i feel like people ship xicheng solely for the sake of shipping itself rather for any real reason. it's a ship for the sake of having jiang cheng shipped with someone regardless of who it is. and another hunch i have is that the reason it's a ship because of wwx and the "yunmeng bros" since wwx got with a lan why not have jiang cheng get together with the other AVAILABLE lan.

i genuinely don't see it and it doesn't even work as a crackship/rareship/weirdship the way liucheng or dicheng does.

like jiang cheng was actively excluded from the fucking "sworn brotherhood" shindig that kind of kicks the entire thing in the teeth for me. the complete disregard nit to mention the politics that would get involved.......

also a lot of the people who ship it hypersexualise everything and turn jiang cheng, one of the strongest fiercest mfers alive, into an uwu softboy femboi bottom all for the sake of smut. uhm die pls✨🤗💅🧚

y'all couldn't handle jiang cheng being the aroace/ace/demi icon he is so you had to both alonormatize him and heternormatize him while having him in a gay ship. only in bl fandoms smh my head

at this point chengqing is a better ship than xicheng

think we got over her design in this version too quickly...

we got tan + buff lara in a mainstream portrayal of her. it literally ignited weeks long discourse among the red-pilled dipshits. i fucking love it.

and if that wasn't enough?

we're getting so much yuri out of it.

SO. MUCH. YURI.

SO MUCH!

Cold hard indisputable fact: Ashley believed she was having consensual sex with Webweaver, and didn't consent to sex with Hughie anymore than Hughie consented to sex with her.

Igon's voice actor: Miyazaki was there while I was recording and giving me instructions for how my lines should be delivered

The other voice actors: yeah, he's there when we record

Frognation: we talk with Miyazaki throughout the entire localization process

How can you call Buddies weird when you're practically running a cult? People are writing Shakespeare worthy sonnots to try and convince me some average looking asshole is a good person. You're gonna be devastated when Buddie goes canon. 🙄

why are you here? no one is going into your buddhole with any of this, so you're clearly stalking the lou tag. What an amazing compliment though, to have your work compared to Shakespeare! I hope our resident poet sees this and knows what an incredible compliment they just received!

Also, if buddie ever just so happened to go canon, I wouldn't give a single fuck seeing as I don't even watch the show anymore 🤣

Class Struggle and Black Rights Movement Contributed To The Victory Of The Việt Nam People Against US Invasion

(funny pics at the end of the post :3 )

On The Great 50ys Anniversary of Vietnamese Reunification, I want to share with you guys a snippet of history that were almost forgotten. Ik that probably only 5 of you out there are gonna care, but well, I'm doing this for myself and for the Vietnamese pride.

This is a key point summary of a really great essay by Joel Geier, I highly recommend reading.

The majority of soldiers in the US army in 60s-70s were made up of drafted lower class and high school graduates, which in turn consist of mostly black men because of systematic discrimination in the US.

Meanwhile, higher ranking officers who stays away from danger are made up of middle class and rich, white men, who benefited from the war.

Soldiers were used as canon fodder on highly deadly Search and Destroy missions that were highly strategically meaningless and morally barbaric.

Anti-war, anti-classism, and black rights movements such as The Black Panthers have primed these soldiers for rebellion against their superior during their time in Việt Nam.

Corruption and opportunism were rampant amongst the US officers, which in turn demoralize soldiers (weapons and products were smuggled and traded in the black market, some weapons were even used by The Vietnamese people against the US army themselves)

The revolt started as small malicious compliance, but after the Tet Offensive of 1968, it was full on open defiance.

Rebellious acts such as: Fragging of officers (anonymously blackmailing by throwing grenade in the officer's bedroom); Open refusal to obey orders; Unofficial cease-fire and even cooperation and support for the Vietnamese people who were supposed to be enemies;...

The revolt were so widespread and debilitating for the Green Machine (allegedly the best US army ever put in the field) that the eventual defeat of American Colonialism in Vietnam was expected even among American army.

