Ultimately the resolution of Jason and Cass fights comes down to the fact that while he has his own ideals that don't mesh with the bats, Jason can be flexible. DC skipped the whole reconciliation with the family but while he's willing to kill it's generally a means to an end to him, not the whole entire point unless you're talking about Joker. Meanwhile for Cass the question of killing vs not killing is dead serious to her which means any time they're working together and things start going off track it's like:

Jason: Look if we kill this guy we send a message to his boss which makes it easier for us to negotiate with him from a position of power and I just think that-

Cass, snatching one of his guns and pointing it at her own head: Go on, pull the trigger. Kill him. Kill me. Go tell Batman that you let his daughter die to make a negotiation easier. He already let you die so no problem right? You think we should die? You think our life only worthwhile as part of a plan, just because we're killers? Are we doomed? Are we rotten to the core with no hope of redemption? Go on then, kill us and kill part of your soul alongside it. You clearly don't care for it so why are you even trying? Kill yourself along with us, come on Jason let's all just die right?

Jason, slowly backing away: I think you may be projecting a tiny bit so just. Calm down before I call the suicide hotline please.

Cass, slowly lowering the gun and knocking the random henchman unconscious: Yeah that's what I thought, fucking pussy.

Jason: Mm yeah you know what I hate you actually. Fuck this mission I'll just shoot you right now if you're going to be this annoying about it.

Jason, explaining things later to Dick: So I just kept shooting at her until I ran out of bullets and we both calmed down enough to call a truce. We tracked the guy down and didn't kill anyone but I did blow up the batplane just as a last minute screw you. Is she always this uh... intense?

Dick: Yeah, one time I broke up with Barbara and she threw me out a window. She's just like that.

I always find it interesting that these people completely ignore hijabi girls when they think about getting rid of female bathrooms in schools. I had many muslim friends and classmates who wore hijab and one of the only places they could adjust or take off their scarves completely or change was the girls bathrooms. Anyone who argues for unisex bathrooms and getting rid of female bathrooms always comes at it from such a male perspective and nothing makes it more obvious to me than when I think about the hijabi girls I grew up with. To me, that's an obvious "what about them". To people who literally only want to force males into female spaces with no care at all about our safety, this idea never comes up.

I think the Batfam are chronic sufferers of "everyone wants to fix the problem, and nobody wants to listen" syndrome, and they drive each other so mad they that have to go brood on a balcony or gargoyle because you just finished reluctantly spitting out your issue and someone's already offering a seven point plan they've been working on.

Good ideas that you can do for yourself at the moment:

Make a playlist on Youtube of videos that'll be a good mood lifter. Whether it's cute animals or just a playlist of videos you know will make you crack up laughing.

Make a Discord channel in any servers you run for a similar purpose. Maybe allow other people to post as well, as a means of lifting their own moods up.

Rewatch an old series you were hyperfixated on in the past and haven't visited in a while but have overall fond memories about. Completely burying yourself in nostalgia can be dangerous if you go overboard with it, but sometimes you just need to go back to that point in your life and focus on other things for a short while.

pretty please, my fellow progressives

Could we please all keep in mind that the concept of "The Jews In General, or A Specific Type Of Jew, Controls Education, Government, Media, and/or Banking", is a longstanding antisemitic trope?

And most of all, that it is false??

No, a marginalized group does not also control education, the government, the media, and/or banking?

No, Jews do not secretly control these things and just pretend to be marginalized? No, Jews have not secretly been accumulating power since the Holocaust, granted by too-generous gentiles, out of pity?

No, it isn't better if you just mean a specific subgroup or kind of Jews. It's still specifically Jews.

It's like when people who hate trans/queer people are fine with rich white cis gay men. So they think it's not bigoted to blame "people with blue hair and pronouns" for the downfall of society.

We all know this means, "I only see some of you as human like me. You have to speak and act a certain way to count. Everyone in your group has to pass a test to get into the Good group."

Doesn't work.

Sure, it gives them plausible deniability to the people who matter to them. But everyone else can see exactly how they feel.

We've all known for years that it's bad to think of a marginalized group as having some "good ones." Rein it the heck in, please.

Because YES, all of those examples are ones I've seen implied, or stated outright, over and over, within the progressive community. This month alone.

Bruce will say Dick's the best man he's ever known and then not make him his best man make it make sense.

Since Trudy is partially organic, is she going to die if she doesn't get charged? Because presumably the robot bits are supplying oxygen and nutrients to the meaty bits?

when i dont have lots of work to do: im anxious that im forgetting something im supposed to work on

theres no winning, i have never known a day of peace

Part of why I hate this fandom's take on Autobots vs Decepticons is ppl (mainly 'con fans honestly) who can't have any nuance of the situation whatsoever and love to write plots like "oh the humans are racist and abusive towards Cybertronians so this is how Megatron is right" no actually I don't think colonialism/imperialism and racism are justified so long as you can point the finger and say "they were the aggressors first" or "their hands are no cleaner than ours bc their society sucks too" sorry. Please come up with better sociopolitical narratives in your war story.

Went on a date yesterday and we were talking about batman and his favorite was Nightwing and when I said mine was Red Hood, he was like 'he kills people D:'

Yeah dude that's why he's cool.

I wonder if the writing team was different between season 3, 4 and 5. each season has a different feel and it's really off-putting
