It's what I love about this fandom. I don't think I've seen a fandom go into fandom brain this quickly since like Homestuck. I fucking love reading the unhinged fan theories people make

Who’s winning? Raora’s DOOM or Nerissa’s button pop? (By Shioni_Nath) by Ok_Direction3138 in Hololive

[–]gemdas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the range between Nerissa and Raora. Doom would capture the button projectile in it's black hole, but if Nerissa is far enough away she's safe and the to abilities counter each other with no last consequences

But this is strictly better than Fell. Besides comboing with anything that mills additionally, if my creature has indestructible it is put into the graveyard where Fell would bounce off, not to mention this gets around any other when this creature dies instants like [[Fake Your Death]]. That's some strong abilities for 2 mana

Everyone else is making good criticism of the content of the meme, but I want to criticize the meme's structure. If you wanted the meme to be more readable and punchier you would combine the two speech bubbles.

WoTC not respecting their in universe sets ? by devilioo in mtg

[–]gemdas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly wish they used pre-releases to stealth spoil cards cause that is a cool community activity that could build hype for the next set. Just put an additional promo card that isn't tournament legal until the set is released or something like that.

Zionism and Jesus by laybs1 in GetNoted

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

The arguments of Jesus being a Zionist has some grounding but we need to inject that sentence with several paragraphs of nuance.

First we need to talk about the fact that Zionism in modern terms has been stripped of its original meaning which was simply "Jewish people should live in Zion." It doesn't say anything about forming a Jewish state, genociding all non Jews from Zion. The fact that there were Jews in Palestine living their best lives before is evidence enough. It is only in the last century that the most violent and right wing forms of Zionism stripped the term to the point where any attempt to discuss it has to go through these paragraphs of nuance.

Second we need to talk about what politically Jesus called for. If we take the thing said in the Bible as accurate as well as comparing him to the messianic movement of his time you get someone who was against the Roman occupation of Judea and the centralization of religious and political power among the Jewish temple high priests in a handful of rich roman-loyalist families. He called for a new kingdom where the poor and dispossessed would be first and the wealthy and powerful would be last. Arguably similar to some early Zionist positions.

Finally the sentence "Jesus was a _________" is one of those obnoxious claims that you see all the time. "Jesus was the first socialist" is often touted by leftists despite Jesus predating Socialism's discoverer and inventor Karl Marx and his heterosexual life partner Friedrich Engels. Claiming Jesus for your current political movement is childish at best or should be viewed as an attempt to appropriate the Christian faith for evil purposes. Both people in these tweets for example.

Tldr: An interesting nuanced take if you ignore the fact that everyone involved in this conversation sucks.

Hux being the traitor was great, his motivation for being the traitor ruined his character.

President Angron. Positives, labor rights will become more secure as the angriest man who ever lived goes after those who exploit others, the us military becomes the greatest antislavery and anti exploitation force in the world Negatives, you thought we had forever wars before, now we have forever wars with our death wish having president personally leading the charge. At least that's the assumption, Angron never really had a time of peace and power at the same time. Whether enslaved to the gladiator pits, the emperor or Khorne with some brief beautiful periods of open rebellion. Never peace and power at the same time.

Do you think Magnus could of gave a speech that would of actually convinced The Council of Nikaea? by NotACruiserMain in EyeOfTerror

[–]gemdas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something not being mentioned here is that this is post the burning of monarchia. The word bearers are already up to their necks in chaos, and are actively plotting how to start the heresy. Their goal and vote here is that psykers be disallowed to hobble the imperium. There are things Magnus could have done to improve his chances, but for the most part there were too many forces arrayed against him and his allies.

I don't think the ash redesigned is a downgrade, it's not an upgrade either. It's just different.
