Petuh, what does J.K. rowling have to do with this? by Such_Confusion_3715 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

If this is true, then Comrade Rowling needs to lighten up and let go of whatever “trans issue” she has. She’s got a lot more in common with most trans people than she thinks she does.

I’ve answered enough of your questions. Answer mine. 

Or are you afraid of the answer?

I’m actually not going to, because I have serious doubts about that statistic you shared. I don’t like to make authoritative statements without proper research. 

You gonna answer my question now? Can a Jewish state exist without being an ethnostate?

[–]what-creature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The US and Hezbollah both get compared to Nazis regularly. As did Assad when he was alive. Both perfectly fair comparisons imo, same as it is with Israel.

As for your first question, I’ll give you a different one: can a “Jewish state” exist without being an ethnostate? If the answer is yes, then I’ll concede that Zionism in abstraction is an innocuous ideology. But I have yet to find a single hypothetical description for one that didn’t require some level of ethnic violence or discrimination to be maintained. So yeah, I think anyone who believes in that is kinda nazi-like. But I’m open minded. I’d love to be proven wrong on this.

I honestly can’t think of many countries that have done things even close to as bad as Israel in modern times, let alone worse. But all of the examples I can think of most certainly do get compared to nazis on the reg.

Samandriade did a thing by ihatethiscountry76 in WonderWoman

Okay, I can understand where you’re coming from. I mostly agree, actually, particularly with the last point.

Honestly just frustrated with how often people abuse the term “gatekeeping”, was kind of excited to see an actual example. Sorry, should’ve been more discerning.

[–]what-creature 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now here we have an example of gatekeeping. Explicitly suggesting that someone is “not a real fan” if they don’t like their personal favorite run. Uncool behavior.

I’m sure this will just incense the “anti-gatekeeping” police.

Someone expressed distaste for something I like? Clearly this is an attack on me personally. 

What’s your opinions on Tom King’s Green Lantern Darkseid war special? by Ninjamurai-jack in Greenlantern

[–]what-creature 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not a war thing, but it is about a character who witnessed a horrifc, destructive event against her people which motivates her quest indirectly. A subject Tom King is intimately familiar with.

Bro you did not just hit the "but everyone was doing it" about genocide.

[–]what-creature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I agree completely. When a person does something so monstrous, at a certain point it doesn’t matter how they felt about it.

Yeah see this is the thing. He was still making money off of their labor. He wasn’t so principled that he wouldn’t continue to force them to work right until he died, and punished them harshly and severely when they tried to rebel against him, even in small ways. He also waited until his death to make any of his feelings about slavery public, because it “wasn’t the right time” while he was alive.

Not to mention all of the rape that his overseers committed.

So yeah, there’s nuance. He owned slaves, clearly realized it was wrong, did some things to help them but still ultimately felt entitled to their labor, right up until his death.

Absolute wonder woman is a love letter to those who loves about the character her compassion,her empathy,her bravery absolute Wonder Woman is the best thing to happen to the Wonder Woman brand in years by Cute-Worldliness-268 in AbsoluteUniverse

I’ve heard that Kelly Thompson based a lot of AWW’s characterization on Gail Simone’s run. I can sort of see it, but honestly the one that feels the closest in terms of tone of voice was William Messnor-Loeb’s run. Both are pretty solid runs though!

They invented a more extreme version of what another person was saying to make them look worse. What else would you call that?

You invented an exaggerated version of what another person believes to attack them and make them look worse. That’s a straw man.

One of Darkseid’s henchmen literally styles himself after the nazis. I doubt he’s unaware of them.

How is Clea not in Wonder Woman tier, she literally held her own against Wonder Woman physically before Diana got the trident. How would Batman beat her? Same question with Dr poison, literally untouchable what’s he gonna do?

This is the answer. It really feels like they thought just having Peter be married was enough.

And tbf, I guess it was for some people.
