I heard a schizo theory a very long time ago that every Final Fantasy is actually meant to be satirical, and since then it's stuck with me so much that I can't help but feel like there's some truth to it. Please tell me I'm not alone here.
I heard a schizo theory a very long time ago that every Final Fantasy is actually meant to be satirical, and since then it's stuck with me so muc...
If you think there's even one consistent vision across the Final Fantasy series you're a fricking idiot
FF1~10 all have a pretty consistent message about death and loss, just spun in a different flavor each time to varying levels of effectiveness.
FFI is more about very basic vanquishing the darkness, the real innovations it had was having the whole rescue the princess mission being just the prologue and having a crazy-ass time travel twist thrown at the very end.
I'll give you that the other ones have the themes of the meaning of life, coping with the loss of someone you care and similar.
the 1000 year time loop is an allusion to being trapped in reincarnation. There's a reason why it's brought up again and again in the series. 1000 years has a symbolic meaning.
That's Sakaguchi's influence.
Japanese teenager writing just comes off as goofy at times. FF7 borrows heavily from Evangelion (goo lifeforce sea, hero goes comatose, two waifus compete for his attention, Sephiroth, etc). So it's literally anime writing and they were just taking what was popular in anime and then making a game out of it.
Also, wait... Isn't Evangelion a satire of mecha anime? Aren't like, the vast majority of popular anime satirical in some way, at least the ones Westerners like?
>satire
Not really. It combines elements from Ultraman, Ideon, and Devilman into one soup. A lot of reviewers in America aren't aware of any of these, and just compared it to Gundam and Macross since that's all they knew, but Evangelion is barely a mecha series. It subverts expectations and veers off from a monster of the week series into Revelations schizophrenia, so people assumed it was a "deconstruction" of mecha.
It does have some elements of mecha commentary - Asuka is the "hot blooded" young pilot (see where that goes) and Shinji is the young pilot with indecision about whether he should pilot at all or quit (like Amuro in the original Gundam). Both take the opposite ending from the standard mecha series.
>Aren't like, the vast majority of popular anime satirical in some way, at least the ones Westerners like?
Comedy shit, sure. Eva is played mostly straight.
Ever think its weird that Sephiroth comes from israeli Gnostic thought? It's so random right? It's because it's another element lifted from Evangelion, where it's much more natural fit. They likely stole the "timeline" shit fro mthe remakes from the Evangelion Rebuilds.
>Gnosticism
>israeli
kaballah (sephiroth) specifically comes from the talmud, which has it's origins in the 2nd and 3rd Enoch books (which were written by a completely different author from the 1st Enoch btw). They say it comes from the evil Enoch, from the line of Cain, instead of the good Enoch, who was a descendant of Seth.
You mean israeli Mysticism. Gnostics are Christian, kinda.
Okay, so FF7 may or may not be satire, then. That still leaves literally every other game up for grabs.
Final Fantasy has a lot of elements from Norse paganism, but it goes over most Americans heads too despite it being their heritage. They just see the names.
How the frick is Eva a satire? It has every major mecha trope and they're all played straight
Evangelion definitely is a giant mecha deconstruction. Shinji is a weak loser who gets weaker. He's obviously an atypical hero. Don't get me started on Pen Pen
You haven't seen any other mecha anime
>Shinji is a weak loser who gets weaker
Shinji can barely pilot the Eva in the first episode, and is slaying Angels by the mid point. His arc closely mirrors Amuro's who also is filled with despair and even runs away at one point as well.
Satire isn't the right word. It plays with genre conventions, sure. Ditto FF. Satire usually is mean-spirited toward what it satirizes.
This motherfricker doesn't know what satire means
Satire and deconstruction aren’t the same thing, EVA is basically
>yo wait wouldnt these teenage Gundam pilots end up with massive issues
Gundam is already
>yo wait wouldnt these teenage Gundam pilots end up with massive issues
At least the Tomino ones.
>Evangelion
Ok, that explains why this is turning into a convoluted mess
Yes, the remake series is literally modeled after the Rebuilds. it's paintfully idiotic.
>FF7 borrows heavily from Evangelion
No it doesn't. Evangelion aired far too late to have any influence on FF7.
It aired right smack dab in the middle of development. Right when they finish up the story and go into proper production. The game only took like 2-3 years to make.
