at some point the Roman empire claimed it
False comparison. The treaties that established their claim is from the 19th century and were signed by their direct predecessor state.

D&D Heroes! It wasn't the deepest game but it was 4 player coop on the XBox and I played the crap out of it with my friends.
Baldur's Gate 3 because it's my favorite version of that type of game so far and I've been playin' em since the Gold Box days.
Bard's Tale baby. Maybe not strictly a D&D game but we all know that it's a D&D game. I never bought this but I rented it about a zillion times in order to beat it back when that was a thing, lmao.
I would be a responsible gun owner
-Every single gun owner (self included ofc)
I've visited the museums in China, truly among the most inspiring places on this earth. The world's largest and most powerful country is also its most free.
Not really.
The fundamental critique of capitalism is that not even the capitalists are really in charge. Marx lays out quite thoroughly in Capital that the profit motive is what's actually in charge, and the capitalists are just along for the ride, and that any attempt by the capitalists to flex their power in a way that the market cannot abide will result in them losing their privileged status and being replaced by a different capitalist who will better serve the needs of the profit motive.
By contrast, socialist systems are run by people. That makes them flexible and able to serve the needs of society in a way that capitalist societies simply aren't. And yes, people are capable of mistakes, failure, and betrayal; but so too are they capable of insight, success, and solidarity. The best of existing socialist societies past and present is when they buck the demands of the market and provide for their people in ways that capitalist societies don't, and the worst of socialist societies is invariably the things that they are required to do in order to maintain their existence on a predominantly capitalist world.
The worst things that happen are when students lock the door to a building, or when fascist counter protestors (often in police uniforms) show up and escalate shit.
Americans live in one of the police states of all time. Capitalism can only produce this result, there is no alternative, because the ruling class knows just as well as the socialists do that the contradictions will only keep getting worse and the protests will only keep getting bigger but of course instead of wanting to change the equation to produce a different result like the socialists do the capitalists want to cling to power by any means necessary.
80% of the world's solar panels come from China and more than half of their electrical grid is from non-fossil sources. Coal plants are used as backups where they are still used at all. I'm sorry bud but it is simply an objective fact that China has invested more into a green energy transition than anyone else on this Earth.
