#and he was racist in the reply

[thetimelordbatgirl]

Shout out to Stef Coburn who in his quest to make it hard to watch An Unearthly Child outside of DVDs and sailing the high seas, ended up getting his racism against the fifteenth doctor dug up by people who found how holy shit he's acting.

I'm sure someone mentioned this before but it feels like Raxy-manbaby's rhetoric is borderline segregationist. Like he's like "dragons should never interact with humans, this is a humans only zone and if they do, they will be prosecuted and murdered even if humans come to their area". And the whole "refuse to humble themselves" reads off as "refuse to acknowledge human supremacy". It's flat out racist, and the only reason people are not noticing it or at worst giving him a pass is because it's fiction.

I don't have my redshit folder at hand right now, but someone jokingly replied to someone on the 3h sub some time ago (2 years? 3 years? You lose the meaning of time in this fandom) something like "separate but equals? It sure wasn't racist as hell."

Worry not, people notice it and fwiw, it's one of the reasons why I'm so annoyed at the Aeneid - because of its status : it was meant to be both a fic and supposed to be a meta commentary of the game, and many people swallowed it up complete with the nonsense that Billy was never biracial (or whatever Sitri was) or worse, they "become human again" as if having Nabatean blood/soul is something you can wash as easily as a hairdye.

I guess when you have to twist yourself in pretzels to pretend Supreme Leader going "you are a nabatean you cannot rule over humans" isn't pulling the race cardn, the only pretzel you end up with is one that is rancid and has been chewed by all kinds of unsavory people and we end up back to square 1 "separate but totes equal i'm telling you so please bow your head otherwise you defy me and you're going to fall on my axe".

Fanfic is fanfic, and meta is meta, they're two different things !

Imo the conflation always boils down to the same set of pixels : granted, I earlier joked about how FE16 might have been a social experiment, if you simp very hard after a waifu, will you follow that waifu to the depths of hell, or will your common sense inform you that this waifu might be, uh, titillating material but nothing more?

The rise of disturbing discourse on the net though (remember the "he's mentally ill he shouldn't have babies?" or, in general, the sheer fact that someone had to remind people that segregation was racist as hell, or whatever the hell is going on in that server) is, tbf, sort of worrisome anon and unlike the trolls of the old days, the "maybe imperialism is good sometimes" people seem serious in their views so while it's not my job to tell them to touch grass and turn off their computer, I prefer to laugh at the sheer idiocy.

I mean, nothing's as funny as someone very seriously writing a wall of text to explain "how BaD feudalism is" under a shitpost lol

i saw someone say they were hoping noah would apologize and it's just kinda fascinating to me...if he thought zionism was sexy on monday (or i guess on sunday probably and for many days and weeks before that) why would he suddenly think it's an awful ideology on friday?

Just gonna stop telling my dad about my worries and problems bc his answer is always just "stop worrying about things you can't do anything about" and then my worry is like, my illness getting worse from catching covid 5 times a year bc we live in a society that just doesn't fucking care that we're still actively living with a plague

What are your top 5 Strawmitri arguments?

Mine would be, in no particular order:

Dimitri cares about the present, therefore he doesn't care at all about the future and would be a terrible leader because of it

He's so mentally ill he can never hope to recover, and as such Edelgard did him a favor by killing him in CF

He's more at fault for the war than Edelgard because he fought back after she attacked first and unprovoked, instead of letting her take Faerghus without a fight

The entire point of Dimitri's character and of AM in general is how royalty can get away with commiting crimes commoners would be executed for, since Fleche gets killed for trying to take revenge on him but he survives in spite of all the people he killed when he was at his most unhinged

Dimitri's hatred of Edelgard is rooted in his love for her back when they were kids, which is why him killing her in AM by stabbing her with his phallic-shaped lance is supposed to be symbolic of his desire to fuck her

Oh gods, I remember I wanted to make a "redshit takes awards" once upon a time, but then I gave up lol

I haven't browsed that much about Dimitri nor given too much thought about the discourse surrounding him because laughing at the Rhea takes took way too much time, but I think I really laughed at the :

Dimitri is racist because he cuts Claude when Claude is being an asshole about the Abyss

Even if I can't forgot the

Defensive invasion

Dimitri represents toxic masculinity (the guy who has traditional "feminine" coded hobbies like sewing, who cries, who blushes calling his friends by their first names, whose biggest default and the one that leads him to his downfall is his empathy, etc etc)

Dimitri stole Felix and Annette's dads :(

dimitri is a religious extremist because he shelters Rhea who is also a religious extremist. source : trust me bro I know i have a degree in advanced bullshit

the State of Quo - as Dimitri reforms his country like his dad wanted to do but never got the chance because his head rolled from his shoulders for some reason - this one was parroted in Nopes because how dare he want a progressive change rather than a radical one !!

and last but not the least, and it's less about Dimitri than about the poor redshiter who said something like "women love dimitri because they are controled by their ovaries and they prefer a violent man who would abuse them rather than real people like me :("

Oh and also, as a french person so far removed from american politics, the "Dimitri is a centrist" take always made me laugh (Dimitri chez Bayrou?)

From your takes though, I'd rank them like this :

peepee weapon thus stabbing Supreme Leader means he wanted to fuck her and this is why he goes "cray-cray" because she didn't reciprocate his affections (and totes not because he believes she killed his father, their mother, his friends and actually starts a war slaughtering thousands of randoms)

"too cray-cray to live"

caring about the present sucks because you don't care about the future (which is totally not built on the people living in the present!)

nobles bad because they kill commoners who try to kill them :(

victim blaming (this one is so mainstream!)

[nanjokei]

this guy is a weirdo and most recently a z*onist, heads up

[xnoel]

TW: Rape mention, victim blaming, slut shaming (a 15-16 year old), homophobia, sexualizing women.

Since some people are confused about why Build apologized on Instagram and why BOC announced that he's temporarily suspending his activities (and I'm fucking tired of everyone saying "Build only said one shitty thing 8 years ago, he was just 20 years old") I'm making a post about the many fucked up things he's written on his social media accounts throughout the years (he was 20-26 years old when he wrote the them), or at least the ones that people have found.

I swear like once a week some name I've never seen before trends on Twitter and when I click on the trend, I discover yet another annoying comedian/podcaster/youtuber who has the literal worst fans on the planet earth.

like how many times will we be subjected to

"who's [x]?" "a shitty edgelord who makes racist/sexist/queerphobic content." (eighty blue-checks bust through a wall) "AND THAT'S WHY HE'S GREAT!!!"

genuinely, where the fuck are these people even coming from? I've never heard of any of these people in my life but they apparently all have legions of brain-dead fans who will go full

at the drop of a hat

[look-at-the-stars-tonight]

All this hate for show Annabeth is getting really fucking annoying
