huey got too stubborn on his scrooge birthday party

Louie did got that scrooge hated it and wasn't happy but it seems huey didn't wanted to listen at that point and still wanted to keep the party going, even if scrooge wasn't having a good time and made it as obvious as he could (from huey perspective it is making something for scrooge given what he did for them but I don't think it was that good of an end, even webby was skeptical on the idea and beakley warned the boys too).

red flags on the starship troopers movie society I noticed on my first watch of the 1st movie

Actually quite enjoyed it while treating it as a satire/in universe propaganda movie , there's quite a few red flags beside the aesthetic in the society of starship trooper, the training are VERRY violent and can be pretty lethal , violence itself is glorified in this society too, just look per example at the spot with the kids and the ammo , and maybe it's me but I also felt in universe, there could be a "sacrifice one self" kind of message too since carmen choose to break up with rico over her career and the death toll could also be spinned in universe.

the finale scene with bradford shows scrooge already saw may and june as part of the familly in a way

Scrooge didn't excluded them when he told bradford he didn't lost to him, even if they didn't tok part in the group hug (might not be their thing and they might not be sure at that point they'd be forgiven over the fowl stuff too), I do think scrooge will bond with them post finale and he can also see them as his daughters in a way, they also got his dna since webby was made using his dna and their bond can become strong in the future , scrooge also was carrying more than one life jacket, meaning he was in a way being overprotective of them and the rest of the kids too since huey didn't took it as him just overprotecting webby as well.

why are some reform voters this fine with farage being corrupt?

One would think normally a candidate being corrupt mean they shouldn't get a vote , but apparently the reform voters I've talked to onlien are fine with this? why? why is it this ok for farage to be corrupt and why woudl anyone trust him on immmigration after that when he's already proven corrupt , meaning he can be influenced? is it because they fixate on immigration and don't care about anything else even tho ti's improtant issues? I also find it pretty hypocrite when said voters call out the other parties for being corrupt but then proceed to be fine with their guy doing it, sound verry maga to me.

was donald already super popular in the 1940'?

I ask because I noticed a bunch of planes during ww2 were already using him as an insignia (I saw a bloch 151 using him per example, as well as a P51D I plan to do in model, bernard dupérier also used him on his spitfire), the popular characters also often get picked for insignia, snow white and seven dwarfs could appear as well as bugs bunny.

why is mearsheimer such a putin useful idiot now?

I gueninely don't get those academics who decided to die on the hill of the war in ukraine by believing or repeating pro russia rhetoric, mearsheimer is also on the 'all is lost for ukraine" kind of take and I notice he only apply his theory to russia in a way because if it's applied to ukraine, then it'd make sence for ukraine to noot want to be in russia sphere of influence since putin deny ukraine sovereignty.

don't call everything you dislike AI

You can just say you dislike it, especially when there's no proof that it is AI. One can say they dislike G6 without calling it AI slop, I do think one also need actual evidence it's AI before calling it that.

the last crash really shows scrooge overconfidence

At least at that point of the story, it's still the overconfident scrooge who think that because he is scrooge mcduck, he can still make it work , even after he crashed the plane right after saying it'd not be so hard if launchpad can do it. I can get beakley being worried over the kids safety with the plane given how often it crash, even if everyone make it out and scrooge would keep them safe, the plane itself is not exactly the safest place.

the rhetoric of people who defend israel sound a lot like those who defend russia

Both use the human shield argument to justify bombing civilian, russia when they reduced mariupol to rubble would claim azov was using ukrainian civilian as shield and israel did the same kind of claim using hamas and both also do justify ethnic cleasing (deporting ukrainian children by saying they need to be evacuated , same with palestinian when it's not just that that's going to happen). The denial of the war crimes or genocide commited too ,coupled with disinformation usually (per example, the unicef thing that pro israeli use to deny famine in gaza, when even if it's slightly better now, gazan still get bombed and displaced and the risk of famine still exist+the situation could still have been a famine before that report was out , it'd be like saying the holodomor didn't happened because things got better when it did actually happened).

why do people believe europe was the warmongering one on ukraine?

