Now see, if you succeeded in that, I might not have minded!
Mind you, I'd still have raged with the fury of a thousand suns, but I'd probably have agreed to let you rule on the condition that you guys still paid homage to me. I might even have admitted to some wrong on my part. That or incinerated you.
The only thing I see wrong with that is that I had peaceful intentions for expansion. The first crusade where I took Riat was purely accidental; I didn't mean for any violence to happen. The second was just a revenge thing; after that I was going to focus on making the lives of the Children better, but then Udil backstabbed me for no reason. The only reason I didn't roast him right then was because of that GODDAMNFLURGLEBAGGINGSHITECOOKBANGERFINGE ward that Sapt Golgo laid on him. Muttermuttermuttergoddamnspidermuttermuttermutter

Card has got other problems. Empire, for example, is supposed to focus on how political polarization in general can undo a democracy into an empire, but instead ends up being a right-wing fantasy where good conservative Americans fight the "Progressive Restoration" seeking to destroy the nation with mecha.

Card might have good ideas, but they never make it through his head without going lopsided and terrible.
Oh god I remember that. Ugh.

Ya know if Aure had survived and achieved enough power, he would have devoured and consumed Az-sho. Disillusionment is a bitch.
Why is that?

29284
Nice, micelius! While I can't quite get the image of Aure out of my head, you're quite nice as Lo.

No I said it because of how MOST OF THEIR FREAKING CULTURE IS BASED ON SAID RAPE. AND HOW THE VICTIM OF SAID RAPE BEARS THE 'SHAME' OF IT.
Again, not that different than some human cultures. Actually better than a few. But this is the world we're presented with, and more importantly we're looking at it from the perspective of a Naga. Thus, to be properly IC we can't wipe out our own species on the basis of hating our own cultural practices because those are OUR cultural practices that we don't really see anything wrong with. To do otherwise would be OOC.
And that is very bad.

Ah, that makes sense.

I liked Ender's Game, but whenever I think about it (and by extension, it's author), I get a bad taste in my mouth.

Thankfully I read all the books before I learned anything about Cardy.
What about him?

I'd play, but I've seen what happened to all of the Irony RTDs I've participated in. PTW for now, and if it lasts I'll waitlist.

Oh man I got a phone that can take pictures. ACTUAL pictures. I will upload a picture to celebrate.

Gasp! FFS doesn't actually have LOFACE!
Don't qorry, that's just his mask.

Ender's Game is being made into a movie as we speak. Words cannot express my anticipation.
Yeah!
Wait, that was the book that felt all blurry and had strangely unsatisfying sequels. Eh.

I can't see how any part of what Gwg and Xan are saying counters what I'm saying.
It's implied that it's only justifiable for the Nagas to be wiped out on basis of their Patrons raping other Nagas if I can go out and butcher every last human out there, including you, me, and the families of each.

Humans have done much, much worse IRL. Typically in times of duress, but not always. And let's not get into what individual humans do...
The point is, I can't see the justification for wiping out an entire race for things some of them do.
Apart from for the fun, of course, but that's me.
