@HaileyGermndpd @ElleeDraws @wispiicoatl He apologized to Blitz, on multiple different occasions, and sacrificed many things for him.

Also, what do you mean by "deserves?" Why should people have to pay for their mistakes and crimes with suffering? That, to me, seems like an awfully cruel outlook on life.

@jasmineteangel @wispiicoatl - than Peter III, just because the system that she greatly profited from also harmed her in many ways?

[Florian @braindeadpriest]

@jasmineteangel @wispiicoatl - member of the Russian ruling class. She, personally, owned half a million serfs! She could've abandoned that position at any time, renouncing her titles and possessions, but she didn't. Would it make any sense, then, to say that she was less of a member of the aristocracy -

@haruhihiphop Ah, we share two favorites! That's so cool!

This post actually made me check out this website's scores for my other top films, and, apparently, these guys think that The Rocky Horror Picture Show is "based." Funnily enough, Eisenstein's Strike is not even in their database.

@HaileyGermndpd @ElleeDraws @wispiicoatl Stolas does face lasting consequences for his acts, though. He was stabbed and almost murdered, and suffers from PTSD due to the fact. He's spent months being spat at, insulted, and attacked by imps after being stripped of his titles, to the point of becoming numb to it all.

@HaileyGermndpd @ElleeDraws @wispiicoatl I agree that these are serious issues, of course. But I think that Helluva Boss handles them quite well. It isn't a groundbreaking show in those regards, but it does, in my opinion, a nice enough job.

[Florian @braindeadpriest]

@HaileyGermndpd @wispiicoatl You don't have to apologize! It's all good.

@Lovelory1 @wispiicoatl - her husband. By physically abusing her employees. By forcefully preventing Octavia from interacting with Stolas, despite their mutual wishes. By publicly humiliating her partner.

Stolas, meanwhile, on multiple different occasions, utilizes his power in order to help others.

[Florian @braindeadpriest]

@Lovelory1 @wispiicoatl - authority over her servants. She, as far as we can tell, has her daughter under her jurisdiction. And she is in posession of social capital. To deny any of that would be to deny her agency.

And yet, how does Stella wield these privileges? By using her cash to try and kill -

[Florian @braindeadpriest]

@ElleeDraws @HaileyGermndpd @wispiicoatl - an assessment is not backed by textual evidence.

[Florian @braindeadpriest]

@ElleeDraws @HaileyGermndpd @wispiicoatl Sure, you could say that that's a trait they share.

But I never claimed that these two characters have nothing in common. I replied to a comment saying that Andrealphus and Vassago are just as bad as one another "when it comes to racism and classism" by pointing out that such -

[Florian @braindeadpriest]

@HaileyGermndpd @wispiicoatl Sure, I suppose. I was hoping that you'd elaborate on that, but it's fine if you don't want to. Have a nice day regardless!

[Florian @braindeadpriest]

@bonsoirdude @Artsometime @wispiicoatl Compelling!

Anyhow, try and find it within you to change your attitude towards sexual minorities. This hate that you so casually spew harms not only others, but yourself, too. It makes you less human, little by little. You don't have to do that.

[Florian @braindeadpriest]

@nitroplast @wispiicoatl If I may: how would you define the term "classism?" I am inclined to agree with your statement, mind you, but I have many, many issues with the usage of that word as an analytical tool, so I think that, for the sake of this conversation, I'd rather cast it aside, if possible.
