the funniest shit forever to me will always be how xerath was full of empathy, as confirmed by azir himself in realms of runeterra, and WAS what you could consider a "centrist" and he picked assasination as literal last resort what is repeated, like, twice and was killing people who wanted him and azir dead bc... literally there was no law that would protect them bc these people were already working around the law or with law.

so, we already have a picture of the type of guy xerath was which definitely wasnt a psychopath, would even say an empath actively working to save more people than just himself (AS AZIR HIMSELF CONFIRMED IN WATER AND SHADE TO YOU, it was xerath who begged him to do anything, it wasnt azir's idea), reaching for violence as last resort when everything else fails (like, pls, playing with abortion for so long? what do y'all think it was for??), and he wasnt reaching for power all this time, he just WAS and he was complitely content with just vibing as long as one day he will be free and STILL wanted to remain at azir's side. because he just LIKED this prick for whatever reason.

and then he just... does 180° somehow.

and by "then" i dont mean azir's assasination because that shit was 100% morally correct and im dying on that hill.

by "then" i mean writting message with blood (chronology in ouroboros doesnt make sense, nor does how mercenaries would know they would find him here...or at all), deciding the world is "ripe for conquest" (despite himself being victim of imperialism and fighting against it his whole life)(like, why does he suddenly want to rule, he didnt want to rule), killing hundrets of civilians... but then not using them as cannon fodder in the duel (so one inconsistency is him not believing human life has any value... but then he instantly contradicts himself by commanding mindcontrolled to step down), and in lor ofc (unlike in lore where he has employed servants) having literal slaves what is a one huge middle finger to everything he ever believed explained with "ritual conviniently turned him AND ONLY HIM of all ascended into a complete psychopath 🙂"

and to anyone saying that its caused by isolation and madness - you never read any scientific paper on effects of isolation and it fucking shows, you have no idea how fucking stupid you sound.

xerath taking that turn is not only in bad taste for slavery apologism but is straight up ableist as well because there is no basic understanding of human psychology, everything is just discarded as "mental illness" (whatever the fuck that means, its not like there are ANY behavioral patterns that would let us diagnose xerath not to mention lol quotes 2011, lol quotes 2014 + bloodline and 2021 lor are 3 different people (mainly bc despite lor being copy pasted Fields of Justice voicelines, unlike 2011 ver, are spoken unironically, not as arena taunts of nexus resarcher (remminder- thats what xerath used to be) but as a guy who fucking believes this shit

its just mindbogling to me how riot without ANY explanation turned ascended xerath into a complete antithesis of human xerath. and if at least there was some petty pathetic reason thrown like "other slaves outcasted him when ritual was about to happen so he decided everyone deserves to DIE and slalvery is cool actually" (it doesnt make any sense either) but no. riot just went: character who is a person of color and a slave who is literally the only voice of reason and empathy on this fucking continent doesnt deserve any explanation for anything and will be turned onto a hipocritical, moronic villian of the story sending a message that actually slavery was better bc in the end he inevitably became what he hated bc the only answer is upholding status quo and waiting for mercy of your abusers because he, as a slave deprived of basic human dignity, was too stupid, spoiled and greedy to succesfully solve the problem and not get "corrupted".

I think people some times don't understand the very simple criticism I have when it comes to Sylas and Xerath in Runeterra.

Like, here's the thing, I point out that Xerath and Sylas are liberators of an oppressed minority group villified and turned into monsters by the narrative, and people just go "well, but they kill people/are self serving, they aren't actually good guys, they are bad guys!"

And, like, that's fucking missing the Point?

The issue here isn't how Sylas and Xerath do bad shit, it's the narrative SPECIFICALLY creating two liberator type characters in an oppressive and unjust system and make them "just as bad if not worse" as their oppressors.

It's framing the forces of change and revolution as morally bankrupt and villainous compared to the "misguided" forces of the status quo that could be reasoned with if you just talked to the ABSOLUTE MONARCH OF YOUR COUNTRY, and the centrist, passive forces represented by Lux whose whole thing seems to hinge on "Wait it out do nothing maybe mutual aid it'll probably pass in a couple decades when J4 dies and his son J5 comes to power hoping he isn't as much of a bastard as his dad." Since they can't even do the usual white liberal take of "Go vote!" Because, again, absolute monarchy and and NO ONE in universe but fucking NOXUS of all factions seems to have a problem with that as a fucking system of government.

It's framing the Status Quo as inherently good, a golden age of myth and wonder ruined by the actions of the disenfranchised, if not for a couple of bad apples and misguided/unaware people in positions of power, like they've been doing with Shurima and like it happened in Arcane with the council, rather than the powerful ruling class that would be actively profit off the misery of the oppressed and know full well about it.

It's sinister, and far above the mere textual analysis of those characters motivations of morals.

Yes, Sylas and Xerath are monsters who warped their ideals to their own self serving needs and are therefore not good guys or genuine.

Who the fuck wrote them like that? And for what purpose.

The particular phenomenon is "judgement culture": people who spend most of their time judging others, especially highly creative people like Einstein and Musk, not doing creative work themselves. This seems like a bad habit - almost a trap - some people get into.

Satoshi holding on to a million Bitcoin? Most core developers I know are skeptical of the methodology used in the original article making this claim. https://bitslog.wordpress.com/2013/04/17/the-well-deserved-fortune-of-satoshi-nakamoto/ … (To be fair, I don't know of a written critique.)

