He didn't directly kill a single person in the attack on shiganshina watch the show ffs

Also he didn't live his whole life in privilege he grew up treated like a Jew in Nazi Germany, thats literally what the Eldians in Marley are intended to represent.

Also stop demonizing political parties not all conservatives are for Trump or are bad ppl

Most Bertholdt Hoover fans are either conservatives or mindless consumers incapable of critical thinking. There's a huge huge overlap between Bert fans and Arcane season 2 fans for a reason, and that reason is Bertfujos sincerely buying Bertholdt's "there's no bad sides" bullshit. While he's, you know, a genocidal nazi almost singlehandedly responsible for wiping out 20% of a country, and this are his excuses for not changing his ways.

The Bertfujos be like:“Both sides are bad and have problems, so maybe it’s individuals and not the systems in place that are the issue.” No wonder there's such a big overlap between Bert fangirls and Arcane fans.

Bertfujos calling themselves "leftist" and "for the oppressed class" my ass. Your fave is a genocidal Nazi from a fascist state that lived his entire life in privilege, having far better living conditions than anyone from Paradis that's not literal royalty.

And for Arcane Season 2, I'll just cite this Youtube commentary under an Arcane Season 2 analysis video which expresses why the "both sides are equally bad" bullshit doesn't work far better than I can:

"It was always clear to me the show would gesture at leftist politics but never support them. Even back in season 1 they instantly pull the old trick of “Both sides are bad and have problems, so maybe it’s individuals and not the systems in place that are the issue.”

Arcane absolutely did this to the extreme.

Piltover is a beautiful bustling trade hub and a center of technology. There are abundant resources for Piltover’s residents, there is wide access to academic knowledge, and notably, not a single character from Piltover is depicted as struggling with any kind of systemic issue. There is no pollution or crumbling infrastructure. There are no widespread diseases or serious drugs, and seemingly no true poverty. Even the systemic corruption depicted through the council members making underhanded deals is never depicted as a bad thing, it’s simply how their system works, and it’s never questioned.

Zaun on the other hand is where all the criminals and “undesirables” are dumped. There is widespread pollution which is directly because of Piltover pumping their own down to the undercity. Notably, there aren’t many foreign characters in Zaun, and many other hints which imply the undercity is mostly cut off from the world by their Piltover oppressors. There is widespread drug use and corruption. The entire undercity’s infrastructure is crumbling. Poverty and food insecurity is rampant. Piltover enforcers routinely harass and beat the Zaunites. The city also has no formal government structure explicitly due to Piltover’s refusal, which is why the chem barons rose to be the defacto governing bodies.

One side is clearly oppressing the other yet they are never depicted as such. Instead the show tried to say “well look at how bad they BOTH can be.”

It’s important to mention how the same concepts are depicted in both cities:

- Drug use does happen in Piltover, but characters like Salo are shown as desperate or misguided. They may do it for pleasure or because they feel they don’t have other options, but they are never depicted as bad for using. In Zaun drug users are literally shown as horrifyingly deformed monsters. They are explicitly turned into subhuman creatures either mindlessly causing chaos and violence, or killing and robbing for their next fix.

- In Piltover corruption of the government is shown as simply a fact of life that outsiders like Jayce must join to keep up with. It’s almost like a game, and the prize is money and exploitation. In Zaun the corruption of Silco and the chem barons is a failure of their moral character. They are sniveling, hotheaded, vindictive, and cruel. All the traits that put them in charge are bad and disruptive.

- Pollution in Piltover is nonexistent. There is basically no dirty street or park. The air and water are pure. The buildings are all in pristine condition. In Zaun the pollution (pumped directly from Piltover) is so bad people like Viktor have life-threatening illnesses and disabilities due to their exposure to the environment of the undercity.

- Technology in Piltover is beautiful and whimsical, almost angelic with the sweeping bursts of blues and whites. Even when it’s something made for brute force like Vi’s gauntlets or Cait’s gun it’s still full of brilliant dazzling sparks and heavenly glow. In Zaun technology is crude, simple, and corruptive. It’s almost wild and goes against nature, like an artificial mutation. When chem tech is on display it’s messy and gooey, almost like blood splatters or slime on everything.

I get the writers and Riot originally made these aesthetics as just artistic contrast, but it does have hidden center-right politics in it. One side, which happens to be the oppressed side, is dehumanized and made out to be wild animals haphazardly committing acts of violence. On the other hand their oppressors are humanized, made out to be passengers who are powerless among the laws and institutions they support which also conveniently make them obscenely wealthy and powerful.

For all its brilliance as a show, this was always the uncomfortable background noise. Since the first couple episodes the depiction of the oppressed and their oppressors immediately played right into American Hollywood capitalist propaganda about how “The billionaires destroying the planet and using child slave labor ALSO have feelings you guys!”"

Stop coddling CopTholdt and excusing his actions. He's a privileged committing genocide against a minority for money with no regard for others lives or suffering.

I have a million reference images on my iPad…. And every time I scroll by this, I have to do a double take….

Don’t ask why Armin and someone holding a gun are right next to one another….

Also, I’m sorry in advance….

Okay I’m sorting this out for my own purposes: My hc is that the Warriors don’t get paid until they’re Titan Holders because then at least they’re honorary marleyeans. Meanwhile this is a system that destabilises Liberio as so many of their Eldian children are sent into the Warrior System and extensively train for long hours to the point where their actual schooling on how to get viable jobs is disrupted.

Also there is absolutely financial abuse going on in there too-threatening to reduce/withold wages if the Warriors don’t comply or aren’t up to (their standards of) par.
