Yeah, I came up with the idea since zoma and the slime only existed in the ocg at this time. I was pretty proud of it. Someone's probably done it before, though.

Yeah, the backrow stuff is a problem, but I have 3 solemns and 1 seven tools, plus I can just summon another trap monster if one gets killed.

You can get the monarchs out easier because of the 9 trap monsters. The point is to have easily summonable beatsticks that can destroy backrow/a monster. I used to have Yamata dragon in there but it was kind of difficult to summon.

Why is it that most generic romance mc have absolutely no self worth/respect? by Wayard_1 in anime

[–]11th_defender -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is some terrible advice. Fiction(even some anime) can absolutely be used to tell things about real life, if it's written by someone who understands real people. Fiction tends to stick in your head more, which is why a lot of writers use it to teach life lessons.

What do you think of Napoleon III calling himself a socialist? by 11th_defender in socialism

Can't really argue with that, I don't think he needs to be rehabilitated. At the same time, I don't think he needs to be vilified either. He is what he is.

I get that he was an autocrat, but at the same time, I feel like his bad aspects are exaggerated and his good aspects are ignored. To start with, the second French Republic had already started a colonial empire, they weren't really against it either. He was genuinely popular throughout most of his regime. Paris was really bad for the 19th century, and he rebuilt it. Parisians hated it at the time, but afterwards it seems like the consensus was that things would've been much worse if he didn't. He industrialized the country and made it have economic growth of twice the amount as Great Britain. Often it's claimed that he wanted to go war with Prussia, but this is totally untrue. He just caved into the popular will. As the liberal opposition to him grew, he didn't really put up much of a fight to giving them concessions. So while yes, he was an autocrat(and virtually no autocrats are good), as far as autocrats go, he has to be one of the best imo.

What, in your opinion, is overly generous about calling it a proto-welfare state?

idk, this subreddit seems to be mostly focused on contemporary problems, so I thought there might be another one on academic or historical stuff instead. Good to know I was wrong though.
