at some point you have to realize that you actually have to read to understand the nuance of anything. we as a society are obsessed with summarization, likely as a result of the speed demanded by capital. from headlines to social media (twitter being especially egregious with the character limit), people take in fragments of knowledge and run with them, twisting their meaning into a kaleidoscope that dilutes the message into nothing. yes, brevity is good, but sometimes the message, even when communicated with utmost brevity, requires a 300 page book. sorry.

"It's not about good or bad, it's about power and who is ALLOWED to use it."
This idea that somehow there is no difference between using power for good and bad or that it's a negative thing to wield power in the name of good is an absolutely absurd and childish point of view.
The Sith are not a group of oppressed rebels - they are a group of Authoritarians who's very creed says "Peace is a Lie". The idea that they deserve to have the same power as a group of people who dedicated their lives to serving others is an insane take on the story.
By that logic the KKK or the Nazis deserve/deserved to hold the same status and power as groups like the UN.
And I just can't wrap my head around this philosophy.

horrific article from the bbc broke last about israel detaining healthcare workers, stripping them naked, and beating them for days on end. we already knew israel was doing this to palestinian detainees, but to be deliberately targeting medical personnel--doctors and nurses and medical assistants on the ground trying to heal wounded palestinians--and then literally torturing them are on levels of cruelty i can't even begin to compute.
a humanitarian law expert in this article calls the footage coming out of this "concerning." i call it the terms racists love to throw baselessly at arabs: barbaric and inhumane.

I'm hyper aware that some people don't like my comics about world matters. But I also know it has brought in many who do appreciate it; and many others have stayed that are okay with it or also appreciate it.
Anxiety and rejection dysphoria still surrounds the whole thing, but I've been lucky that so many people have been very, very encouraging to me through it all, moment by moment.

When the Harry Potter HBO series comes out, I better not be seeing any of the bullshit justifications that you guys used to justify your Hogwarts Legacy purchases.
"Oh, she won't be making any money from it!" She's the executive producer.
"There's no ethical consumption under capitalism anyway!" That excuse applies when you're talking about things that humans actually need, like food. That excuse does not apply when you're talking about a TV show.
"I have to support the creators!" No you don't. No you fucking don't. If that excuse was true, you'd have to consume every piece of media that was ever created. Besides, Warner Brothers is a billion-dollar corporation. You won't hurt their feelings if you boycott one TV show.
"But it was my childhood!" I don't care. I legitimately do not care.
I don't wanna go through this bullshit again. Just don't fucking watch the series. It's that simple.

Jedi Teacher: Padawan Windu, that was amazing! How were you able to take out that rampaging rancor so easily?
Mace Windu, who has Force Shatterpoint which allows him to see where and when to strike: I just hit the glowing weak spot. It's not that hard.
Jedi Teacher:

george lucas, remarkably unsubtley, over and over again: the fall of the republic was because of corporate interests interfering with politics and increased complacency with fascist ideas in the face of a manufactured war
everyone, for some reason: so the jedi were the REAL villains because they didn’t get married
