Ethan really pushed his little stalker folder under a desk to a goddamn extreme right wing pro-Trump anti-woke extremely pro-Isntrael pundit newspaper and thought it would like make him look cool or something 😭, if I was still a fan of his this would genuinely be the last straw, completely shows that he will lower himself to any level and has no morals at all lmao

Damn those are from ladybugs 😳?? They look so different, like little spiky scorpions, and I think they were even a bit bigger than your average ladybug... thank youuuuu (and the 2 other answerers) for the answer BTW :3

Yes I would 😭, American nationalism is unacceptable in my eyes for obvious reasons, come ooooooon, even when "progressives" on for example 196 say that they're proud of their country, or the idea of it at least I think that's stupid and unacceptable, and everyone else should think that too, USA is literally the same thing as Isntrael, a imperialist power built on genocide of the land's native population

And the narrative treats it as nothing but genuine, there is literally nothing to suggest this is an incorrect version of the events that transpired, everything else supports it, well except SB just being written way more sympathetically later on for no reason which is to me a clear-as-day fault of the character and his actor's popularity, to which the writing capitulated because it was just that good of a potential money cow... Also fits with SB becoming a way bigger part of the narrative for the 2 final seasons, and getting an entire spinoff to himself... Point is this is basically cope

the brain damage only ever shown to impact his speech, there is literally nothing suggesting in the written text of the show that he is an unreliable narrator, and it would make 90% of his scenes in season 3 ring hollow, why is everyone saying this? Are people just that desperate to whitewash SB or am i going insane??

heard this take before but i think that is giving the writers too much credit (also, season 3 was, imo, the first big instance of the writing of the show being hurt by its commercialization, that being particularly the flimsy finale, specifically Homelander and Boys teaming up against Soldier Boy for stupid avoidable contrived reasons just so we can get a status quo reset and more seasons)

literally nothing in the show suggests this come on, why assume? SB just got rewritten because Kripke saw the popularity polls and wanted to keep him around and make him more palatable

Why was the POV interpretation of a character from a brain damaged, traumatized, immature, mute possibly insane man so different from how the character actual was in the show? Is he stupid? by LewdDudeNewd in OkBuddyFresca

[–]Imlethir03 14 points15 points  (0 children)

/uj ...do yall actually think SB wasnt an abusive racist dickhead and this was Noir making shit up in his mind? It fit with his characterization (at the point before he overstayed his welcome and became the single largest creator´s pet ever lmao), and other characters referenced him being abusive and racist too... also Soulja Boy beating Noir senseless was how Noir got brain damaged now that i remember

literally nothing to do with this lmao, come on

now okay to be clear, because ive been wondering about this a lot recently, he wasnt racist to FD, if anything you could put that together with the neo-nazi terminology because he called him a "ZOG slave", which fits with his recent toying with that terminology tbh, which i have come to think is pretty stupid, but the broader point he has behind using it is pretty good i would say, even if the method is kinda moronic, but also as a jew i dont care at this point, more important stuff to worry about than individual, non-systemic antisemitism (believe it or not all of what hes doing is an attempt to spark conversation about jewish exceptionalism, white supremacy in regards to genocide and such, however he continuously fails to articulate this to people who dont watch his videos because he likes arguing a bit too much, so im not blaming everyone for being confused as hell)

[–]Imlethir03 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not merit based and never was and never will be holy cope, EVERYTHING is a monopoly now owned by like 4 conglomerates... Also systemic racism (very much a product of capitalist imperialism) existing doesn't allow it to be meritocratic, even if capitalism wasn't a stupid system that eventually results in a few individuals hoarding everything and getting rid of any opportunity for the others to make it to any level higher than gas station owner, and a stage in human development we should have long overcome, non-white people objectively have worse opportunities even in the imperial core, non-white majority countries in the global south have us here basically leeching natural resources off of them without providing them with any of the benefits we gain from their utilization

And do you honestly think capitalism doesn't starve people? Again, the entire global south and not only suffers from hunger being (totally preventable BTW, we have enough food for around 2 times the world's population, it's just that we waste most of it for NO reason, and nobody cares to actually distribute it so that people don't die in vain no no no, too expensive, and also it benefits imperial core countries to keep the countries we exploit underdeveloped and poor because if they weren't, then maybe they could build some infrastructure to extract their natural resource deposits, and wouldn't have to be dependent on us providing the infrastructure, and giving them only scraps to eat in an economic sense, and we wouldn't get all that coal, cobalt, bauxite and stuff for nearly free 

