#i post a lot about Tommyinnit for someone who doesn't go here

[likeabitchylamb]

I'm gonna add some context here, and ramble for a bit, since I watched that video when it came out and sorta have some context and lots of opinions about this-

Here is what Jacksepticeye is asked in the clip, verbatim-

Q: Do you like mr beast? / A: No. (truthful)

Q: Do you think mr beast Ruined YouTube? / A: Yes (truthful)

Q: In all honesty, why?

A: because it became more about views, money and popularity than it did about having fun.

When asked to clarify his comment about them having fun, Jack says (verbatim)- "If he had fun doing those videos, they'd be longer... we'd see the fun."

Mr. Beast, as seen above, basically ignores what Jack is actually criticizing and throws a hissy fit. to clarify: JACK IS NOT complaining about Mr. Beast's charity work. HE IS NOT hating on how Mr. Beast "inspires others" and HE DOES NOT THINK Mr. beast should spend his money in non-charitable ways like mansions and cars.

Jack is saying that Mr. Beast as a brand and channel affected YouTube as a platform and that affect is negative. That single channel (yes i know he has other channels stfu) changed how other's need to post in order to get views, and how the algorithm favors that method. if you see people talk about "mr beast era youtube" this is what they're talking about.

"I gave ONE LUCKY subscriber a LAMBORGHINI" / "I spent ONE MILLION DOLLARS on..." / "I gifted ONE THOUSAND V-bucks..." The thumbnails all look the same. Wide open faces. Shocked. Heart eyes. Amazed. Emojis. words like "HUH" or "WHAT???" "OMG" and "WOW" in big font covers the picture.

THIS is what Jack is talking about, but Mr. Beast doesn't focus on that. instead he focuses on the "fun" comment and dismisses it because he doesn't know what it means. Well i do. (at least i think) Jack started out on youtube posting for fun, and over the years has had to keep a mindful approach to YouTube so he keeps having fun so he can stay sane while posting for so long. His ideal YouTube is everyone else having fun and posting and garnering channel viewership of likeminded people who also like what they post. (I wholeheartedly agree) Mr. Beast's impact on YouTube has made the platform favor soulless clickbait titles that hinder that creativity and promote an almost corporate viewpoint on how often they should post: daily. constantly. dont stop that grind! Bigger Is Better! Jack hates that mentality when it comes to YouTube videos. It takes away the appeal of posting on the platform, regardless of if someone wants a hobby or a career.

He's also commenting on video length. I took a quick look at mr. beast's channel and looked at every video until the timestamp said "2 years ago". There are 34 videos. Only one video goes above 20 minutes. 6 were below 10-15. He keeps most of his videos around the ten minute mark, which last I checked was the optional time for watch minutes or whatever the youtube algorithm wants. Yeah, a lot probably gets cut, but at least mr. beast isn't too keen on showing all the "fun" he has while filming if it makes the video a bit too long for the algorithm. Again, showing us that business comes first and fun second.

It's honestly funny to me. The question right before the clip started was about Jack's opinion on how YouTube as a platform has changed over the years, and if that was a positive or negative change. Jack responds negative. Tommyinnit's (who posted the video and is asking the questions) next question was "on an unrelated note...do you like Mr. Beast?" Even without saying WHY, Tommy gets why Jack said negatively and knows what Jack is going to say. And that's what prompted this whole thing.

Finally, with it being nearly 1:30 am as I type, I want to say "fuck you" to mr beast about those snide comments about Jack's content. "obviously there is so much i can say about his content but i'll just take the punches and be the bigger man. Sigh." He types like a middle schooler trying to sound cool. One Last Diss before logging off. Actually, it's not even a diss. It's an implication of a diss. Not saying something, but saying you could say something is weak. It's meaningless. It's empty. Compared to this, I'd actually have a smidged of respect for him if he HAD said something. One Single Insult. Come on Jimmy. If it's OBVIOUS you can say something. Say. It. lol

Also fuck you, your last video was crushing a lamborghini and you AND your friends absolutely own mansions and sports cars and idc about you actually owning that shit- youtuber makes an obscene about of money and ive seen your viewcount- i care about you acting like you dont in that tweet. "would you rather i spend it on mansions and sports cars?" YOU DO! saying that implies you don't and idk if you meant that or not but that phrasing was AWFUL.

