Fake. Again. You guys really need to check your sources before you post this tulip.

The quoted text doesn't appear anywhere in the rule books for the Cyberpunk RPG. In fact the only place it appears on the net is in that meme.

Check for yourself here:

Cyberpunk 2013 Rulebook

and here

Cyberpunk 2020 Rulebook

Side note: CyberPunk 2020 was actually published in 1990, not 1988. The original version of the game, generally known as Cyberpunk 2013 was published in 1988.

That's a link to The Brexit Party, founded a few months ago, not Nigel Farage's idea of Brexit for the last 25 years.

Perhaps you can provide the answer to the question, rather than a deflection to something completely irrelevant.

Yes, providing a link, to the political party he formed recently and did really well in recent EU elections and has a clear policy on exactly what type of Brexit they* are campaigning for, stated on the page I linked to - ....is completely irrelevant
*Including Farage

You truly are special.

You mentioned Old Greg in your first post on this thread, that doesn't mean the thread is all about him, eh?

I'm not the hypocrite, that introduced someone to a thread and then later whinged about them being talked about in the thread.

Can see the difference?

Look - not sure where you re coming from with this...

it was a meme - and not supposed to be true

but does what it says not ring any bells with you?

Is this not what you see going on around you right now - thus the reason why it has become a meme?

[WTFH]

What you see going around right now is people making up quotes. Claiming things were said that weren't. Twisting history to suit their own ends. Then relying on others who are not interested in truth, but only in reinforcing false concepts.

Lies are believed more than truth and the propaganda machines manipulate the masses who aren't interested in truth any more.

Have you layered this over your Sid Meier theories of global domination?

So you do not see anything in that meme that rings true in the modern world?

Nothing?

Not a thing?

You can't expect too much from an antisemitic turd like Ziggy.

One can always tell when you're running out of ideas.

Yes, plenty of it rings true. Americans refusing to give up their rights to own guns.
Etonians calling other politicians "Elite"
People wanting to isolate themselves, thinking that they are better than their neighbours.
People who want "Britain me First"
People whose goal is to separate, not integrate.

It's very true. Can you see it?

Where I'm coming from is that it is yet another fabricated piece of propaganda being taken at face value by people who need validation of their world view.

If it's not supposed to be true why post it? What is the point of it? What was the point you were trying to make by posting it?

It makes a specific claim that these words were written over 30 years ago with the implication that they were in some way prophetic when they are not.

The scenario it describes really doesn't ring any bells with me. It's more alt-right bulltulip designed to propagate the idea that it is happening when it isn't.

It's not even a particularly popular meme. Googling for it mostly turns up discussions on Reddit gaming boards debunking it.
