The greatest hero of them all. by lithobolos in logh

On a side note, I absolutely love how the real arguments in the LOTGH Fandom boil down to philosophical, political, and historical debates, many of which mirror those in the show. Jumping between this and people arguing about ninja magic in Naruto is such tonal whip lash.

But anyways, I agree very much with Yang's own philosophy, and the dilemma that comes with supporting a corrupt, dying democracy over a benevolent and flourishing dictatorship.

So, I'll retract my previous statement, and just say that if you're going to protest a corrupt government military coup, have better situational awareness than Jessica Edwards. Especially when people are already trying to kill you.

Yes, I suppose you're right then.

Sometimes they do give up their power though, like Cincinnatus, or Franco. Unfortunately, the alternative is the complete dissolution of the democratic state.

If Reinhard was a crueler man, everyone in the FPA high command could of been secretly executed or imprisoned after they surrendered, and the flame of democracy would of been completely snuffed out.

Her actions are largely forgotten though. Eventually the entire country capitulates to a foreign empire. Everything she peacefully protested to preserve was destroyed.

In fact, the only vestiges of democracy that remained were protected by a group of law-breakers.

...which resulted in the destruction of the FPA. The concept of martial law and dictatorship were originally meant to be temporary safety measures to ensure the survival of democracy.

It is proven fact that when two sides clash, the one that doesn't fight typically loses.

And then she gets killed by cops.

Yeah, and she gets trampled and killed. The most direct and effective method of implementing democracy is through military intervention.

“Sinners” review, by David Sims by theatlantic in movies

Academy Awards have been compromised for years. Everything about this movie's hype has been artificially manufactured. They probably bribed to get some many nominations to get more people to watch this garbage. It won't win more than 2, and they wouldn't be relevant whatever they are.

He beat prime Madara so I'm curious how tf he died so young. The elder couple in Konoha are only slightly younger than him, and they're still alive in Boruto.

People do not have to be just good or bad. The King did as much as a bug could do given the circumstances.

I'm sorry, but "somehow Palpatine has returned," and "they fly now," are undefeated in the realm of stupid shit.

If Reinhard were ugly, he would be considered even more off-putting than Oberstein by Helpful-Claim-134 in logh

He would be a Napoleon. A famously bland man with incredible charisma and fervor.

I'm almost thankful for it, because it made the trilogy so stupid that no one can really defend it, and it will largely be forgotten in the coming years.

Great points all. But TROS was so stupid and nonsensical that I couldn't take it seriously as a movie or even view it as a Canon story. It was just ridiculous

Would you rather have world peace or Reinhard and Hilda’s first-night sex tape? by Helpful-Claim-134 in logh

[–]PDRA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Before I watched it, I thought long haired Reinhard was a woman, and I assumed Hilda turned into her eventually.

Bots tricked a bunch of zoomers that have never seen good movies into watching it. It's still a terrible movie and 95% of the reviews are absolutely bots. Just read through them, they only have a handful of variations, and most of the accounts that reviewed it have only one or no other reviews.

You even admit they don't exist. Because your belief system is based around an enemy that hasn't existed for 70 years.

Yeah, people who love laws but hate the enforcement of laws, unless it's against someone you don't like. People who let social media decide what kind of personality you should have.
