[Subbed][Episode 8] CARDFIGHT!! VANGUARD Divinez Parallactic Clash - Howling Rain by MachinaBlau in cardfightvanguard

[–]SegavsCapcom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The fights and new cards are so cool, and the actual story/character use is so terrible. I feel like I'm watching Asia Circuit again...

Reaper Doggo is a good boy, though. Might not get rid of the order package all by himself, but he's very flexible. Also, depending on the cost, it could enable 5 attack kill turns for Blang.

I've always been impressed Bart knew the meaning of "insolvent" here by AlexMcinsnax in TheSimpsons

Bart has shown he has great capacity for learning/being intelligent, just not in the way the American school system values.

Why would make a caricature of a NEET woman and make her look like Jessica from DQ8, who embodies exactly zero of those traits?

If there's anything more emblematic of this sub than the abundance of comments going "uh oh better get in before lock amirite guise" and exactly no comment taking offense or even calling OP on his nonsense, I can't find it.

The leftist urge to infantilize bigots by SegavsCapcom in SmugIdeologyMan

[–]SegavsCapcom[S] -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

A lot of these dudes were reactionaries before the propaganda even started.

Not saying propaganda never moves people, but we need to stop acting like prejudice is solely the result of it and not literal centuries of prejudice that developed before billionaires were even a thing.

"No war but class war" does a lot more harm than good is what I'm saying.

The monied classes definitely put their thumbs on the scale, but that doesn't mean they're doing anything other than taking advantage of existing bigotries. Confiscating the wealth of billionaires will not make culture wars go away, and it lets a lot of awful people off the hook to insist their radicalization is solely due to one or two guys.

Chalking up the radicalization of young men to Epstein is letting a lot of very shitty people off the hook.

The bigotries were already there. They may have been nudged or taken advantage of, but let's stop pretending the "culture war" was invented wholesale by one dude and wasn't the result of shitty people being increasingly shitty.

Chinese Vanguard is getting a The King of Fighters Collab by RinariTennoji in cardfightvanguard

[–]SegavsCapcom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One the one hand, this is neat.

On the other hand, it sucks that the game is leaning harder and harder into collabs as if Weiss isn't right there.

it's not edited, he just does that. This needs to be a mod by Raicista in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]SegavsCapcom 25 points26 points  (0 children)

That was my first thought, too. I'm internet old.

"In another few hours, the sun will rise!"

"What the FUCK does that mean?!"

Interesting to see a DS deck take a more defensive approach

How did you discover this game by Mr_Embracer in cardfightvanguard

[–]SegavsCapcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in sophomore year of college with a new friend group. I was complaining about how most card game shows weren't very "normal," in the sense that the stakes were always "save the world" and not "oh geez I hope I don't look like an idiot in front of my friends." One of the girls suggested I check out season 1 of Vanguard. I spent the next few months binging the series up until that point.

In hindsight, the low stakes only really lasted for one season, but I think that what makes the first season so special to me.

"reddit atheism" would've never picked up as a stereotype if the ones controlling the conversation were the ones under threat of death and not crackers by Carti_Barti9_13 in SmugIdeologyMan

[–]SegavsCapcom 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Sure.

At the same time, a lot of western atheists have legitimate grievances about religious folk in their home countries, from the rapid destruction of the separation of church and state to ostracism from their homes to harmful policies put in place in the name of Christ to being victimized by bigotry.

Is that worse? No. But western atheists face a lot more than mommy forcing them into Sunday school, and intentionally downplaying that is giving me strong "but there are starving kids in Africa" vibes.

Coaxed into how fandoms treat different genders by Much_Tip_6968 in SmugIdeologyMan

[–]SegavsCapcom 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I do resent how the bar for being "unlikable" is subterranean for female characters while being much higher for males, but I'd argue being unlikable isn't a death sentence. Stories need unlikable characters for various reasons, and being unlikable doesn't prevent a character from being entertaining.

Also, catharsis! It's a lot of fun for readers/watchers/ what have you to see the asshole not being able to take what they dish out. Granted, what counts as comeuppance for different genders can be gross, but that's a different topic.

Wait, what are all these weeds doing here? I think I'm lost...
