So, why do some people who love Crimson Flower always go on about how the English translation is pure evil? Because they always say that "oh, Treehouse hated Edelgard," but they never do a side-by-side comparison of why the English translaton is significantly more pro-Dimitri and anti-Edelgard (notice who they leave out in that) than the Japanese script.
From what I've seen, it seems to come from early fandom interpretations of 3H saying that it was "mistranslated to make Edelgard look worse" that came from people who, uh. Primarily didn't actually speak Japanese, or otherwise had a fairly severe misunderstanding of it.
You'll see this with pretty much every big-name event that is claimed to have been "mistranslated" in general. The AM parley, the Continue To Kill no u, Faerghus Toxic Masculinity, and "the Dream Interview calls her an antagonist not a villain" are the Big 4 of this thing happening, and all four of them have been thoroughly debunked as nonsense by people who actually speak and understand Japanese. That's probably why the actual MAJORITY of events that get the "this was mistranslated to make Edelgard look worse" card don't actually have that side-by-side comparison you mention (since there's WAY more smaller things that they say this about, for example Dimitri was TOTALLY JOKING with Edelgard during Gronder 1 and TOTALLY WASN'T freaked the fuck out at her "jokes"), because the people who claim this are 0-4 on being correct about this for four of the most important examples of this supposedly happening.
So they'll kinda just say anything is Totally A Mistranslation in the hopes that the English-speaking fandom who for the most part don't speak Japanese will believe them, and through that believe them on what the game is "actually" trying to say. With that being, of course, that Edelgard was completely and utterly right about literally actually factually every single thing she has ever said in the game ever and literally actually factually every single other person who disagrees with her is completely and utterly wrong (unless what they're saying is, of course, in alignment with what Edelgard is saying).
And if anyone who actually knows what they're talking about comes in and corrects them - even nicely! - they'll either go on about how everyone is coming after them (read: people who understand Japanese are correcting someone who doesn't understand Japanese about something that exclusively revolves around understanding Japanese), or they'll accuse that person of being a liar/sexist/homophobic POS who just wants the poor little gay bean that is Edelgard to be pure and utter evil since they totally view all gay women to be pure and utter evil.
All this, from what I can gather, is mostly to serve as a justification as to why they like Edelgard since they view liking her as a villain to be a genuine mark of bad character, for some reason. They want to believe that she's the progressive figure who does everything for the little guy for one reason or another, and so grab for any excuse they can give her they can think of to make their interpretation of her not seem so unfounded against all of the evidence Edelgard provides the player that she really is just an imperialist who doesn't really give a shit about her people if doing so gives even the slightest bump to her goal of forceful unification. All because daring to like villains is just soooo baaaaad lmao

wenting. cw: anti lae'zel. (upd: if you want to reply and disagree, please don't bother. I'm not looking for a discussion & the post is specifically hidden under a read more.)
'lae'zel offers protection to tav' did you miss the moment where she acts like it's their only choice (she literally says so) and commands that the player does as she says?
every time you disagree with her, she acts like you're the stupidest person ever born & her entire communication with you from the beginning is commands, not understanding and suggestions.
no please, no thank yous. the way she talks to you at the teiflings' party if you already chose a person to spend the night with is 🙄🙄🙄. her constant "tchuck" is annoying as hell.
from what I've seen, i wouldn't like her even at the end. and yeah, i understand that she's young (she's not five years old though, she's 22, that's not really an excuse) and inexperienced, and from another culture (being mean is a culture now? though yes, her "goddess" is a cult leader), but she could try harder and be nicer from the second we meet her. not just constantly bulldoze through you, your companions, and your shared opinion(s).
though i agree, the ending with Orpheus and the dragons is nice. maybe she'll get better after Vlaakith is finally destroyed.

Ed: "What exactly do you have filtered on that site? I mean besides actual triggers"
Me, laughing: "The Elite, BCC, Marvel, and death matches"
Him: "But Okada"
"I blacklisted before that happened. Tragic outcome for me tbh"
He's baffled at my reasons why and has now walked away.

you don't know how many mutuals are really REALLY into these Minecraft guys until they start a new season of whatever and suddenly your dash is completely incomprehensible. I'm so glad you guys are having fun. But what is going on.

I don't know him that well personally, but I WOULD take a bullet (an arrow? I guess, in this context?) for Anri of Astora
He gives me SUCH soft boy vibes, I just wanna protect him at all costs despite him being in a literal suit of armour already

Most Westerners probably haven’t actually thought abt their precise terminology much, but “settler colonialism” isn’t actually the most accurate term to describe the state of Israel’s actions in Palestine; the most accurate description would be something more like “conquest supported and maintained by settlement”. Colonialism, as a term, implies extraction of resources for a non-local imperial state; the state of Israel isn’t extracting the resources of Palestinian land for the benefit of any imperial body anywhere else, it’s doing so for its own benefit (& that of its citizens) on that land.
Analysis of the state of Israel’s actions is imo incomplete without acknowledging that it’s not committing violent conquest and settlement of Somewhere Else, it’s committing violent conquest & settlement Where It Is, and that it’s not the state’s wealth & power that’s predicated on that conquest, it is the state’s very existence. The state of Israel’s conquest is not merely a means of extraction to enrich the state; the conquest is the means by which the state exists.
