For the person who told me to be quiet in response to my post on the situation with Gaza, you know? I don't think I will.
THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT IS COMMITTING WAR CRIMES.
The Israeli people are not to blame, Jewish people are not to blame, the rank and file soldiers of the Israeli military are not to blame for the actions of the Israeli government. The Israeli government and other governments that support it shoulder 100% of the blame.
HAMAS IS A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION.
The Palestinian people, Arabs, Muslims, and any other group people might relate to them are, in fact, not to blame for Hamas' actions. Hamas and any government or organization that supports them shoulder 100% of the blame.
Just to put that into nice, small, concise chunks for you.
#politics tw#israel#palestine#israel palestine conflict#The person who made that comment got themself blocked.#I don't tolerate supporters of terrorism.#But just as a nice summary for anybody else who might want to pin the blame for the slaughter of innocent civilians#on the civilians themselves...#Bombing a civilian hospital in a besieged city could not be more clearly a war crime and act of terrorism.#Literally I am making another post about this purely because I am that fucking petty.#I said what I had to say. That was apparently unacceptable to some people. That only makes me want to say it louder.#I do not support the actions of the Israeli government. Which is apparently a problem to some people.#Despite literally stating in bold fucking font that the Israeli government =/= the Jewish people.#I also don't support the actions of Hamas. So far no one has fought me on that.

tim drake would rather die than kill innocent people and tim drake killed hundreds of supervillain henchpeople with long-range detonation explosives that one time are two separate headcanons that, contrary to what the fandom discourse would have you believe, can actually coexist at the same time.
there’s even a psychologist term for it.
it’s called compartmentalization!
#let’s be honest#the entire batfamliy “stuffers” from this#and while that’s not something generally talked about#I just find the concept so interesting#how they all justify their actions — both socially moral and socially in-moral — to themselves#particularly how they all justify their actions to themselves in different ways#and for more evidence about their compartmentalization: there’s obviously the fact that they all have superhero and civilian identities too#also#this might need to be a separate post#but#the fandom’s perception of each member of the batfamily as individuals#often read more like they have bought into the characters’s “masks” they wear due to trauma#the “masks” being how the batfam are completely willing to be only perceived as one-thing#because that’s easier than being a real human#with blood and pain and fears and failures#they’d much rather be#the nice one#or the funny one#or the smart one#(etc. etc.)#dc#dc comics#dc characters#batman comics#batfam#the batfamily#tim drake#robin#robin dc#red robin

Israel has released a list of names of Israeli settlers who died on October 7, and interestingly, at least half of them are IDF soldiers or police force
It should also be noted that a lot of these were caused by the IDF according to civilian interviews
[id: it’s two screenshots. The first is of a tweet from Israel which reads: “These are the names of the 1,400+ victims brutally murdered by Hamas terrorists one month ago today. Some of the victims have still not been identified. Remember their names. #Oct7Massacre.” Followed by a low quality and inconveniently formatted image of names. The second screenshot is a quote tweet to that from Twitter user @/meowsandry reading: “Guys I’m literally crying all of the names are just IDF soldiers just zoom in and look it’s all sergeants and majors 😭😭😭😭” followed by the same image but with certain names highlighted. /end id]
#from river to sea palestine will be free#like. Israel released this image themselves..#it follows a long trend though where they continue to state that their soldiers are actually civilians#like that headline about two civilians being killed but they are wearing tactical gear#and the article also says they are part of the IDF

