Steven Universe

2018-07-03 04:27:06 UTC

The only good SJW show ever, or actually pretty terrible?

2018-07-03 04:27:13 UTC

My point was, even if we give up on the "it's imaginary, so not real" non-starter, even if were to accept that imaginary people have the rights of real people, it's no practical, because our laws don't work in fantasy land.

2018-07-03 04:27:55 UTC

An artist can always add a last page with the female character disclaiming "that looked like rape, but I consented."

2018-07-03 04:28:22 UTC

"I was drawn like an underage girl, but I asked the artist to do it that way, I'm actually 18."

2018-07-03 04:29:25 UTC

@LordCaledus Steven Universe is objectively garbage

2018-07-03 04:29:42 UTC

E;r did a good breakdown on it but he missed a few points

2018-07-03 04:30:06 UTC

I've never seen it, but honestly what I've seen _of_ it actually makes me interested.

2018-07-03 04:30:22 UTC

It strikes me as a show written by a super talented writer hobbled by her own politics.

2018-07-03 04:30:47 UTC

She's not talented

2018-07-03 04:30:52 UTC

Like holy fuck no

2018-07-03 04:31:04 UTC

There is literally zero character development

2018-07-03 04:31:11 UTC

Each episode has the same formula

2018-07-03 04:31:20 UTC

Gravity Falls was definitely the best of the latest generation of cartoons

2018-07-03 04:31:30 UTC

That I definitely agree on.

2018-07-03 04:31:54 UTC

Never saw all of it, but the quality threw me back to ye olden days of watching the good shit

2018-07-03 04:32:12 UTC

Like the DCAU. Different genre of course, but high quality still

2018-07-03 04:32:17 UTC

The art style is horrendous tho

2018-07-03 04:32:23 UTC

Calarts is the worst invention ever

2018-07-03 04:33:11 UTC

Popeye is still my favorite cartoon

2018-07-03 04:33:15 UTC

All else is worse

2018-07-03 04:33:24 UTC

Bluto did nothing wrong

2018-07-03 04:33:28 UTC

Tom & Jerry though

2018-07-03 04:33:41 UTC

Close

2018-07-03 04:33:59 UTC

But Popeye is what I grew up on

2018-07-03 04:34:31 UTC

uh

2018-07-03 04:34:33 UTC

Wow

2018-07-03 04:34:34 UTC

So

2018-07-03 04:34:48 UTC

I'm about a minute into that E;R video and had to pause.

2018-07-03 04:34:55 UTC

I'm getting TDW flashbacks

2018-07-03 04:35:08 UTC

Tdw?

2018-07-03 04:35:15 UTC

The Dishonored Wolf

2018-07-03 04:35:19 UTC

Ah yeah

2018-07-03 04:35:22 UTC

They're similar

2018-07-03 04:35:36 UTC

Although E;r is more antisemetic

2018-07-03 04:35:42 UTC

Someone who often makes videos with a premise that makes sense and may even be right.

2018-07-03 04:35:46 UTC

But bury it in shitty points

2018-07-03 04:35:54 UTC

And overly done in-character ness

2018-07-03 04:36:11 UTC

Stick with it, he makes a bunch of good ones later down the line

2018-07-03 04:36:29 UTC

That's up to you though

2018-07-03 04:39:08 UTC

Reeeally getting hard to sort through

2018-07-03 04:39:47 UTC

Like, some of these are arguments SJWs use against games and media they don't like.

2018-07-03 04:40:07 UTC

The gems are all female? Maybe that's because [gasp] the writer felt like making them that way!

2018-07-03 04:40:29 UTC

Hell even in universe, aren't the gems actually just sapient rocks that make bodies out of hard light around themselves?

2018-07-03 04:41:28 UTC

He even missed a really _good_ criticism about character development in favor of shitty ones.

2018-07-03 04:41:49 UTC

The fact that Steven never changes of his own will, he changes when forced to, kicking and screaming the whole way.

2018-07-03 04:42:06 UTC

Like a weird kind of Deus Ex Machina. A commenter pointed this out too.

2018-07-03 04:44:10 UTC

> Power Assertive Rapist section at 13:30

Hmmmmm, yeah, doesn't seem worth the trouble of pirating this mess

2018-07-03 04:48:04 UTC

I'll admit the show's obsession with sex is more than a little creepy, particularly when the two main characters are both minors. Like I get having a theme of two teenagers in a relationship with the sex that often goes with it.

2018-07-03 04:48:29 UTC

But SU seems less like it's written to be _about_ hormonal teenagers and more like it's written _by_ hormonal teenagers.

2018-07-03 04:48:37 UTC

Really goes overboard with the references

2018-07-03 04:49:20 UTC

Steven rapeyverse is a excellent video along with the rest of the stuff from e;r @A Random Crusader

2018-07-03 04:49:45 UTC

Also can we all agree the hysteria over car tarrifs to the US are stupid.

