I find his movies very enjoyable, but they're like the comedy dialogue/ talky drama equivalent of explosion action. Very popcorn friendly and pretty shallow. They achieve an air of sophistication because they're just talk and emotions but in the end nothing is actually being said. But I like watching them.

By that logic there would be no nazis to begin with.

Are they very "everything is a computer game/mmo"-ish? Has the epidemic of such on fantasy finally passed?

It's why I thought the "layers of canonity" of the old Star Wars Canon was a genius thing. It's one of the few instances of fantom actually understanding the purpose of fiction canons rather than treating them as holy scripture in my opinion.

Doesn't matter what we actually said.  Some people read "fight Nazis" and read "I want to murder you".  It's VERY strange.

No, Max has repeatedly stated that he's entirely and literally for murdering people, and not just saying "fight Nazis". And again, he's not saying "only those who totally is provably aren't nazis in a completely unbiased and just investigation and trial" he is literally saying "anyone who doesn't agree with me is a nazi because the only reason they wouldn't disagree with me is that they are a nazi".

It's you who don't care what actually is being said here.
Big if true.  I do care about what is being said here, and that is Spin accusing me of desiring his murder when what I said is that murderers should be stopped.

No, that's not it. Go back and re-read the context of this argument. You were the one who jumped to defend Max's violence and murderousness, and then you went on about there only being one reason one could want to argue against murdering nazis (being a nazi). You're saying murder is OK, and you're saying he's a person that's OK to murder.

I completely failed, though. Ship-site colony fell to massive tantrums and myrserous moods within days, presumably due to too high expectations or some other issue. I haven't played anything at all with moving colonies in Rimworld, I had made the flawed assumption that if you did their expectations would lower again like they are at colony start but oh well.

Back to an older save it is, and back to the original plan of iust sending a small force first to establish basic essentials before the rest of the colony arrives. I can only hope they don't get raided in forces relative to the full wealth of my faction because that would crush them.

I was going to say, part of the issues I take with Israel's position is their high amount of peace-crimes

Do what?

Beating people up, kicking asses, murdering people, the stuff you're always going on about.
Murdering people? I'm talking about nazis here, not people.
It's funny to me how you agree with Richard Spencer on everything except the correct target.
This is somehow even stupider than bragging about chugging scalding hot drinks (McDonald's is never gonna date you), and infinitely more vile.

Dehumanizing someone for dehumanizing entire classes of people isn't great, but it doesn't make you "just as bad".  Obviously.  Literally the only reason to pretend so is to support genociders.  That's not cancellation or something, that's simply just the only reason to constantly do so.

Wanting to fight members of a genocidal movement isn't bigotry, it's self defense or community defense.  Yes they can deconvert- that's what makes them so horrible for remaining in the movement.  Their victims CAN'T.  So if they're adults and set on that path, they deserve no sympathy.

We can talk about the conditions which lead to them becoming murderous human filth, but that's what they choose to be.

You're literally siding with a murderous bigot here. And Max doesn't "just want to murder nazis" (like that's a non-issue) he wants to murder anyone he thinks is a nazi, which includes me, a max spin, and Hector, simply because we disagree with him about murdering nazis, because the only reason anyone could disagree with him about murdering nazis is if they are a nazi.

Bingle watched Ahsoka. What the hell did they do to Sabine? It is not the character I enjoyed... and even if her going padawan has some potential, her confidently doing a Jedi knight level force push in the end was so out of nowhere.

Also, the only really good part of the series is the new dark Jedi. Everything else is rather - "it's OK I guess."

Who is Sabine again?