>biggest piece of Japanese media has Sephirotic tree and Square makes a game about Sephiroth... just because!
>deconstruction
Leftist schizo babble speak. It contains a little subversion of expectations simply because those mecha story beats were cliche so it mixes things up by subverting expectations. It doesn't "deconstruct" mecha because that's stupid. It says very little about mecha.
>Square makes a game about Sephiroth... just because!
Because the name was recycled from Final Fantasy 6, where the Fiend of the Warring Triad was named Sephiroth (Sefilos/Sefiros/Sefiroth) but this detail was never actually depicted in-game until 14.
In Nomura's sketches, he named the goddess of the Triad, Sophia. The goddess is also depicted as the one blessing Kefka in the 3rd tier of the final fight. I just learned that recently actually. I didn't know Nomura knew that much that early on.
Friendly reminder that the etymology of Devil is deconstruction. Leftists worship the devil with or without knowing. Lucifer sets them up for you to hate them and later destroy them so he can turn into an angel of light. It's one big farce and the goal is to make you worship the fake and gay angel of light and his servants of false light righteousness.
Stop making them sound cooler than they really are. It's just some horse shit that Jacques Derrida made up and became vogue in literature classes. They're just over educated gays up their own ass, not bad ass cool super villains.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deconstruction#Not_post-structuralist
Whenever someone discovers or invents something useful for the Cabal, they get pushed. The theory of relativity is full of holes, but the ultimate idea being "everything is relative" is worth pouring billions into CERN. Demon worship is as banal as evil is banal.
>Woah... this paranoid incoherent leftist schizo-babble is wrong. We need to replace it with paranoid incoherent christian schizo-babble. Rambling about Satan is so much more meaningful than ranting about capitalism.
The bankers are building bunkers, my future brother in Christ. An asteroid passed closer than some satellites and it didn't get picked up until after the fact. The propaganda to smear Christianity as the doomsday cult wouldn't be necessary if they were winning.
Nta but Christianity is by far one of the most useful tools for keeping people in line and if elites really believed in God they wouldn’t give a shit about this garbage
My future brother in Christ, the Bible is the only book you're societally and financially allowed to attack while for every defense there'll be 10 debunkings paid for by big globohomo.
Yes you can attack it because it’s one of the controlled positions, it’s meant to keep people arguing in the funny ideological box where nothing matters.
The Bible has called the dualistic fake and gay before it was turned into politics. You can go to jail for quoting the Bible. You can lose your bank account if you have Christian verses in your company's frontpage. The globohomosexual are telling you to stop eating meat, stop reproducing, and stop believing your own lying eyes.
There are only two sides: the dark side, and the false light side which has created the dark side for you to rise up against.
>God is real and the elites believe in him
>but also they think they can beat an omnipotent entity because they’re stoooopid XDDDD
Satan made them believe they can "defeat" Him and "save" the world. God makes climate change. Why else do they fight global warming? Why is there no big good guy world destroyer in entertainment fiction?
They don't assign human motivations to their enemies, since they're metaphorically demons not people. The reality is people are stupid stupid, selfish-greedy, and short sighted. Really stupid ideas can percolate up because it plays into biases and tells people what they want to hear. The world is messy, stupid, and chaotic. But having a pure evil to rail against gives them solace. And there's people who seem to not enjoy any kind of nuance and like instead black/white worldviews. This seems common on the far right and far left.
>This seems common on the far right and far left.
The Devil's persona of Satan rules "the Left" while the persona of Lucifer rules "the Right", two terms for a fake and gay dichotomy made up by demon worshippers whose symbol is composed of architectural tools. They're building bunkers, my future brother in Christ, and you will hear that more often and you will read about it. They mock you.
Here's a section of my notes about Strangers Of Paradise about this topic
>The Lufenians seek a balance between the light and dark, between good and evil. To this end they orchestrate the repetitive act of the Strangers on their quest to save the Crystals. The balance between good and evil comes from the secret societies, where the powers of light and dark are; good and evil are in constant struggle. But it's important to note that in this frame of thinking, the God of the Bible is evil, and Lucifer is the light. To the Lufenians, the cleansing of the Crystals of their darkness is their plan, but this is what destroys Cornelia, as what is right and what is wrong is inverted. The world is stuck in a state of reincarnation, where the will of the evil Lufenians are imposed on Cornelia, over and over again, never ending; to keep a balance between the light and dark. By Jack absorbing the darkness and becoming Chaos he rights the nature of reality, where good triumphs over evil; where the true light overcomes the true darkness, and bliss everlasting is the result.
