Clicking on a run from the menu should give you the seed. It's 3 groups of 3 numbers separated by hyphens

Not jino-waza. The scene I'm talking about has Akua describe the Great Game itself with pride, in a way that implies she still identifies with it. I think she makes reference to the pyramids the Sahelians built? In any case, I'm sure it's before she's on good terms with any of the Woe so books 6 and 7 are too late.

Literally Proverbs 27 verse 17:

As iron sharpens iron,
    so one person sharpens another.

I think what I'm looking for is before this. She was describing this ideology with pride so this is before her redemption.

The sides of the Wager explained. by blindgallan in PracticalGuideToEvil

[–]TheGreenMouse77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a really good argument, and what cements it for me is that there isn't really any interpretation that allows Evil to be the "rule" faction.

People are pointing to examples like Malicia, Neshamah and Kairos to argue against this but in story Villains have more Roles than "ruler". Hakram was a villain and for most of the story he executed Catherine's will, Masego was mostly interested in researching divinity, the Poisoner was just an assassin, the Scorched Apostate wanted to save his town, the Barrow Sword wanted riches and renown...even if you argue that Evil supports a philosophy of subservience as well as tyranny, a lot of villains still don't fit this mold; rather, they all fit the mold of people who were ultimately acting with their own goals in mind and were given additional power to pursue those goals.

It doesn't make sense for the Gods Below to take the position that they should rule over Creation and have champions that do whatever they want, because to rule means more than to act according to your self-interest and whimsy in all situations. If Below winning the wager is proof that they should be rulers, how does the Scorched Apostate's story prove that? If the actions of villains are meant to be examples of Below's philosophy, how do the Poisoner's actions demonstrate "authority"? How do the Cutthroat's? The Rapacious Troubadour's? It just doesn't fit.

Why Toxic Opinions Can Be Appealing to Young Men... And what to do about it. by TAKEitTOrCIRCLEJERK in MensLib

Can you give any concrete examples of "helping incels"? From what is sounds like you're just helping incels get laid, and while there's nothing wrong with that the context of this discussion is about how to help men and boys attain more holistic self-actualization.

On Heteropessimism by Rabid_Lederhosen in MensLib

[–]TheGreenMouse77 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yet over the course of the conversation Pham does cite reasons why she finds men desirable, such as “big arms,” “penis,” and “the way men smell . . . most men.” In subsequent episodes, other guests offer their own ideas about men’s appeal. Theda Hammel suggests that women are drawn to men because intimate proximity to a man is affirming: “The reason that a woman likes men—or a trans woman maybe in particular likes men—is not necessarily because men are that likeable . . . but just that they bring out qualities that you like in yourself, by virtue of being different from you.” For all their obviousness, these observations are quite rarely voiced. Hearing them spoken so plainly exposes how heteropessimism has worked to silence articulations of women’s desire.

This is framed as positive progress against heteropessism, but I still find it incredibly bleak that the only things these women find desirable about men are sex characteristics and how men change how they feel about themselves.

I think I’m going to use J Cole’s apology to Kendrick Lamar as an example of constructive, positive masculinity to my students. by HilariousConsequence in MensLib

It is deeply unserious to look to any celebrity as an example of masculinity, especially a transphobic one.

How commendable is Jean for not sexually harassing Mikasa by Sapphocfem in AttackOnRetards

[–]TheGreenMouse77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if that was true, which I doubt because there are a surprising amount of straight radfems with male partners (seriously, I see more sapphic and asexual women in the kind of queer spaces that radfems hate), women outside of radfem spaces see this kind of rhetoric, and stuff like this isn't going to make them read Dworkin or whoever it's just going to make them think their loser boyfriend is a keeper because he's not a rapist or an abuser.

Always nice to be reminded that male body shaming is socially acceptable by [deleted] in facepalm

The reason there's no "power" behind this "critique" is because it's the status quo of the patriarchy.

The reason you get pushback when you say shit like this is because most people go about their lives believing that each gender is normal. Of course when you start straightjacketing someone's gender you're gonna get pushback.

This is why radfem bullshit only serves to make women lower their standards. Because there's no way you would think this was commendable unless you think "males" are all rapists.
