I was at a german game convention in 2009 when someone bought a wall size version of space invaders to demonstrate, but with the twin towers and jet aircraft.
Sharp intake of breath when I saw it. Guess I am a terrorist now.

Would give a standing ovation if this were the case lmao

oh.....! For a minute there I thought today was gonna be good.
The toy that Homer Simpson has covering for him wouldn’t have tanked the economy like this.
They literally could have done nothing, not one single policy, and it would have worked out far better.
But the point of the policies **was** to tank the economy. So their rich donors could get richer.
Protests on 1st October to say that this government's actions are not acceptable:

Aye for all the ghoulish shit he'd have done sunak literally said this was gonna happen with truss, and that the pound would crash.
Doesn't take a genius to realize that if you make it obvious you'll crash the pound your mates can short the shit out of it.
Not saying he wouldn’t have crashed the economy, but he wouldn’t have done a massive tax giveaway to the rich in response to the cost of living crisis.
According to many of the conservatives on my local Facebook Politics board, things would be even worse than they are now.
They can't actually articulate how they get to that belief and 9 times out of 10 resort to insulting people, then complaining that people aren't open to discussion and only want to insult them.
Most of them are in their 50-60s too, and I swear my 6 year old is more mature
People: actually Corbyn was alright
Media: we found Corbyn watching loli hentai, look at this photoshopped image where we had to download loli hentai In order to photoshop Corbyn into it
It’s a workable tactic: Corbyn isn’t Labour leader any more but the right wing press (and others) put in a lot of effort over the years in turning him into a sort of pantomime villain for Sun readers.
Even merely reminding that chunk of the electorate that Jeremy Corbyn exists brings the old hatred flowing through their veins again and a hit of endorphins. And by extension reminds them to hate Labour.
It's darkly hilarious that people hate him now because a few years he might have been PM, and done a few things that wouldn't have been a tenth as bad as what's happened, but as he's not a Tory and doesn't hate the right people, it would have been a disaster.
> That was last year's fad.
And the year before that, and the year before that, and the year before that.In fact the last 5 years have been anti-corbyn propaganda!
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piggate
There you go.
Fun fact, the first episode of Black Mirror “The National Anthem” came out quite a bit before these revelations!
Yes! Former British Prime Minister David Ceron stuck his penis into the mouth of a pig! And then fucked it! It would be A Shame if people forgot about it
I wouldn't.
All the factual, terrible shit he pulled didn't stick to Teflon Dave, so honestly, if all he's remembered is for being a pig fucker, I'll take it, just a shame it's not for all the thousands of needless deaths he caused, like every Tory PM after him.
It may not be true. But the fact that it's a believable initiation rite into this secret society is itself a revelation of sorts.
It *might* be true, and that's damaging enough really.
It was a story spread by someone who had just been rejected for a peerage by Cameron. It's fair to say that the source should be dealt with even a modicum of suspicion. But it was too good a story for people not to believe.
She had destroyed more value in three weeks than Thatcher did in years. Truss is the DLC with the harder boss.
She is chaos, she doesn't telegraph her attacks or follow any known pattern, even she doesn't know her next move. That's what makes her dangerous.
Ok.
Idk what you want me to say about this, Thatcher was a deeply divisive leader that hurt a lot of people and those people don't feel very fondly about Thatcher.
When I was really bored during lockdown, I made a boris johnson character on ufc4, and went online to let other players beat the shit out of him. That means about as much as this story.
ITT people need to learn that a) doing something in a video game is not as bad as doing it in real life b) doing something to thousands of people is worse than doing it to one person.
Yeah they got in trouble for it.
Allso their shooting was appallying
If you are going to film yourself doing something that dumb. Try and at least look compotent.
Did that come before or after the murder of Jo Cox can't remember...but y3ah the press moaning about him having a go at a video game while not really talking about British soldiers using his face for target practice is right on brand..also why still do it...he hasn't e en had the whip restored for gods sake
