@mothcheesecloth Because they were half-baked character concepts that Oda added in last minute to pad out Sabaody. Their crews never mattered, half of them don't actually matter either.

@wordlewizard69 @fredleept @LGcommaI The British by 1776 had already undergone their own bourgeois revolution, and feudal class relations in the colonies by then were basically non-existent.
1776 is best understood as a struggle between two national Bourgeoisie with competing interests for the settler-colonies.

@fredleept @LGcommaI Even under a Marxist framework it’s still a change of social relations and a class based revolution, no? The British monarchy had restrained the bourgeoisie in America. The bourgeois class revolted against the vestiges of feudal society in the monarchy to create a republic.
English
What the United States is undergoing, paradoxically, is a counter-revolution without ever having undergone a revolution.

@PhantomPiece16 or maybe the endings of most arcs since the ts have been sub-par 🤷♂️

Don’t worry yall it’s the standard cycle of op fans to begin hating the arc as it’s reaching its conclusion.

@Kamige_studio @Dreamboum Your poor grammar made me misread your comment. Apologies. What you said is not inherently wrong, but not liking a character's actions can be an aspect to a proper critique of a story if rationalized properly.
English
@CyThatguy @Dreamboum you can't draw such conclusions from what I'm saying
English
Increasingly worrying how many people conflate an in-universe explanation as a valid defense of something. As long as it is "explained" they think you cannot ever have an issue with the way a character or a story is handled in fiction.
English
@Kamige_studio @Dreamboum This is a functionalist view of media, treating it as a consumable product which is "good" if it has no "defects", it doesn't try to actually engage with the narrative or medium.
English
@Dreamboum Maybe you try to put character's actions as flaw of narrative? If you don't like character's actions it's not valid criticism of story

@MintsJams @JulieWD4 @BenjaminCrew1 The failure was that the Union refused to give the south over to the freed slaves because they were afraid of them seeking independence from the US.
Instead they propped up the same people they just fought a bloody four year war with and continued white supremacy.
English
@JulieWD4 @BenjaminCrew1 you joke but its this exact problem with failing to reintegrate the south into the country after the civil war that lead to a large portion of our nations problems today

Crazy how much "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" dunks on "Dixie" as a war anthem. Hearing "As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free" has me wanting to run through a wall. What do you mean the Confederate ballad was "I wish I was in Dixie, Hooray! Hooray!"

@PierreBalinski That myth and religion are separate things, educated people did not believe word for word in myths, myth varied based on the location and era, and myth and history were at one point considered the same thing and both akin to tabloid journalism today.

I'm still waiting for them to be back 😢

The most delicious part about the 31 fanbase crashout we’re about to witness over the Chiefs being back is that they did this to themselves We told them about injuries, lack of supporting talent, coaching issues. They ignored us. Convinced themselves “Mahomes washed.” well

Travis checks literally none of the boxes for the star player late-career team switch
He’s an all time great
He’s won here
He’s got a chance to win again here
He’s still a very good player
He’s beloved by coaches, teammates, fans
He doesn’t need one last paycheck
Forget it
