The only difference between Obama and Valentine's foreign policy was Valentine didn't have drones to expedite the process

Pomp posted:Building American prosperity on the back of third world suffering has been like every loving president No joke, I really love Steel Ball Run partly because Araki writing an American president that uses the desiccated corpse of Jesus Christ and American Exceptionalism in order to benefit the country at the expense of other nations is one of the most realistic and too close to home parts of it, even if he's being mega-literal and ridiculous about it. I'm not even sure if the people going around like "Valentine is such a good dude even if he's the villain! Best president!" are just memeing it up or if they missed that he's trying to enact a dictatorship, or the implications of him potentially revealing to the public that he has the actual corpse of Jesus and insisting that it chose him and how easily he could create a theocratic state with that. Remember when GWB said that God told him to bomb Iraq?

To be fair the corpse of Jesus did give him super powers, so he fulfilled that campaign promise.

He might, but the part I'm thinking of is when he appears behind Johnny as he's deliberating about shooting Axl, Civil War's Stand user, and says "If your heart is wavering, do not shoot" and then Johnny blasts himself and gets Tusk Act 3 I think

Because people actually believe it. Also, Jesus says Johnny should only pop a cap in that dude's rear end if he's sure about it, none of these wishy washy murders. So he's not really saying do or don't, he's saying do whatever the gently caress you want as long as you're sure.

GimmickMan posted:"Valentine did nothing wrong" is a meme that makes me legit uncomfortable, especially after the last elections. Not to mention that Valentine being a war hero who everyone loves but turns out to be a complete monster and the heroes have a huge disadvantage because everyone loves him is a much more interesting reading than "he did bad things with good intentions tho!" He was willing to have the Worse Dio come in and rule America with an iron fist just to get the last word in. He's a great JoJo villain because a powerful man willing to enact a fascist theocracy and gently caress over other countries for the "good of the nation" could totally be a JoJo Villain. Josuke Higashikata posted:Because people actually believe it. I want to believe it's in the same vein as "Dio did nothing wrong" but, man. :/ That's a really good lesson, though, and I'm glad that Jesus is here to help with one's resolve.

Like Giorno being able to stuff his entire ear into its hole, or Pucci being able to eat 2 cherries connected at the stem and leave the pit attached to the stem

Meme Emulator posted:I realize the point youre trying to make w/r/t the real world, but when there really is actually a magical power granting corpse it changes the script a little bit. That's the point, though. Valentine would have gained way more political power than a U.S. president should have from showing actual evidence that God is granting him the ability to move America towards greatness, more weight that the Catholic church could possibly have. And if that power comes from screwing over other countries, he would have been a massive global threat. More than any other U.S president combined and that's including Trump. The fact that the corpse responds to him because his heart never wavers instead of the morality of his actions makes it worse. It makes his imperialism and fanaticism even more of a threat since he could act on them very easily. My point is more this is what would happen if Bush gained the power of the Corpse and why I don't understand the "Best President!!" memes.  Schwarzwald posted:The President himself says that magic powers are insignificant compared to the political and social power that come through claiming divine right. That's the whole point of the napkin speech. Thank you.

The first premier of the Glorious People's Revolutionary Worker's Democratic Republic of America, Daniel de Leon, wrote often that President Funny Valentine's ability to shotgun beer made him a man among men. Every speech Comrade de Leon made would be preceded by him shotgunning a beer.

http://hiwamatanoboru.com/2018/01/23/jojolion-volume-17/ HWMN put up volume 17 which I'm pointing out because although there are no major changes from the magazine to the volume in the content itself, the volume did have a page about dorefasolati do that was funny to me mainly because of the tail/feet thing https://mangadex.com/chapter/9161/35

Rumours of President Valentine being in ill health are false! Fake news! President Valentine is actually swole! The most swole! The least fat person you'll ever know! Sad! Saying he's fat is what you'd expect out of "Crooked Halloween" voters!

The reveal that Pres. Valentine is swole as hell happening over the course of a diegetic strip show is also one of the best parts of SBR.
