Recently heard about this type of power system a week ago. Honestly it sounds pretty cool. But I still wonder if it's redundant at the same time though. Since what's the point of a Martial Arts power system, when Martial Arts already exist in real-life? Lol.

A pure Martial Art power system is a system that has nothing to do with Chi Energy or any Lifeforce energy. It's basically that the characters are just really good at doing Kung Fu, Karate, or Taekwondo to Anime levels. It's less like a Wuxia story. And more like a Bruce Lee story.

The Cobra Kai show is an example of this. Again the characters are just really good at doing Karate. I wonder if this also a way Writers want to have their cake and eat it too. Have a power system with a basis in reality, while still having the characters pull off superhuman feats.

The best way to describe a power system like this. It's like building a power system off the Marvel character Taskmaster Photographic Reflexes abilities. A system where all the users are Martial Arts prodigies at young ages. To the point the fighters can dominate both MMA and Boxing with ease. Despite MMA and Boxing being different combat sports with different skillsets and training.

In conclusion. It's basically Martial Arts as a superpower.

One example I can think of is collateral damage. Of course collateral damage will be more common due to superhuman battles. But at least the existence of sci-fi level technology can be use to fix the damage more quicker though.

Examples like that. The guy that robbed you. Is also the same guy you have to ask for help to get your stuff back. The robber being an analogy for Superpowers in this scenario.

My point is that the problem is also the solution. If that makes sense. A self-correcting system, where the existence of a problem also creates the incentive.

I know this is a hot take.

But cut bs out here. When it comes to LGBTQ people. MFs on the pro black left have no issues pointing out the differences between black oppression and LGBTQ oppression. Arguing that LGBTQ people should stop using racism towards black people to fight against homophobia. Using examples like black people and trans people not being comparable. Heck people on the Left even point out the differences between the oppression of black people and other minority races.

So I don't understand why we can't point out difference between black people and women. Especially when women make up half of the population. Again I make this point, because a lot of progessive folks actually think black people and women are 100 percent identical. That's how we end up with dumb takes like Lindsay Clancy being compared to George Floyd.

Look here. The power dynamic with race is 100 percent social. While the power dynamic with gender is 100 percent biological. Because men are stronger than women. White people aren't stronger than black people.

That alone proves that there is a huge elephant size of a difference between gender and race. Because an equal society needs technology to close the gaps between men and women. Race doesn't need that, because white supremacy is not built on biology. It's build on social ideas of race.

The physical gap is so important when talking about women's oppression. To the point that gap in strength can even be use to demonize men. Because men will always been seen as threats due this gap in strength. White people never have to worry about being seen as threats due to their skin color. Sure black people are afraid of white people. But that fear is still social though. It has nothing to with physical strength. Hence why men are expected to be protectors, while white people aren't.

So I hate how these liberals always threat race and gender like identical concepts. This isn't even me saying black people or women have it worse on some oppression Olympics type of shit. Im just saying both types of oppression are just different. Like comparing apples to oranges.

Im not saying you can't point out similarities between multiple concepts.. You can find similarities in anything. There are similarities between MMA and Pro Wrestling. There are similarities between the Police and a street gang. There are similarities between a Religion and a cult.

But at the same time though you can't ignore the differences. Especially when those differences are big, and play a huge role what makes a concept/group unique. Play a huge role in their struggles or issues too.

And before you say an analogy doesn't necessarily have to be 1:1, I already know that. I'm not arguing that race and gender are completely unrelated or that every aspect has to line up perfectly. I'm saying that when the differences between two concepts are major and directly affect the issues being discussed, you can't just ignore those differences. An analogy can highlight similarities while still acknowledging that the two things are fundamentally different in important ways.

Whether it's beef or a partnership.

I ask this question. Because as a outsider looking in. Street gangs, Drug Cartels, Mafias, and 1 percent Motorcycle Clubs seem like 4 separate universes.