>In that sense Cornelia represents the Kingdom of Light, whereas Lufenia is the Kingdom of Darkness. In Lufenia's point of view, they are a balance between the light and dark, but this is maintained only through the destruction of Cornelia, which in a way is reflection of their hatred; this is a direct comparison of the beliefs of freemasons and all the secret societies of antiquity. Those who believe that evil is good, and good is evil, and also preach an idea of balance between the two; the black and white checkerboard. In that way, Lufenia is purely evil, even though it preaches balance, because at their core, they believe that evil is good, and good is evil, so everything they deem good, is actually evil, so the concept of a balance between light and dark is also evil.
tell me how that asteroid is related to christianity and how building an epic bunker will save you from earth colliding with an asteroid
what you try to frame as being gangstalked by evil demons is actually just people trying to help you from being moronic, and wasting your time
just to reiterate
if you want to feel good and at peace with christ through helping the downtrodden, homeless and poor you have 100% my sympathy for trying to have a positive effect on the world
The Bible is literally the only ancient book telling us two asteroids will strike the Earth, one causing widespread destruction and the other poisoning the waters. What do demons want? To get worshipped. You don't get worshipped by being a red-skinned ugly as sin sociopath. You get worshipped for solving problems and saving materialistic lives. Time's running out.
>Gee Nostradamus, two meteors?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_impact_structures_on_Earth
Nostradamus was part of the Cabal, and not one impact in human history had any devastating effects as bad as global destruction and end of fake and gay civilization.
Nostradamus is a good example of futurist scam artisans because probability wise saying anything vague will happen probably WILL happen EVENTUALLY two meteors hiting earth being a comically easy milestone to hit.
Pair this with some vague fearmongering and implication you could help stave off these dangers and you've got yourself easy publicity, potential income and plausible deniability to keep your grift going.
>not one impact in human history had any devastating effects as bad as global destruction
Wait really, no way!
I know dinosaurs don't count for christians but sure.
The theory of Evolution is property of the Anglican Church. If aliens visited tomorrow they would call it a Christian idea. Legally they're right because it's legally a Christian discovery.
Besides, the Bible is for God's divine human form, not animals.
>Since the deconstructionist (which is to say, isn't it, the skeptic-relativist-nihilist) is supposed not to believe in truth, stability, or the unity of meaning, in intention or "meaning-to-say" [vouloir-dire], how can he demand of us that we read HIM with pertinence, precision, rigor? How can he demand that his own text be interpreted correctly? How can he accuse anyone else of having misunderstood, simplified, deformed it, etc.? In other words, how can he discuss, and discuss the reading of what he writes?
>The answer is simple enough: this definition of the deconstructionist is FALSE (that's right: false, not true) and feeble; it supposes a bad (that's right: bad, not good) and feeble reading of numerous texts, first of all mine, which therefore must be read or reread.
>Then perhaps it will be understood that the value of truth (and all those values associated with it) is never contested or destroyed in my writings, but only reinscribed in more powerful, larger, more stratified contexts.
Derrida is just an extreme, autistic working out of the implications of Nietzsche's philosophy. Note the value he gives to strength of reading (as opposed to feebleness) - this is just will to power autistically maximized in the specific domain of interpreting texts and the history of commentary on those texts, etc. It's not "satanic" to question the functionality of the value "truth" in philosophical contexts...what's satanic is to idolize a notion of truth unexamined with reference to its own conceptual dependencies (such as presence and immediacy).
>Derrida is just an extreme, autistic working out of the implications of Nietzsche's philosophy.
Derrida and Foucault seem to have been massively influenced by Nietzche and trying to somehow interpret his philosophy as something to do with language. It's all schizobabble.
Sounds like you have a little bit of catching up to do.
>https://jpcatholic.edu/NCUpdf/Nietzsche.pdf
God this is such schizo babble. How can anyone take continental philosophy seriously?
Because analytics can't fathom problems of actual import, such as
>In a similarly limited way man wants the truth: he desires the agreeable life-preserving consequences of truth, but he is indifferent to pure knowledge, which has no consequences; he is even hostile to possible damaging and destructive truths.