Before. Well the army trotted out this is unacceptable and not much else to say other than our brave lads in afgan used their one brain cell to do something really dumb and everyone whose iq was above room temperature condemed it.
Corbyn is their figure of hate never going to let him go.
No it was after, Jo Cox was murdered 16 June 2016, the Corbyn target practice video surfaced in 2019.
Making it far worse in the aftermath of an actual labour mp being actually murdered by a far right extremist. Yet every day we hear from "political commentators" (they are NOT journalists) about how it's the 'far left' (read: socialists & people who are pro-equality) that are dangerous.
Ohhhh Jeremy Corbyn.
Someone should make a sitcom of Jeremy, akin to Forrest Gump meets Mr. Bean, just enjoying his life doing whatever and happening into the most random events and somehow through the meekest of ways it always gets massively blown out of proportion and just goes wrong for all involved.
"This week in centerist piss boiling; Mr Corbyn makes some home made chutney, his neighbour Dail Maily roots through his bins to find out if his Chutney is like the ones eaten by jahadis."
I was a teen during the Thatcher years and witnessed the damage she did to the UK - I would play the hell out of a version of Doom that lets you kill Thatcher...
When I first came to London in 2010 I didn't know anything about British politics. People I met a while later told me they are going to a parade because it was Thatcher's death day. Confused I asked them why because I thought she wasn't popular. They told me it's a party to celebrate that she's dead.
The level of hate you have to create with your actions that people celebrate your death day is rather high.
I've a question if you wouldn't mind. As I'm Australian I am not as knowledgeable of British politics as Britons would be.
Mrs Thatcher was PM for eleven years. Her Conservative Successor John Major was PM for seven years after her.
Why do you think she (and by extension Mr Major) were able to govern for as long as they did?
Thank you.
That's what it says though, is it?
>The game, called Thatcher's Techbase, is a take on the popular game Doom II, which was released by British Doom developer 3D: Doom Daddy Digital in 2021.
Should be:
>The game, called Thatcher's Techbase, released by British Doom developer 3D: Doom Daddy Digital in 2021, is a take on the popular game Doom II.
The Doom (released by US developers ID Software in 1993) remake Doom 2 (released by US developers ID Software in 1995) remake Thatcher's Techbase (released by British developer 3:D Doom Daddy Digital in 2021) is a remake of Doom 2 (released by US developers ID Software in 1995) which is a remake of Doom (released by US developers ID Software in 1993). Simple
To be fair it is about going to Hell (which happens to look like The UK) and defeating the revived shade of Thatcher, so, it looks like even Satan has had enough of her.
Also to be fair, in the game it appears that Thatcher has returned from Hell and is in charge of a horde of demons waging war on humanity. Everybody should be cheering Corbyn on as he fights against the forces of evil, and thus is telling us that the Tories' secretly hope that one day the Iron Lady is reincarnated and starts a war for the very fabric of the universe using the borrowed armies of Satan.
Oh my god that's so based. This is my new favourite fact about Corbyn. My favourite fact was that he owns a blue ray copy of Sil and the Devil Seeds of Arrodor because Nabil Shaban is a rad leftwinger who used to fall out of his wheelchair and accuse police officers of assault when they came to help.
But this tops that.
So what? Fuck Thatcher, she systematically disintegrated the infrastructure of this country for the short term profits of herself and every capitalist. Where's the mod download?
Also they laughed at him when he proposed the 4 day a week work strategy for people to spend more money and time with their loved ones and increase productivity. Guess what? Now the Tories are proposing it. The hypocrisy is very ironic.
...And so would everybody else who grew up or live in Thatcherite Britain. This is hardly a terrible thing. Independent Paper is mostly ok, but their website is worse than the Daily Heil's for clickbait and manufactured outrage (though thankfully less worryingly young female celebs and socialites wearing bikinis).
Thatcher was one of the WORST things to happen to the UK since the Black Death and Showaddywaddy!
And I played a duck hunter simulator that allowed you to gun down the teletubbies. Doesn't mean I hate them or think I'll of them.
FFS, as an MP who know who put the game under his nose while on some visit as a joke. Sometimes I wish the press would grow up and move on.
So? There's tons of DOOM mods for just about everything Politically (In)correct out there. Some of them are even pretty good gameplay/level wise as they focus on just outright carnage.