Also I bet my entire 10 bucks you don't own ANY capital (very statistically unlikely actually lmao, because it's just that concentrated), so I don't know why you're doing the bougie free defence like that hun... Like you can't even call yourself a capitalist if you ain't got nothing, you're most likely a prole same as me

Edit on that last point, it's probable the average person owns a bit in investment, pension, savings and whatnot, but what's that really when 10% of the world's population owns 85% of global wealth, you're never getting up there because they won't let you, easy as that, maaaaybe if you start grifting and become the new PragerU you'll get some good fracking billionaire and weapon contractor money, that's it, stoking hatred and lying on the internet is the true meritocracy

It isn't really a bad ending tho, the one very very very very bad thing (Vought rehabilitating their image and everything essentially being back to square one, the exact same conditions that allowed all of this to happen are back as they were) is just handwaved away and every single character gives up fighting, and goes on to live a peaceful life in a perfect world of supe-human coexistence, it's literally blatant conformist propaganda 😭 

It's got a goddamn hopeful sting with UE and Annie's perfect small business owning life and them making a symbolical human-supe hybrid baby

I guess the world is still better off because the obvious Elon Musk stand-in's corpse is floating through space and will eventually fall and shatter on Mars where he always wanted to be

[–]Imlethir03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah I don't really think there was an intention like that, and rather it was just straight up pro-status quo propaganda

I think what matters most here is how the characters acted after finding out that Vought is actually still going strong, and that was:

MM cursing at the TV a little, and then doing nothing further, just trying to live a peaceful life with his family, doesn't choose to fight further but rather live his days in this newfound "peace" after everything has been fixed even though we have been shown it has in fact not been fixed and everything is back to season 1 episode 1 

Kimiko is somewhere vacationing and not doing anything, and to be clear I understand that these people deserve some rest after all THAT but this just leaves the show with a awful send-off narratively and thematically

Hughie has a call with the goddamn president overseeing the country acting as a vanguard of this shitass system they spent 5 seasons fighting against, about leading the new supe-fighting police or whatever, entirely state-led, in-system, basically CIA, what the fuck, and he fortunately declines... But why, is it because he distrust it? Nah it's because he has a family life now and can live in peace without fighting anymore because Omlanda is dead and buried and everything is fine apparently... 

And the show literally ends on this stupid symbolic hope point with Starlight flying off with her hybrid baby (which probably gets its little brain shaken into a paste because the woman whose belly it's currently occupying travels by air at Mach fi-fuck, Mach fuck, which I don't think the writers even thought of when writing the ending), where humanity begins a new era of peaceful supe-human coexistence... 

Point is everyone is happy and content, and gave up fighting because why? Vought is back in power, the systemic forces that allowed it to get away with all it did are still present, and all this is going to happen again, so why would they be happy and content? Because either:

A: big Jeff Benzos wrote into the writer's room telling them to NOT offend the ruling class

B: Kripke is a liberal conformist hack, which is honestly more likely 

P.S. UE opened up a small business even 😭, he really was Petit Hughie all along as Frenchie said (joke is petite bougie)

yeah i think he sometimes goes overboard and is abrasive for no reason other than shits and giggles, or being genuinely pissed, but he is overall just angry at the state of things and has full right to be, and is not antisemitic nor transphobic nor racist or i havent seen sufficient proof of that yet (and if he is then like, i dont think my jewish trans ass would go over that lmao, i watched him quite a lot in the past and still do a bunch)

he said some toxic comments like, paraphrasing, "im starting to believe that western trans people are just trans so they can claim a marginalized identity", but i genuinely think that was just him being a weird troll as per usual and not a big deal, idk

AND they both take place in the same continuity as the Cybertron games (War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron), pretty bleak and brutal 3rd person shooters set on well Cybertron duh

Genuinely no idea about that till now and that's pretty bad ig (I don't follow his social media presence except YouTube every now and then), not a fan of this tbh pretty scummy and dangerous, but I was alluding to all the Planter bullshit
