ok this might be an L take or whatever but i really think a lot of the "you cant be friends with people you have disagreements with on fundamental issues" gang 1. are mostly interacting with others on the internet, and 2. imagining the scenario as like. meeting a nazi at a bar and going "oh hes an alright chap" and not the much more common scenario of finding out your best friend from high school is, like a libertarian who is maybe a little too fond of ayn rand or something. "oh where is this mystical cishet man who says slurs but is an ally" i hate to break it to you but thats like any white boy who grew up in a mildly racially diverse community. none of you are familiar with the special form of brainrot that emerges in white boys when they spend all day at school making friends with the black and brown kids but going home to white suburbia.

So let me get this straight. Johnny can verbally berate and bully his students, throw them in a cement mixer, hogtie them to a punching bag to punish them for successfully landing a hit on him, set a pack of rabid dogs on them, and hurl glass beer bottles at them all in the name of “training,” and we’re supposed to laugh and clap and cheer. But then I’m supposed to think the hot new sensei from China is the epitome of evil because he cuffed one of his students with a foam pad?

i cannot believe i'm still seeing the same "tdp encourages colonialist mindsets" bullshit after a season where Ezran (one of the core good guys) is explicitly like "Ripping apart families by exiling humans and reaffirming borders is wrong," that the initial exiling of humanity was ALWAYS wrong (it literally Broke the continent in two and has to be slowly repaired over the course of every season, the symbolism could not be more overt) and no one in text has EVER indicated otherwise except Karim (a villain!! who's wrong about everything!!), that made it clear that humans not having magic was a Conscious Choice that Unjust Beings made that has been in the process of being rightfully dismantled since season 2.

AND the fact that TDP does talk about colonialism, just through a centring of non-North American/white based history. like i WONDER what could be going on in the world RIGHT NOW about critiquing a viewpoint (that the villains hold at their worst!!) of "well this was our ancestral homeland and we got Banished from it so taking it 'back' by Any Means Necessary (cue magic system where you treat the people still living there as literal parts) is Okay actually bc we're Oppressed (and can't organ harvest without consent whenever we want)" like.

'I flirted with the idea that instead of being trans that I was just a cross-dresser (a quirk, I thought, that could be quietly folded into an otherwise average life) and that my dysphoria was sexual in nature, and sexual only. And if my feelings were only sexual, then, I wondered, perhaps I wasn’t actually trans.

I had read about a book called The Man Who Would Be Queen, by a Northwestern University professor who believed that transwomen who were attracted to women were really confused fetishists, they wanted to be women to satisfy an autogynephilia. And though I first read about this book in the context of its debunkment and disparagement, I thought about the electricity of slipping on those tights, zipping up those boots, and a stream of guilt followed. Maybe this professor was right, and maybe I was only a fetishist. Not trans, just a misguided boy.

About a year later, on the Internet, I come across a transwoman who added a unique message to the crowd refuting this professor. Oh, I wish I remember who this woman was, and I wish even more that I could do better than paraphrase her, but I remember her saying something like this: “Well, of course I feel sexy putting on women’s clothing and having a woman’s body. If you feel comfortable in your body for the first time, won’t that probably mean it’ll be the first time you feel comfortable, too, with delighting in your body as a sexual thing?”'

I don't think you guys understand how much of a chokehold White has on me. White is the perfect human being. He is a pretty kid with rich parents. He's kind, cute, smart, compassionate, loving, the perfect boyfriend. White has no flaws. Both Tee and the audience see that. They count on that. "That means he was a bad character," I hear you say, but I disagree. Because all of the above make him so much better in my opinion. And the reason for that is the few times we got his POV. Because White, from his point of view, is a dirty slut who Tee will one day come to hate. Because from our point of view - and Tee's - his parallels to Non make him vulnerable to the narrative. White is the perfect human being because Tee is the one who put that role on him. He's perfect, because he's not Non (he's not poor, or as much sexually active, or mentally ill, or introverted, or or or). Except, he is. White being so similar to Non doomed him from the start. And it was Tee who did that to him.

Pat : "this goddess only watches over the people"

FE16 : "this goddess guides and protects the people and the land".

Also the Gremlin is the Spirit of Sothis - is she like FMA's Alphonse, but stuck in Billy instead of being bound in an armor, or is she an entire different being than the Goddess Rhea remembered?
