Nearly everything that Slash does is just something Clear Sky did. The only difference is that the narrative is arbitrarily concluding that Clear Sky's behavior was all totally excusable and understandable because of good intentions (which he does not actually have anyway) whereas Slash is pure evil.
Steals prey and land
Brutalizes anyone who gets in his way (Clear Sky has a higher body count and Slash never directly murders anyone though)
Rules group through fear and intense control
Orders gladiator-style public "training" sessions where they all fight with claws out
Smacking children (Alder, Fern Leaf)
Hand-feeds subordinates so they can control exactly what they eat
Allows big piles of food to start rotting in camp
Throws a subordinate in front of a predator (Thunder with a fox, Beech with a dog)
Threats of violence and general assault (Clear Sky is CONSTANTLY hitting women who offend him)
Didn't give proper burials to victims (Clear Sky was going to leave all the dead bodies of his cats behind at the First Battle and left Misty's corpse to rot after taking her children, Slash had his dead underlings brought to the dump)
Clear Sky's fridged wife comes out of the sky to coo that his behavior "never drove anyone away" while Slash is here DOING THE BEHAVIOR that apparently "never drove anyone away."
They tried so hard to make a villain worse than Clear Sky to make him look better in comparison but physically couldn't. He was that bad.

I feel like we are sleeping on Ronal's eventual blow up at Norm when she learns that he (according to the comics) actually became an adoptive/foster dad to some na'vi kids.
He could do it for them, but not Spider???
she would be so pissed, it would take an army to keep her from killing him. she understand from what spider told her that he helped a bit, but that he was never norms kid.
she just can't understand how he could raise multiple na'vi children, but couldn't see that spider was being neglected and needed someone to intervene and act in his best interest.
she hates when they try and argue that spider wanted to be with the sully's and that norm thought it was best; cause spider was a child, he didn't know what was best for him, norm was an adult, he should have seen that spider needed more then he was being given. he should have stepped in so spider didn't have to live with all this pain and trauma now.
An adult acts against a childs wants if it is in their best interest, there is no argument to that. she will never forgive him for letting spider get hurt, for letting him get neglected for 16 years.

entirely very canon reason Draxum wasn't in the ROTTMNT movie:
The turtles would have mentioned mystic shit and Krang and Draxum would have been like "OH, T H E S E MOTHERFUCKERS" and found a way to banish them all back in half the time it took the gang

Guys.
Y’all.
I…
I just. I just… i have discovered something. And I have laughed too much. I have laughed every time I have tried to explain it to someone. I cannot get through this.
Look. Okay.
There are two things you need to know, here.
First: There’s a style of Greek pottery that was popular during the Hellenic period, for which most of the surviving examples are from southern Italy. We call them ‘fish plates’ because, well, they’re plates, and they’re decorated with fish (and other marine life).
Like this one, currently in the Met:
Or this one, currently in the Cleveland Museum of Art:
They’re very cool. We’re not 100% sure what they were for, because most of the surviving ones were found as grave goods, but that’s a different post.
The second thing you need to know is that when we (Classics/archaeology/whatever as a discipline) have a collection of artefacts, like vases, sculptures, paintings, etc. and we do not know the name of the artist, but we’re pretty sure one artist made X, Y and Z artefacts, we come up with a name for that artist. There are a whole bunch of things that could be the source for the name, e.g. where we found most of their work (The Dipylon Master) or the potter with whom they worked (the Amasis Painter), a favourite theme (The Athena Painter), the Museum that ended up with the most famous thing they did (The Berlin Painter) or a notable aspect of their style. Like, say, The Eyebrow Painter.
Guess what kind of pottery the Eyebrow Painter made?