Dc x dp idea 18
Ghost are the embodiment of what they represent. An example skulker is the embodiment of hunting. Without skulker no one could hunt. It just doesn’t exist anymore.
In this a dc villain captures amorpho in order to find out hero’s identities. The villain has to figure out how to utilize amorpho. He’s only managed to trap him using tech from the fentons.
Danny cannot find him amorpho in time. The villain manages to take away disguise from everyone but himself. For Danny it’s not as big of a problem as it is for every other hero.
Danny has two whole separate identities not so much a disguise. (He transforms not just throws on a mask. Same would apply to captain marvel)
This leads to a pre teen and a teenager both pretending to be mature trying to find amorpho. They both have no idea what there doing.
After a bunch of nonsense they free amorpho. Disguises now exist again.
#danny fenton#danny phantom#dc x dp#dp x dc#dp dc crossover#dp x dc prompt#dp x dc crossover#billy batson#cass could theoretically join the fun#depending. like I’m a bit behind on her stuff but what i recall she doesn’t really have a civilian identity#i believe she stopped really using her civilian identity i may be very mistaken#Danny and billy revealed themselves to each other#they took full advantage of the lack of disguises#the dc villain was not expecting two children to be the ones tracking him down#Bruce is very much not okay with this.#it doesn’t help that caption marvel did not bring his communicator#so he can’t even get a progress report#lots of robbers get arrested cause ppl could see there faces through the ski masks#good day to be a cop#bad day to be a criminal#no hero’s are out and about but major villains aren’t either#Damian put on his mask#Bruce was like i can see your face#everyone tried after that#at the same time he got an alert from the watchtower

People for some reason: Well arcane is a show written to be complex. That clearly means no character in it can ever be in the wrong, including my fave. In this essay I will justify gassing civilians.
The writers, repeatedly, with about the same subtlety as a sledgehammer: POLICE BRUTALITY IS BAD. POLICE BRUTALITY IS BAD. IT'S BAD FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO DEHUMANIZE PEOPLE. IT'S BAD TO DEHUMANIZE PEOPLE.
#textpost#arcane#not to say there's no subtlety#or that zaun/jinx/ect is morally right#just saying that certain actions are clearly portrayed as entirely morally wrong#also not to say the character themselves qre entirely morally evil#and you can't stan them#just please please don't justify gassing civilians with a watermelon in your bio

I dislike takes that Danse would be just as conservative in modernized aus when it's clearly shown his staunch views of things come from his time in the Brotherhood and his deep-rooted desire to belong to something with a greater purpose.
Not to mention lines that show much more open-mindedness that get overlooked for his harsher sentiments when you first meet him. Like the oppurtunity to be a part of something is why Danse fell so far into Brotherhood dogma and it doesn't negate the offense things he does but I feel like it's just lazy to be like "hmmm he'd def be racist" just so it aligns to his BoS beliefs.
#like i genuinely think he would like not fall into the military if he was in modern times because of all the other things he could do#he clearly has a passion for tech and mods and likely would find himself more useful as like a mechanic like at most hes one of those range#types or something but I feel like people equate his seriousness and him being a military man to closemindedness when its like having to ge#a new view point like we really dont know what he believed in before the BoS if he believed in anything at all outside of selling scrap to#survive before basically having an army recruiter have him join one of the scariest factions like why is the BoS so fucking violent???#like the BoS operates in such a way cause there is no civilian population like everyone is something or training to be so they arent really#fighting for anything but themselves at this point which is just a feedback loop of gaining more power and is not equatable to real#military people due to the fact most of the recruits are really born and bred to be soliders while say irl you have a family and country to#fight for and return to outside the military which is def grounding as Danse wouldn't be in the army 24/7 like in canon#idk its odd to me when a character that is has fantastic racism ergo the trope of bigotry to fake races people try to translate it to real#life especially when those races have not equivalent like tell me what is the irl equal to a fucking ghoul or super mutant like????#racism is not like a funny headcanon like making him a defrosting prude or by the book is whatever but he would not be a bigot just like a#narc or some shit hed tell on me for loitering but I know hed tear apart each voting party and likely the military for being self serving#and like knows all about it and it makes him sound like a politics nut but its more annoyance like I have such strong feelings about#characters who would be marginially better if they were not victums to the military like yes I believe we can fix Danse he just needs to#be around not war/the military for like a week and see people be happy existing like he doesnt know how to do that but this is a weird take#ive seen mostly from white fans that makes me super uncomfy like ur weird#anyway still fuck the brotherhood everyone is so rude like damn i know its the east coast but can we get a little hospitality fuck you#maccready was right brotherhood of squeal more like it dont worry porky we'll get you out (danse is porky btw)#fallout#fallout 4#fo4#paladin danse

