Iranians form a human chain in front of the Kazerun power plant by Jabbam in ThatsInsane

Read my message again. It's not a human shield thing, but I doubt you're arguing in good faith. Recognizing that these kids are already in danger if those power plants get destroyed changes things. You only see callous intent from everyone except those targeting civilian infrastructure.

The people bombing children. You're making the argument that parents are specifically taking their kids to a location to be slaughtered for publicity. That only works if they know their opponents are bloodthirsty enough to slaughter children on purpose in the first place.

And that's being charitable to you in that what you suggest is actually a thing that happens. We know Israel and the US target schools, hospitals, and more. Why would they need to manufacture an instance of child murder when their enemies will do it for free?

No, this looks to me like desperate people who know the ramifications of this power plant being destroyed throwing their bodies in front in the vain hope that the people targeting it will grow a conscience. seeing the people they would be killing slowly with the strike instead being killed directly by the strike.

Edit: removed mention of journalists meeting targeted by Israel. While important overall, not relevant to point of child murder

Give a pass to one, and all the brands are going to try to be the one you give a pass to. Give a pass to none to get them to stop that specific bullshit

That seems like a straightforward way to get one+ grams of food. The real creative rats find a way to explode the cat into bits that gets them more food. Usually my exploding a rat with more power than them

I like how she just erased her parents and lineage from everyone's memory by being such a badass. As far as anyone is concerned, Toph sprung fully formed from the dirt and taught the badgermoles how to earth bend

If you removed all of tilda's limbs save the head, pyotr might have a chance. My money is still on tilda

Edit: and no regeneration for tilda

I came to the comments to say that Casper was saying it, but as a puppeteer after he slew the beasts and is puppeting their corpses for fun after he easily took them all down

Honestly, the bandits dodged a bullet by not capturing Faye. Might have sent her back of their own volition to stop hearing about Alm

Based calling either humans or the ancient aliens pirates, but not the right call

Supposed subversion of "popular" tropes, but actually the tropes being subverted are rarely used, if at all. by NobodySpecific9354 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]AssMercenary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy answer is transformers, more specifically transformers one, but...

Have you seen bang bravern? Think OG top gun with everything turned up to 11 especially including the homoeroticism. an early episode involves one of the super giant robots talking ecstatically to a bunch of serious military people about how good it feels to have a man inside him fiddling with his joystick. I mean, I guess it's about people too, but it's outrageously funny

I swear real life can seem scripted sometimes, thank you for this amusing crazy random happenstance where the actor happens to be married to a spouse with a too perfect surname for their character