Jack in the clip isn't even disrespectful. What he's saying is true. Mr. Beast's content lives and breathes clickbait titles and thumbnails and is designed to play to the algorithm. Mr. Beast just can't take criticism in any form. Even from someone who is well respected on the platform and has more experience with youtube.

anyway sorry for the rambles. it's just late and i wholeheartedly agree with jack so seeing this tweet mildly pissed me off. i'm not actually mad though lol i'm just tired and wanted to chat some shit. if you actually read all this shit...

*gold star* and an apology for the length. sorry! i'm gonna head to bed.

why are jacksepticeye and mrbeast beefing

About revived (by Derivakat)

(Disclaimer: Nothing against Derivakat, I think her songs are amazing in general and she's very talented, I simply have a bone to pick with these lyrics and characterization)

So um, here's my counter to some of the lyrics because fuck it, I'm tired and fueled by spite, let's go:

Let's start with the chorus:

"White streak in my hair but no stress now" - Funnily incorrect, cc!Wilbur confirmed that the white hair is from stress itself, it's not about the revival process alone. Also just by reasoning, I cannot imagine what might have been stressful about spiralling and believing that the world is out to crush you, believing that you're the scum of the Earth as well, only to die, spend 13 and half years in dark isolation and then being jolted back up to life missing huge chunks of information, really cannot fathom how that might be stressful /s

"I've seen hell, but this is a bit more my style" - True you know? It's awesome that he's said that he's over the moon about being alive again after spending 13 and a half years of pure isolation in the dark, screming until his throat was hoarse. But coming from the tone of it, I'd like to point out that Wilbur's also still passively suicidal and self harms (check out the part under "He doesn't love TNT, he self-harms with it" in this post)

"A decade of time to make everything mine" (also counts for "This is my sunrise, this is my dawn, this is what I've waited for all along. All of this time, all this is mine. MINE. MINE. MINE!")- Honestly, based on what he's been doing, no prejudices, forget everything fandom's said: he doesn't really seem to want to "make everything his", does he? This perception mostly comes from him saying "This is my sunrise, this is mine!" in the original revival stream, however, if you forget about common fandom perception, what's so evilly framed about a guy who spent 13 and a half years of isolation in the dark saying "this is my sunrise!" after watching the sun coming up again for the first time since his death, in which he was extremely emotionally unstable? Like for real?

Now onto the verses:

"Am I the bad guy? I'll be the bad guy again" and "I've come back hell-bent" - Now, he has said that: “Here’s the thing, Tommy. I, I, I, I know I was bad, and I know I can redeem myself, but like, you know, there’s a little bit of fun in being bad, you know, we’ve spoken about this.” - (Wilbur’s resurrected gentleman of L'manburg: 11:31, 5th May), BUT, since then he's also expressed genuine remorse for his worse actions during Pogtopia (check out the parts under "He really regrets what happened in Pogtopia" and "Wilbur cares. A LOT" in this post), a wanting to redeem himself and truly become better and... uh... OH! He's also admitted that he's afraid he scares people and cried when Ranboo said that he was "an alright person". For real, just watch the Healthy Competition stream and read this reddit post by cc!Wilbur

The reddit post in question, just in case:

"You think I cared? It was always a means to an end" - So false. Just... so false. Ok, so quick one, let's review the actual lines said originally about him "not caring for L'manburg" in full:

“Uh, one thing, I didn’t actually really care about L'Manberg, I just cared about, you know, sticking it to the man. Actually, I cared about L'Manberg for the sole reason that I could use it to stick it to the man.” - (Wilbur’s resurrected gentleman of L'manburg: 24:18, 5th May)

“Look, I- Okay, I said it wrong. Look, I did care about- I did care about L'Manberg, but I cared about it for- You would call it the wrong reasons, but I, I- Just don’t think about it, don’t think about it too hard. Look, L'Manberg’s gone now, we’ve got that, you know- That, that wart on my side is gone, you know. I salute it, I salute it, you know, it was a great- It was a great place.” - (Wilbur’s resurrected gentleman of L'manburg: 25:18, 5th May)

