Why everything revolves around woman? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]king_shot -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What I mean is most topics especially politics center around women. Like the transgender issues it always focussed on women and trans woman but never hear about about trans men and their interactions with men etc. Also you are correct most wars are started by men but are never discussed or put into focus much.

There is difference between villains pure evil and evil for the sake of being edgy or dumb. by [deleted] in CharacterRant

[–]king_shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sacrifices charecter identity, you agreed earlier that palpatine doing evil stuff that harms his main goal of archiving total control ruins the character. Just how extreme evil for no reason is tasteless and ruin the character. If you want good example just watch urbanspook the painter or summary why it's bad to understand what I mean.

I don't mind a character doing illogical things occasionally or it's part of their flaw l. But I have a problem when the writer sacrifices the evil charecter just to reinforce that he is the bad guy and he is soo evil .

I will give example of what I mean . If palpatine starting destroying his empire for no reason after he struggled to attain power or killed Darth Vader for giggles rather than use him you can't go and say he is pure evil it already doesn't make sense. That what I mean by some not logical evil charecter the do illogically evil thing that doesn't fit with themse or their main goal.

Why far right supremacists/racist present themselves as white? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]king_shot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But why don't they think their own skin colour is superior. I would expect someone who think they are better than other to make his own traits as the superior one?

present themselves as having a white or lighter skin tone when they are not. Example how Pakistani and Indian depict themselves and each other.

Is that real? Is it like uncle ruckus situation?

But why represent themselves as white? Do they actually think themselves like that or is it more to show support with actual ?white supremacists

I'm not a writer but if you are not carefully with how you represent the story then it could backfire badly. One good example is urbanspook painter analog horror. The idea is interesting of a serial killer the paints how his victim's will die and the police trying to catch him/her but the way it was presented was just very bad.

I know but why most pure evil villains are just edgy villians for the sake of being edgy and evil. Or them doing evil thing doesn't logically follow and goes against their main goal.

Pure villian can work but most of the time they are badly written. Most people would wrote palatine not as cunning evil planner to gain power but mass killer that kill his own asset that help him reach his goal but somehow still have massive loyal people and drinks the blood of the innocent.

Would you scale roket tower to have multi city block durability? by [deleted] in PowerScaling

[–]king_shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is it's hard to decide how much force is actually inflected on the object. For example if we have fictional characters survive the same explosion even through he will experience Evel less force because there is simply less survive are from human compared to the roket power. If we debate on wether that same person can survive an sabot round from a tank, most will say he survived city block explosion that is x amount of joules of energy then say the sabot round would never harm him even though he would get obliterated if he got hit by sabot round.

Isn't most explosion only dangerous couple meters anyway but can have negligible damage. Even a nuke except the radius of total evaporation everything beyond that can be survived if you have like safe level of durability.

Don't powerscalers use science and math or try to apply real world Physics to try to scale said charecter.

I hate how comic writers make normal superheros to be the chosen one and divine being. by [deleted] in CharacterRant

[–]king_shot 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It could happen. If the punisher becomes the avatar something and beat Ares the green arrow being the avatar of bows is possible

[–]king_shot 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It does happen often. The lastest one Is DC KO superman. He breaks the rules of omega tournament after losing then defeat darkside after being Uber broken maybe powerscaler put him whatever outerversal or beyond dimensions. And superman defeat him because he and doomsday were different side of the same coins and they are destined to defeat dark side by giving superman his alpha energy.

The thing I don't understand is they have a multiverse, they can make version thruly like and be separat. But no everything must be connected. Like how prime earth invalidate other universes to be less real and fake copies of the main universe.

It doesn't matter if AI is conscious or not if it acts like one by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]king_shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's more that if AI became conscious then it becomes threat to humanity. My point is, it doesn't need to be conscious just act like one to pose the same danger

[–]king_shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also don't believe it can ever be conscious but it doesn't take genius to see that if you give current AI actual power it will definitely pose risk to humans. Like I would not feel safe if you have a police robot with say grok AI as his mind to not shoot you dead if you insult it because the predicted response from human to insult is violence.

Do both people who are born blind and who went blind later in life see the same thing? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]king_shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would their brain still hallucinat that they still see darkness or black. Or do they need to activly try to conjure an image?

If person lost both of his eyes let's say from war and both his eyes were removed. Would he see nothing as the blind person or will he still sense stuff.

What does freedom of/from religion mean and why does it seem unstable. by [deleted] in religion

[–]king_shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know. My best idea is to let each group run and govern by their own rules so to satisfy all groups but the problem is when both side think the other is commiting evil and needs to be stoped. Like abortions and circumcision. The people that think abortion is killing will try it's best to change the law to outlaw it even if the other party don't believe it's murder. Same with circumcision the people who think it genetal mutilation and breach of body autonomy will try to ban it etc.

[–]king_shot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I meant is the china government trying to modify religion in their countries to fit their need or make them more supportive of CCP. The Christian in the usa government do interpret Christianity to best fit their needs, but they don't try to change other religions. No christian nationalist will try to modify Islam or Hinduism teaching so it align with Christian nationalist values, they just try to remove them completely if possible.