Please read the full essay and its bibliography for a lot more interesting history!

And now, here's some pictures of the National Grand Parade (which were lovingly called The National Concert xD ) on the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification!!

Btw for Anders I despise the excuse that "Kirkwall broke him and made him who he is" as if if he lived somewhere else he wouldn't have come to the same conclusion. I actually reject it

Justice and Anders merged way before Kirkwall

Mages are oppressed everywhere

Circle annulment aka killing all the mages in the circle was a NORMAL practice to the point that an outsider (the warden) could just walk in and do it

The templars were shit in all of Thedas they abused the mages in every circle, in kirkwall they did it in broad daylight but they also acted the same everywhere we get this confirmed by every circle mage we meet

Anders was always gonna do something

he was always planning to do something every time he escaped he always had a plan to do something even in awaking

Oh also i reject the notion that Anders awakening and Anders DA2 are 2 different people no i believe one is the natural maturing of the other when you grow up in a world the keeps beating you up and bruising you taking away everything you loved it will change you and make you angrier causing you to feel like you have no worth and your self-sacrifice is the only thing that will ever help change things

also not to mention justice and all his complexities are there contained inside of Anders alongside all that.

the fact that Anders is strong enough to have control over a spirit inhabiting his body and not loose himself entirely to possession but rather be so strong that justice could only convince him to delay what he wanted and try the peaceful talking method for years before realizing he cant take over and trap Anders and that he can only meld together with him and become part of him rather than take over( maybe that why Nathaniel suggested Anders to host justice, he knew how strong Anders is and that he will never allow any kind of take over of his own soul and body)

Kirkwall "city of chains built on the blood of slaves" sure made it worse yes but it didn't cause Anders to do what he did. He was always a freedom fighter even before awakening happened (YES A FREEDOM FIGHTER NOT A T*RRORIST GET IT RIGHT WHY ARE YOU BOOTLICKING THE FICTIONAL MAGIC POLICE AND CHANTRY'S BOOTS)

Anders would have done it no matter where he was because as he says in the end there was never a chance for compromise they would have killed mages anywhere at any time for any reason and he knew that, he knew it ever since the moment they took him away from his mother as a kid.

if you replace “Zionist” with “Jew” in your posts and they start looking like a nazi manifesto, your antizionism is antisemitic. it’s really that fucking simple. stop playing dumb to defend your antisemitism and have a conversation in the mirror about why you sound like that. have a day.

Urgh as someone on both ace and aro spectrum seeing my identity being used to justifying the no-homoing off a canonically gay and bi characters is so shitty. It's not fucking acearo rep. I left wwdits fandom post S5 as the show lost the spark for me eps being hit and miss and how the show treated Nadja. And I'm honestly I'm glad I left seeing people be so rude to you for calling what it is queerbaiting has been so disappointing. Is criticism of shows we like not allowed anymore? And yes it can still being baiting even with queer characters this shouldn't be hard to comprehend. Guess it's both queerbaiting and ship baiting. Also this is last season even if they pull korrasami and get together at the last EP it's not good rep?? It's fun and silly show but shouldn't be on pedestal of queer rep when it isn't and we shouldn't have to settle for scraps.

I can't wait to see how they're going to twist this ask into you being aphobic lmao. It means a lot to hear I'm not crazy, btw. Luckily, all people blocking me are folks I've never interacted with and my most respected followed blogs have agreed with me, so I can't be that mad.

Also, gotta laugh at the aphobic accusations, because I deadass take part in anti-aphobia orgs and initiatives irl all the time, I've fought tooth and nail to have aroace people where I live validated and most of all respected (since corrective rape is a common experience, sadly), the main character of my novel is an asexual actress who struggles with the over-sexualization of her persona and it's been praised by the community, but some folks on the no grass-touching allowed website don't like my opinion on how two CANONICALLY ALLO CHARACTERS' relationship was handled, so I guess I hate aroace people now lol
