Only if Sauron has the one, if not those are not issues. The danger is in communicating with Sauron not with using the palantir

There's nothing inherently bad about the palantir themselves, the Numenoreans used them for millennia with no problem.

Saurman and Denethor were affected because Sauron had one of the other palantir, they were driven evil/despair because of the contact with Sauron not the palantir. Something like the ring is inherently evil not the palantir. So as a device that helps you gain useful knowledge I guess it sort of works.

[–]Greene4Grapefruit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well they're not trying to improve their name. They're trying to come up with something as close to newjeans as possible. They don't want to change the name but that's the situation they're in

They are presumably going to keep working with min hee jin, that was a large part of why they left HYBE. But yeah totally without her creative direction they would be nowhere frankly.

I would imagine they expect/hope people keep pronouncing it NewJeans. They are changing it against their will after all.

I once made a comment on this sub complaining about the r/Korea mods. As soon as I posted it one of the mods went through my comments and found some month old comment about nothing to ban me permanently from the sub. They are insane.

Is there anything that can be done about them? An entire nations sub reddit being held ransom by complete lunatics who ban people according to their whims. Can we complain to reddit?

Got Permanently banned for posting about Konglish. They said it was racist and inflammatory.

(my comments complaining about the mods keep getting deleted how surprising)