What part of that correct observation of mankind's convenient relationship to 'truth' is schizobabble? Or are you just an illiterate?
>Chip Morningstar holds a view critical of deconstruction, believing it to be "epistemologically challenged". He claims the humanities are subject to isolation and genetic drift due to their unaccountability to the world outside academia. During the Second International Conference on Cyberspace (Santa Cruz, California, 1991), he reportedly heckled deconstructionists off the stage.[72]
ie Philosophers only have to do philosophy, and it gets worse with po-mo shit. They write essays, they give lectures, they talk to each other. None of it has any connection to the real world. None of it is tested. None of it has practical implications. It's just abstract bullshit.
Philosophy is just lore about other philosophers bro. It's a professional hobby. Why should it have relevance?
>The "thing in itself" (for that is what pure truth, without consequences, would be)
lmao
It also feels like they're copying the eva rebuilds play by play for ff7 remake in terms of ruining everything meaningful about the original and making it all about making a mass marketable version of something already popular
Nah, the Eva Rebuilds were fun because they changed things, and the things they changed were batshit insane, so that everyone watching was able to experience something new. Only the very ending Gendo shit was bad, but at that point you already knew what you were getting yourself into. Whereas with the Remake, they kinda tease in Part 1 that it's an Eva Rebuild, but then they pussy out and it's actually not an Eva Rebuild, it actually is just multiverse cop-out shit and actually nothing has changed at all from the original. Eva Rebuild was fun and interesting and was not the original at all. Remake is like the worst of both worlds in that it is not exactly the original, and it's also not different.
None of what you just said is correct.
It's all correct. The fact that you couldn't even reply to me correctly proves that it's literally all correct
>Logical fallacy
And this is coming from an Evatard of all people. How ironic.
You still can't reply to me. You must be upset at how correct everything I said was. Or, more likely, you are some evangelical (heh) VII gay and you disliked that my comment wasn't praising the Remake. I've all too familiar with your kind, and I know that you are an evangelical VII gay who simply didn't like my true statements. Also, I'm not an "Evatard", all I did is watch it, like a lot of other people also did, presumably even you, since you claim to know so much about how I'm wrong (without actually giving any reasons)
have you watched anything besides evangelion?
It's not.
X-2, XIII, XV and SoP are definitely satirical in tone. I'd even go as far as to say that V and IX are as well in parts.
>I heard a schizo theory
This is when you should have immediately disregarded it, had a laugh and moved on. Instead, it "stuck with you," so much so that you decided to make a thread about it on a Taiwanese auto detailing image board. Think about that.
>what is satire
Zoomer brainrot is incapable of sincerity.
Good satire should provoke thought while poking fun at commonly-accepted ideas. Let's look at a couple examples across the series.
>FF1, the tutorial is saving the princess--the point where most other games of the era ended
>FF3, what if the game just kept going after you thought you already saw everything? Explore the floating island, explore the world below, explore under the ocean under the world below, defeat Xande, ???
>FF5, the main villain is an amalgam of demons inside of a tree. Instead of building his home out of wood, he builds it by cutting down humans instead.
>FF7, the main character is a pastiche of everything popular in the 90s. He dresses like a Dragon Ball character, has the Guts sword, has spiky anime hair, and acts like a brooding edgy 90s action hero. The game oscillates between hyping him up and completely emasculating him until he learns to be his own person.
>FF9, I don't think there's any actual satire here. Being lighthearted, having banter =/= satire, all of its core themes are played genuinely.
>FF12, the entire plot after the events aboard the Shiva could have been avoided if Ashe just accepted the treaty and agreed to be a vassal queen. Our alleged hero has a woman moment and only narrowly avoids making the Cold War go hot just because she wanted a satisfying revenge against the country that got her husbando killed. Not exactly satire and more shakespearian tragedy.
There's something to the idea, but to say the whole series is satirical is absurd.
I don't think FF9's narrative is a satire but I do find it funny how despite being marketed as a return to the series' roots it's mostly messing around with menus and minigames. Isn't the most common criticism how broken and exploitable the combat is? Can't really say the same thing about 1-6 IMO.
It's a return to the roots in that it's a high-fantasy setting where characters have clearly-defined jobs and fighting the Four Fiends and collecting THE CRYSTALS after their last true appearance in 5 to save the kingdom is a core part of the story. Crystals showed up kinda sorta as the Magicite/Materia in 6 and 7, but those instances are distinct enough for them to be considered their own standalone ideas.