“Look, Tommy, I’m gonna reiterate for you once more because I don’t think you quite understood, and that’s okay, you know, you don’t need to understand everything. I did care about L'Manberg. I did, I did. A rose by any other name would still smell as sweet, Tommy. L'Manberg would have been as loved by me had it been called Bimbum and was built in the middle of the desert.” - (Wilbur’s resurrected gentleman of L'manburg: 26:05, 5th May)

“The actual location, and the actual things it was, it were, were not important to me. It’s the thing it stood for. Which was freedom, liberty, and sticking it to the man, Tommy!” - (Wilbur’s resurrected gentleman of L'manburg: 26:26, 5th May)

“We were a family, Tommy. We were…” - (Wilbur’s resurrected gentleman of L'manburg: 27:26, 5th May)

So as you may see, he retracts himself immediately and explains his feelings with more nuance

Then, let's look at the more recent confession to Ranboo:

“I told Tommy that I didn’t actually care about L'Manberg, and that it was just like a tool for me to use to gain like, you know, power and stuff. But it’s not, it’s not true.” - (Wilbur’s A Year Later: 26:36, 3rd Aug)

“L'Manberg is- was really important to me. And it is still to this day.” - (Wilbur’s A Year Later: 26:47, 3rd Aug)

“I want it to, em, I want its history to live on not as a stain caused by me, you know. I basically just took a big shit on the history books, it feels like. I wanna, I wanna make it, I wanna make it feel like it was, you know, it was something that happened. You know, it was a great thing, you know, think of the good times. The- The years of safety. Well, not years, but you know.” - (Wilbur’s A Year Later: 26:47, 3rd Aug)

If this got more explicit I'd be literally hitting you over the head with it. Anyway, check out the parts under "Wilbur cared. A LOT" and "He really cared and cares about L'Manburg, and didn't want its ideals twisted to hur others with" in this post

"So who cares? So what? I'm not calming down" and "Shut up! And listen" - “Tommy, shut up! I mean, Tommy, come over here. Tommy, come over here, come over here, man. It’s cool, it’s cool, it’s cool. Sorry, I, I-” (Alivebur)

– (Wilbur’s A Deck of Cards with a Green Smile on them: 26:08, 31st May)

That line's totality gets often cut down, erasing the immediate apology after the loss of cool. Furthermore, I'd argue that him "not calming down" in general is mainly due to his euphoria and overexcitement during certain scenes where it makes complete sense for him to be feeling like that, and in a broader sense, he has a tendency to say things in the heat of the moment and out of impulsivity that he turns to later regret from all the way back at Pogtopia. Him not calming down now is either out of impulsivity or outright euphoria to be out of limbo, not necessarily an evil thing. And when he percieves he should calm down, he tries his best to do it, or apologizes for snapping

“I’m sorry I wasn’t, you know, entirely on the same page. But, man, I promise you, I’ve calmed down, you know, I’m all, I’m all settled in. I understand, you know, what’s changed, what hasn’t, who’s new, who’s old, you know, who’s still about, you know, who… Who, uh… uh… Who trusts me and stuff.” - (Wilbur’s A Year Later: 15:04, 3rd Aug)

“I relived that explosion in my head so many times man. And, and, and I- I get that you don’t, you don’t trust me, I do, but like, man, look at me, bro, I’m not gonna do it again. I’m not gonna- I’m not gonna hurt you again.” - (Wilbur’s A Year Later: 21:21, 3rd Aug)

(Check out the parts under "Wilbur cares. A LOT", "Paranoia and distrustfulness are integral parts of his character", "Self-loathing and self-sabotage are also integral parts of his character", "He hesitated regarding the button tons of times" and "He feels inhuman. He knows that people see him as a freak, evil or crazy and that makes him feel dehumanized" in this post)

"There's nothing wrong with me" - BUDDY. Wilbur drowns in self-hatred, what are you talking about? The man got caught off guard and cried when someone said "you're an alright person"... He's worried that he scares people, he knows how others see him on top of his own self-hatred

“TommyInnit, as you know, is just, he thinks I’m insane. I’m not insane, chat, I’m not insane.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 4:30, 16th Oct)

“See, I’m not so crazy, Tommy. I know what I’m doing.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 16:40, 16th Oct)

“I’ve told you, I’m not crazy, Tommy. I know what I’m doing, and this is genuinely the best thing we could do right now.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 17:18, 16th Oct)

“I’m not crazy! How am I crazy?!” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 43:18, 17th Oct)

