Remember earlier this year when Boeing very clearly had a whistleblower executed? And law enforcement didn't even look for anyone or release any info about it or anything?

People keep comparing Luigi Mangione's case to the subway murderer who got off because of systemic eugenics, but I think there's something more apt about the fact that a CEO had someone executed in recent memory, with zero attempts to find a culprit, while they spared no expense at all to find (and probably frame, it's beginning to look like) someone who shot a CEO. It's always fine to slaughter if you're rich, but if you kill the rich, they will hunt you down.

Wow i just found two new articles with headers that fucking completely misrepresent that wat Michael Moore's recent open letter said:

what the fuck man, are you expecting people not to actually read the rest of the article?

do you think people aren't going to read this part?

fuck off with that, the man is 100% cool with Luigi

Today I'd like to talk about the mistakes the writers made with my favorite 3h lord is Claude, specifically houses Claude. they've done a lot right with his character but that doesn't mean he isn't without his unfortunate flaws.

Lets begin with Almyra and how Claude sees the situation between them and Fodlan.

Almyra is poorly utilized and done dirty by making them war loving barbarians for the sake of it and causing everyone and themselves grief due to their unnatural love for war. And on top of that they made Claude uncharacteristically dumb by blaming Fodlan and Rhea for Almyra's consuquences despite being smart enough to know that Edelgard is the aggressor in part 2.

This could've been easily avoided by making either the 10 elites or the Agarthans responsible for the fued between Almyra and Fodlan.

Next is his view on Rhea and Edelgard. I talked about this before but to sum it up he distrusts Rhea that she can't be reasoned with to the point that he believes that change can only happen if she's gone, all because he blames Rhea for Fodlans throat and yet a violent war monger like Edelgard who endangered his friends during white clouds and works with the Agarthans is granted patience, a chance of mercy, cooperation and the benefit of the doubt.

What makes this even worse is that Claude distrusts Rhea for the wrong reasons. Things like her allowing Fodlan to oppress, conquer and kill foreign nations like they did with Duscur and Brigid are extremely valid reasons to distrust her. The solution to that issue is properly criticising both characters.

The next problem is that he's great pals with Hilda, who's family enslaved an Almyran child and subjected him to extreme labour with no rest and some bread every few days. The ever so simple fix is cutting that slavery junk out. It doesn't get addressed as it should've, only exists to prop up Rhea as a white saviour and Cyril is the brown servant. Just get it it out of here.

And last and certainly not least his support with Ingrid not addressing her unjustified racism and hypocrisy in condeming all people of Duscur for the actions of a few while simultaneously giving Faerghus a free pass for their worse crimes. That could be solved by either A. Cutting her selective racism out ( cause again, it only exists to prop up white characters, isn't handled properly, you don't need extreme racism to have depth, nuance and conflicts and nothing would be missed if it was cut out ) or B. At the very least harshly condemn Ingrid for her repulsive behaviour.

Barring the first issue the selective treatment of similar characters, the needless and extreme racism that purely exists to prop up white characters and not taking the oppression and mistreatment of Duscur and Brigid seriously are issues that plague the entire game and not just Claude.

But that's it for my criticism. Like i said Claude is my favorite lord but that doesn't mean that I'm gonna deny the faults. Liking your favorite character and bring critical about them isn't mutually exclusive.

I hate when people say “I’m against abortion except for if the pregnancy threatens the life of the mother” every single pregnancy threatens the life of the pregnant person. We’ve gotten too far removed from that, taken for granted that pregnancy is safe. It is not. Pregnancy and puerperal complications have been a fairly common cause of death throughout history. Even now, maternal mortality is on the rise in the US, the maternal mortality rate varies wildly across the states and it is disproportionately higher for Black women. Being pregnant is getting more dangerous, not less dangerous.