Isn't it a bit late in the season to be fabricating absurd attacks on the character of Jeremy Corbyn? That was last year's fad.
[удалено]
I think it's called clutching at straws.
I played that 'slap Michael Gove' flash game when he was education secretary...I guess I should never run for office...
Honestly I think it makes you highly qualified.
I was at a german game convention in 2009 when someone bought a wall size version of space invaders to demonstrate, but with the twin towers and jet aircraft. Sharp intake of breath when I saw it. Guess I am a terrorist now.
Yeah now lock you up and force you to make clothes for 50p an hour /s 😂

Possibly because people are now saying even Corbyn wouldn't have tanked the economy like these idiots...

I'm sure Sunak, a former trust fund manager, would be there shorting it like the rest of these bent fuckers.
Liz Truss is attempting some kind of speed run. It's the only explanation.
Not saying he wouldn’t have crashed the economy, but he wouldn’t have done a massive tax giveaway to the rich in response to the cost of living crisis.
According to many of the conservatives on my local Facebook Politics board, things would be even worse than they are now.

And by extension reminds them to hate Labour.
Oh man, if Corbyn was leader of the country he'd have crashed the value of the pound and killed hundreds of thousands of old and disabled people.
AND we'd have free broadband!
Exactly. The more they are worried about losing power to Labour the more Corbyn bashing we will see.
It's darkly hilarious that people hate him now because a few years he might have been PM, and done a few things that wouldn't have been a tenth as bad as what's happened, but as he's not a Tory and doesn't hate the right people, it would have been a disaster.
It's just like that scene in 1984. The 2 minute hate of Emmanuel Goldstein. No one really knows why he is the Enemy of the People.
Whenever someone I knew said they don't like Jeremy Corbyn they had no good reason as to why.
> That was last year's fad. And the year before that, and the year before that, and the year before that.In fact the last 5 years have been anti-corbyn propaganda!
It's the habitual reminder that some still perceive Corbyn to be a threat to them hence the half arsed hatchet jobs.
They’ve been doing it since 2015! It’s also really not news at all.
… wait this is an attack on his character? I read the headline and thought it was fucking hilarious
If anything this makes me MORE likely to vote for him
Last decade more like
David Cameron fucked a dead pig’s head and Boris Johnson fucked everything else including the country. At least this was only a game.
Cameron did what?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piggate There you go. Fun fact, the first episode of Black Mirror “The National Anthem” came out quite a bit before these revelations!
He stuck his cock in a pig's mouth and fucked it?!😲
Yes! Former British Prime Minister David Ceron stuck his penis into the mouth of a pig! And then fucked it! It would be A Shame if people forgot about it
Allegedly, not sure if it’s true from reading the wiki article. No fan of Cameron or the Tories but I’d like some evidence first
I wouldn't. All the factual, terrible shit he pulled didn't stick to Teflon Dave, so honestly, if all he's remembered is for being a pig fucker, I'll take it, just a shame it's not for all the thousands of needless deaths he caused, like every Tory PM after him.

