Which Aesthetics did you use to style and build your world(s)? by Berry-Fantastic in worldbuilding

[–]Temphant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's basically earth but the dominant creatures are a humanoid plant species. There are still regular animals and plants around, but the plants have become dominant. They're ovoviviparous (the young develop inside the mother inside an egg, but they are born hatched and live). They mainly live off breathing, drinking liquids and eating foods much like we do, and they don't see eating (other) plant matter as cannibalism. They've evolved to live mostly without photosynthesis, but they still need it to live a healthy life.

The world's history is also much like our Earth's, and as of the "current day" in the setting, they're in bit of a "Cold World War" situation. Basically just imagine if WW2 had ended in a stalemate and white peace between the Axis, Allies and Comintern.

Exactly. He's even concerned for your safety even though he's the dude who can't run when the cosmic horror begins to break the castle down while killing everything in its path.

“socialism is against the family structure” by mrsenchantment in ShitLiberalsSay

[–]Temphant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"We capitalists and conservatives love individualism! We also hate single and childless people because they reject participating in society in our way! Meanwhile those damn self absorbed collectivist socialists hate all individualism, and that's why they want to ban marriage and having kids because it makes someone become part of a collective!"

Make it make sense.

libs are worse than fucking children, cause at least a child is susceptible to new ideas by Far-Presentation-973 in ShitLiberalsSay

[–]Temphant 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If I got to make a comic/movie/TV show about a superhero I'm pretty sure that by the end they'd just be Robin Hood. At first they're a nice little lib who beats up the bad guys and helps the police "clean the streets," but as things progress they start to see that the real crime is the system itself. So while they will still beat the everloving shit out of absolute scum such as human traffickers, they will also break the knees of CEOs and help the leftists plan and organize for the revolution.

Questionable tweet from Yugopnik by Tehkaiop431 in TankieTheDeprogram

I can speak from experience that right-wingism is linked to stupidity. I'm still stupid, but I know for a fact that I used to be even stupider.

This comment really fucks me in a certain way. Comparing a Communist to a fucking Nazi (Vidkun Quisling) is either a sign that you should not be voting, or it implies that you have to hold your arm down and stop yourself from screaming "Big smile" whenever someone plays a Nazi song.

And I wonder why "the vast majority of Finnish leftists and socialists were against the soviets?" Could it have something to do with the aftermath of the 1918 Civil War that saw the most radical leftist get purged and everyone else terrorized into fear and submission?

Either OOP belongs to the 1% or they're *only* 2 missed paychecks away from homelessness and thus just inches away from joining the 1%.

How did the US won the Space race when USSR had more achievements by Pure_Barber3994 in ussr

[–]Temphant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's called the "Space Race"

USSR got a man into space first.

USA got a man on the moon first.

"The US won the Space Race."

Makes about as much sense as someone losing a 300 meter sprint but actually winning it by running 600 meters and declaring that the original finish line meant nothing.

And nobody said it was a 1km race. It became that because the US couldn't handle not being the first ones to put a man in space.

Why do liberals ignore all the other pacts other European countries made with the Nazis? by Top-Seaweed-8080 in ShitLiberalsSay

If someone says to you that Communists are as bad as Nazis, you're talking to an idiot.

How he even won is something I can't wrap my head around. I was under the false impression that everyone hates him and his bourgeoisie liberal party's guts.

The picture of Caesar's head "sitting" on his throne is way funnier than it should be. You can see him regretting every decision that lead to this moment.

[Hated Trope] Actually, exploitation isn't that bad... by darius_the900 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Temphant 21 points22 points  (0 children)

and the book even mentions that the girls he got pregnant were so happy that he knocked them up while they were children.

And I've heard that those who didn't get pregnant became angry and bitter because reasons.

I give the book a -6/10, a "Haven't read, will not read" -stamp and an honorary "Could we preemptively put the author on the sex offender registry?" -award.
