#its the exact same thing

for the love of god as someone who has studied international humanitarian law for the last 5 years. I BEG of you, naruto fandom, to stop throwing around words like war crimes and genocide like it means nothing. and PLEASE stop directly applying real world standards onto the systems created in the Naruto universe. I'm not saying don't compare them at all, but please recognise that the Naruto universe very much have their own established systems with their own laws and standards that are not a perfect parallel to our world. and it's for this reason that you cannot hold the Naruto universe to the same standards you hold in the real world.
criticism and comparisons are good, absolutely, but recognise that there are different standards, particularly when it comes to morality, that are established in-universe. and finally, PLEASE understand that some of the things you argue in absolutes are things that continue to be debated even in the real world in the first place! some of the standards and morals that you hold the Naruto universe to aren't even fully agreed on in real life. please just recognise all these nuances and differences when you want to make a meta about the Shinobi system by applying real world standards.
keep writing up metas about the Shinobi world and keep comparing it to the real world and critiquing and analysing and dismantling what it is. but please just be a bit more careful and nuanced when you directly critique and interpret naruto using real world standards and logic. it is important to acknowledge that there are different lenses you can view media through, and that our morals and standards just happen to be one lens. it is far more interesting anyway to critique and find fault with the shinobi system through its own logic and by following its own universe's rule.
#OBVIOUSLY im not saying comparisons are not allowed#or that just because something is true in-universe that it must be accepted#like the shinobi system is extremely flawed and very very interesting to critique and analyse#but just. be careful when making such criticisms#you need to look at it in different lenses#and acknowledge that its a different world and system from our own#the arguments become far more interesting anyway when you dismantle their system with their own in-universe laws morals and logic#most of all im just so so so sick of seeing wild takes#concerning war crimes genocide child soldiers fascism etc#as an international law student... im so tired#please spare my sanity a little#its like when history teachers tell you not to apply present standards of morality onto historical events and actions#its the exact same thing#the hague convention doesnt exist in the naruto universe how the fuck can any of our war crimes apply to them#“its based on imperial japan” guess what the hague convention didnt exist then either#im so tired#rant#nart#naruto#naruto fandom#meta#anyway contrary to all the above i actually greatly enjoy reading any meta and posts diving into naruto politics and morals#its because such topics interests me so much that i feel so strongly about things like this

a BIG part of the lore of Dungeon Meshi is how ageism is bad. About how the long lived races treat the young lived races like children and thus infantilize them and do not show them the respect and understanding they deserve simply because of their looks or short life spans.
Whether its because to them they look like children in their eyes (like half foots and gnomes) or because the adult ages of the younger lived races are still in the child ages for the longer lived ones and so they get treated/viewed as children (we see otta receive comments about getting with minors when in reality she dated adult half foot women. so we already see this view towards things like this are a thing in the lore)
We see this with chilchuck, senshi, and marcille where the two later view chilchuck as a child and treat him like one even though he is a full grown man who drinks (and is supposed to have grey hairs) all because he looks young and in the newest episode its revealed he is 29 which is still young children to the two of them.
We see how perspectives that characters are children because of their age being a childs age for a different race as opposed to their race or because they look like children is a completely infantilizing and disrespectful behavior that causes so many problems in the long run.
a theme that is completely flying over the average tumblr users head.
ive seen people get furious at other people because they sexualize chilchuck and even marcille
“oh they look like kids so dont do that you freak”
you absolute fool you missed a major theme of the fucking story. But because they look young suddenly they are children? have you paid no attention to the story? did you just ignore how the ageisim and weird mindset about ages like that causes so many issues that could easily have been avoided.
and as for the age one i see people getting furious at others for being into and sexualizing izutsumi even though she is a year past adult in tall man years, but because she isnt in the adult age range in real life (wild your applying real life society standards to a fictional medieval fantasy world). even though even in lore she would be well an adult able to get married and everything
tumblr really does have the media literacy of a toddler.
#dungeon meshi#idiots your missing a major theme in the story oh my god#its litterally just marcille saying chilchuck is a kid because to elves 29 is considered a child#even though he isnt an elf and is a half foot and so the mans dam near middle aged#but because 29 is a child in elf years she treats him like a child.#same thing with izutsumi#16 years is adult for tallmen and since she is 17 she is an adult#but because that isnt adult in real life human years (wild your applying real life shit to a fantasy world but whatever)#people get in a frenzied about people thinking she is attractive#like congrats your litterally just doing the exact same thing as the elves in the story do#like you have just completely ignored the lesson#chilchuck#marcille#senshi#izutsumi

