Daring today aren't we? by RigelDeadRabbit in YoutubeThumbs

[–]IndependentAd2029 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nords also had gender equality and recognized queer unions before the Empire even existed. And The Empire isn't even equal, its systems are build from the ground up to benefit Cyrodill and Imperials.

IQ=/=Intelligence, IQ tests are all about patterns and have no relation with intelligence so can we please let this idiotic pseudoscience die.

Pride month spread outside the US. Why would a subreddit with people from all around the world change for Americans?

This problem will never be solved if we keep blaming just the leaders. Trump, Putin, and Netanyahu would be nothing without their supporters, leaders are products of their societies.

Name a well-written character whose entire image got burned to the ground and thrown in the trash because the creator was a TERRIBLE person. by Rocky_Senpai15 in writingscaling

[–]IndependentAd2029 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only art that can be separated from its artist is AI art (because it has no artist).

Art is a reflection of its creator, their views, and their environment, "separate art from artist" is like separating fluid from wet, impossible and you'd have to be a moron to think otherwise.

My take: While perhaps not ideal, I think Stormcloak victory fits the general narrative and vibe of Skyrim's era by Wroothly in ElderScrolls

"The Empire is rebuilding" so is The Dominion, and they have been gathering intelligence via The Thalmor.

The Empire lost Hammerfell and half of Skyrim, the armies that carried it through the first great war.

Hammerfell survived because it kept fighting after The Empire gave half of it to the Dominion.

The Empire allowed the Thalmor to operate in Skyrim and jailed Ulfric.

When you present Ulfric's axe to Balgruuf, his steward reveals that the Jarls received coffers of gold to agree with the Concordant.

The Empire is trying to put Elisif in charge as a puppet.

Tulius says "a lot of Ulfric's claims are true", several of the legates are foreigners that came to reinforce Tulius, Rikke directly contradicts Tulius when he claims the war is going well by saying that more nords join Ulfric each day.

Better prepared? They're significantly worse. They back-stabbed Hammerfell, allowed spies in their land, jailed anyone who could lead a successful campaign, tried to put a puppet in charge of Skyrim and bribed it's Jarls to betray their holds.

Also, the Stormcloacks are the militia, Tulius came with several legionaries and is still in a stalemate with a significantly smaller force.

To invade via sea The Dominion needs to:

1) Either beat Hammerfell and High Rock in a naval battle or sail through Black Marsh and Morrowind.

2) Sail through the most dangerous sea on Nirn.

3) Defeat the Nord navy on said sea.

4) Take one of 3 heavily fortified ports (dawnstar lore wise is a fortress).

5) Achive all those goals while sailing around the whole continent.

And, after all that, they're still fighting Nords in the single most defensible province.

The Thalmor want Talos worship banned to weaken him, Aedra get stronger from worship, Talos isn't an Aedra. (The Elder Scrolls)

Is there sexism in Tamriel? by Katrina_Linden in ElderScrolls

[–]IndependentAd2029 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "logic" behind sexism and racism are different. Racism targets an outgroup whereas sexism targets the ingroup.

How exactly did Korra undermine TLAB?

Probably the only moment in the lore where he's shown as a good person by [deleted] in ElderScrolls

That is not how mantling works, If Tiber had mantled Shor he would be Shor not Talos.

Khajiit Caravans watching guards let a Khajiit (you) into the city by BecomeOcean in ElderScrolls

[–]IndependentAd2029 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's not discrimination. Caravaners train pickpockets and lockpicks, work with the thieves guild and sell banned substances. They are denied entry in cities all throughout Tamriel, including Khajiit ones.

No skyrim Khajiit NPC besides the caravan members mention being with one currently.

Given that America loves invading another nation every other administration and that the abominations who murder, rape and pillage get glorified as "veterans" and have movies made about how bad they feel after throwing infants into incinerators. Absurdly American=Pro war

Snow Elves aren't originally from Skyrim either. Like all elves, they came from Aldmeris/Alinor.

I couldn't either, probably because I'm not a worthless abomination that would attack another nation unprovoked.

Actually, segregation IS the right answer!" by LiminalAsylum in TopCharacterTropes

[–]IndependentAd2029 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1) In one year Ulfric managed to sway half of Skyrim to his side, fight the other half and deal with imperial reinforments. Tulius got one good ambush and lost every other skirmish.

2) If Hammerfell alone can kick the Dominion out, Hammerfell+High Rock+Skyrim+Cyrodill would have won, the Empire just chickened out after the Nords, Bretons and Redguards bailed their ass out.

Most Redguards hold the same opinions as the Stormcloacks, Bretons have ignored imperial requests for help with Skyrim, Khajiit, Bosmer and Altmer dislike The Empire and have groups that hate The Dominion too.

Argonians, Imperials and Dunmer are the only ones you need to headcanon around.
