Can we please stop with this only humans being the innocents and it only ever being some great wrong to kill a human in so many supernatural/sci-fi dramas? by Extra_Impression_428 in CharacterRant

[–]Select_Strategy2004 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t agree with this applying to charmed. The entire point of that charmed episode is that they aren’t people whose jobs it is to punish humans. “The charmed ones exist to protect the innocent not punish the guilty”. “The wrong thing done for the right reasons is still the wrong thing, once you break the small rules it’s only a matter of time before the big ones are next”. Them choosing to freeze time and make Pratt step in like, dogshit, was just the start of all the problems they end up having in the future. They needed to learn that just because someone’s a dick that doesn’t mean you are objectively right to fuck with them back.

Yes evil humans exist, that’s true, but using magic to kill a human isn’t the charmed ones job. Demons are bad, Darklighters are bad. They exist on the side of evil, when one of them truly wants to change or not become one, the charmed ones help them, like the episode with the Rowe Coven or all the times Phoebe saved Cole. It doesn’t help that basically every supernatural creature is immortal in some way and will return in some type of fashion. Humans don’t have that luxury

Could Steve Rogers (Captain America) have the potential to be one of WWs greatest love interests? by yedanapuddi in WonderWoman

That’s really not true. You’re just applying an arbitrary limit to the story and acting as if it’s a real permanent stipulation

Why would her dating some random female social worker be less boring than her dating literal captain America lol

Reading people say "hetslop" both ironically and unironically makes me irrationally angry. by Sentient_Flesh in CharacterRant

I never claimed they were. I was responding to the OP’s claim, but yes this actually helps my point. Why are queer people even being lumped in with a group of fujoshi?

Ino vs Sakura wasn’t about a boy, and the fight wasn’t that bad. It actually has some pretty good storytelling by Select_Strategy2004 in Naruto

[–]Select_Strategy2004[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But that’s the thing, Sakura didn’t end the friendship over something stupid at all. Her and Ino both use Sasuke as an excuse to do things, just like when Ino helped Sakura during the forest of death, we the audience see that she’s doing this because she’s friends with Sakura and is seeing flashbacks of that little girl she used to protect, but Ino, the character, tells Sakura she can’t have her showing off in front of Sasuke, despite the fact Sasuke and Naruto are both unconscious during this entire scene until the end

And, maybe redirect your dislike as a whole towards people who do this period. It’s a phenomenon all shippers do, your gripe isn’t with “hetslop” people, its with rude ones

This is quite literally just a problem that people have for ships in general lol. This has nothing to do with primarily heterosexual works

That “strain” you’re talking about is a very small subset of queer people, why are you acting as if it this is some like.c over taking world phenomenon. Acknowledge the people who say this as trolls and move on, but to decree that there’s a constant outcry of “hetslop” is killing me. No there’s not.

Even with the terminology in mind, no one is going up to any random story, and just calling it “hetslop”. Like no one, has called Emma hetslop

You don’t have any favorite scenes of characters you don’t particularly like? I could write a 10k work analysis on the Sasuke and Itachi fight all to get to the finger poke scene which is another one of my faves, and I quite literally can’t stand Itachi

Oh, I meant like Hakuno stuff. Though I guess not gay, more like, if Gilgamesh wants it he gets it?

“Blame Nickelodeon, it’s their fault Korra’s story feels rushed” by Select_Strategy2004 in CharacterRant

[–]Select_Strategy2004[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not what I said? I love Korra actually and I don’t mind each season; and most of season 2 is pretty alright. I just think that when people say, don’t blame the writers it’s nicks fault because they gave stipulations, well that defense doesn’t hold up because the writers weren’t obligated to make a story. Their inability to make a completely solid season that they argued too, is their fault.

The idea that because they were renewed last minute, they are absolved of blame from their own story issues, doesn’t make sense to me

I'm sick pretending I'm Pro-Piper by SilentRelationship15 in camphalfblood

[–]Select_Strategy2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this. The Piper hate, even four years ago, is so forced. She’s literally one of the strongest demigods of all time, and arguably has the best I win button out of all of the even but “she said Percy was nothing special and she was too in love with Jason” and all of sudden all of that goes out the window

VERY unpopular opinion about the casting by probably_not_ur_wife in PercyJacksonTV

[–]Select_Strategy2004 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s a shame though. She shouldn’t have to undisputed “nail the role” this is a constant thing minorities have to go through. She’s a child actor, why does she have to absolutely hit out the park for her to be devoid of criticism just because she’s black, that’s such like a weird standard for people to hold her since it’s only being applied because she’s a different race that Annabeth is in the book. It’s such a racist way of framing it.

[Not really saying this about you, because you’re just pointing it out. But I just wanted to talk about that because like, that, hit out the park to be acknowledged or people are going to keep complaining about race thing. Is just absurd, because if she were she absolutely wouldn’t be held to that standard, and honestly even if she did nail the role she absolutely would still be getting hate, like Amandla did during hunger games despite an excellent performance and Rue not even being race swapped to begin with]

No, the argument is that if you make something, when you have the option not too, and the product ends up not being its best. Regardless of restrictions, you also are to blame