>>FF9, I don't think there's any actual satire here. Being lighthearted, having banter =/= satire, all of its core themes are played genuinely.
The parody object of this game is FF itself. "Returning to roots" in order to poke fun at them.
Adding to your list
>FFX, throughout FF games summons have appeared for a turn or two to dole out high damage then leave; here you get to control them in battle, and it turns out the protagonist was a controllable summon as well; he "leaves" at the end of the game.
>and acts like a brooding edgy 90s action hero
This wasn't satirical back in the 90s when FF7 came out you FRICKING TOTAL moron!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NONE OF THE OTHER SHIT YOU SAID WAS SATIRE EITHER I'M GOING TO CUT OFF YOUR PEE PEE AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR BUTTHOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>the main character is a pastiche of everything popular in the 90s
bababooey
>you're about to become a rape victim
wow damn that sux man!!!!!!!!!!!
>puts a landmine in my anus
>Fills my anus with concerete to resist the exploding landmine
Nothing personal kid
There is nothing new. When you say "brooding edgy action hero", you're referring to an archetype. And it didn't start in the 90's, that's for sure.
Exdeath in V is the tree spirit. The Guardian Tree he's spawned from houses the Crystals. The Crystals in question were the siphons of evil, until they created Exdeath using the tree they were housed in, which is why he has power over the Crystals. When he enters the Void as wood, he comes out as flesh and blood. (Pinocchio's wish was to become a real boy; turning from wood, to flesh and boy)
>The 4 Warriors of Light part ways for a year but when Krile returns the to the Guardian Tree, they all reunite, saying they'll always be with each other. It's rather vague, but based off of the minor detail that a year passed during the credit scenes, it brings to mind the 1000 years theme. They will always be together, the 4 warriors of Light, against the tree spirit that comes out of the Guardian Tree every 1000 years, which again is emphasized; in front of the Guardian Tree is where Bartz reasserted this promise to Krile.
I wish you were alone but unfortunately you zoomerhomosexuals have been bombarded with so much postmodernism, petty deconstructions, irony poisoning, and derivative work after derivative work of meta fiction that only amount to their respective authors having a pity wank (looking at you Vonnegut) that you genuinely cannot conceive of a story made out of love and care rather than some kind of acedic nonsense built on a spur of the moment lapse into nihilism or spite. Read the classics, reject the nu works, or fricking have a nice day because if I have to deal with any more of you fricks latching onto this notion I’ll fricking murder suicide you curly haired niggoids
Then what about Stranger of Paradise?
Im sure there's a 5 hour video essay on youtube somewhere explaining why the anime guy with big sword dueling the anime guy with big sword is a satirical deconstruction of anime guys with big swords.
This is why remakes are pure poison; these insufferable homosexuals will dug up the grave of all your fav childhood games and piss all over them.
Shirley is a cutie, I can't wait for her to become playable like every other fricking dindu enforcer.
You say this but you didnt buy Sona nyl and the violet shadows so you dont really care about honest story telling
they are all an amalgamation where once you connect all the dots together from all of the final fantasies, you realize they are all stories from previous civilizations before the great floods
>everything is satire
you guys are so gay
You reminded me of something. I finished replaying IV last week and the ending was so weird and jarring. It was like a stage play the way everyone talked; like everything FuSoYa, and maybe Golbez, said was insincere in some way. All the FF endings give off that eerie sensation.
Each Final Fantasy has their own stories, satire is just a part of some
Explain. Pro tip: You won't because you just made the thread then left immediately
Then explain why morons hate the *actually* satirical Final Fantasy game for being satirical, despite it being one of the best in the series
What's it commenting on? Hiroshima? Tourism? Declining birth rates?
>Le Millennials are the future! You're time is over old man!
Also FF games are comprised of many things and that's just one thing. It's defiantly commenting on tourism after war/the bomb fell. Also that game isn't so much a satire as it is a wet fart of a fanfic sequel with a ham-fisted "serious business" story.
I can't, I can't explain that. I don't know why this game is maligned. I think because their moms and sisters made fun of them for playing it.
I sometimes wonder if the jap writers of final fantasy are even aware that some artsy frickboy somewhere thinks they are David lynch or some other pretentious filmmaker.