Broke: Damian is bad at being a Robin because he's too violent
Woke: Damian is bad at being a Robin because he's afraid to hurt people
#obviously it's always funny to do the whole 'what do u have there Damian?' 'a knife!' 'nO' thing#and like make him a horrendous and silly evil gremlin who can and will pull a sword out in the middle of a parking lot to fight#but listen#he doesn't like the assassin background that much and once he learns about like The Normal World he's honestly in anguish about it#that's canon! that's the truth! (right?) (the whole thing with Goliath?? I'm not making it up right???)#i think he's just the kind of guy who loves his swords because they're what he knows and they're a strong connection to his family#but I think it's nice if he spends his time on field telling others what to do because everyone else learned to fight the OTHER way#(by defending and subduing opponents rather than maiming and killing)#so he prefers to take on a tactician general role despite being perfectly capable as a fighter because he knows what everyone else needs#to do to succeed in fights - especially when things are a bit of a mess - but is afraid to be too rough or scary or violent or Demon Son-is#(the things that make him feel like he doesn't belong in a happy civilian world - WHICH IS WHAT HE WANTS IN MY HUMBLE OPINION.)#in this essay I will explain why this allows for him to show awe and love for each of his siblings' fight styles by utilising all of them#and I just think Dami Babs and Tim could really work together as a detective/tactician comms team (with varying distances from the field)#because I think that'd be so fun: Tim is solving (mid-range) Babs is watching/providing supports (far) and Damian is commanding (close)#because the others are like The Bruisers (in their non-lethal way) who trust themselves to only hurt as much as is needed and are good at i#PLUS babs is SO stretched thin and literally the backbone of the bats so I just want a future where some of the kids become HER robins yk#anyway back to the point of the post:#it's kind of alluded to in 2017 supersons; EVERYONE in it comments on how Robin is JUST doing flips and shouting orders#and jon is like The Muscle and the one Doing Stuff - but Jon IS following orders 85% of the time and it works out well for them because#that dynamic of 'I'm not sure I can do it right by myself and I trust you to be my partner so we can do it right together' really#is my favourite like.. they're both filling these ideas of who they're meant to be and they just :( they just seek their own path together#oh no I lost the point again immediately and it became another WHY DO THEY SEPARATE THEM rant#I just think it's really fun to think of Damian as 'the most well trained fighter but ALSO the most likely to step back from a fight'#like yeah when we add in my thoughts on pit rage it adds some angst but that doesn't matter here in THIS post#have I even talked about my hc on pit rage/madness? I don't think I have LMAO (maybe another day)#anyway it's late I'm tired why do I always chat in the tags so much#my posts are literally all in the tags 2% post 98% tags smh#damian wayne#damian al ghul#damian al ghul wayne

I feel like a lot of people forget/don't realise that the citizens of the NCR don't have positive opinions of the Followers of the Apocalypse
#Txt#Not a dig on anyone specifically just something I've noticed in a lot of analysises of them#Both here and on YouTube#If you have arcade as a companion you get a few voicelines from ncr civilians talking shit about the Followers#Troopers I don't think have any but citizens for sure#And the Followers themselves talk about being hated by the NCR#Angela Williams specifically has a lot of bad things to say about the Followers and she's just a random scientist#who is actually otherwise pretty nice

One thing I hate, but makes total sense for these characters, is the way they talk about mental health. So much of their language makes the person with the mental instability a nuisance. Kinda grating. But Ill look passed it.
#The Hardy Boys But With Ghosts#spn#supernatural#sam winchester#dean winchester#yes Im refering to how they speak of sam#I know they're concerned still but jesus christ - I feel like they should keep that tone to themselves#especially since Sam already has to deal with that bullshit#also that other hunter guy#though I can see the situation - the hunters are basically in warlike scenerios#and I think that's where their mentality comes from#there's civilians - other soldiers - your unit (family) - and then there's the enemy and doing things that justify the means#its all there#which is also interesting because they transformed into the roles#since dean died both sam and dean have conditioned themselves to act like they're in war

