I agree with everything you just said but I don’t see how it refutes the statement I wrote:
Advancements in technology and governance since the modern era have made it significantly less hard, but in the grand scope of history, it’s been really really hard.
If “technological advantages and a fair social system” weren’t really hard to implement, then every civilization would have them.
They didn’t say it’s impossible to have society without wealth disparity.
They said it’s “really hard” to have the necessary labor distribution for scientific advancement and to digest other civilizations’ works without wealth disparity.
And they’re right. It’s really hard to make those advancements without having people whose full-time jobs are to be scientists, artists, and scholars. It’s really hard to be a full-time scientist, artist, or scholar unless you’re wealthy enough that you don’t have to work all day for basic resources, or have the patronage of someone who is. It’s really hard to be wealthy enough not to work all day for basic resources unless there’s wealth disparity.

Looks like Rhapsody has an ability I didn’t know about which lets you consume your +3 from Scarlet Remittance to either guarantee a crit, heal yourself, or give a target disadvantage on saving throws.

I still think which one is better depends on how many spells you’re going to be casting.
If you’re a spellcaster, sure, just for the stacking bonus to spell save DC and spell attack rolls. But then it’s better to compare it against a magic staff, not a shortsword…
For actually stabbing people, I think Knife of the Undermountain King is better.
I dunno, who told you Rhapsody is better and what was their explanation when you asked them how?
Same on Boost. I have to long-press the image and select “Open in browser” to see the video
I can’t see the video either unless I open it in my web browser. My reader app only shows me a screenshot too
Sounds better than pineapple on pizza! I’d gladly try it!

Context from the original OP, u/jackt-up on reddit:
Historical accounts of incendiary pigs or flaming pigs were recorded by the Greek military writer Polyaenus and by Aelianus Tacticus. Both writers reported that Macedonian king Antigonus II Gonatas’ siege of Megara in 266 BC was broken when the Megarians doused some pigs with combustible pitch, crude oil or resin, set them alight, and drove them towards the massed Macedonian war elephants. The elephants bolted in terror from the flaming, squealing pigs, often killing great numbers of Macedonian soldiers by trampling them to death. According to an account, Gonatas later made his mahouts keep a swine among elephants to accustom the animals to pigs and this practice was immortalized by a Roman bronze coin dating back to his time, which showed an elephant on one side and a pig on the other.
You’re saying the people who own and manage Netflix have no care for whether or not people pay for Netflix subscriptions? Bold assertion.
Sure, voting with your streaming dollars isn’t going to overthrow the government, but that’s not what anyone was talking about. We’re talking about voting with your streaming dollars for a better streaming service.
Context from the original OP u/jackt-up on reddit:
Context: In the Bible we have this really crazy episode in Kings, where Hezekiah, the king of Judah, prays for God to aid him, as Jerusalem is under siege by the Assyrians. Not only does God deliver him, he sends one singular Angel to deal with 185,000 Assyrian troops. All of them are killed.
“The prophet Isaiah sent word to Hezekiah that, because of Sennacherib’s blasphemous taunts about the God of Israel, the Lord Himself would fight for them and destroy Sennacherib and his armies. Sennacherib was not just defying Israel; he was defying the Living God. That night, the angel of the Lord slew 185,000 in the Assyrian camp. When Sennacherib saw the carnage, he abandoned his conquest of Jerusalem and fled to Nineveh. He never stepped foot inside Jerusalem, just as Isaiah had said.”
In reality, something must’ve happened—maybe a setback for Assyria, or perhaps a diplomatic concord—because when describing their enemies of the time, the Assyrians always mention how they crushed them. But with Judah, they simply say, basically, “they’re chill; all good with them.”
Right? They put this statue in Animal Crossing, dick and all, and it’s rated E for Everyone.
In the original comic, Nolan spoke first and Debbie responded. Whoever made the meme didn’t add the speech bubbles, they just replaced the text and made it so Palestine spoke first and the perfidious British and French responded.