"If you have control of the servers belonging to Visa or MasterCard, you have control of Sweden" Also good points made here about the vulnerability of digital payments to war and other conflict: easy for Putin to cripple Sweden this way. https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2018/apr/03/being-cash-free-puts-us-at-risk-of-attack-swedes-turn-against-cashlessness …

@VitalikButerin

62. So I *do* think both sides need to improve their discourse. But Craig Wright *is* crazy. Fin.

61. Samson did then attack bitcoin cash'ers for calling it bitcoin cash. That seems unfair; we for example have no issue with Ethereum Classic.

60. Samson: "Now that you have your own coin and BCH people have their own chain to promote, there really doesn't need to be any animosity" Agree fully; though it does seem we are still far away from that.

59. "Bitcoin Core is some science project for people who live in first world countries..." One line I think I saw on /r/buttcoin is "Bitcoin has turned into a bizarro ICO for the lightning network"

58. Roger's argument: the core devs diverted the project and shifted the vision in ways that many of its constituents disagree with ("store of value") and belittled and censored them, so of course people are upset. I personally do agree that the vision was diverted.

@WhalePanda

To a layperson, this shouts conservatism. You don't want to be dumping into a bubble. Interesting that there is this much discretion over a programmatic selling program, though.

Okay this needs to be said.

The Hunger Games is a good series. The books were. But im gonna say this. Yall are gremlins for bagging on it now after the fact.

The movies could have been better, but let's look at the books. Now I haven't read the books in a few years so my memory is hazy. Feel free to correct me, but don't be aggressive about it.

The love triangle: I have never been a fan of love triangles. Most of all the "oh! Two hot guys love me and I have feelings for both of them woe is me!" And while Suzanne Collins can write what she wants, to this day I don't like how she ended it. You had like 10 years to read this story so Spoilers ahead.

Katniss should not have ended up with Peeta. And on the same mark, she shouldn't have ended up with Gale either and thankfully she didnt. Katniss was right in that being the last thing she needed was more anger in her life. But I don't think saying that Peeta is the only help that can be given. Ver-batum "What I need is the dandelion in the spring...that it can be good again. And only Peeta can give me that" Katniss suffers from fits of PTSD post the first novel. I'm not a psycologist, and my 2 trimesters of high school psych. Concepts and personal Psych don't mean shit, but I think I studied mental disorders enough to where YOU DON'T FOCUS ON ONE PERSON TO THROW YOUR PROBLEMS ONTO. Let alone Peeta had PTSD for the same reasons, then the tracker jacker (is think that's it. Can't remember. The bees) interrogation. Katniss needed professional and prolonged help, and I don't recall her getting it. I don't know if I'm coming off as too brutal, but this needs to be said. It's nice to talk to someone, but to make that person the one thing that keeps you stable is not a good mindset.

Gale. Now, I liked Gale. I enjoy seeing brotherly dynamics that don't "evolve" into love beyond friendship. But of course you have to include a child best friend in these kinds of stories. And I had that creeping suspicion the entire time the "you knew this man for years you'll go out with him" moment would come. And in book two it did. And then I disliked Gale for having been a total ass, like Katniss betrayed his trust when she had to kiss Peeta during the games. The woman was allowed to make her own choices, put on your big boy pants and stop acting like you deserved her.

Now that my biggest bugbears area out of the way, let's talk about what they did right, albeit some of them are right just barely (Sorry if my wording doesn't make too much sense. Most people who know me decipher what I mean rather easily when I rant)

The Human Cost: As anyone who read the series would point out, or remotely knows about it, the story was bloody and conflict driven. It wasn't watered down (for the audience considered, it wasn't). I was 14 when I read the series. The young adult audience Collins had in mind. Before then, I read mythologies and slice of life manga, if the most brutal I read was DBZ (They didn't have that in the school library though) so the time I read it, I was in shock. A child like Rue dying, that was jarring. Then the attack on the Capital. The moment with Prim and all the other children. Children as war casualties. 14 year old me still only thought that adults died in war, all I knew was that refugees were a thing. Im turning 20, I know it's much more than that now. But reading the death of those who were trying to help the hurt, that scared the life out if me. So I think Collins did well, if not hit the line, with the war.

Traumatic Events Affecting the Psyche: A lot, and I mean a lot of writers do this. They write off the after affects of battles. What should have been a traumatic event they just. Shrug off. Katniss, Peeta, Haymitch, and several other tributes develop with some form of mental harm because of the game. What Haymitch saw made him an alcoholic for Christ's sake. Katniss' only way to deal with what she saw was to hunt, but even then, she got flashbacks. And Peeta was a mess midway through Mockingjay. It showed how ones mental state can be affected in times fear and violence.

Now, I'm gonna adress a few problems I had with the movie.

The Casting: I did wish the cast was more diverse, but once you realize how vague a lot of descriptions are, you'd get why they just went for "copy paste white dude/woman." Katniss and a lot of people in the Seam were described as "olive skinned and black hair' which sounds like ...Mediterranean decent to me? I don't know how you can solve that. Don't know many Mediterranean actors. And yeah, making damn near the entirety of District 11, the agriculture district, African American wasn't the best idea now that I look back at it. It smells heavily of a throwback to Civil War America. A lot of descriptions were loose at the end of the day.

The Hunger Games isn't the perfect story. Now with what I read, it's far from it. But it was my first Dystopia. And it was my first series. That won't stop me from admitting it's problems. But it was good, and it still holds up as "Baby's first military run state" story.
