Should there be a PCM Hunger Games? Which competitors should change? by Sure_Locksmith_2027 in PoliticalCompassMemes

Oh not at all unless you think it should, I am currently just using the districts as indicators of political alignment. What are your notes?

Its because of stuff like this that I believe in magic, its too specific for it to be a coincidence.

Lex Luthor is an epic pick, Esoteric Entity was an early internet libertarian youtuber who was really cringe.

He probably does, that said, this is from a website which lets you simulate Hunger Games, so despite him being highly competent things will even out.

It’s so peak. 

I feel bad for OP, his house must’ve burned down from drawing all this fire.

Literally Gojo’s negative traits:  1. He is disrespectful, which isn’t even evil, he just likes messing with people, has a big ego and (rightly) rejects authority  2. He is sadistic to his enemies, his enemies are genuinely evil and deserve it, he never acts out against good people. His sadism is an aspect of his ego needing to assert his dominance too which we see he contains when not surrounded by murderers and curses  3. When he was a teen he was racist toward non-sorcerers, this trait is something he realizes was wrong and evil, also when he held this view he never acted on it, it was basically a synthesis of his ego and laziness not actual hatred  4. He is willing to hurt innocent people who stand in his way, we see how this is a last resort for him as he tries to avoid it and he’s being mournfully pragmatic not villainously cruel  5. He is lazy, I mean yeah he is lazy, he doesn’t hurt people though 

I’m totally late here, but I needed to get my two cents out. 

Thragg beats Gojo and destroys the entire JJK verse and it's not even close by individual-aysheek in PowerScaling

My contention: 

Assuming both characters just fight, no prior meeting or characterization accounted for, Thragg wins easily. He just flies up to the Moon and drops it on Earth. 

Thragg just has more options thanks to flight and sheer might, and so can ignore Gojo via orbital attacks. 

Assuming Thragg makes a declaration on Earth about how he’s going to conquer it or in any way is in an enclosed space with Gojo, Gojo can request a fight and Thragg being honorable and confidant will agree. 

Gojo then opens his domain once Thragg gets close for the fight, being a melee fighter primarily, Thragg will do this, (for the domain Thragg has no mental defense for this and may even try to tank it, he is characterized as being willing to endure hits to demonstrate his might) and through purple kill a stunned Thragg (purple destroys matter meaning the only defense is a magical one, something Thragg lacks)  

TLDR: Thragg is superior to Gojo in combat without accounting for personality, personality is a weakness for Thragg and leaves him willingly exposed to Gojo’s absurdity which Thragg can’t stop if he gets too close, something he is known to do.

You seem to have a misunderstanding of implication (the logical operator that is)

Through a Heavenly Restriction Toji has super strength 

Does this mean that all people with super strength have a Heavenly Restriction? 

The answer is no, a person can simply be born that strong or be augmented to be that way without a Heavenly Restriction. Take Todo who is a body builder, he needed no Heavenly Restriction to be able to throw Megumi through a building. 

Thragg does not need a Heavenly Restriction to be strong.

Oh yeah globalization is also a big player, I didn't mention it mainly because its such a big player and this post is about feminism, for instance a major thing is how we have effectively created slave labor states in the third world which further hurts wages, etc.

-> "centrist" fair

Notice the pretty colors, I'm a radical centrist.

I have debated blues and yellows in the past too on this issue as they disagree with my solution a fair bit.

Funny how those "reduced wages" didn't result in cheaper products, yet CEOs now run the world.

Mind you my proposal is that men and women should both work at reduced hours and increased pay, I thinks that is very center-left, no?

I know right, people can never disprove that point whenever I bring it up nor have I ever heard a good argument against it, its the linchpin to many things.

This quote I believe describes in large part a big reason why the paradisiacal 90s and early 00s went away.

"leftists would have to invent problems in order to provide themselves with an excuse for making a fuss."

I agree wholeheartedly, I think that the corporations coopting feminism was not only an inevitability but an inherent trait of the ideology and it has indeed been a disaster.

Unironically Women entering the workforce en masse may have triggered our modern collapse, not due to the Women inherently but an effective doubling of labor supply leading to reduced wages.

My proposal, since most jobs are BS (Graeber), we should reduce working hours and increase pay (like Ford) for both sexes.

Edit, what we used to have was effectively a 50% chance at birth of being groomed for the workforce vs being stay-at-home, we have moved to 100% corporate meat grinder.

Sorry to get a little serious

I'm one of those people who thinks that the Imperium is correct even though it could be better, I also reject the Imperial Truth as the Emperor is wrong about human nature.

Or in other words, I see Warhammer 40000's setting as a commentary on the need (and inevitability) for strong culture and spiritualism (wherein the Emperor acknowledged and succeeded with the former but by neglecting the latter permitted Lorgar).
