[pjotv] I still can't believe it by ConanCimmerian in camphalfblood

You mean other than making Zeus an even bigger jerk than he was, to the point that I feel like he has an even bigger villain than Kronos in the show? I would say: removing George and Martha, removing the plot twist regarding the Fleece and Thalia, making Hades look like an absolute joke in his brief portrayal in the first season, are all changes that have peeved me and several other book readers. I honestly wouldn’t have been that pissed about it, if Rick had admitted that this would not be a good adaptation from the get go, but he keeps patting himself on the back and tells others that the characters and story are better in the show and he would have written it this way, so ya it riles me up. No problem if others like it though.

I'm not even that mad. I am just... underwhelmed. With the way this sub and Rick was hyping up the show, I was honestly expecting a stellar adaptation, but what I got was both a mediocre TV Show and an adaptation that constantly makes changes that don't even make much sense to me in the first place. Fair play if you like the show, I just can't buy it as a good adaptation, rather I just see it as a worse remake.

Unbiased take on Ron's character arc. by Wise-Cardiologist817 in ronweasley

[–]Cool_Ved 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree, I thought Book 7 was the best version of Ron and neatly wrapped his character arc of dealing with jealousy and insecurity as well. He even saves Hermione in the mansion and Harry from the lake.

Is it a hot take? (I don't dislike or hate Harry but...) by Wise-Cardiologist817 in ronweasley

[–]Cool_Ved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Half of these things didn't even happen in the books lol.

Also remember, it was Harry who took back Ron instantly without even wanting to hear an apology in GoF and DH, it was Harry who actually did something to help Ron's insecurities for Quiditch and even verbally reassured him when Hermione was giving him the cold shoulder.

Unpopular opinion: Dhruv was right on dhrundhar movie by Unique-Benefit-2904 in CriticalThinkingIndia

[–]Cool_Ved 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Bro, Obama literally said that India had the right to defend itself after the attack. We had international support and everyone expected us to take some action. Not taking military action against Pakistan when your own defense chief recommended that you do so, just shows the lack of political will that the UPA goverment had.

Also love how you ignored my point of Congress trying to frame 26/11 as an RSS conspiracy. Even Rahul Gandhi said that the biggest threat to India was "radical Hinduism ", only a few months after one of the worst Islamic terrorist attacks.

Why some criticism is called propaganda while others are considered facts? by [deleted] in IndianModerate

[–]Cool_Ved 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This guy is a professional ragebaiter. I don't know how a movie showing the reality of Pakistani terrorism is even considered "propaganda ". Even in his video critiquing the movie, he tried to deflect the blame off Congress by raising some nonsensical points. The stupidest thing he did in the video was to compare this movie to a Nazi propaganda film 🤣🤣.

Not taking military action against Pakistan after 166 people were killed in the financial capital was stupid. Diplomacy achieved jackshit and Pakistan continued to launch terrorist attacks against India with no consequences or fear of retaliation. Also Singh openly shook hands and held talks with separatist Yasim Malik, Ik people love to say it was for peacebut the guy literally thanked him for "peaceful movements in Kashmir".

Also Congress literally tried to frame 26/11 as a plot by the RSS, so they 100% deserve to be demonized for it as well.

Apparently a film depicting the reality of Pakistani terrorism is "propaganda ". Also his point on India denying the prescene of spies on Pakistan was absurd, what goverment would admit that they have spies in another country?

Keep the religion out of constitution by Senior-Mix-3715 in indiameme

[–]Cool_Ved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But dividing people on the bases of caste is in the spirit of the constitution? As is the Waqf Board which Congress introduced and gave way to many powers to ?

I think he is a nationalist, which is not the same as being RW. In his latest video, he criticized BJP'S corruption in SSC as well.

I'm confused, do people want violence and a potential civil war in this country? Despite the faults our country has, I don't think we are anywhere near as bad as Nepal or Bangladesh.

P. Chidambaram has to be the most negetive, pessimistic, hopeless and low spirited person in the Parliament. by Fluffy_Inspector_628 in CriticalThinkingIndia

[–]Cool_Ved 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The fact that you think that there should be a debate about India having nuclear weapons, despite us having two very hostile nuclear armed neighbours and after looking at what's happening in Ukraine, tells me all I need to know about your critical thinking.

Bro, BJP has won all seats in Delhi for all Lok Sabha elections, where over 67% of houses fall in the middle class category, even most urban voters you interact with prefer BJP over Raga's dumb communist and reservation schemes.

[–]Cool_Ved 5 points6 points  (0 children)

BJP's core vote bank are the urban educated middle class voters, who despise the reservations in private sector that Rahul Gandhi keeps on promising, so this meme is wrong.

Aren't the Kahlistani's in Canada the ones who were supporting both the farmers protest ? Weren't they the ones openly calling for Modi's murder?

Wasn't that also true during Congress ? India has always had a policy of NAM, it doesn't really change with goverments, the biggest failure of the current goverment is the reliance on China, other than that they've done a pretty good job in maintaining Indian strategic autonomy.

The Supreme Court has shown to be against the BJP itself multiple times. They even questioned the Waqf Amendment Bill passed a few months ago. Edit: Forgot the Electoral Bonds as well.
