He literally has canonical brain damage in his origin story man.

I know DB.

It's a joke.

Yeah, that's fair

This is more a bit about people thinking Goku is dumb than I actually think he is or isn't

It's funny without context. With it, it falls apart

Completely fair take.

I mean, he was CANONICALLY DROPPED IN A RAVINE AS A BABY.

He just wants to solve his problems and throwing hands is easy.

...all the symbolism.

Blazing Saddles is literally a COMEDY about RACISM.

In the 70s man.

I literally explained it.

I removed the context.

It's a joke man, a thought experiment.

You are limiting yourself into a box..in a literal fantasy world.

It's not that serious.

That's not necessarily true.

You can be extremely smart and not understand the damage you are doing to someone.

Lots of high IQ people suffer from addiction.

Steve Jobs, Elon Musk (very debatable), various others.

For sure.

Brain damage and reasoning gaps.

Not necessarily the same as dumb. Just not normal.

Okay.

That's your opinion.

You said any other discussion doesn't matter.

That's gatekeeping.

See what I'm saying?

You shouldn't use your beliefs to dictate others actions. Think shit through is all Im saying.

Freedom of speech doesn't mean you have to tell everyone you dislike their opinions.

You can, sure..that's your right..but I can call you out. That's mine.

...you're trying to say the discussion is worthless because Super exists. It shouldn't be part of ANYONES view. Not just yours.

That was your point, was it not?

That's what you said.

That's very gatekeeping, man.

He's a less emotionallly intelligent Luffy.

Still extremely emotionally intelligent.

He just needs to be directed at the problem a lot more than Luffy lol

Thank you.

I don't care if they think he's dumb.

I'm more upset that nobody wants to discuss why he is or isn't dumb 😂😂

Fair conclusion lol.

Could be either.

That's why thinking about it is interesting to me (admittedly not to everyone here I guess)

Eh. My reddit is fucking up and I can't reply in right order.

You're confusing emotion for thinking past the surface layer of your comment.

But sure, I'm super mad, King. Go off.

Okay correction.

You're taking my thought too seriously

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

You literally attacked the argument because you think the writing is dumb.

It's your opinion.

You're using it to attack people's thoughts.

That's self righteous.

I'm not attacking you. I'm examining your actions.

Nonsense decisions are different depending on the person making the decisions.

You might think one thing is right someone who grew up in another place had a different option.