I can't imagine a Mafia operating in the same city as reckless teenagers who are members of street gangs. How does the organization coexist with the unorganization?

The video is awful. The comments are awful. I hate how society forced men to identify with rapists. The left will never do this with race. No matter how dangerous gang violence get in the black community. You can use Terrorist groups and Drug Cartels as examples here too.

It's like the Left wants all men to see themselves in Rapists. This why the Left will always fail with young men. This why is Left ironically becomes the strongest propaganda tool for the Manosphere. The red-pill exists because of this mindset on the Left in thw first place.

I hope he has this same energy when feminists are complaining about men asking for consent too much.

7:26 Sounds like toxic masculinity BS. this is something Andrew Tate would say. This mindset brings young men back to square one. It's not a solution. Just more be a "real man" or "positive masculinity" BS.

10:21 Bullshit. Men even spend their whole lives in prison over allegations.

​​​This comment section was being obtuse on purpose.

Men and women are expected to play this stupid cat and mouse game in society, where women pretend to play coy, and act like they don't like sex. And have to be convinced they want sex by men. This something feminists and this YouTuber here leave out on purpose, when it comes to consent conversation.

I freaking guarantee you. The people in this comment section contribute to this cat and mouse game too. And will still want to uphold this status quo (i.e. male gender roles), while still demonizing men for not understanding consent. Therefore putting men in a double bind in society.

Ironically the voice memo guy was doing the exact thing they wanted. But they still have a issue with it though. Therefore exposing their cognitive dissonance about consent.

My friend told me that, this wouldn't matter. Because the whole point of superpowers existing, is that powers make every place dangerous. He also said that Detroit and Beverly Hills would have the same level of danger in a superhero world. Basically saying that the whole world would be Gotham City or Marvel's New York.

I have four power sources in my world. Im going to be vague about all 4, since I don't want this post to be too long and take away from the title question. So the superpowers in my world come from diverse mutations, energy constructs from an object, nanotech based cybernetics, and photographic reflexes. The names for the power source users are Mutates, Cosmic Users, Cyborgs, and Adepts.

One of the biggest world-building affects in my world when it comes to crime. Is that street-gangs in first world countries are far more violent. Very brutal like the Drug Cartels. Whether it gang members having deadly individuals that are Mutates or Adepts who become hitmen for gangs. Or having access to cybernetics or cosmic objects. But for those last two, people need knowledge, resources, or wealth in order to get access to cybernetics or cosmic objects though.

But the gangs are more bold, doing hits in broad daylight, in front of Police stations. Making sure to sent a message to rivals or Law Enforcement with their hits. For example, having numerous bodies lay across the train tracks as way to intimidate enemies.

To get back to the title question. Im still trying to figure if I want this level of violence to be equal in all cities or countries. Or still have cities or countries that are safer than others.

And also a lot first world countries are melting pots. Combined that with superpowers. You have a version of the United States that has criminal organizations from most countries on the planet.

Since superpowers make it very easy for a foreign criminal organization to set up shop in a different country. Therefore this creates a lot of competition in my world.

People often use this as an excuse to explain why women can hurt men or be violent. Because they are less stronger. When in reality most serial killers weren't these scary looking MMA Fighters or Bodybuilders. Heck most men that run the world look the stereotypical nerd. And even the men on men violent is mostly gang related, not always two drunk idiots fighting at a bar.

Some Liberals would rather you believe men on men violence is mostly due to men fighting bars or after sport games. Than the obvious fact that most of it is gang related. But for some reason that's a bad thing to say though.

And gang violence includes guns, not fists. When goes back to my point. Physicality means nothing in a world with weapons. Because women and children can use guns or knives too.

Sorry guys, white washed was the only term I could've think of here.

But anyways. It's so common for my fellow Nihilists to say they are optimistic Nihilists. Meaning they can make up whatever meaning they want for the universe or life. On the surface sure nothing is wrong with being a optimistic Nihilist. But It does comes off as a Nihilist trying to please people though. Like "Wait I don't want you to think im some type of dark weirdo. So Im going to try to disneyified my world-view to make you feel comfortable."