Beside them believing russia propaganda, it feels more like some european politician also enabled putin or had a good relation with him (chirac in france per example or sarkozy converting to being pro russia and germany also has its share of pro russian politician), france and germany were also opposed to ukraine and georgia joining nato so if nato goal was to expand to russia borders like pro putin claim then nato could've done it sooner and before crimea got annexed too . I also find the "boris ended peace negociation" take weird because why would ukrainian keep negociating after they discovered bucha per example or russia kept demanding too much.

scrooge also care about duckburg

I reccall magica specifically called scrooge's precious little town in the shadow war and he also specifically engage gizmoduck to protect it , he also pay for the damages his adventures can cause by accident, I'd say scrooge definitly care about it , even if he can be cheap due to him not being in spending money. Passt scrooge maybe not as much since this scrooge didn't had his familly to help him get better but the present day one defintly does care about duckburg I think.

when people relativize pro russian propagandist

This is something I notice whenever the debate over banning pro russian propagandist pop up, there's always someone saying they're just saying a different opinion, when if one is repeating words for words the kremlin narrative, no it's not just a different opinion, it is helping russia colonizing ukraine and justifying it , in the case of federova per example, she wasn't just criticizing ukraine in good faith, she was a pro russian propagandist . Also, I don't think freedom of speech automatically mean it's ok to disinform other without being at least contradicted, if one want to interview lavrov , then provide a counter point of view, not just his.

Even if the boys bicker at times,they still care a lot for each other

It's pretty visible with louie in the ducktales 17 finale , before he was complaining about huey ruining his thing but in the finale, him and dewey use the jwg to find him (and that's also how they know he's gone since huey wouldn't have gone without it), they also still got back together afterdewey hided the whole della stuff from huey and louie and it doesn't look like the kids are still mad at louie over timephoon too in glomtales.

I don't get why people like mendel decided to turn pro russia

https://kyivindependent.com/ex-zelensky-spokesperson-iuliia-mendel-sparks-outrage-after-tucker-carlson-interview/ it's so weird to me that she decided to die on this hill because one can pretty easily criticize zelensky without being pro russia , mendel also use the falalcy of zelensky critics being labelled pro russia when it's not that hard to not repeat russia rhetoric , one should be warry of people who talk about ukraine problems only to use them for russian propaganda rather than helping solve them

may and june arc could've been about them fitting in the familly

If ducktales did a sequel comics per example, they got a whole lot of story possibilities and for those 20, it could be about fitting in in their new familly, they'll haave to bond with the other and learn to work with webby too, may and june might be used working together, but not with webby and webby need to learn to know them more outside of fowl too , there could also be a scrooge part with him taking them in as well and maybe allowing them to call him dad since with their webby dna, they have his too and they can form an actual bond. Their dynamics with hdl , lena and violet could've been interesting to see too and how the boys adjust to having a girl triplet around.

whhy whenever the us does a bad action against a dictatorship do tankies immediatly act like the dictator did nothing wrong

The us is bad yes but them doing something bad,w ar crimes or imperialism doesn't automatically mean the crimes of dictators should be denied , in saddam hussein case, yes what the us did in iraq was bad and they sued a lie to invade but that doesn't mean saddam didn't commited any crimes.

testimony of a ukrainian who lived under occupation

https://youtu.be/pdCwslqd-EA

A reason why I feel people who want peace to the point of giving up those under occupation aren't right since russia isn't going to protect them, they'll still oppress them, russify them or mobilize them.

I feel there's a bit of a "twilight can do no wrong" kind of mentality at times

Especially regarding her crash out, even when twillight herself recognize she was wrong (in the movie per example, even if her motive was saving equestria, she was using her friends without telling them, them messing up doesn't make it ok for twilight to do that), the canterlot wedding is another example, I think the context of when twilight accuse fake cadence of being evil didn't helped her case with ehr friends, they were in the middle of a rehearsal and twilight barge in yelling at fake cadence how evil she is without proof since shining could explain the spell, here she come out more as a jerk from her friends pov than anything else so why should they trust her at that point .

people can be too doomery on their headcanon

And in my opinion, this can easily taint someone criticism when the person start using their own headcanon to justify why something is bad when it might not be where the authors would've gone and the headcanon can also contradict the tone of the actual media (or be character bashing, doomery headcanon are too often associated with that I noticed).

I think headcanon or not liking something is fine but headcanon do need to fit the actual tone of media or whaat's happening on screen for them to work (or else other cna wonder if they watched the same thing as that person, this does happen to me when I gueninely wonder how people managed to get a character having a bad future from a positive ending and the character being blunt on having a good future rather than regressing). If the ending is obviously happy then I won't automatically go with "this character will suffer or have a bad parent/life after the media ended", if I dislike an ending, I'll just say that I dislike it, I'm not going to use weird headcanon to justify my dislike.

I hate when hamas is used to diminish palestinian suffering

This is a rhetoric I've seen a lot from the pro israeli side (and a bunch of them remind me of how russia justify its bombings too) when hamas being bad doesn't mean it's ok for israel to commit its own genocide/war crimes and do colonialism or that haamas should be used to say palestinian aren't suffering or diminish their suffering by denying it (the staged atrocity rhetoric remind me of how russia decided to report on bucha too).
