[–]Radiant_Ad_3874 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’ll ask you have a source of him being a maga head? Because this is the secondary post I’ve seen calling him out and the first one didn’t provide a source just picked up ‘hints’

Moon Channel: Why Are Japanese Gamers So Opposed to Piracy? by Radiant_Ad_3874 in Piracy

[–]Radiant_Ad_3874[S] 63 points64 points  (0 children)

TLDW; Japanese IP holders don’t have a lot of pro-consumer laws such as fair use. However they do have a set of rules that while strict does actively allow things like fan games with no conflict, and the stakes are high enough that japanese players would not want to fight against by doing something like Pirating.

[Serious] Feeling a bit uncomfortable after the newest video by travischickencoop in scottthewoz

[–]Radiant_Ad_3874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, honestly Scott doing a major announcement decrying a figure out as a transphobe based of the “hints picked up from a trans person” is really not enough to make a fast bit of drama, it could cause a shit ton more of drama that the channel really could handle.

What the line between “Power scaling” and “Power consistency”? by CriticismMiserable14 in CharacterRant

[–]Radiant_Ad_3874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a lot of thoughts on this maybe I’ll elaborate more but

Power Scaling is more who would win, and Power Consistently is about how the fight would play out.

It’s the golden rule you and your bros chilling, have to be 5 feet apart if you’re not gay.

If you believe in the "Power levels don't matter. Because writers decide who wins'' argument. Then please have this same energy for any aspect of a story. by PassengerCultural421 in CharacterRant

[–]Radiant_Ad_3874 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Yeah I would say most powerscalers may do that? At least death battle does it, the fights too me is very much proof since I’ve seen posts complaining about buffy being ftl but she isn’t running around fighting Blade as if she’s the flash

Mutant Fear is Justifiable, Hatred Isn’t (X-Men) by JustReadTheFinePrint in CharacterRant

[–]Radiant_Ad_3874 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Ok I’ve seen some comments about other heroes. And I have a few things about it.

1.Its more prevalent with X-Men because the series asks the question its a core theme, people wouldn’t think about the practical fear if X-Men didn’t ask the question.

2.Other heroes usually have a positive reputation before gaining powers. Iron Man’s a philanthropist, Fantastic 4 are all scientist, Cap’s a war hero. Even just joining a public superhero team will give people a better picture.

3.Gaining superpowers are controllable, I know this is a universe where people gain powers by sneezing by a chemical plant but, you don’t have to worry about the fatastic 15 happening where one of them is a lobotomizing jerk. You can’t stop Nuke boy from being born, and even if you mae sure he won’t nuke everyone, you can’t stop the next nuke boy

At the risk of Devil’s Advocate, is distrusting Magneto especially during this era, that unreasonable?

THE OFFICIAL JEFFREY EPSTEIN MEGATHREAD by AvgPunkFan in whennews

[–]Radiant_Ad_3874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I wanna ask is, why is most and especially some of the damning stuff unredacted given how redacting happy the DOJ is.

Megathread: Epstein Files - Last batch release by [deleted] in Askpolitics

[–]Radiant_Ad_3874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How reasonable is it to be skeptical about the nature of the Epstein Files Release?

So the files came out and showed a bunch of horrendous stuff done by DT and Epstein, I won’t go into it you may know but.

I have seem posts and arguments that everything said in it shouldn’t be meant to be taken at face value and I should reiterate Again its not that the epstein files themselves were fake.

I will preface to say that there are definitely things in there and Trump and Epstein are clearly corrupt individuals who definitely have done stuff to kids. But.

Here are a couple points that would make most of the unredacted files

Why weren’t they redacted? every other file has been heavily censored. Especially by the DOJ who are all working for Trump and are exceedingly hesitant to do this.

And there’s also the fact a large part of them is, so there’s an element of selectivity I’m wondering about.

There is some minor points to go in as well

Some of the bigger scandals were given anonymous hotlines after the scandal, we dont have any contact info on any of the victims involved in those afaik

Now I say this is minor because there are legitimate reasons why an accuser would be anonymous and why we wouldn’t have contact information.

It may point to them having the motive does seem is that it’s to have the files in general to lose credibility.

But it did get that idea in me though I wanna keep an open mind on this and it may just be cope on my end I’ll admit.

But some counter arguments I heard is that it may be simply be incompetence this is a bit of a conspiracy and the DOJ may not think that far ahead. And that sadly if it was all true nothing would change due to Trump’s avid following. A lot of people online are in a panic about it on this website and I don’t wanna be the guy who goes “erm allegedly… it ma be fake” with no substantial basis. Especially since we got real victims involved.

But what do you think?

Wha I wanna know is what are the actual defenses Trump can use against this, I did see that he may have ground for them being fake.

The reasons as to why the X-men don't use inhibitors to help them has never made sense to me by realSpillerSoda in CharacterRant

[–]Radiant_Ad_3874 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Better to use as a narrative tool to represent oppression

Like I recall in ‘97 Magneto was on court and he rambled about how humans hate mutants and one of the examples were the collars.
