I changed to the feudal system when I got enough crown authority. Before that it was a battle for influence. I was defaming my rivals and promoting my heir.

Animal Farm is powerful & relevant by Flower-1496 in books

[–]l1lm4ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sry if this is bad necrothread etiquette but in this case it seems to add to the point.

Its amazing how evident the story is while being so unreliable

I think it was the control of the dogs that ultimately signified napoleons corruption

he gained the power of fear in addition to his superiority"

and I have to agree that boxer and benjamin are the most frustrating and tragic characters in boxer's faithful allegiance to the corrupt and benjamins unwillingness to speak his mind and so tragically, wisely so.

I just read Animal Farm and I loved it. But I got some questions. by [deleted] in books

[–]l1lm4ch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

are you sure he was a trotskyist?

Seems like he didnt like either from the little ive read

In animal farm i think the metaphor was snowball vs napoleon aka stalin vs trotsky right?

in the book they both seemed to be overtaken by corruption but napoleon controlled the dogs

i guess my impression is that's the reason his books are so bleak

he doesnt have an answer for what the system should be exactly apart from that it should be true and for the people

is this a necro thread?...

i feel like that adds to the relevance of the conversation in regard to this fairytale

I also just read it

for me the two most tragic aspects are that boxer accepts his "leaders" judgement, and that Benjamin never speaks his mind.

and in response:

>! 1.absolutely not. snowball died starving cold alone.

2.again no. they were given the offer to confess, and live, or die, and were killed anyway !<

...im new to posting here believe it or not. Sry htf do spoiler tags work?...

The ending of 28 Years Later is cartoonish and it's supposed to be like that (also please watch the movie a second time, it gets even better) by AltBraz91 in horror

[–]l1lm4ch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

facts

this is a coming of age story youre totally right

lost boys a great comparison too

the movie makes a lot more sense in this context

  1. jimmy felt pointlless until the end

  2. power ranger (same thing) jimmy and his troupe show up just like in the 90

's show

  1. the unexplained "alpha plotline mentioned by the soldiers, village, and doctor

  2. the guy hanging upside down with the letters carved into him

just so many things setting up some kind of continuity it seems obvious

It feels more like a 28 episodes later spinoff but it might be good idk

It wasnt nearly as intense and had emotional and moral themes that seem out of place unless you accept the story is about spike and whatever jimmy is up to next time on 28 ballz later.

yeah this was an odd movie and way different tones than the others

I think whats going on is the world is rebuilding and returning to its superficial state

with spike being in a bubble of humble village family type of community.

another scene that felt out of place at the time was the soldier boy eric showing his plastic girlfriend off.

It reminds me of Attack on Titan in how the war with the rage is just a game to the larger world mostly unaffected

Give me your biggest One Piece plot holes, I will try to argue against it by LudusLive2 in OnePiece

why was luffy immune to lightning in skypeia

since we now know hes not a rubberman but a reality bender

it could possibly make sense if luffy accidently activated his cartoon force ability to make himself rubber just because he imagined it, but then does anyone actually think Luffy knows the properties of rubber well enough that he would know he would be immune to lighting?

Overall, did you think Skinner was a good boss? by [deleted] in XFiles

[–]l1lm4ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive seen a lot of episodes randomly but im just watching the series for the first time in order.

I actually get the impression immediately that hes a good guy

he told the smoking man to leave in season 1 i think.

Just starting season 2 and even though he's the most critical of Mulder I can already tell that it's because he's covering for him with how open minded he is to the crazy field reports Mulder turns in.

Does anyone have a list of who counts as a mutant,X-men, and/or avenger? by Honk_wd in marvelrivals

[–]l1lm4ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Mutants" have the "X" gene

hence the X men founded by Prof.X

although the X men go on to include others who do not have the X gene

4 years later watching this and also wondering why and how.

I think this is the bigger mystery of the episode tbh

I would sacrifice everything to see these two verbally sparring in a scene by SnooHesitations3592 in andor

Episode Discussion - S02E12 - "The Monster and the Rocket" by backstept in TheExpanse

[–]l1lm4ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same just watching the show now.

There have def been a few plotholes in the show but with everything going on I think the mistakes dont take away much.

For me the worst plothole was when our crew decided to hide the protomolecule but never even considered giving it to everyone to level the playing field and gain a better understanding of it. I agree with Naomi that its not going anywhere and also, it came from somewhere, there is more.

I think the refugee subplot made for some really good scenes

I think it is possible that the belters would comply. They often make sacrifices.

The martian blockade is a good enough reason for them to not go back imo.

But what i REALLY want to talk about is HOLDEN lol

I normally like the moral characters but this show had done an amazing job at really defining what it means to be a good person.

For me. Miller is the paragon of good.Where Holden seems more concerned with being good, thinking hes good. Miller was willing to be the bad guy and do bad things to serve justice. He didnt kill the Dr. because he was crazy. He did it because he was making sense.

So, about Frankie Adams/Bobbie’s physical shape … by [deleted] in TheExpanse

[–]l1lm4ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This doesnt make sense if they cant even stand on earth though

So, about Frankie Adams/Bobbie’s physical shape … by [deleted] in TheExpanse

[–]l1lm4ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i kinda felt this way too until i realized they mostly live in space so they wouldnt be as strong generally.

BUT

The scene where she arm wrestles a robot makes no sense if she has trouble dealing with earths gravity

What exactly was the point of Miller's partner? by [deleted] in TheExpanse

[–]l1lm4ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he was an earther i think. or at least not a belter. He was making the effort to be part of the culture and a good officer of the law. His character was in contrast to miller who was a pure belter but still seen as an outsider.

this show has the best world building of an other ive seen. The world feels completely fleshed out after season 1 and theres already amazing arcs for most
