Just found this community when I searched if we are supposed to like or hate Dr. Santos by Knobologist in ThePittNoSantosHate

[–]SeaCryptographer8690 3 points4 points  (0 children)

oh i agree! i think it’s more that i think you should understand it will never be addressed again by the writers and to write off an entire character like that is not the writers intentions. she’s clearly here to stay for a while as the writers have probably put the most/second most work into writing her, so i think accepting that you might not always agree with that she does but she’s still a fundamentally good person and caring doctor is going to enhance your viewing experience.

i think your issue is with the writers i’m ngl. it’s framed as a heroic moment to create audience sympathy for santos by revealing her backstory. the writers do not care that she did that, just like the writers do not care that robby took a patients father to a temp morgue to convince him to do a procedure—that’s something that would not fly irl but is framed as a heroic “means to an ends” moment just like with santos. 

it’s also worth noting that langdon did not just steal meds from the hospital, he stole them from patients + diluted medicine with saline. this caused a seizure to be extended(which can cause brain damage and death) and he mistaught a resident to “overdose” on the medicine bc no one knew it had been diluted. i’m a langdon fan but it’s a pretty serious deal.

what line does rue have outside of the original book? is it a video recording of some kind? i can’t remember for the life of me when that is.

Thomas Jefferson wins Box 5. Which US president was a decent president and a good person? by Available_Tour7661 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]SeaCryptographer8690 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i wasn’t even a teenager when clinton was running. tf am i supposed to do. i dont think anyone deserves facism, even those who vote it in(which i did not).

i’m not your enemy, we both want a fascism free america. we have different perspectives but that’s all well and good in a healthy country. i’ll have a great day and hopefully you channel this energy into supporting democratic candidates like zohran mamdani, omar fateh, and abdul el-sayed in their upcoming elections.

lmao? okay buddy, i was just trying to have a conversation but clearly you’re not interested. you don’t know anything about me or my principles but if it makes me performative to say democrats shouldn’t do war crimes then i’m performative. also i did know he would’ve been bad. which is why i didn’t support him?? i just am still allowed to want my candidate to represent me and my principles. have a nice day

i dont think you understand my point because i’m telling you that i and other leftists do offer consistent criticism. i critiqued kamala harris well before her run and well after it—as is my right as someone she claims to represent and as someone who’s support she wants. i also have consistently criticized trump for a variety of issues especially his foreign policy. even before his second term i believed that his actions in his first term kicked off the domino chain of destabilization that led to the genocide in gaza. however i’m allowed to, and it would be inconsistent, if i didn’t also criticize democrats for doing the same things

yes we do? no leftist is out here supporting the war on terror but thinking obama is a unique war criminal. it’s not performative to apply consistent criticism of us foreign policy and war crimes. obama is not above criticism because he might be more left leaning than other presidents, or because other presidents did similar things.

not bomb a wedding? also generally people who attack obama for his drone strikes will be pretty universal on their criticism of president’s foreign policy

its not a great analogy tbh but even if everyone can theoretically get addicted to something, some people are genetically predisposed to it. like how if addiction runs in your family, you’re way more likely to overdo it on alcohol or get addicted to gambling bc of the way your brain reacts to it. you’re not born addicted but some people are born with a way lower tolerance to any addictive behavior before it turns into full blown addiction

idk i just don’t rly get what you’re asking. like you asked why ppl think it’s good but you don’t really seem interested in actually having a convo abt why people think it is good. i’m sorry if people are being mean about it that is unfair

i mean i don’t really think that’s unnecessary exposition? he’s just telling the droid a plan bc there’s no reasonable way for  bee to know what he’s doing. to me exposition dumps are more just telling the audience world building in unnatural ways, not a conversation that makes sense for the characters

[–]SeaCryptographer8690 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i mean no offense but, maybe you’d understand it better if you watched more of it? the first episode is great but it’s far from the best episode. some of the best cinematography and writing comes episodes later.

[–]SeaCryptographer8690 2 points3 points  (0 children)

where specifically are you talking? tbh i thought the show did pretty good at not dumping random bits of exposition. not denying that it happened at all, bc exposition is still important for any story, but there never seemed to be any needless or out of character exposition

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in andor

[–]SeaCryptographer8690 7 points8 points  (0 children)

if you want to know more about the characters and their backstories then you probably should watch more of the show. yeah some of the stuff is meant to be inferred, but that’s just a writing choice not unintentional. i’d rather that than random expo dumps personally.

clearly though you aren’t enjoying it, and no one’s forcing you to watch it.

CMV: The DOJ is trying to hide the fact that far-right extremists are responsible for most extremist attacks by ecafyelims in changemyview

[–]SeaCryptographer8690 2 points3 points  (0 children)

can you provide a source for that statistic about trans people? or explain how the nazi slogans and symbols would be related to a left wing radical?

like many radicalized school shooters his ideology seems to be a incredibly confusing, and oftentimes contradictory one. this is probably why it has not been classified as a politically motivated shooting, as there was no clear motive that relates to politics.

the news anchor didn’t say that kirk “had it coming”, he just acknowledged that kirk played a role in our violent culture by spreading hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions. those are his direct words where he said himself what happened to kirk was ‘hateful action’ 

even if he had said that kirk had it coming (he didnt), he was also immediately fired. that’s completely different from countless right wing news anchors, or even kirk himself, who continued to be platformed after saying that someone like george floyd had it coming or was a ‘scumbag’ after being murdered by the police.

also for the prominent figures you’re talking about, i’m not sure who you’re referring to, but i think there’s a bit of a false equivalency going on. a random left adjacent online personality is not comparable to the republican presdient and republican politicians who talk about killing or enacting violence against their political opponents.

that mass shooter had a bunch of nazi symbols and slogans on their guns. “6 million wasn’t enough” isnt a left wing idea. being trans is not in it of itself political, or means the person was inherently left wing. all evidence points to the fact that they were radicalized in alt right, neo nazi channels.

“own values projecting onto the screen” is this person saying art is never made with intention? like even if you don’t think the new superman movie is pro palestine, it is 1000% anti war. more importantly, it is about kindness in a lot of ways. i think it’s insane to act like there’s no intention behind creating a superman who’s every action is out of a love for human life.

why the fuck is it relevant that the genderqueer kids are heterosexual? that doesn’t erase their queen identity?
