@AvalancheSSC@Angellicnew The first triple A Gundam game shouldn't feel like it's ashamed of its source material. Also, no, there's no ideological conflict there. If I want human vs aliens I go to a different franchise
@taokami3@TheLittleDrinka The important difference being that the Turn A was designed by Syd Mead and its design is a deliberate narrative choice by director Tomino
@peateargri73152@sufficientarian@denimneverdies That's absolutely not true. A slave's master could kill them and they would not be punished under the right circumstances because losing their property is already punishment enough
@peateargri73152@sufficientarian@denimneverdies Do not fucking compare sexual assault to general exploitation. I know biblical law views women as sex slaves, that doesn't mean you have to be disgustingly misogynistic as well. What you said is absolutely not true. The per capita amount of rapists was far higher than it is today
@peateargri73152@sufficientarian@denimneverdies Also, there is a huge difference between the top 1% committing mass rape in secret and sex slavery being a legal, widely practiced custom. If you can't tell this you are frankly too brainwashed to look at things objectively. Try listening to some historians and critical scholars
@peateargri73152@sufficientarian@denimneverdies Being ableist won't make Christianity look any less bigoted. The difference here is that there were many more slave owners and if your boss is caught beating you close to death they will not be able to get away with that unpunished.
@peateargri73152@sufficientarian@denimneverdies Even if what you said is true: You cannot just beat someone up unprovoked, go to court and receive no punishment for it. Slaves back then had it significantly worse than "the average american". Female slaves were frequently raped by their owners, for example
@peateargri73152@sufficientarian@denimneverdies No this is not true, you're propagandized. Critical scholarship is in majority agreement that if the slave dies only after a certain amount of days the owner would go unpunished. Also, even if what you said was true: You can't legally beat someone to a pulp. Stop the whataboutism
@peateargri73152@sufficientarian@denimneverdies This applies if the slave dies after a certain amount of days after the beating, which modern law would still consider murder. Also this does not change the fact that this is very different from "the average american rn", so stop distracting from that.
@GhastlyBar85419@denimneverdies Paul's sexual ethic was also extremely homophobic, so it's certainly not just in the old testament. "Moral laws" aren't a distinct category mentioned anywhere in the bible, just a post biblical justification for cherry picking which laws you want to follow
