@naranciagaming meaning that they have a prestige stretching back atleast a century before film even was born. films are awesome and no one medium is better but i personally find it easier to find a book thats a diamond in the rough than it is for films (5/5)
@naranciagaming of course, great art doesnt need a huge budget, there are often great indie films, but those then run into the issue of those movies being much harder for the average person to find. thats before getting into extreme advantage books have due to history and education (4/5)
i think peoples politics would become very different if they stopped seeing the global south as a collection of humanitarian crises and started seeing it as the majority of humanity
@Silver_Mix_@MilkLadsForever =happens, with ur fave guys esp. xatus a rlly cool choice! also notably, i dont think most ppl would think ruins of alph have other pokemon bc its the unown area and only they spawn in the main part. wonder why wills xatu is so forgettable tho - do most people just plow thru him?
@Silver_Mix_@MilkLadsForever it IS wills ace but most people arent going back to check back all places to find pokemon - its spawn location is niche (having to go through another area after you get surf), case in point convo with my gf who just replayed the games using guides
@CurvyBug class while large parts of the society are enslaved, most people have no voice at all, and women are treated as second class citizens. its how most of those types probably wish we still were like.
@CurvyBug YEAH RIGHT??? like when people hold up greece as some sort of enlightened beginning of Western Culture (TM) you know they believe in some truly awful things about human rights. athens is like America at its founding. preaching democracy but only for a white privileged land owning
@CurvyBug but if places other than greece had democracy, how can you justify western chauvinist fascism posting about the west invented society and democracy and rationality!!! despite the fact that there is no common lineage from athens/greece to most of the west!
@GothTransFem YES. you get it!!! you get it and youre still so early in the series!!! the way the shows own design plays in such a space has always been rlly cool to meee
@lesbian_yearner oh CHRIST i read some stuff about kadji amin and it makes me sick that ive been such a big fan of someone whos going out with such a vile transmisogynist.
@GothTransFem utena is literally my show of all time. fair warning, the 1st ep is p light compared 2 later arcs... it does an incredible job of exploring misogyny and lesbophobia and lesbian love
@Nurvis15@VValtzy_ defensiveness instead of reflection which doesnt help people actually not be racist. and again, no one who is engaging in racism or other bigotries deserves endless patience or sympathy on principle. 7/7
@Sheepy_Babey@Nurvis15@VValtzy_ the "wholesome but ignorant person learning to be not prejudiced" can be pretty trite. can often absolve a character of their wrongs, but taking the opposite action is also unhelpful. if someone being racist means they deserve death or harm then that just incentivizes 6/x
