La posture bourgeoise, c’est de ne pas comprendre que le peuple désire que les places centrales des villes soient aménagés avec de jolies statues en bronze, des fontaines qui marchent, des bancs à l’ombre d’arbres bien entretenus, et des bars où boire des coups sans être embêtés.
@VirgilsQuill "who cares it's just paint" they say as they slash a masterwork painting, "who cares it's just stone" they say as they pull down a statue, "who cares it's just paper" they say as they burn down a library. "Just let people enjoy things" the say as they dance around the flames.
Odysseus saying “our age of bronze is collapsing” was probably the stupidest line in the entire movie.
It would be like a Medieval man saying “the Middle Ages are almost over”.
Middle of what?
It’s the PRESENT to them!!!
“I fear our civilisation of Bronze… is collapsing. There are stories of People from… the Sea”
“You mean some kind of Sea… People?”
“Yes - and if they come here it will take more than just a Bronze Age… mindset to defeat them”
*Bronze Age Is Collapsing by Hans Zimmer plays*
“Our age of bronze is collapsing.”
“Oh no great Odysseus, what’s the cause?”
“Don’t be reductionist, Eurylochus. There’s no single cause. Persistent stressors on the palace economies, seismic activity, migration, disruption to the tin trade…”
@JayWitDaFitted@Dr3mecr3me@Marcos_Olvr_@PeterGr329@NodeOfWeb3 I wrote 2 paragraphs because I'm passionate about a subject and I know what I'm talking about. You on the other hand only seem interested in inserting your own racial insecurities regardless of the narrative quality issues that it creates. That's far more embarrassing to be frank
@Gigi_Gratiano Il y a des blonds en Grèce et elle est littéralement décrite comme telle dans le texte
C'est déjà beaucoup plus cohérent qu'une subsaharienne dans l'âge de bronze grec
@PeterGr329@NodeOfWeb3 2. It would already would've been clear given their "plain features" despite having 2 parents of valyrian stock. You don't need to make it comically obvious
@PeterGr329@NodeOfWeb3 1. It wasn't lmao. There were obviously multiple peoples subservient to the valyrians as they ruled an empire, but the noble and ancient valyrian families were obviously all of pure valyrian stock. Keeping blood purity and blood magic were key cultural elements of valyrian elite
@Dr3mecr3me@JayWitDaFitted@Marcos_Olvr_@PeterGr329@NodeOfWeb3 So no, the author cannot "change wherever they like at whatever point", else they destroy everything they've previously established. GRRM knows that and this is exactly why refrained from retroactively changing this key element. At this point you're just grasping at straws
@Dr3mecr3me@JayWitDaFitted@Marcos_Olvr_@PeterGr329@NodeOfWeb3 GRRM specifically said that he wished he had had that idea sooner, because now it is too late to change it. Too many things in the cannon would need to be altered to make it work, which is exactly our point. Right now, as it stands, it doesn't make any sense within the cannon
Voyons où en est le premier pays à avoir légalisé l’euthanasie très morale et pas du tout diabolique qui ne sert bien sûr qu’à abréger les souffrances des vieux à l’agonie…
Hmm ah oui des étudiantes de moins de 30 ans se suicident avec l’aide de l’état parce qu’elles ont raté leur diplôme, dommage c’était vraiment très imprévisible, il eu fallu avoir des dons de divination pour le voir venir, tant pis mais dans le doute je propose de faire exactement la même chose en France pour être sûr
It doesn't freaking matter that everything is handmade when it gets totally mogged by some random craftsman on Etsy... not just in authenticity, but also in the look, the vibe, and the details of the costumes.