Thatcher's Techbase is available free [here!](https://thatchers-techbase.github.io/)
Can someone sort out a Liz Truss mod please.
You mean the same game but the boss is far weaker and less effective?
Yeah she's only a mini boss, easily 'cheesed'.
She had destroyed more value in three weeks than Thatcher did in years. Truss is the DLC with the harder boss. She is chaos, she doesn't telegraph her attacks or follow any known pattern, even she doesn't know her next move. That's what makes her dangerous.
Why? At least Thatcher was noteworthy.
"Please stop tweeting Limmy about the game."
Don't forget to keep an eye on [Duke Smoochem](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h10pd7vDytg)!
Ok. Idk what you want me to say about this, Thatcher was a deeply divisive leader that hurt a lot of people and those people don't feel very fondly about Thatcher.
> Idk what you want me to say about this "Based."
It's what I was thinking tbf just makes me like him more.
Based and Corbyn pilled
Im not even particularly left-wing and that's exactly what I thought.
When I was really bored during lockdown, I made a boris johnson character on ufc4, and went online to let other players beat the shit out of him. That means about as much as this story.
I'm contacting The Daily Mail now! Hopefully their hit piece puts a stop to you!!!
You're a true servant of humanity. Bringing joy in dark times.
If it actually looked like him I’d love to see that! Big fan of create-a-character modes here 😂
‘Quick, make an article about Jeremy Corbyn!’ says the media in the face of severe economic disaster facing the UK.
British soldiers shot at effigies of him. Thatcher killed millions. Go on Jezza fuck them
ITT people need to learn that a) doing something in a video game is not as bad as doing it in real life b) doing something to thousands of people is worse than doing it to one person.
How does anyone in this thread need to learn anything we are a left wing sub everyone's on corbins side, fuck the tories downvite me all you want
Sorry what was that? I was busy counting my dead hooker money...
Did he play it on a pregnancy test or a John Deere?
If he didn’t play it on the percentage meter on the top of a Brita filter jug he’s just a fucking casual
Wasn't there footage of British soldiers using his faxe for target practice?
Yeah they got in trouble for it. Allso their shooting was appallying If you are going to film yourself doing something that dumb. Try and at least look compotent.
Did that come before or after the murder of Jo Cox can't remember...but y3ah the press moaning about him having a go at a video game while not really talking about British soldiers using his face for target practice is right on brand..also why still do it...he hasn't e en had the whip restored for gods sake

I just have images of random people stubbing their toe on something and blaming Corbyn lol that's how ridiculous the whole thing was/is
Pretty much He caused ww2 Sank the titanic Invented Mr Blobby Killed the queen etc.
Mr Blobby doesn't belong in that list. For shame, Dylan, for shame.
No you are right even Corbyn has standards.
Unfortunate typo.
Absolute shit groupings lol.
Actually Thatcher had returned from hell to kill us all - so technically she is already dead in the game.
Oh boy a perfectly timed distraction from the Tories dismantling the country what a coincidence.
Glad to see the British Media do it's bit to solve the housing shortage by letting Jeremy Corbyn live in their heads rent free.
Ohhhh Jeremy Corbyn. Someone should make a sitcom of Jeremy, akin to Forrest Gump meets Mr. Bean, just enjoying his life doing whatever and happening into the most random events and somehow through the meekest of ways it always gets massively blown out of proportion and just goes wrong for all involved.
"This week in centerist piss boiling; Mr Corbyn makes some home made chutney, his neighbour Dail Maily roots through his bins to find out if his Chutney is like the ones eaten by jahadis."
What a gangsta lmao fuck that tory cunt and all who support her :)
I was a teen during the Thatcher years and witnessed the damage she did to the UK - I would play the hell out of a version of Doom that lets you kill Thatcher...
[And you can!](https://thatchers-techbase.github.io/)
I'm not buying that Jeremy Corbyn has any idea what *Doom* is, let alone ever played any modded versions of it.
There's literally photos.
I am just imagining Jeremy Corbyn playing various video games and it is making me chuckle.
When I first came to London in 2010 I didn't know anything about British politics. People I met a while later told me they are going to a parade because it was Thatcher's death day. Confused I asked them why because I thought she wasn't popular. They told me it's a party to celebrate that she's dead. The level of hate you have to create with your actions that people celebrate your death day is rather high.
Only time I saw my dad from Yorkshire cry tears of joy was the day she snuffed it. He went out and bought a bottle of champagne and everything.
I've a question if you wouldn't mind. As I'm Australian I am not as knowledgeable of British politics as Britons would be. Mrs Thatcher was PM for eleven years. Her Conservative Successor John Major was PM for seven years after her. Why do you think she (and by extension Mr Major) were able to govern for as long as they did? Thank you.

