Roland Jones posted:(USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST) I mean, the World Government in One Piece is irredeemably corrupt, brutal, and exists solely to prop up a horrifically, maliciously sociopathic aristocracy. And they're the kind of government that would think nothing of creating Impel Down, a turbo-guantanamo for supers except with even more disregard for any notion of human rights and a staff that overtly invokes imagery of Nazi Germany in its stylings Saying "whoa this place is basically Impel Down" is a much more severe condemnation of hero society than you might be realize.

The final page with AfO proclaiming that he'll be the Great Demon Lord is pretty fantastic with him dragging all those life-support machines with him.Scholtz posted:Wow, turns out the unique psychic connection between AfO and Shigaraki has allowed him to no longer be imprisoned.

I know it’s self-centric to ask “but what about ‘MERICA!?” in this comic book about interpreting western tropes through a Japanese lens, but How hosed are the flyover states? Very, or Extremely Very? Are gun’s even more of a thing or have the 2nd Amendment fundies rallied to quirk supremacy? Is President Beyoncé IV prepared to Is the hotdog still $1.50?

The real world solution to moral conundrums like this is and always has been capital punishment. We as a society have just moved away from it toward a more enlightened stance because we don't have bandits, pirates, and raiding armies prancing about the world anymore. Modern day capital punishments are rare and more performative than functional which is why when they so commonly execute an innocent man due to poor evidence it stands out as abhorrent. All for One is no longer a citizen needing to be judicially punished

David is an American who lives on I-Island. It seems mostly fine on the surface.

Fabricated posted:The fun thing about the fantasy/fiction debates over this stuff is that in their worlds it's a genuinely tough question. There's an anime "From the New World" that deals entirely with this concept as it takes place hundreds of years after mankind pretty much all gets psychic powers and how do you control all that?

The idea of Heroes originally started in the US on Rhode Island and there was a large amount of vigilantism at the time. Eventually a tiny fraction of these vigilante's were legitimised purely because they were the most marketable and everyone else became classed as villains as part of widespread quirk usage restrictions. This caused controversy over whether quirk regulation infringed on the second amendment which is still ongoing at the time of the msnga.

"Sir, that's - that's not what that -" "I AM A PATRIOT WHO SUPPORTS THE CONSTITUTION AND I WILL NOT BOW TO TYRANNY REGULATING THE USE OF MY BEAR ARMS!" (On a more serious note, god that is exactly what would happen if people in America started suddenly developing super powers. How dare you try and limit my right to shoot fireballs out of my nose by sneezing??? Who cares that I set some people on fire by doing it in public, that's my god given right as an American! No I will not wear a mask mandated by the DEEP STATE!)

This was at least partly a tongue-in-cheek reference to City of Heroes, which Hori played and takes place in Rhode Island. Also I'm no 2a scholar but I would think the answer at least under current jurisprudence would be pretty uncontroversially "quirks are not 'arms' within the meaning of the second amendment because the closest analogs that existed at the time 2a was passed (...just being really strong?) would not have been considered 'arms.'"

That’s only if you’re using an originalist method of interpreting the Constitution, which was largely on the academic fringe until conservative thinkers used it as a means to justify whatever they wanted. Arms can very reasonably be interpreted to mean natural born super powers

I've heard this before and always wondered what server and how many Hami raids we were side by side killing antibodies. I'm half convinced Gang Orca is a reference to a prominent PC from back in the day but I won't be sure until I see a Taxi-bot cameo.
