I think all decent people have a sense of what wrong or right is but not all of us admit to seeing it 🤔.

Saccharina's plan to destroy the Bulbian Church and drive it from Candia and eventually all the land sounds good until you think about it for more than 2 seconds lol. Sure, the church is bullshit and corrupt, but there are plenty of regular people in the land and other lands who are believers in the Bulb that are good people who are against what the church leadership is doing. It's easier to think of them all as one united front but it's just not accurate and it's morally and intellectually lazy. You can't just unilaterally declare an entire worship illegal and have a crusade against it or unfortunately you are now also the bad guys. Bad guys who are punishing innocent people. And a lot of said innocent people are on your side and want to help you. So not only is it cruel it's also strategically idiotic. Sure, they believe in something that you find ridiculous, but all your other values are aligned. Don't throw out the baby with the bathwater. (That's also basically my stance in real life too, not a fan of religion but you can't make it illegal, that would be super evil and end very badly lol. People need to make their own minds up of their own free will).

I'm glad they grabbed those letters from that command tent with all the bishops and priests from both Candia and other Lands very politely going... "uuuuuuuh what the fuck are you doing? This is terrible, we are all sad. Everyone is against this crusade, please stop" To the Pontifex. I assume Brennan will make them think about it at some point considering he's Mister. Moral Philosophy but right now they're all caught up in revenge mode. Also the smartest most politically minded party member is dead so... that's inconvenient lol. I think I caught Caramelinda shooting a glance about this, so I think she's got some thoughts, but she's also smart enough to regroup and talk to the others first rather than just blurt it out, especially when it seems like the people she loves are agreeing with this terrible plan. They just left the Temple of the Spinning Star to go raid the Sugar Plum Faries' Temple, so I think this conversation is halted for the time being.

What if the Devourer didn’t make Garmadon evil but instead messed with his frontal lobe?

In humans the frontal lobe is responsible for impulse control and the ability to tell right from wrong

While we know Garmadon isn’t human his biological make up is similar enough to reproduce with humans so we can safely make the assumption with this being about legos that he can have a frontal lobe

So let’s say the devourers venom doesn’t actually make you evil

But it’s instead neurotoxin

And thanks to Garmadon’s genes he was a able to survive it but it caused brain damage

He no longer had a good grasp on what was right and wrong and when he could tell it was hard to fight the impulse to do the wrong thing (especially because the things he did often had short term reward so it immediately reinforced bad habits)

As far as we are aware Garmadon is the only person to have been bitten/survived being bitten by the great devourer

So we don’t have any comparable data

The FSM went oh no my baby isn’t naturally evil this thing made him evil because the fsm doesn’t know anything about brains

He couldn’t understand that these were Garmadon’s thoughts and choices and while yes Garmadon wasn’t naturally evil, he wasn’t fully capable of trying to be good

And to his credit he did try once he had something/ or rather someone that he didn’t want affected by his decisions

This also explains why is the way he is in sons of Garmadon on

Lloyd was able to heal his brain when he casted out the devourer venom but when Harumi summoned him he had been actively dead, meaning that healed portion would’ve decayed and then some which is why he was so unhinged

Garmadon was never evil he just had brain damage

Right and Wrong

Had a bad dream Woke up and a good thing happened Had to ask What’s going on Do I really know What is good What is bad I won’t ask Because I know you You’ll make it your task To tell me so What you don’t know That’s how it go Everybody thinks they know But they don’t know Tired of hearing it Got to go The right and wrong It’s a song Everybody gets wrong Cause they all just sing along and never ask What is wrong They never know That’s how it go So I ask What is right and what is wrong Do I really know

If your mind is vexed and troubled by the immorality in this world, remember this..

I’m sure this goes against everything you’ve been taught, but right and wrong do exist. Just because you don’t know what the right answer is—maybe there’s even no way you could know what the right answer is—doesn’t make your answer right, or even okay. It’s much simpler than that. It’s just plain wrong.

Nobara being a menace

[tirsynni]

It’s amazing how people went from “Let men wear dresses! Clothes don’t have a gender!” to “If a man wants to wear a dress, clearly a feminine article of clothing, then I know for a fact that man is actually a closeted transwoman.”

Can clothes help people better understand their thoughts on their gender identity? Yes. Should others merrily shove others into boxes based on conservative gender norms? Absolutely not.

Sometimes, a guy wants to wear colorful nail polish and pretty dresses. Sometimes, that person looks in the mirror and realizes that their choice in appearance clarifies some things regarding their gender, and sometimes, those choices in personal appearance are steps along a path. Hell, sometimes a transman wants to wear dresses and nail polish. It doesn’t mean that they’re lying about their gender identity: it just means he wants to wear pretty nail polish and a dress. It’s different for everyone.

Can we please stop going so “woke” that we circle right back to strict conservatism? A person’s choice of appearance should be based on their personal expression. It shouldn’t be used as a tool to shove people into carefully defined, rigid boxes.
