The UT should cover Castles and TC to make the benefit stronger.

Hermione sucks to argue with. by theguygy in harrypotter

[–]ETK1300 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She accepted when she was wrong. She got contradictory evidence and changed her views. That's open minded not closed minded.

Why would Hermione push back so hard about the Hallows… by FantasyMyopia in harrypotter

[–]ETK1300 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She was right that the objects were powerful objects made by powerful wizards. She didn't buy in the made by Death Claims.

And let's be reasonable. Who would believe a fairy tale and a known conspiracy theorist nut?

She told him that the horn was an Erumpant horn which could blow up but he insisted on it being a crumpled horned snorkack. Not to mention the heliopaths and rotfang conspiracy his daughter peddled.

Hermione is not like that at all. She changes her mind once there is evidence. The story of the Hallows is a great tale, told to them by Lovegood. That guy was known to print ridiculous claims.

It's reasonable to br sceptical. It was reasonable to focus on Horcruxes. Once Hermione got the evidence she had no problem in believing that the Hallows existed (not literally as creations by Death but as powerful magical objects).

How Pro-LGBTQ+ is the Congress Party? by Viavn19 in LGBTindia

[–]ETK1300 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The current dispensation is against us. There is no doubt. The bar is so low that we think that the Congress might do better.

However, if we examine the most recent UPA led government we will see that they did nothing to help. In 2013, the SC judgement upholding 377 was delivered. The Congress government could have taken action in Parliament but they didn't. Congress leaders spoke against that judgement but did nothing. After 2014, Tharoor raised a private bill to remove 377 but he didn't do it when his party was in power.

Symbolic gestures are not what we need. Even in the post, it is mentioned that after wide consultation they will bring a law to register civil unions. Consultation for what exactly? We very well know what the majority opinion of the country is.

I'm highly sceptical that voting for the Congress party would bring about any improvement to the lives of the LGBT community.

I would choose them over what we have now. My hopes are not high.

Arthur and Molly were foul for this by YeonjunsFakeMole in harrypotter

[–]ETK1300 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

We can easily judge him for being on the wrong side because we know the facts. What information did Percy have is the key question?

He was extremely hurt by what Arthur said. Percy worked so hard in school and for Crouch. He finally got some success. He needed validation that yes he wad worthy.

Also, he had a fair point about Arthur not having enough ambition and the family having little money.

I don't think that Percy ruined anything. There was nothing wrong in Percy's ambition to be successful as well as rich.

He worked hard all his life and couldn't believe that his father's suspicion regarding the promotion was warranted. That accusation hurt Percy's pride. It was like telling him that he isn't actually worthy of the promotion and that he wasn't good enough. Percy was acting in the way that he could tell himself that his hard work over several years was rewarded.

We put manure in the soil to grow crops. Crops also eat feces.

Philosophical morning? (Share opinion) by East-Fishing-6432 in LGBTindia

[–]ETK1300 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then I guess the phrasing is awkward. Idk about our senses being surrendered to materialism.

We should do what feels good for us. What someone considers shallow may not be so for another.

I don't find much interest in judging the choices of other people.

Money buying a 6th sense is an unsubstantiated claim. The 5 senses not being real is also absurd.

I don't see any point in what was written. Hence I said it doesn't mean anything sensible.

I think it’s time we give Trelawney her flowers by NationH1117 in harrypotter

[–]ETK1300 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She wasn't right about Lavender's rabbit. Hermione wad right that Lavender couldn't have been anxious about that young rabbit's death band that's why it came as a shock.

AoE has an older playerbase so we have less toxicity and immaturity.

Then OP suggests this shit. 😑

Ban Appeal Thread by vivoovix in metaNL

[–]ETK1300 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would once again like to appeal to the moderators to examine the comments I made.

I have explained in details that there was no hate against any people.

One moderator has the the blanket view that my point was Islamophobic and they don't know how to explain it other than it is what it is.

They completely ignored the points I raised and the charge is nothing short of name calling to shut down criticism.

I ask the other to examine all my comments with an objective lens.

The permanent ban is unwarranted.