The honor code dictates that killing someone who is unarmed is dishonorable.
The honor code dictates that killing the mother of a child is dishonorable.
Yautja honor code has a lot to say about what the occupying colony of Isr**l is doing to the Palestinian people in the name of Zionism. It hides behind the shield of the Holocaust while actively committing one themselves. As of last night, February 11th, 2024, Israel bombed the 2.2million people it said would be safe from the threat of bombs. They bomb hospitals, places of worship, and UN schools. They're killing unarmed civilians who fish in the sea for food while spending billions of dollars on propaganda advertisements pretending they're the victims and not the people who have suffered under seventy-five years of brutal occupation.
Justice will come for the people of Palestine.
#FreePalestine
[ID: A predator hand holding the Palestinian flag in front of an orange and cream background with the words in the font of 1987's Predator saying Free Palestine. ID End]
#yautja#predator#free plaestine#israel is an apartheid state#yautjalover#israhell#pro palestine#zionists are all bad bloods#bad bloods must be brought to justice in the world court#there is no honor in killing civilians who can't defend themselves against 2 ton bombs.#palestine#israel is a terrorist state#avp#alien vs predator#predator franchise#free gaza#west bank

your last post abt icemav vs. interior design has me cry laughing and also makes me want to ask: how does rooster (millennial gay man, fairly good at being open about his sexuality in comparison to the the environment he came from) feel about being one-uped in the gay department constantly by Mr. and Mr. Can’t Talk About It?? like him and jake have to have conversations about it [jake, meeting ice the first time: oh this is the gayest man i’ve ever met. he had everyone fooled for thirty years???? // bradley: “yeah but you didn’t have to grow up with him. i was on the front lines.] like—they were willing to get married at the same time as icemav as a distraction, so they have to be aware of how groundbreaking icemav is to the structural appearance of the Navy. but they’re also fully immersed in Navy culture and customs, so are civilian gay people even surprised??? do they care??? or is everyone collectively reading through twitter like “gay men in navy? okay fork found in kitchen 🙄 who cares.”
this is all just a long way for me to ask if icemav is easier to pick up on/less surprising if you’re gay. bradley clocked them early because he was in close quarters with them constantly, but he’s also gay—in comparison, slider knew ice for years, but only added it up when it was way too obvious to ignore. and to other straight people they seem to be at an Ethan Hunt level of undercover, but are they really??? (this is kind of a dumb question so feel free to do whatever you want with it lol)
see i feel like i haven’t been writing them very obviously clockingly gay at all! i actually feel like it would piss Jake and bradley off how STRAIGHT ice & mav act all the time!
1st excerpt from post-marriage, second excerpt from a scene that got deleted from WWGATTAI chapter 9, wherein compacflt ice approves the promotion of a fictional “first female admiral to be married to another woman” and then runs into her at a DOD Xmas party and chats about gay marriage for a bit out of curiosity… (deleted bc chapter 9 was already 9.5k words) like it is still a secret even if they aren’t actively trying to keep it secret anymore
but you’re right hold on. here’s christmas 2017
#fork found in kitchen killed me btw i screamed out loud#ice isn’t outwardly gay except in all the ways that he is#like i feel like the pacific fleet staff all kind of assume he’s asexual and ‘married to his work’ a la Sherlock#until he becomes secnav & everyone reads up on him again & learns OH SHIT HES MARRIED TO A BLOKE OMG THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE#i feel like they’re really still straight-passing unless you get them in the same room where they can be themselves & not navy facsimiles#and then#oh yeah. that boy is gay. and i really believe that.#pete maverick mitchell#tom iceman kazansky#icemav#top gun#asks#top gun maverick#bradley rooster bradshaw#even another gay admiral couldn’t clock him!#no civilian gay people don’t care#that meme of the gay b-52 dropping bombs on another country#warhawks are warhawks whether gay or straight#or so the rationale might be#LOVE the big gay b-52#as ive written about on this blog elsewhere