There's something in Finn wolfhard being a breakout star in s1 and humongous names like Steven Spielberg saying that the kids changed the limitations of child acting bc they're so good. And then suddenly Finn wolfhard after S4 being known generally as the worst one, as the guy who can't act, just "not as good" as everyone else. Because of the monologue. The monologue the writers praised and hyped up as his best work, as something they didn't know if he could do bc he hadn't ever done it before, generally something they were really proud of.
So, if his supposed "best work" is something that people come away from feeling like it's his worst? That means there's a disconnect in the way the writers are looking at the scene vs the way the general audience sees it, which is funny bc if we look at that scene at face value, he's confessing his love. So if theres something deeper about the scene that changes the meaning, that changes that scene from bad acting to great acting, from a love confession to...
#byler#especially bc his s2 shed scene monologue is basically the exact same concept if you look at them at face value.#he HAS done an emotional speech before. why would they be unsure if he could do it again?#this has been in my drafts 4fuckingever so im letting it breach containment omg everyone look out its an old take !!!#stranger things#mike wheeler#finn wolfhard

found an unfinished animatic for the season 9 first day, ✨hweat shenanigans✨ that i started a year ago ( o_o wdym a year ago ) And i kinda can't finish it now, so here you go!
yes, thats a horse head, its essential
also have a meme
i did a high resolution version as well but then i remembered why i wanted to do the animatic in the first place... and it's for that moment when a goofy looking horse cuboid head stares at you with its nose and you can't even see it's eyes
#i discovered it when i was scrolling through my internetless phone xD#boredom sure does things man#can't believe i still had that same palette saved in the programm! that was a saviour#could've been nicer if i found it two months ago for the anniversary right? xD sweet#it IS 15 pieces to be exact. good job younger me👍🏼#alright its tagging time#stressmonster101#docm77#additional keralis false and ren#and hidden iskall and cub#hermicraft#hermitcraft s9#artstump

adhd is when you shoot for the moon but you forgot the rocket fuel and by the time you realize it everyones already on the moon and then you panic and crash into the sun and it explodes
#my meds stopped working and i didnt know thats something that can fucking happen apparently???#like i knew eventually my body can get used to medicine that the effect kind of dulls but for some reason this time around i thought#that my body just decided to become lazier since the meds were already working anyway. cuz thats the thing as soon as smth is made#easier for me even if its the thing thats supposed to make the disability less disabling i get too relaxed and end up fucking up anyway#so i assumed my fucking cells worked the same way LMAO. they still technically work like i can feel my energy spike when it kicks in#but everything else like focus and memory went down and i thought oh so its just a me problem then. my habits are getting worse#even though ive been doing everything the same like setting reminders checking my schedule. hell ive been setting MORE reminders#to make up for the memory thing and i didnt even realize i just knew i had to compensate since it feels like my memory is getting#worse again. and i only figured this out bc my brother showed me an icecreamsandwich video with him talking about the EXACT FUCKING#THING IM GOING THRU WORD FOR WORD#i have to bring this up with my doctor next week so maybe i have to take different meds. i wonder if this will be a recurring thing#i guess one thing that hasnt changed is that im still slow as hell and stuff only comes to me 5 hours after the fact#its 6 in the morning and i only JUST realized that the word froyo is probably short for frozen yogurt#yapping#adhd

You cannot tell me that Simon 'twisted samurai' Blackquill, LA's resident vaguely british man and total weeb with a special interest in swords, would not recognize Karuma on sight. I just imagine that Phoenix has it displayed in his office because of its historical and specifically lawyer-related significance and Blackquill comes in because he lost the rock-paper-scissors match against the other prosecutors to run their errands for the day and he sees that katana and has an autism moment.
There's also the lore behind the von Karma name that makes the idea that Phoenix ends up with the Asogi clan's heirloom very funny to me.
#I think blackquill has a Moment when he learns that Phoenix's japanese/ birth name is Naruhodo Ryuichi#because he would be the exact kind of person to know who those people are#at first franziska is so mad about the whole thing but then she thinks its really funny when she applies it to her father#the heir to the asogi clan legacy named 'karma' takes down the pinnacle of the family that named itself after that same object#simon blackquill#phoenix wright#asoryuu#its implied lol#they were just really good friends#ryuu was just entrusted with the asogi family heirloom for completely straight reasons#he passed it though his own family because they were buddies

