i'm afraid that there's Never gonna be a concentrated effort to get the nazis off of tumbler dot com, bc no one knows what a nazi (or neo-nazi, for that matter) actually is! additionally, no one knows what nazi rhetoric even is, not when it's passes the "Uses Progressive Language" test, bc using the Good Words™ is all you need to let extremely racist messages fly under the nazi-detecting radar. god forbid anyone look in the mirror and ask "am I the bad guy??" and get their shit together.
this website: "hey staff !! >:((( when are you gonna get rid of all the nazis?!?!"

NEW THEORY TIME
okay, so I was thining about LBD'S line where she goes "[monkey king] picked the Wrong Successor" and how ironic it is in context of season 4, because Wukong Literally could not have picked a BETTER SUCCESSOR. Like, they are literally cut from the same stone! What better successor than someone who literally came from the same source?
And then I was thinking, what if she Knew that and still said it? (She was messing with his head after all, so why not).
Also remember that line she said at the end of season 3? I can't remeber the exact phrase but it was something like "I will not be stopped by a bunch of simians!" EDIT: the line is "I will not be undone by a troop of head strong simians!" When referring to Monkey King, Macaque, And MK.
And I think we as a fandom wondered why she said that. Did she call them that because it was just easier to say than saying 2 simians and a human? Did she just group him into that title because he's the "monkie" kid? Was she actually just referring to Wukong and Macaque?
Or did she Know?
And how/why would she know?
Well
What if, The (not) Mayor made Mk?
Hear me out!
Why? You ask.
To get the powers of the Monkey King without actually having to mess with the Monkey King.
Ya know that theory that Mk was needed to like, Power the skeleton key (because why else would the mayor give it to MK instead of just using it himself or getting to the Bull family right away) before the Bone Spirit could be realeased? (I'll try to find the post later)
Well if we go with that theory, and going with the reason being that they need Monkey King's power because he was One of the People who sealed her away... Obviously Wukong isnt going to help release her. So how else can the get his power?
ALSO, even if the key thing isnt true, They would have needed to steal wukong's powers to power up the mech. But also, the staff was shown that it was also needed as one of the items to make the mech. But before Mk came along (and Red Son building the gauntlet), the staff was still being used to lock up DBK.
So if at the very least, all they wanted to do was get the staff. They'd have to find someone who could actually lift it.
Monkey king isnt just going to lift the staff for them and hand it over. Also not just going to hand over his powers to one of his worst enemies. And they cant just fight him either. He's too strong. (Even if they were able to find him after he dissapeared for 500 years)
BUT
Make a NEW monkey from his stone? One who has all the potential of the original sun wukong but can be molded into whatever they want?
It's the perfect plan.
The Mayor just uses his power to make a new monkey from the old stone.
Excpet immediately after making the new moneky…. it flipping dissapear and it's not until like 15 years later when some kid with wukong's staff starts fighting demons that he figures out where the child went. (And realize they can finally enact the plan! Get him to use the key so they can unlock the tomb, and then the rest of destiny can be fulfilled)
It also explains why LBD has such an effect on MK! Like. The mayor has powers through the white bone spirit. So if some of that power was also like, fed into MK during his creation? It might be why he's so affected by her and grabs his head and looks like he's in pain so often.
Also (and this might just be a stylistic choice of the animation crew) the ink demon when it talks to MK has that bluish glow for outlines. It gave me LBD vibes. So what if it looks like that because of the power used to make Mk?
Maybe it's something maybe it's not.
But how convenient it is to have a vessel of the Monkey King's power with out having to actually deal with the Monkey King?

I have a half baked idea for a fic that came to me in part from a dream i had last night where the LOSH cartoon got a season three and the first episode was Brainy rejoining the legion and Lyle becoming part of the team.
But he's not an ally at first and he is instead antagonising the legion on orders from earthgov because they dont want Brainy joining the legion again after the brainiac incident.
Lyle hacks computo in order to poison their mainframe and their ship, sabotaging them and leaving them stranded in the middle of space, preventing them from reaching home base with Brainy. The name Invisible Kid was the name of the virus he infected the computer with.
And at first they didn't realize he was on the ship with them until one of them spots him before he can go invisible again. They try to scan the ship for him expecting to catch at least a heartbeat or heat signature but realize he can't be picked up by any of their sensors so they have to go manually looking for him.
They eventually beat him, but not after he deals significant damage to the ship. At first he won't talk, but he ends up cracking and they find out he's not doing this of his free will and that earthgov are using his siblings against him as leverage (they were random siblings in my dream but I imagine its Jacques and Danielle).
The legion offer to help him and in return he helps fix the damage he did. I woke up soon after that but ideally, they save his siblings, convince him to join the legion because of his skills and his and Brainy's rivalry starts.
His outfit was also literally just an all black body suit with a black mask that covered his whole face and a hood. Total overkill.
