He's a Jew. Ever since he sold Warhorse he has been going around Czech media boasting about his wealth and being a "maximalist."Why would you post something like this?

You probably filtered the LGB+ tagI can no longer find KDC2 on Steam and its respective forum with glorious threads.
What gives?
That sounds more like food poisoning than bad healthcare (unless they poisoned him on purpose, implying medicinal knowledge). Alas your other quotes have even less to do with Malian doctors.I recall Ibn Battuta saying bad things about healthcare in Mali, looking through his accounts right now.Sounds interesting, who said that?Also, pretty much all the descriptions of Arabs visiting Mali mention their medicine being shit, the absolute worst in the entire Muslim world.
The first thing I found is him saying that the food they eat there makes white people sick, only the local blacks can stomach it:

That was more interesting, and always on topic. Obviously a wealthy traveller like Dr Musa would have brought pretty nude servant girls (or at least a night nurse) with him from Mali.He considers their culture rather quaint and barbaric in some aspects:

Indeed why would a mighty Islamic ruler tolerate visiting heathens acting like that? Especially considering that (page 329):A king who gifts women to cannibals in the full knowledge they will be eaten doesn't strike me as particularly civilized.
Even Egyptian pyramids were built mostly of mud brick during the Middle Kingdom (with just a thin layer of limestone on the outside), so it seems like a cost-efficient building material if you don't need your buildings to last thousands of years. Maybe Malians considered stone overkill, especially if there was no threat of siege machines from hostile armies. But it's still odd that they didn't want to imitate Egyptian architecture out of vanity, clearly they could have afforded skilled Egyptian workers if needed. Perhaps Malians were simply not that interested in stone architecture, just like the Vikings.Supposedly Mali is very rich in resources including Gold and Limestone.
Limestone is an exception building material: https://www.regattaexports.com/famous-buildings-that-are-made-using-limestone/
They could have built magnificant structures. So I question how well the excuse of insufficent resources holds up.
I'd add no ugly broads, too.The "purity trial" is extremely easy to pass actually.
No niggers, no fags.

I don't believe that part either, even the first expedition's 200 ships (more likely large canoes) seems like a stretch. But why would Mansa Musa come up with such a fantastic explanation of how he siezed power? Was he hinting that his predecessor might one day return with his 2000 ships, to prevent the ruler of Egypt from considering hostilities?2000 ships lol. Suddenly I have an hypothesis that the "wealthiest man in history" legend comes from him irresponsibly giving away gold during his hajj and impressing arabs with tall tales.
in true Kang fashion he likely just murdered his predecessor and rivals.
You can't even pretend to be surprised.So, some Saudi gaming journo made a claim based on a rumor, and half of the Codex already commenced with pearl clutching.
No, he couldn't.Vavra could easily stop it all.. silence is damning..
Stone overkill? Mud washes away every year....yes its just like the Vikings.Even Egyptian pyramids were built mostly of mud brick during the Middle Kingdom (with just a thin layer of limestone on the outside), so it seems like a cost-efficient building material if you don't need your buildings to last thousands of years.

Being generally retarded and overreacting is becoming more or less the national sport on this board.
It's always been somewhat fun over the years to mock the so called "lefties" for their tendency to "eat their own" with their increasingly-escalating purity tests; to observe how they keep filtering each other out of their inner circles.
Then you have episodes like this as a strong reminder that delusional mongoloids with a passion for outrage exist on either side of the so called culture war.

You people are being literally retarded and at this point can't see a meter ahead of you.
Let's say for the sake of argument that there IS going to be a "gay sex" scene in the game (we'll overlook the obvious bullshit about being unskippable) and it's a scene where the people involved are framed as ridiculous or disgusting or deplorable...
What do you expect Vavra should say to the press or to his audience? "Don't worry people, there is gay sex BUT WE MADE THEM LOOK BAD so it's ok!".
Of course he's going to be vague about the topic and just say "Calm down, it's not what you think it is".

Well after all that tap dancing he finally says so. What about Mbongo? Did he confirm that too?
I played Manor Lords.Have you played BG3 or Solasta today to get your DEI fix? You sound grumpy.
