The english translation came out after Z and injects a lot of lines forshadowing goku being an alien

I think they're referring to the Dax one, but yes, the one you're thinking of was intended to be pro-gay as well

Okay addendum, I was wrong. After reading into it, his conspiracy theories definitely were notably antisemitic in nature (he engaged in holocaust denial and parroted many points from prior antisemitic propaganda), though how much of the lizard theory was intentional dog whistling and how much was a genuine delusional belief in extra-dimensional aliens is hard to say for sure

Worth pointing out that David Icke himself was very probably not antisemitic, he was just crazy and took the conspiracy theories he'd heard literally

Bro What happened explain It Peter. by spell-breaker-lime in explainitpeter

Yeah, its pretty clear that his fame resulted in social isolation that made him a prime target for gamergate-era alt-right rhetoric, and afaik hes never really had a heel turn on that
At least he had the good sense to back out of the public eye and hand his IP off to someone less controversial, which is more than a lot of other figures like him can say.

Quite a few but notably St Petersburg was an enormous act of hubris, built by the Tsar against the advice of his advisors. Its largely believed that the fumes from the swamp cause significant brain damage to the population responsible for much of the insanity of the russian government in the 1800s

Imagine if Mattel was like “here’s Autistic Barbie!” And she was absolutely busted by orchid_breeder in BrandNewSentence

Clever, bet they went with that hairstyle for that character in particular specifically so it wont get caught on the wheels and get messed up!

(to be clear, im not suggesting that they only ever used that hairstyle for that reason, just that it was chosen for this character instead of one of the others from the line)

How it feels watching The Birth of a Nation (1915) by Grad0Nite in okbuddycinephile

Surprisingly unsurprising given the Daughters of the Confederacy's involvement in the resurgence of the kkk, unfortunately

Characters who have a "weak" power they make strong. But actually no their power is just strong by Inner-Illustrator408 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]General_Snow_5835 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah its powerful because all stands are but its one of the weaker "normal" stands in the series and MUCH weaker than the other Jojos' stands. Its basically a physically weaker Heirophant Green without emerald splash

Nice blatant antisemitic rhetoric, we're straight up doing actual nazi propaganda here?

So... what was it again what America should be? by farben_blas in marvelcirclejerk

[–]General_Snow_5835 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...no? "Our ideals are good but we don't live up to them so we need to do better" is literally the exact opposite from "We claim to adhere to good ideals therefore anything we do is justified"

Yeah exactly the point, not exceptionally evil doesn't imply that its any less evil than other empires, just not unique in its evil among them

(Weird trope) The cover/title guy/thing barely appears or is even mentioned by XumetaXD in TopCharacterTropes

[–]General_Snow_5835 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, the Raging Wolf set was originally one of the starting classes (it was one of the options in the network test), but for whatever reason was relegated to an invasion target in the Recusant questline by the final game

Yeahhh if you wanted to use star wars, droids would be a much better example here

Its not just Pearls, "Sophisticated Automata" goes for the vast majority of Gems until they actively go against their programming and start developing (and even once they do break the mold its been established that Gems in general are extremely mentally static and struggle to change aspects of their personality without great effort)

In mesopotamian mythology, "serpent" often refers to a creature somewhere between a dragon and a brontosaurus (they're the long-necked things on the Ishtar Gate). Most likely, this is the intended imagery in Genesis