“Nothing has objective meaning, but don't worry! Everything is beautiful and you can create your own meaning!”

At that point, you can reasonably ask whether they're actually confronting nihilism or simply replacing objective cosmic meaning with a more psychologically comfortable version of meaning.

We are dealing with people who think their deaths will leave legacies behind here. The human ego is so big, it's bigger than the universe itself. You are just so important, that the whole world will remember you after you die. It's like those High School kids who want leave a mark on their school, after they leave. But in reality most students don't give a shit about your mark. You are just a random picture on the wall LMAO.

Similar to how the world will just move on after you die. No Heaven, no Hell, no 4th Dimension BS, or nonsense like energy becoming one with everyone who has died before. What happens after death is that a baby will walk for the first time. A 16 year-old will drive for the first time. An 18 year-old will finally moved out of their parents house. Someone gets their first job, somebody eats breakfast, somebody takes a shit, etc. Again like I said. The world will moved on.

Energy can be neither created or destroyed is one of my favorite phases. Because every new age, woo woo, crystal hippie uses that phrase too. Im talking about the people who are not religious, but are still “spiritual” though. Because they can’t stand the existential harshness of an indifferent , unfeeling reality.

My point here in this post. Is that people are grown-ass adults. They should be able to handle a perceptive where the universe doesn't give a shit about them.

3:35 mark: Like just imagine Lil Durk coming out with a "I got away with it" album.

"Murder-for-hire case on the federal registry They said, “You sent them flights,” I said, “That's economy” They said, “Whose card?” I said, “Don't ask me financially”

Similar to the Fire Force Anime or the Deadman Wonderland Anime. Where the characters can basically do anything with fire or blood.

I would imagine MHA would have this too, but on steroids times 1 million though. Because of broad the power system is. could be wrong here. But I don't see nothing in this universe that suggest certain Quirks have limitations though.

For example, a character using electricity to control minds. Or a character using water to boost their strength. Or even character using technopathy to manipulate music sounds like The Music Misterrrrrr 🎶.

So MHA power system is basically just the X-Men.

Rappers like Xxxtentacion, Trippie Red, Ski Mask, Bones, were major players for this genre.

Zillakami was my favorite before the pedo allegations. Note if Zillakami isn't for everybody. So advise not to search for music on YouTube lol.

But anyways, again what do you guys think of this sub genre of Rap? I remember a lot of Metalheads saying this is not Metal. Rap fans also said this genre wasn't Rap either.

I’m curious because I’ve seen people try to connect the UAP phenomenon to psychic abilities, consciousness, telepathy, and other paranormal phenomena. But I rarely see people discuss UAPs in relation to witchcraft or occult practices.

So has anyone ever seriously tried to connect the UAP phenomenon to witchcraft? And if so, what arguments or theories did they use?

Another question this brings up: what exactly is the difference between psychic abilities and witchcraft? Are they considered completely separate phenomena, or could they potentially overlap depending on the belief system?

Personally. I think the world or humanity is far too chaotic and messy to have a illuminati/satanic/lizard organization existing. For fuck sakes our President is a moron.

I really want to be open minded here. But humanity stupidity has always made it hard for me to wrap my head around "THEY" conversations.

And don't hit me up with the "If I told you their names, I don't think you will sleep well." line.

By Civil War I don't mean the superhuman registration act. I mean it more in a political division sense. Similar to real-life. With half the country fighting each other.

SHTF just means shit hits the fan. It's a prepper term. It's basically will a country just shut down. Like movie Leave The World Behind on Netflix.

The closet thing to this is Marvel zombies. But that event tends to be very gimmicky though. So it hard to imagine how Marvel or DC truly look in a SHTF or Civil War type of situation.

I wonder how the existence of superpowers, magic, and technology would affect these situations.