>stop talking about it!
>there is no meaning, just consoom!
Yeah, of course. My bad. I’m sure there’s a m. Night shyamalamadingdong worthy twist in every single final fantasy game because reasons.
That sounds kino actually, so I'm gonna go with that.
They're just plots. They have twists.
>Hmm you seem upset
>Trauma dumps of wall-o-text
I accept your crying concession at how correct I am
>I heard a schizo theory
Why did you keep it in your mind if you could notice as much?
Here:
Sephiroth has narcissistic personality disorder.
He has a false self.
The false self is an internal omnipotent god version of himself
all perfect.
That's savior sephiroth. That's what he thinks he is.
Since he has a mother complex, he finds a woman (Jenova)
that reminds him of his mother
(those people have a heavy oedipus complex and they never outgrow it)
makes her his girlfriend and treats her and expects her to be like his mom.
Dual mothership model.
Narcissists are mentally impaired, they confuse their own internal world and the external world.
The whole story about the world ending and someone trying to destroy it,
It's about you
About not succumbing to meaninglessness. Nihilism.
About holding on to hope.
The whole angel and esoteric visuals are just that. Visuals.
That's why you find the actual body of Sephiroth inside a crater frozen. Narcissists are empty inside. They have amentia.
A lot of stories are about avoiding the void that people with NPD are. About not thinking like someone who has NPD, narcissistic personality disorder.
There's a big difference between narcissism and NPD.
That's just a pseudo-psychoanalytic interpretation, though. Reliant on pre-critical "inside/outside" models of subjectivity. Even if you were to criticize these ideas and arrive at a more nuanced Freudian concept, nothing would authorize that lens ahead of time besides tactical decision and rhetorical exigence.
even if you picked the elements of what you wrote
and rearranged them in any way possible,
you still wouldn't make any sense.
any reference to Freud buzzwords and "psychology" already doesn't make any sense
>"inside/outside" models of subjectivity
I wonder why the last fight happens inside Could's mind then.
And if you take into account the extra material that Sephiroth is still in the lifestream after FF7, then it was Cloud's mind.
Sephiroth is Chaos, and the Lifestream is the goddess. The goddess creates Chaos, which is why Sephiroth persists with her. But that doesn't change the obvious fact that Cloud, who is the Warrior of Light, killed Sephiroth, who is Chaos, at the end of VII.
eh, that sounds too much like a diametric boolean interpretation to me. Much too reliant on post-observation "indulgences" in objectivity. Even if I were to criticize your ideas in an attempt to detach from a more concretized concept of Freudian thought, everything posited would have been justified post hoc and not through a careful examination of rhetoric strategic dynamism.
>I am correct! I am correct!
Mighty insecure if you have to keep saying it.
One of the game that FF took inspiration (wizardry), starts satirical and then derails into a shitpost by the fourth entry, so there is that
>Satire
Moon: Remix RPG Adventure
>Parody
Alex Jone: NWO Wars
Know the difference.
It's really amazing how this thread basically exposes chuds as being openly against criticial thinking and analysis, because the moment you do so their worldview topples like a stack of cards.
>why does the lifestream empower both Sephiroth and Aerith if it's an intelligent force that would supposedly do things that would preserve its existence?
>"I don't know, probably something about trans rights or something. Have you gotten your 18th booster shot yet?"
>Thread is literally just another spin on "Everything is political!"
Someone post the IQ chart of the boards please.
Why does every sincere discussion about Final Fantasy stories (this doesn't happen with other series) degrade into people shitposting and mocking the idea that people actually put thought into things?
When the games in the series are not directly connected, and have been out for years.
Also it's kind of a normie series, like Sonic.
There's too much info about them.
Countless:
guides,
reviews,
content (videos, articles, posts, fanfic, etc)
There's too much and no filter. So in a post you get shippers, fanfic, head canon, canon, opinion, fact, etc.
Just like in the series there's no cohesion and filter, people with no cohesion and filter are drawn to it.
If you wanna' see real insincerity then I dare you to make this thread on /vrpg/.
Yes that makes sense, especially when you don't explain why or give any examples.
All Super Mario games are also satire, as well as our governments.
>claims to be a democracy
>there's clearly an aristocracy that gets "voted" in no matter what every time.
yeah, I guess that is satire.
