everything abt revolver ocelot is absolutely hysterical to me. this man is the worst canon gay rep ive ever seen in my life hes an antagonist who ruins everything in every game has a Thing For Torture and his youngest incarnation is like. a jrotc catboy. i think if i ever met mgs3 ocelot hed start calling me slurs. not bc im gay, just bc i look like a Woman™, but still. like objectively i should Absolutely Hate this character and on some level i Do however the sheer ridiculous nature of like. There Is A Character Who Is A Cowboy And A Catboy Who Has Never Been Anywhere That Cowboys Exist And Was Born In Normandy On D-Day In The MIDDLE Of The Battlefield And He Is So Absurdly Dedicated To The Stupidest Man You Have Ever Met That He Plays Quadruple Agent Over The Course Of 50-ish Years To Ultimately No Avail Bc The Man He Risked It All To Bring Back From The Dead Immediately Let Himself Die On Purpose is so.... like i would never wanna be his therapist but i'd pay to sit in on every single session

listen I get it and I'm all for this but despite all the mistakes dutch had made, he wasn't the one to suggest the robbery in saint denis. on the contrary, he opposed it.

sure some of his decisions got them in this mess but if that's the argument you can literally go as far back as you please like: "if they hadn't met each other this wouldn't have happened"

I'm all for dissing on dutch but so many people in his tag blame him for shit he didn't do--which is amazing, it's not like there's no material

I'll never stop being mad at the fact that Hosea had to pay for Dutch's mistakes

Hosea didn't want to rob Cornwall's train he didn't want to kill Bronte and then these things lead to Hosea getting killed

I get annoyed when people frame the bank job as being Dutch’s fault (somehow???) because it does a disservice to both their characters and is important to Dutch’s final downward spiral.

First off, Hosea isn’t perfect! Sometimes he has bad ideas and that’s important! He signed off on the Rhodes drama that got Sean killed and Jack kidnapped. He thought it was a great idea and it wasn’t. The bank job was his idea and DUTCH had reservations about it. Hosea is a smart, experienced man, but if he was always right and Dutch was always wrong, it would make both of them look like idiots–Dutch for not listening to Hosea, and Hosea for sticking with Dutch.

And I think that the heist going wrong being Hosea’s fault is important to what happens in Chapter Six. If it had been Dutch’s fault, then maybe he would have stepped back and said “I got my partner killed, maybe I am out of control.” Instead, what he takes from it is “I didn’t put my foot down and Hosea died for it, I need to take MORE control.”

Dutch makes so many critical errors, but don’t give him Hosea’s too, it does the writing dirty.

(Side note: if Hosea survived the robbery and Lenny didn’t, I don’t think he would have ever forgiven himself.)

#man 100% this #I've seen people get mad at Dutch for calling Arthur 'stupid' #when like?? hosea does it so much more but it doesn't suit the fandom view they assigned to their dynamic #Dutch bad Hosea tired angel who does nothing wrong kind of thing. #all in all it's as OP said #if dutch truly got Hosea killed he would have been second-guessing himself /constantly/

serbian police is throwing tear gas from 1994 and 1999 on their ppl in 2020

[ra-lek]

WHAT’S HAPPENING IN SERBIA?

TL;DR: we’re living under a dictatorship. people are currently protesting the deaths caused by decisions the government made while prioritising the election over human lives. mainstream news are making it seem like the protesters are hooligans who are protesting new safety measures and not the dictatorship they refuse to even acknowledge.

THE LEAD-UP

here’s a brief list of things that caused the people to protest:

the elections have been rigged since the moment aleksandar vučić became president. not even in a relatively subtle way like in the usa (gerrymandering), but by literally replacing sacks of voting papers with ones that are voting for sns (srpska narodna stranka, the president’s party)

we were lied to about when the first covid-19 case appeared in serbia. the government withheld information from us because it benefited them.

also, about a week before the lockdown, the president made fun of the virus, encouraging people to “go shop in milano if they want”. when the situation got serious, he shifted the blame to the people.

hospitals all around the country were and still are severely underfunded. they’re reusing masks, don’t have enough space for all the patients, and the tests we’re still given aren’t accurate.

the lockdown was lifted prematurely because of the parliamentary elections. if you look up “serbia covid19 cases” on google, you’ll see that the second wave started around june 21st, which is when the election was.

right after the election was over, the government set extreme safety measures, including: police enforced lockdown fri-sun, an attempt to force all belgrade students out of their dorms during exam season, etc.

THE PROTESTS

last night (july 7th), there was a huge unorganized protest outside of the belgrade parliament building.

as expected, the police turned it into a violent protest. they used tear gas 26 times, attacked people who weren’t even protesting, and used unnecessary force against those who were. a man was choked the same way george floyd was.

only n1 (cnn’s channel) actually informed people that this was happening, and their website was down all night last night. every other network was airing their usual program, since they’re controlled by the government.

the people got into the parliament building a few times, but were ultimately forced out violently by the police.

there were protests in other cities too, but they weren’t as large.

rts (the most watched channel in the country) is putting all the blame on the protesters and making it seem as if they’re protesting the new safety measures, and not the dictatorship of aleksandar vučić.

every other international news source is pretty much doing the same.

WHAT NOW?

the protests will continue. in case they’re successful, there will be another election, one that won’t put only sns members in the parliament (they make up more than 70% as of right now).

in case they’re not successful, we’ll be expecting a change of the constitution that will state that there’s no limit to how many terms a president can have. we’ll live under complete dictatorship.

the most you, outside of serbia, can do is share correct information and spread awareness about what’s happening.

reblog and share this post, share other posts (on instagram especially) made by serbian people, call out false information when you see it.