“Everyone I seem to meet has this deep intrisnic feeling of disgust towards me. Jack Manifold seemed to be quite nice to me, but I reckon he, I could feel it, you know, in his stare. But like, you don’t have that. I can tell you’re a good guy.” - (Wilbur’s resurrected gentleman of L'manburg: 30:24, 5th May)

“Quackity, I’ve, I’ve, I’ve, I’ll be honest you with you, I’ve lost everything, man. I, um. I’ve lost decades of my life. I’ve lost my- most of the people who cared about me. Some people don’t even know I’m back yet, and I, and I think that’s probably for the best. So I feel like that does humble a man. That really humbles a man, you know?” – (Wilbur’s A Deck of Cards with a Green Smile on them: 1:00:52, 31st May)

“Listen, Phil, I met, I met Quackity. After you very kindly lent me your house. I went and met him. Yeah! I met up with him, and I hadn’t seen him in ages. It was, I’m gonna say it, it was nice. It was a nice time. I- I- It felt good, it felt, uh, you know, he didn’t, he didn’t seem afraid of me, which is cool.” - (Wilbur’s Healthy Competition: 7:38, 25th July)

“Not many people do. I mean, Phil, you don’t seem afraid of me, you’re not afraid of me, are you, Phil?” - (Wilbur’s Healthy Competition: 8:03, 25th July)

“Good, good. 'Cause I’m not afraid of you.” - (Wilbur’s Healthy Competition: 8:10, 25th July)

“Why? Why? … No, no, no, no, no, not the, not the bit about the, not the bit about the right foot, the why don’t you think I’m a bad person?” - (Wilbur’s Healthy Competition: 35:13, 25th July)

“Can I be real with you, man? I think I scare people.” - (Wilbur’s Healthy Competition: 36:30, 25th July)

“I mean, like I, I, I, I don’t think I, I- I think a lot of people share your idea, but they share your idea in trying to- trying to keep me from hurting them, you know? Like they’ve seen what I can do, and they don’t want me to do it again, so they adopt your emotion in order to do it.” - (Wilbur’s Healthy Competition: 36:46, 25th July)

“Dream is- He’s had his comeuppance, and I have not! My comeuppance was apparently not good enough for this people. They’re just waiting, they’re waiting for the next thing for me to slip up on, and, Ranboo, I’m not gonna fucking slip up, Ranboo. I’m different.” - (Wilbur’s Healthy Competition: 38:07, 25th July)

“I’m living in eternal limbo, again. I’ve been through limbo, I’m out of limbo, and socially, I’m still in this limbo.” - (Wilbur’s Healthy Competition: 38:36, 25th July)

(Check out the parts under "He feels inhuman. He knows that people see him as a freak, evil or crazy and that makes him feel dehumanized", "Paranoia and distrustfulness are integral parts of his character" and "Self-loathing and self-sabotage are also integral parts of his character" in this post)

"Oh yes, I blew up the nation!" (said with glee) - I make a point of the tone in this specific line, because I could make a point of the tone in the whole song, but this line is a good example. He didn't blow up L'manburg just with glee like "hell yeah! I did it!". Of course he talks about it with pride sometimes, but it's usually either said in the middle of the same impulsive moments in which he'd claim he doesn't care, said with relief of him having control over at least that situation (like him sighing right after doing it just to ask Phil to finish it off by killing him), or said with the same deflection with which he'd claim that not having a grave didn't affect him and was badass actually since he only wanted it for the hateful obituaries anyway (which was a lie, and he admitted it on the third of august stream when saying "I was so pressed about not having a grave" in case you had doubts)

Finally, I want to make emphasis on the fact that: The explosion on the 16th had two main drives behind it and they often get glossed over. The first objectivee was blowing it up and causing just enough destruction to get L'manburg back (You know, when Wilbur still had some kind of hope). After his spiral went further and his paranoia and self-loathing worsened, his two drives become apparent: First was blowing it up to rid the world of the twisted thing L'manburg became, ridding the world of what the twisted version of his ideals became with Schlatt in control of them. Secondly, he wanted to end L'manburg as a part of himself and rid the world of himself completely (by this I'm referencing his suicide), he decided he wanted to die and expected that as a result since a lot of time before the 16th. The explosion was effectively a bigger projection of his suicide, rid the world of both himself and his creation, mixed with his constant desire to protect, it also becomes "rid the world of the corrupted version of L'manburg that became Manburg", because for all intents and purposes, since the important thing about L'manburg was its founding ideals, L'manburg had been dead for a long time at that point.

