I feel like most of conflicts among CM playerbase can be attributed to a wider ideological and philosophical conflict between schools of thought. People hate “suboptimal” strategies, which speaks to an inner desire of many players for victory, no matter the cost.
Others value “fun” over everything else. There exists an optimisation task: the most popular XOs/COs appear to be the ones that establish the middle ground between two extremes, but in reality these people would achieve nothing. At the end of the day most players are completely bland and uninspired people who cannot accept either extreme as the desired methodology for optimal play.
As an universally acclaimed grossmeister of the CM strategy, this saddens me greatly. It is hard being so mentally ahead of everyone else. Upvote if agree. I need Reddit Gold btw.

I think a lot of the tall problems can be traced to the single issue of them being not just allowed CONGA, but actually having a variation of CONGA as the organizational method used by their warrior castes.
While this has the obvious benefit of satisfying the fundamental need for CONGA, the tall psychological mechanism of hedonic adaptation also makes them restless and fundamentally unsatisfied with their lot, which leads to them pondering questions, which are far beyond of their limited capacity for reason.
The more advanced Xenomorph society, on the other hand, has no need for empty speculation and is brutally efficient in one goal and purpose: CONGA. But, since this purpose is fundamentally never achievable in the current structure of reality, the Xenomorph society is perfectly protected from that feeling of mental dissatisfaction that so often befalls the talls and is one of the key causes of their societal woes.
TLDR: Talls Mad!
So true man.
I could rip a person saying “talls” OOC with my bare hands!
Played college ball, you know. Could have gone pro if I hadn’t joined CM.
Yean and I’ve once read a Dialectical Materialism textbook from cover to cover just for fun. Bet you can’t do that, tall.
P. S. Still probably the worst book I’ve ever read.
why would the combat marines, being the larger group, not hunt and eat the MPs for sport?
Because mps have evolved a meta-narrative protection device called jannies to save themselves
I am convinced you are a Laurencia Beck alt account.
insulting a senior Party member like that is a most serious crime
That is what an alt account would say. I have my eye on you.
So let’s say, for the sake of argument, that I am Laurencia Beck, let’s say, I’ve been Laurencia Beck for the past two years. Say, I am banned from MP. And I make 250 posts. Let’s say, all of that happens. You think that you can just un-heart all these posts you liked?
I would say it is a brilliant attempt to be unbanned from MP.
A very well rounded short dissertation on the mental framework of our players