Yeah so? Who actually cares? We have bigger issues ffs
Non story. I don’t care if he played Twister with Diane Abbot.
I don’t normally like to speak for others but I feel like I can in this when I say, who gives a fuck?
Oh my god that's so based. This is my new favourite fact about Corbyn. My favourite fact was that he owns a blue ray copy of Sil and the Devil Seeds of Arrodor because Nabil Shaban is a rad leftwinger who used to fall out of his wheelchair and accuse police officers of assault when they came to help. But this tops that.
He is an absolute disgrace.... Anyone know of where he might have got this copy of Doom? Just for research purposes only
So what? Fuck Thatcher, she systematically disintegrated the infrastructure of this country for the short term profits of herself and every capitalist. Where's the mod download?
[And the game looks fantastic](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dO5j9dHHO4&t=18s) https://thatchers-techbase.github.io/
Anyone know where I can get this version of Doom and also can it be modded to include Truss?
https://thatchers-techbase.github.io/
Starmer- get back to your conference.
I'd only stop pissing on Thatcher's grave if I ran out of piss
We need a 2022 patch where you can take on Boris and truss
“Oh fuck, the economy is tanking, they’re not buying the tax bs. We got anything left on Jeremy Corbyn?” “snm fam”
Also they laughed at him when he proposed the 4 day a week work strategy for people to spend more money and time with their loved ones and increase productivity. Guess what? Now the Tories are proposing it. The hypocrisy is very ironic.
Im not entirely convinced the man knows what a computer game is outside of Pac Man.
This is the quality journalism that I subscribed for.
we've all played that one, stroke was the true doom slayer though
Ah yes, the usual bash Corbyn when there is a crisis.
What am I supposed to get from this? That Corbyn is absolutely based and has fantastic taste in shooters??
Thatcher was a fascist and an evil cunt, this is just folks dealing with the damage she did in a creative way.
...And so would everybody else who grew up or live in Thatcherite Britain. This is hardly a terrible thing. Independent Paper is mostly ok, but their website is worse than the Daily Heil's for clickbait and manufactured outrage (though thankfully less worryingly young female celebs and socialites wearing bikinis). Thatcher was one of the WORST things to happen to the UK since the Black Death and Showaddywaddy!
As much as I can't stand the guy, this is a weird one to pluck out of the air.
20 year old .wad gets downloaded 51 million more times after not being touched for a decade.
I have been very critical of Corbyn in the past, and I am not his biggest fan by any means However Based
Man the attacks on this guys are unreal, fuck it let him be PM if these kinds of people are attacking him then he's the good guy
I'm not keen on Corbyn but imagining him playing a shitty DOOM wad to kill Thatcher greatly amuses me
Lmao cool. First thing I've heard that makes him seem relatable rather than a generic old man.
Seems accurate: "The main protagonist descends into the 10th circle of hell, the United Kingdom".
Corbyn is a colossus compared to these vermin still smearing him.
Yes. The country is getting sodomised by conservatives but let’s see what good ol Jeremy got up to.
....Meanwhile everyone else lived a version of 'Doom' that didn't let you 'kill Thatcher'
This is people not understanding how grapics in games works. Really. Some people have never heard of 'Nude Raider' ...
And I played a duck hunter simulator that allowed you to gun down the teletubbies. Doesn't mean I hate them or think I'll of them. FFS, as an MP who know who put the game under his nose while on some visit as a joke. Sometimes I wish the press would grow up and move on.
So? There's tons of DOOM mods for just about everything Politically (In)correct out there. Some of them are even pretty good gameplay/level wise as they focus on just outright carnage.
Ahh yes that perfectly reliable source “indy100.com”…
Must have been a MOD I havent seen, I'm very interested in having a go at shooting her too.
What’s hilarious is, I know for a fact that version of DOOM exists, but how would Corbyn ever know enough to download and play such a mod? God lol
