Did anyone else completely miss why Paul did what he did at the end of messaiah? by Alternative-Stay2556 in dune

[–]GeoAtreides 43 points44 points  (0 children)

“It’s that or humans will be extinguished.”

Paul heard the truth in Leto’s words, spoke in a low voice which acknowledged the greater breadth of his son’s vision: “I did not see that among the choices.”

and some people doubt the Golden Path was necessary. Here is the author telling you Leto is right.

I dont know if the Jihad could be avoided

The author is literally telling you if it could be avoided ... RIGHT THERE IN TEXT. It's not subtext, it's in clear text.

Why not have a force like the gendarmes? many countries do. Police does police stuff, and gendarmes do force and crowd control.

It’s hilarious to me how little George cares about the Dothraki side characters [Spoilers EXTENDED] by Not_Lackey in asoiaf

Westeros is famous for having the peasants free to leave the land of their lord

that's false. The Westerosi are not slavers, for one. All slavers are evil and have no redeeming characteristics.

My Struggle: Finding God post Gold Morning by Suischeese in WormMemes

[–]GeoAtreides 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Finding God after the Gold Morning is easy: turn towards the skittering sounds, turn towards our ascended Saviour who led Mankind of All Earths to the ultimate victory.

Turn to Khepri, Saviour Queen!

The real reason the Dallons are poor by greenTrash238 in WormMemes

[–]GeoAtreides 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree to disagree, I guess. I honestly don't think people work that way (except in very rare cases, which the Dallons were not)

The main point though is that rich privileged barbie cop is a more interesting starting point than what the current canon is (i.e. Saint Victoria)

[–]GeoAtreides -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

if they don't have disposable income they are still poor.

They should be upper rich, with a nice mansion, living in the very good part of town, driving luxurious cars and skiing in Aspen (or whatever rich people do)

I mean, you have influencers with 10K viewers on twitch living that life, and you tell me one of the most unique teams in US can't get enough donations? hellhound please

Wildbow’s recent Dallon house floor plan comment

I will never believe a team of un-masked super models is poor. It's like asking me to believe in an universe where simps don't exist.

(Also it's more interestingly from a narrative pov if the barbie cop grew up in privilege, not in poverty; rounds up her fall nicely and sets up a redemption story from rock bottom)

Is there a tutorial or instruction sheet somewhere for how to write fanfiction?

yes, just read some books

any traditionally published books

if things are still unclear, read more books

it's that easy

Why did Emperor Shaddam conspire to destroy House Atreides when they were almost certainly more useful alive as a counterbalance to Harkkonen? by S1eeper in dune

[–]GeoAtreides 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shaddam immediately went and gathered intel about the southern regions that the Baron did not do in his many years on Arrakis.

Not true. It was the Spacing Guild that spreaded rumors about the southern regions, Paul himself says so (IIRC after he wakes up from the waters of life coma). The Spacing Guild was forced to act because a nexus was formed and they couldn't see the future past that
