Hear me out...“Can you have sex?”
I don’t think it’s a matter of “can” more than it’s a matter of “does the author want to fanservice us with an actual scene or is someone gonna intervene”
How young is she, to be a chancellor?? Like the whole reason y'all made your own country at the end of the world was to avoid being preyed upon. Like you'd have to be delusional or young and not know any better to think it's possible to negotiate with ppl who are marching to kill you.What's that saying? "Every Hole's A Goal"? >_>;
But seriously, these people are so goddamn naive...
yes. as has been demonstrated over and over and over again. they are a country ruled by a corrupt and evil goddess who preaches human supremacy and also might be a golden eyed human faced monster herself. the golden eyed human faced monsters have shown not only intelligence but utter cruelty in their singular goal of wiping all life off the planet.is it only scumbags and a-holes in all of Alion's military regiments?
i'd argue that you have a point if her entire country wasn't founded on the principal that all humans are genocidal monsters and that they sealed themselves away oh so long ago because of it. Literally nothing has changed on the outside world other than humans getting MORE bloodthirsty so you would think the elders who were alive at the time woulda voiced some sort of problem with her naiveteNot all warnings can be trusted, especially when someone is trying to drag you in a war that they want to find. She had a legitimate concern.
The real problem here is that she acted on blind faith; you can't negotiate with someone you don't understand. I mean, her whole plan was: we tell them that we don't want to fight and they'll agree not to attack.
Honestly, I think she's too young, and the society she lives in - closed off, with diverse people living in peace for so long - has given her zero chance to understand what the humans could possibly want. She has no idea why wars happen and she can't even understand the concept of ethnic cleansing. Being ignorant is not a sin, but not when you don't recognise your own ignorance.
Consider also, that she may be the figurehead of this foolish peace plan but the majority of votes went her way, so she wasn't alone in her way of thinking. So yeah, I do think they're all very stupid for this.
So personally, I do have sympathy. I really don't think that was is happening to her should ever happen to anyone. I would also always be careful about blaming the victim.
Also, maybe we weren't shown how the MC argued his case, but what we saw from him was not convincing at all. I am not surprised at all that his warning fell on death ears. Of course, it's not like I expect him to be a skilled orator and debater, but personally I feel like he dropped the ball really hard here. It really isn't that hard to give examples of human wicked acts and to ask: how do you negotiate with people who just want to kill you?
plus hasn't it been kinda implied that the goddess in charge is herself a human faced golden eyed monster? I swear we got like brief glimpses of it.That's like asking if the military leaders of dictatorships support autocracy or democracy. Alion's rule is based on the tyranny of the goddess, discrimination, and militarism. The military naturally needs to support this ideology, lest the order collapses. So, yeah, the soldiers have to be either scumbags or perfectly willing to look the other way when others behave like scumbags.
Some of the posts are definitely pretty openly misogynistic, unsurprising some idiots are always on the lookout for any opportunity to openly attack women without consequences even when the character gender is utterly irrelevant for what is happeningalso the amount of misogyny on display in this particular thread is disturbing.