“Yesterday I had the perfect opportunity to blow everything up and finally end it, you know. I had the perfect opportunity to finally blow up everything and end it and just completely save everyone, right, from the tyranny of Schlatt and the tyranny of the existence of Manberg and L’Manberg, right.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 25:17, 17th Oct)

“Explain it to me! Give me a reason! Give me a reason!” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 26:50, 17th Oct)

“Who else is it gonna hurt?! It’s gonna hurt Schlatt, Manberg, and-” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 26:55, 17th Oct)

“Why did I bring- I should have just done it. I’m such a fucking showman. I should have just done it.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 27:18, 17th Oct)

“No you two can escape, I’ll be the… I’ll- I’ll- I’ll be… I’ll be trapped in here…” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 27:27, 17th Oct)

“I just- I just want to f… I just wanna end it, I wanna end it. I wanna press that button, man.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 28:08, 17th Oct)

A LOT", "Paranoia and distrustfulness are integral parts of his character", "Self-loathing and self-sabotage are also integral parts of his character", "He hesitated regarding the button tons of times", "He really cared and cares about L'Manburg, and didn't want its ideals twisted to hur others with", and "He really regrets what happened in Pogtopia" in this post)

I finally have a semi-coherent thought about A:TLA again!

Zuko and Katara (or Sokka or whoever, it truly doesn't matter) in the crystal caverns... except they don't know he's Zuko. He's just some random -apparently- Earth Kingdom teen stuck down there with them.

They have no clue why this guy (who introduces himself as Li) is in there with them.

Then everything goes wild when Azula comes down and starts talking to them and inevitably calls him 'brother' or something.

So I've just been excited that c!Tubbo told c!Ranboo what happened. That he got executed because c!Quackity and c!Schlatt peer-pressured c!Techno and that he made the burns from that attack canon.

However I keep seeing people upset that c!Tubbo is not upset with c!Techno and that people are saying that the peer pressure was enough to cause him to do that.

However, I don't think any of them are actually thinking about the facts of c!Techno here because their arguments are always along the lines of "Oh, he could have fought his way out :/ He could have easily beaten them".

They're probably right, even against high odds, c!Techno could beat a lot of people. However, c!Techno isn't one to take a risk he doesn't have to and also -

The peer pressure does come into play, like it or not.

I would like to bring to the table that both cc!Techno and c!Techno have rather severe social anxiety. This is true and canon fact.

Do you know what it's like to be in a situation where everyone is staring at you when you have even normal anxiety? It's fucking terrifying. I'm saying this as a person with anxiety, both social and just plain anxiety.

So important people like c!Schlatt and c!Quackity, suddenly calling for c!Techno to execute c!Tubbo? He would be feeling all of those eyes on him in a situation where he doesn't have any authority and isn't mid-battle.

Fucking hell that sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Put me in that situation and tell me to stab someone? That knife is gonna look like a good option for getting out of an awkward and terrifying situation. Just thinking of it makes me nervous to the point of my chest getting tighter.

c!Tubbo was in no position to really call him off either, he was literally trapped and couldn't do anything. He had no power to help c!Techno escape the situation of being watched while called to do something, which meant that c!Techno also felt trapped.

Not to mention that c!Techno and c!Tubbo usually got along before that. So c!Techno didn't exactly have ill will towards him either.

Had someone he trusted and worked well with - c!Tommy and c!Wilbur come to mind - tried to call him off, he more than likely would have hesitated more and even potentially just not done it.

But I'm sure some of you would argue that just c!Schlatt and c!Quackity doing it and no one speaking out against it isn't enough.

However, it wasn't just c!Schlatt and c!Quackity was it? it's something we don't want to think of for one very simple reason.

It was us too.

Chat is canon and Techno bends to our will quite often. When it comes to violence, we're the ones who get the final say and get to call the shots.

After all, our favorite phrase is "Blood for the Blood God" and we called for it that day.

And we aren't exactly small in number.