2018-07-03 04:50:07 UTC

Yes they're bad, but boo-fucking-hoo Euros have to pay 15% to import now.

2018-07-03 04:50:31 UTC

Meanwhile Ford, GMC, and FCA have been paying 25% tarriffs to import to Europe for years

2018-07-03 04:51:21 UTC

So far, I didn't see anyone counter Trump's argument of "they've already been doing it to us for decades."

2018-07-03 04:51:29 UTC

I think it's called, rules for thee, not for me @LordCaledus

2018-07-03 04:51:58 UTC

Hell it's how the European car business even survives.

2018-07-03 04:52:12 UTC

@Deleted User The Life is Strange video is the best one imo

2018-07-03 04:52:19 UTC

If not for the tarriffs, American cars would be so cheap that only the Japanese would be able to compete.

2018-07-03 04:52:40 UTC

you mean the one chole is stupid cunt who's responsible for everything @A Random Crusader ?

2018-07-03 04:52:48 UTC

Yup

2018-07-03 04:53:03 UTC

Aka Tumblr simulator 2016

2018-07-03 04:54:39 UTC

tumblr can burn

2018-07-03 04:55:06 UTC

shitty content and a fucking atrocious ui

2018-07-03 05:08:42 UTC

The amount of times I've had to say the US doesn't own Canada shit as a Canadian is too high.

2018-07-03 05:08:57 UTC

We don't even really have a military, and Canadians seem to think we do

2018-07-03 05:09:04 UTC

When we have 60k tonnage of ships.

2018-07-03 05:09:10 UTC

And the US has 3.5 million.

2018-07-03 05:09:45 UTC

"oh no one will invade Canada." Not the bloody point.

2018-07-03 05:10:15 UTC

Crowder pointed out, Canada doesn't need border control.

2018-07-03 05:10:39 UTC

To be fair, a lot of Americans have been illegally crossing the border.

2018-07-03 05:10:41 UTC

Trudeau was blaming the USA for not protecting the Canadian border against the illegal immigrants pouring in, after HE INVITED THEM ALL IN.

2018-07-03 05:10:50 UTC

And Montreal has been taking them in for 'asylum'.

2018-07-03 05:11:48 UTC

Can you imagine if the USA is actually able to scale down the defense spending?

2018-07-03 05:12:08 UTC

I thoroughly agree, Canada is nothing but a leech on America.

2018-07-03 05:12:12 UTC

How much surplus money they'd have.

2018-07-03 05:12:14 UTC

Which is why I welcome annexation.

2018-07-03 05:13:07 UTC

Glass the middle east and NK, let the civilized world defend themselves with their own money.

2018-07-03 05:14:01 UTC

2 days of military activity in the middle east is enough to pay for the entire Apollo space program.

2018-07-03 05:14:29 UTC

Fuck, the USA could have the 51st state to be in SPAAAAACE.

2018-07-03 05:14:54 UTC

America has 1.5 million more tons of ships than RU/China combined.

2018-07-03 05:16:41 UTC

It literally protects the entirety of the oceans.

2018-07-03 05:18:27 UTC

If everyone else in the world combined forces, it would be roughly equivalent in tonnage to the US naval fleet.

2018-07-03 05:18:32 UTC

Not a joke.

2018-07-03 05:20:48 UTC

Image if the USA invaded Mexico, destroyed thed cartels and tried to stanles the country and economy? It might be cheaper longer term than a wall if we got rid of the reason illegals wanted to leave Mexico in the first place. We need to clean up our neighborhood before worrying about the rest of the world.

2018-07-03 05:21:02 UTC

No, not acceptable.

2018-07-03 05:21:08 UTC

Don't need another Iraq.

2018-07-03 05:21:20 UTC

Respect sovereignty.

2018-07-03 05:21:47 UTC

It's entirely their problem, and the wall is fixing our problem.

2018-07-03 05:22:33 UTC

Not if they try to flood our country

2018-07-03 05:23:28 UTC

W A L L

2018-07-03 05:23:31 UTC

I respect the thought behind the wall. Something needs to be done for border security. I am just not sure a wall is the most effective way to spend our money to that end.

2018-07-03 05:24:03 UTC

You can't force-feed freedom and prosperity into a shithole.

2018-07-03 05:24:09 UTC

Wall vs Continuous hemmoraging of border security funding for remote parts of the desert.

2018-07-03 05:24:46 UTC

They just elected a fucking commie, that's in bed with drug cartels.

2018-07-03 05:25:58 UTC

Walls do require upkeep, not to mention there is the debate ineffectiveness.
The cartels already employ tunnels to sneak across

2018-07-03 05:26:10 UTC

It's effective though.
