet and let us discuss the damn tank.
Which i was in fact doing with @Panther2995
I was gone for couple of days, wth happened here Xd.
We had our discussion and ten I’m not entirely sure xd
I was merely pointing out why the other dudes comments may have seemed “xenophobic” or racist to the other guy who stated his native langauge isn’t English.
Then that other lads been trying to tell me how the language works xD

He’s claiming a guy on this thread is “racist” because he said a “tech tree is irrelevant”. If someone says for example “the US tech tree for is irrelevant” in game is that racist? That’s just plain crazy. We must have civil adult discussions on threads like this. Not bs mud slinging contests to see who can be the stupidest until a mod shows up.
He’s derailing a conversation about changing the Merkavas into this bs cry-bully posting which is not fitting for a forum discussion about tanks. Take it to Twitter. That’s all I was trying to say but he needs to argue to feel some semblance of relief in life I guess…
Bro you can’t even close your flappers. You say this just to go running to a different guy to continue talking about the situation. I don’t need you in my DMs telling me 2+2=1… I know the answer is 4. Everyone else on this thread with adult level reasoning skills knows the answer is 4.
Go talk to Twitter about it, frame the plant outside your house for being a racist for all I care. But not on a THREAD about tanks, and how to balance them. That’s stupid and weird asf. Simply put, grow tf up. The other guy left you alone and you still CONTINUED.