Thinking about how "self defence" is considered okay until a country the west is not allied with does it.
#yes this is about iran#israel attacked first and then they responded and now everyone is like “wait wait they can't do that!”#and I'm just sitting here looking at Palestine like ???#And look I'm not saying I condone any violence esp against civilians#but I am saying it's bery ironic and telling#when Israel fucks around and finds out#I am kind of here like damn finally tasting the taste of your own spit that you spat at another#must feel like throwing stones in a glass house eh Israel is kinda the feel I'm feeling rn#but anyway#also a note while I say I'm generally against violence I do think resistence is expected and deserved when colonial powers oppress people#I'm specifically talking about how I'm not condoning any attacks on civilians#BUT resistance is justified while Palestine is occupied#and long live the Antifada#both are two things that coexist for me here#and things I think are being honoured in the resistence the more I hear of personal accounts of said civilians#*civilians#When one military side says “oh this happened!” only to be proven as liars over and over again#then the hostages themselves say “no we were attacked with friendly fire from israel”#and for that to be proved??#Then hearing how said hostages say “Hamas put their bodies on the line to cover us from said friendly fire” like??#maybe Hamas aren't the aggressors when they treat their hostages like this and israel has killed their own just to get at Hamas and civ-#-illians alike#tag comments are a mess and probably don't accurately portray feelings fully but long live the antifada and down with colonialist lies

I know 'person with secret to hide spots other person with secret to hide but doesn't say anything' is like. Thee trope in superhero crossovers, but come on! Some of these guys have been doing this for decades! There's tons of heroes that have gone to pretty extreme lengths to be Completely Imperceptible in civilian life.
Don't you think it's scarier, after all is said and done, to sit there and think I didn't notice a thing? I wouldn't have ever realised? I would never have known? To know that someone you were familiar with - close with, even! - had this whole other personality and skillset and powers and experiences and life just behind the curtain, and they hid it so completely you didn't even see it was there.
'I always knew there was something off' what if you didn't. How world shaking would it be to be so utterly blindsided? To know that this person had somehow learned to so deceptive?
#Strongly inspired by the dp x dc where Danny knows what up IMMEDIATELY or a bat clocks Danny as super suspicious within mins of meeting#Or the amount of reveal fics caused by the hero slipping up in some stupid way and getting themselves doxxed against their will#Like come on!! Full time heroes like superman or batman or Spidey go to great lengths to construct an entirely separate civilian persona!#And yes I know they've had their idiot moments when it comes to their identities but they've kept their secret rock solid for irl DECADES#What's an identity reveal without drama!! Shake it up! Stir the pot! Not a slow and gradual build up of suspicion and stress#But two high speed trains coming at right-angles and the audience is the only one who can see the incoming crash#Twist the knife in if you want. Make it HURT. Make it completely rewrite what they believed.#Short ID reveals are great for this because you can SEE the ripple effects spreading out as the story ends. Just BANG.#But also no ID reveal at all. The main character goes through the story regularly interacting with and developing character right alongside#A hero in hiding and no one is ever the wiser. You're a worker in WE fending off attempts to steal your inventions and Bruce Wayne#Invites you to his office to discuss security and he walks you back to your office when you get nervous about a break in.#You're struggling with school bullies and getting into trouble over your photography hobby and Peter Parker is right there alongside#You complaining about rich kids and fiddling with the outdated finicky lenses you got from the school.#You're a reporter unpicking a mystery scandal and you ask resident tank Clark Kent if he's able to play bodyguard if you go somewhere shady#The reader knows. No one else notices a thing.#And besides focusing on the civilian side is a nice change of pace! Let's see how they manage leading double lives!#What do I even tag this#batman#superman#Marvel#Dcu#spiderman#secret identity#identity reveal#long tags#captain marvel#miraculous ladybug#I know I know#hero and villain

Feel like the "anti-military people supporting palestine is hypocritical" crowd doesn't understand that being anti-military isn't being anti-fighting it's being anti killing civilians for geopolitical gain
#People on this webbed site will be like#'so youre saying you dont like it when multiple colonial governments funnel billions of dollars into dropping bombs on densely populated#Civilian areas but youre fine with it when the people in those civilian areas arm themselves in defense?'#?? Like. Yeah. Lmao. Thats exactly what im saying#Like i dont think israeli civilians deserve to die just like i dont think american civilians deserve to die#But the difference between those deaths and the indigenous ones is that theyre not being systematically backed by white supremacist gvrnmnt#ruby speaks