Keep scrolling if you blame Spider
Spider, who is literally still a child by human standards.
Spider, who never gave away Jake's or the Omatikaya's location.
Spider, who cares about the Sullys' safety over his own.
Spider, who didn't want any blood on his hands or a guilty conscience if he left someone to die.
Spider, who just didn't want anyone else to get hurt.
Spider, who never betrayed the Na'vi (unlike Jake but hey, who's counting that, right?)
Spider, who had to fend for himself to survive the toughest events because he didn't have an adult who would tear the world apart for him like the Sully children do.
Spider, who loves Pandora and Eywa.
Spider, who just wanted to be one of Her children because he never knew what it was like for a mother to love him.
Spider, who probably understands Eywa's whole "balance of life" meaning more than others.
Spider, who already lost Neteyam but he couldn't afford to lose anyone else in his life, no matter how terrible they are as a person.
Spider, who helped Jake save Kiri and Tuk when everyone else was still too shocked to move.
Spider, who chose mercy over violence/death.
Spider, who did what he could to survive (I'd like to see how YOU would react under such pressure. It all seems obvious and easy watching from the other side of the screen, right?)
Spider, who was likely being misled, brainwashed, and gaslit by the Recoms.
Spider, who is clearly a victim but hey, let's blame him for simply being a decent human being, right?
Spider, who likely thought he owed Quaritch after he saved him from being tortured.
Spider, who likely thought he owed Quaritch for giving him life.
Spider, who just wanted a father who was proud of him.
Spider, who has been clearly neglected by the heroes (Jake and Neytiri) but doesn't openly or verbally blame them.
Spider, who doesn't purposely threaten children's lives like Quaritch and Neytiri do.
Spider, who just wanted to be one of the People.
Spider, who wouldn't have made those difficult choices had he been properly loved and raised.
Spider, who is as easy to blame as Lo'ak for endangering the people they love (but again, no one's counting, right?)
Spider, who is clearly not a villain, just misunderstood.
Spider, who wasn't raised by the village but didn't burn it down to feel its warmth because he's not petty, not vindictive, not evil, and not a killer.
Spider, who is. A. Child.
#i am sick of seeing the exact same comments on tiktok#sick and tired of always see “its spiders fault”#like what???#no one blames jake for betraying the na'vi but think what he did was better than what spider did#thats fucking crazy#ppl holding the labeled heroes up on a pedestal but forget that spider was literally the one who sunk that ship#ppl praising jake and neytiri for the same things they blame spider for#i hope no one is out there bullying jack champion for portraying a fictional character they simply dont like cause “its his fault”#and yes i understand neytiri went through a lot of trauma and pain#that doesnt excuse harming a child to harm his father#neytiri deserves love and support but so does spider#everyone who says otherwise is a hypocrite#neytiri didnt need to have to stoop to quaritch's level and hurt a child but she did#i hope at least kiri holds her accountable in the future because i would resent my mom for hurting someone i loved#spider avatar#atwow spider#spider soccoro#miles spider socorro#avatar 2#avatar the way of water#atwow#avatar 2009#avatar#james cameron avatar#james cameron#miles quaritch#neytiri te tskaha mo'at'ite#jake sully#neytiri sully#no one blames lo'ak for getting his siblings captured BOTH times but ppl will blame spider for letting his father live is crazy

I love how one line tore this fandom apart from it's handsewn stitches that were covering piles of patches of this old holed fabric and just made a gigantic fucking tear right in the middle of it
"Honey I'm home"
Yeah, I'm freaking out, it's very cute, I love it, but lmfao
No I am too tired to process emotion so I am not physically freaking out but it's still dope as shit
#i just saw a post where someone spammed honey im home over a post of another person doing the exact same thing#tbff same#but its still funny#damijon#jon kent#damian wayne#supersons#batman#Robin#i refuse to call jon superboy because i think its unfair with kon#i love them so much but i cant write jon for shit so canon has to cover my fanfiction needs and holly fuck it's doing it#honey im home#honey im fucking home#fuck#enough#i am tired#feeling like tim rn#someone knock me out cold so i can sleep