Has anyone ever noticed that when people in the Dream SMP fandom go "Oh, what this character did was unforgivable", "This character is bad", "this character is flat", or "This doesn't make any sense". You can always tell whether or not they watch the person they're complaining about?

Like, c!Tubbo's execution for instance. Every time I see someone say that c!Techno didn't care at all or his character enjoyed it, I can tell they don't watch Techno or completely misunderstand his character.

c!Techno spent several minutes stalling, all while trying to find a way to free c!Tubbo.

If you watch it from c!Tubbo's POV or any other character than c!Techno, it does look like he's just lining up a shot and trying to avoid c!Tubbo's talking, but if you watch Techno all that movement makes more sense. He was looking at c!Tubbo's imprisonment for a way to release him.

He can't. He's forced to go through with it. He gets close to use a weapon he himself doesn't know is effective because he knows at close range fireworks do more damage. Then fires off multiple shots until he gets the message. He also apologized beforehand for what he's doing.

The thing about c!Techno is he doesn't apologize if he doesn't mean it. If he didn't care about killing c!Tubbo he would have fired off his shots immediately and without a word of apology because he wouldn't have a reason to even pretend. He wouldn't have bothered stalling and he wouldn't have bothered with even a half assed apology.

---------------------------------------------------------

Another thing is when someone says that c!Phil's is two dimensional. They clearly aren't watching lore from his POV, only from other people while he happens to be in the room. That or they completely don't understand what's going on. cc!Phil isn't an actor or writer by any means so of course his side will seem a little flat.

If you actually pay attention from his POV and to what's happening rather than purely how he's executing it, c!Phil does have a lot of motivation.

I've also seen people say that his character half-ass tries to explain away shitty things he does, but here's the thing. From c!Phil's POV, those excuses make sense. They aren't half-assed because to him they're exactly why he did it.

Just because you don't like it or it doesn't make sense to you, doesn't mean that it doesn't in the end make sense.

There are more situations than just this too, but people need to work on stopping and thinking about things and not just jumping in on a take that doesn't really have ground to hold it.

I swear-

c!Techno was abundantly clear to c!Tommy from the beginning that he was going to destroy L'Manburg. He stated it several times. He made no illusions about not wanting or planning to.

c!Tommy chose to ignore every verbal statement c!Techno gave him about this however.

Yes, c!Techno stated they could talk about it at one point, but need I remind you that any chance they had to talk about it was completely disrupted by c!Tommy leaving and therefore c!Techno had no reason to even hesitate anymore.

Also, despite seeing several people who seem to think otherwise, c!Techno had no intention to force c!Tommy to help him destroy L'Manburg. He asked but he also stated that c!Tommy didn't have to help and that he should just stay out of the way. c!Techno was essentially saying, "Just stay at the cabin, you don't have to be involved" and meant it.

Not to mention c!Techno showed c!Tommy a room with HUNDREDS of wither skulls. c!Tommy isn't dumb, he knows what that would mean.

So, NO. c!Techno did not lie and hide his intent to destroy L'Manburg and NO, he wasn't going to force c!Tommy to help him.

Things that piss me off when people ignore them, Dream SMP edition. (Surprisingly TikTok and Tumblr are innocent today, I'm just mad.)

c!Techno did not blow up L'Manburg. c!Wilbur did. c!Techno set Withers on the already destroyed city after they set up a government in front of him while knowing he was an anarchist that they had employed partly because he was an anarchist.

c!Wilbur manipulated c!Techno by lying to him multiple times throughout Pogtopia. He claimed Pogtopia was not a country -which is directly opposing what he told c!Tommy as they made Pogtopia- then proceeded to tell him that he wouldn't be making a new government when they took back L'Manburg.

Releasing Withers on L'Manburg was not c!Techno betraying them as he had no loyalty to them in the first place. He had been hired by Pogtopia to help them train and farm. He had no ties of loyalty beyond helping them regain the country. When betrayed and finding out he was lied to, he then proceeded to set the Withers on them. You cannot betray someone who you were never loyal to in the first place and he had no loyalty to L'Manburg.

