The issue with Rey is that
Roughly speaking, she falls outside the usual societal hierarchies of the hero. Now that's not a bad thing. But once it compels speech, it becomes enforced. It becomes dogma.
And that's chaos.
Check this petition I found.. https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/stop-collective-punishment-minorities-south-africa
she was just given her power, she didn't earn it
so, to one of the most important facts besides flat earth, star wars franchise is dying, Disney killed it
Well the core of the Hero's Journey is making the decision with the power; becoming your logos. Earning it isn't necessary. The idea that it would be necessary is something Foucault would say.
Look at how damage the Marxists caused!
you don't get good at something without practice
look at tiger woods, yes he had a gift for golfing, but he also had tons of practice
you can't just be good at everything, even with practice, she is
That's the thing.
It's about building skills for life. But not for Rey. She's the role-model in a sub-religious narrative structure. The meaning of this doesn't exist in a vacuum.
not sure what you mean
It's unexplored territory.
What I'm trying to do is open your mind. That's what I'm attempting to do, unlike the Postmodernists.
That's the thing about Mary Sues. They're a residual promulgation of the Judeo-Christian Ethic.
Roughly speaking, Jung would call this an archetype.
in the next movie she is going to spontaneously perform heart surgery to save a life and then fly like superman around the world to reverse time to save a planet blown up by a death star.
you heard it here first
I would watch it
ugh im bored
anything interesting besides FE, or science rubbish to debate about?
That's not a very scientific experiment lol. Wolfie is full of sh#t
are you a conspiracy theorist magneto?
I prefer the term truthseeker but yes
you should take some of the roles in self-assign-roles
Basically I lean towards earth being concave
Yeah I will do
not flat?
concave is bulging outside right?
No not flat used to be
oh well, you've got a FE tag
you should ask for an Alt one if they have one
