Timeline for my WIP Theory

Need help connecting Magadon with Raphael, and/or Riven and Cale with Gortash/Dead Chosen

If you expect me to believe that it’s just a coincidence that 2 of Mephistopheles’ sons are connected to Preventing the Shadowstorm and to 2 seperate and unrelated raids on Mephistopheles vault within a few years of each other, you’re crazy (ALONG WITH THE LITERAL GOD OF THIEVES)

There’s something here: I feel it in my bones. And the fact that Lae’zel mentioned Magadon *matters*

That was a pretty fair tangent, actually! English isn't my first language, and I figured that the word "dehumanization" would fit since, according to google, it is "depriving a person or group of positive human qualities". I am aware that it has been used mostly to justify terrible things, but I figured that just using this broad definition would make sense. Dehumanization as in taking bad people and demonizing them so much, ignoring the fact that there even is one thing about them that's not cartoonishly evil, they're not even seen as human anymore, you know what I mean?

However, you are right that how I used it may appear to be insensitive. Especially considering that the group of people actually being dehumanized in mdzs is the Wens, all of them, including the victims of the cultivation world that feels justified in their hunting down of them. It was just the most obvious word to explain how I felt about this trend.

And you are right, It's not like we're all a trigger away to mass murder, I guess that, in my frustration, I used too much exaggerations. What I mean is that this mindset of taking for granted that the people that do bad things are inherently bad and evil, and that because you know you're not, you won't ever do bad things is not only naive, but actively harmful to the concept of self reflection and growth, you know what I mean?

It fosters a sense of stagnation that I despise more than anything.

I know what you mean, and tbf it wasn’t your response that annoyed me, or really even anything I’m seeing in fandom atm, it was just a good opportunity to talk about it and how I feel about that usage. Really feeling the “not my first language” bit though cause I’m going through the same thing with Spanish now and dictionaries are really not your friend when it comes to nuances and applications of words 😭

I see what you’re saying about how people who view themselves as “inherently good” demonize “bad behavior” to dissociate themself from the possibility that they, too, can do bad things, but this is exactly the material issue of dehumanization I was talking about. A person who thinks they are inherently good is not dehumanizing someone else because they think the person’s “evil actions” make them bad but because they have already decided that that “type” of person is inherently evil by birth and/or status and their actions prove they are inherently evil. Still using mdzs as an example, the cultivation world think they are inherently good because of their birth (clan-focused sects), therefore doing things like mass murdering refugees and turning the other way on a known serial rapist is acceptable, even though those actions based on their own stated morality are wrong. On the other hand, Wei Wuxian is inherently evil, inherently in the wrong not because his actions are bad or his morals skewed but because the cultivation world has decided that Wei Wuxian as a “servant’s son” (status), he is not allowed to question or overshadow them. Thus, the dehumanization that Wei Wuxian faces is not an accident or a product of ignorance, it is an intentional wielding of power specifically being used to oppress him, justifying their eventual murder of him and his charges. The cultivation world, itself, is never in danger of this same dehumanization because even as they fully display their corruption and depravity, they hold all the power.

So the real issue becomes: do people who think they are incapable of harm actually believe that, or are they building a case to mask their material harm against someone else they’ve predetermined as undeserving of humanity?

So, just a coincidence that reference to Sesame Street was baked into this series as a callback to the Jim Henson documentary you just dumped online? Crossover with Netflix, Team Z and British Mafia. You SUCK, Disney. Who is doing this and how many moles do you still have, running your company?

JK Weverse 26.4.2023 14:41 KST

Another comment.

Oh boy, the man is busy.

Do I bring back his comment from earlier?

Sure, why not?

So, we had Jimin-sii o'clock - 13:10

And we had 8/11 (from the date).

And now we have 14:41

Ooh, and guess what?

1+4+4=9 and we have a leftover 1.

There you have it folks.

9/1

JK gave us a full recipe, with love:

13/10

9/1

both have the date in common (a date that derives from the date today).

8/11.

Coincidence?

At this point I really don't think so.

As soon as I walked into the leisure centre, fifteen minutes after S4 was released, Don’t Stop Me Now (the very song that plays in the background when Five is fighting Hazel and Cha Cha in Gimbel’s in S1) started playing. Don’t try and tell me that this is a coincidence.

Update: [I’ve Had] The Time of My Life (karaoke song at Luther’s bachelor party) played as well. This is fate.

You can see the whole world from up here!

Trump has gotten lucky to many times to be a coincidence. He probably made a deal with the Devil or some shit. How else could they miss!?

[dteamain]

it's not a coincidence that the females of the dsmp are all level-headed about s2 and are off doing their own thing being girlbosses while all the men are crying throwing up and shitting themselves bc dream isn't holding their hands
