  • Whos that pokemon!It's Pikachu!It's Pichuka!FUCK!

  • Because they get their invulnerability from rapid regeneration.

    Their flesh still burns, their bones still break, but they heal quickly, just to be burned and broken again.

  • But then so will also talk like that, making it indistinguishable once again

  • "use" might be a stretch.

    I have a mastodon account I check occasionallyI have a pixelfed account I use rarelyAnd a loops account I think I logged into once

  • The problem of manufacturing weapons would be significantly less controversial of LM (for ex) had even a few scruples.

    Defending yourself is fine. Making tools to defend yourself is fineMaking tools for people to defend themselves is fine

    Making and selling those tools for use in attacking is not fine.Profiteering from harm is not fine.\

  • Don't say that he's hypocriticalSay rather that he's apolitical

  • That number is shrinking alarmingly fast

  • The entire premise seems too preachy for me. They really kinda beat you over the head with it. And are usually kinda victim blamey, from the bit I've learned beyond the one episode I watched.

  • I think history is full of rulers who were hated by their people, but were deposed by their peers for selfish reasons, rather than by uprising.

    But there is lots of wiggle room in that argument, I admit. My point was more of a technical one than a practical one.

    I think that a rigid class/caste system can probably work purely on jealousy rather than on propaganda, but this isn't based on real world example.

  • Likely true by example, but not by definition.

    Overthrowing power may be hopeless, but propaganda may still be used simply to prevent the masses from causing slight discomfort to the people in power.

    Propaganda is a tool, not a last resort, of the powerful.

  • I did like that style of dialogue, at the time, so idk if that was the problem for me.

    It's been a long long time since I saw it, so I don't remember details only general impressions:I remember thinking that every characters weren't really differentiated. They were all just kinda amorphous, until an opportunity for their single defining trait had a change to come out for a bit.

  • I only watched an episode or two. I don't remember what order.

  • I really wanted to like Firefly, but the characters felt too silly and two dimensional.