From c!Schlatt's view, executing c!Tubbo made perfect sense. He was a mole that he found, not only in the country he was in charge of, but in the actual cabinet. Even if we don't like it, it made sense from his view.

c!Techno did not enjoy executing c!Tubbo. He was forced to. He would not have apologized or stalled for time while attempting to figure out how to free him if he had wanted to do it or didn't care.

c!Tommy did not mean to burn down c!George's house, it was an accident. He had set out to steal from people that day.

c!Ranboo was as much to blame for the destruction of c!George's house as c!Tommy was.

c!Tommy took all the blame for c!George's house being burnt down despite the fact that he knew that c!Ranboo was there too and he could shift some of the blame to someone else.

c!Quackity had no right to cause the formation of the Butcher Army. He went to c!Techno's land knowing that he wasn't causing any problems right then. He knew that c!Techno had no intent to fight and used Carl against him. Even when informed that c!Techno was retired he didn't care. Also, c!Techno simply responded to c!Quackity coming after him with the same reaction as c!Quackity gave him. Violence.

c!Wilbur was manipulating c!Tommy for a long time. Even as far back as the Disc Wars. When c!Wilbur told c!Tommy to give the discs to c!Dream, seconds later he privately messaged him to tell him to run, which caused even more chaos and harm in the end.

No matter how much you head canon otherwise, Sally was just a regular salmon.

Here I go making another c!Technoblade post.

During today’s stream Tommy and Techno shared a back and forth that boils down to Tommy calling Techno selfish and as bad as Dream and Techno insisted that him destroying L’Manberg was entirely justified because the Butcher Army tried to hunt him down.

The thing is, Techno is in the wrong. Techno was the one who unleashed the Withers the first time, nothing he says or does can justify this action. Them forming a new government was obviously going to happen and if he thought any different then that makes him a fool, him being a fool does not mean they’ve betrayed him. It’s entirely fair for the people of L’Manberg to want justice and even revenge for what Techno has done but he doesn’t see it that way.

Techno destroying L’Manberg this time around was in itself an act of revenge. He tried to claim that they brought it upon themselves by hunting him, that they could have simply let him go into retirement and left him alone. But why is it fair that Techno gets to take revenge but not them, especially when he was the one to case the first stone?

Let’s throw aside all the bullshit for minute. If this morning, before the war began, if the Butcher Army collectively got together and apologized to Techno for their attack and said they were retiring from hunting him, do you think he would have forgiven them and called off the attack? 

Of course not! Because it’s obviously not enough to simply apologize for murdering someone. An apology isn’t justice and neither is being allowed to retire and live a peaceful life farming turtles. (As lovely as that sounds.) Hell, Techno never actually apologized for what he had done then, because even the first time he spawned those Withers he had and still does think he was justified. 

Technoblades a hypocrite and I’m going to be genuinely frustrated if the writing in the future doesn’t reflect this fact.

Um... What happened to the BLM that's supposed to be at the top? Didn't tumblr specifically make it so it would stay at the top of the trending categories?

Like, I'm not mad at MCC for being popular but it's a little annoying that BLM isn't anywhere on the trending list.

Caduceus really just said “I love you like family and that is a threat.”

I think my favorite part about the relationship between Karl/Sapnap/Quackity is that Quackity is constantly messing with Bad, seemingly for no other reason then to break up his relationship with Skeppy.

Which is a lot funnier when you remember that, in the canon, Bad is Sapnap's father.

Like, imagine you're engaged to these two guys who you love but you just sorta have to put up with the fact that one of them is really insistent on ruining your dad's relationship with his not-quite-boyfriend. Not because he doesn't like one or both of them or because he thinks they're bad together, he straight up just thinks it's funny and, honestly, it kinda is.

I keep seeing people say that Eternals has a gay black man who canonical is responsible for the bomb being dropped on Hiroshima but after seeing the movie, I feel like the people saying this either haven't seen the scene in question or are just looking to stir the pot.

In the scene, Phastos is walking the streets of a destroyed Hiroshima and grieving what's happened. When he talks to Ajak, he says it's all his fault because he was the one who taught humans and helped them technologically advice.

The problem is that it seems like people are taking this comment the wrong way. People are talking about it like he dropped the bomb himself or built it for the humans who did it or even just gave them the schematics but that really doesn't seem like that's what he's saying here.

To me, what it sounds like is that Phastos is grieving over centuries of helping humans learn and build new technology, only for them to use that knowledge to destroy and kill. This is literally just him blaming himself for something that isn't actually his fault.
