    Freedom of choice does not preclude you from being called out for making shitty choices dumb dumb.

    Posting a photo is not stealing, what dumb takes you have friend. Look up ‘fair use’ and that should help you understand that.

    Also, just, idk, what even is this argument? Choices can’t be made in a vacuum and choices can’t be forced on people are not antithetical to shitty choices being shitty choices.

    Maybe not deluded but definitely taking a moral high ground so high you can see straight up their whole ass.

    To be clear, not arguing for slavery. Just pointing out that comparing human bondage and enslavement to animal domestication, is incredibly demeaning and dehumanizing to those enslaved people’s.









  • The designs chosen for alien characters are based on the limitations and of the technology of their time, not just creative wants. You know why Klingons were so hairy up till disco? Because wigs were cheaper and look better on camera than full body prosthetics did. Remember the fish heads?

    But now they have a lot better prosthetic technology so let’s reinterpret the designs for this new show. We can maintain the characteristics from the text but we can also change the things we did because they were more practical then.

    But then we get to your last paragraph and you completely lose me. How you made that jump from what I said is just, bravo. 👏🏻 that’s some fancy gymnastics right there. Again, people who can’t understand that stories produced in live action actually have to exist in reality and make choices for practical and not just creative reasons are absolutely insufferable.
