Antis on tumblr are so cringey with their hatred of characters mixed with performative activism, it is all like:
"Lol you like this BLAND!! Pallle ass wHiiite character" and then they simply stan a different white character themselves.
Or the typical:
"I headcanon everyone in this show as lgbtq except this one character I hate, they are straight because I personally headcanon them as such and it totally gives me a suuper valid motive to hate them for some woke reason" or worse, they headcanon the characters they dislike as homophobic or racist with no canon evidence.
If they lack imagination, antis will just give the character they hate a different nickname based on a distortion of their real name, you know, like children in kindergarden.
I am not even against essays explaining why people hate (Or love) certain characters, I am all for the drama as long as there are actual arguments based on canon and not petty insults.
When did Orion/Oppy get suckered in by Sentinel? Surely Oppy would see through the trash man. Or did Sentinel have blackmail?
Sentinel is a respectable chief cop and actually hides his nasty side quite well, he does have decorum after all and has a public image to upkeep! Sentinel met OP at the police academy while he was scouting for talent, and OP was at the top of their class, so he was immediately a choice candidate for Sentinel to take under his wing.
I’m debating that they might have known each other earlier; In his youth, what drove OP to want to be a cop initially was an attempt on Mirza’s life (Mirza was a political refugee and someone had tracked him down to their new home in Hackney) which was foiled by cops, and I’m thinking Sentinel as a rookie was one of them. Might have even let tiny OP wear his hat and talked to OP to calm OP down while the older cops were arresting suspects and taking statements.
It would give even more reason for OP to trust Sentinel when they meet each other again years later and part of Sentinel might also be flattered that OP ‘followed in his footsteps’, enough so that he takes OP under his wing, because clearly this is providence that they met!
It would also give a reason as to why it takes a while for OP to see through Trash Man, but he sees it a lot earlier than Coptimus does, and it’s not Megatron giving him lofty ideas or Sentinel’s idea of peace through order (even if that order is unfair) that drives his desire for a better world—-it’s the good and bad he learns from both of them and his own experiences working in the Dead End.
He’s his own person at the end of the day,
Can I just say, your beliefs on neopagans are a breath of fresh air compared to what one of my friends believe, namely that all Neopagans are white supremacists or some other such nonsense. I don’t personally believe in Neopaganism but my brother-in-law is one and is one of the friendliest guys around, so it always frustrates me when my friend says shit like that.
Unfortunately, Nazis have co-opted Norse myth since their inception. The "Black Sun" icon is composed of a wheel of SS marks. But they're not actually S.
It's actually the rune called Sowilo. It's where the "Sig" rune comes from and Sig eventually became Sieg, which is the first half of the Nazi chant. Translated it means "hail victory".
Unfortunately this has tainted a lot of Norse myths and concepts.
I don't think neopagans are bad people inherently. There is, unfortunately, a small percentage of neopagans (particularly Odinists) that are white supremacists explicitly because of the Nazi's appropriation of Norse myth.
But, on the whole, the entire religion should be separated from the Nazi stigma. The Hindus, Buddhists, etc, aren't demonized (or shouldn't be) for their use of the swastika and Norse neopagans shouldn't be demonized for using icons like Mjolnir or the Valknut.
Do other people in the world really believe the genocide is over or that conditions have improved? They began starving the North in March last year and then continued to starve the whole Strip for a year and now they are starving the whole Gaza Strip again this March, in Ramadan.
Genocide is an act of collective punishment and neglect of the most essential life sources.
In reality they began committing genocide against the people of Gaza the day that the siege on Gaza was imposed. What we continue to witness since Oct 7th is only the same genocide accelerated which I will never stop repeating.
Not only that, the murder by aircraft has not stopped. israel's fascist death machines are still hovering and threatening and firing and killing people in their tents, in their damaged homes, in cars, at people trying to rebuild...their thirst for Palestinian blood is literally infinite.
Even if the fire stopped, it would still be genocide. There is no such thing as an israeli ceasefire because they practice murder by freezing and starving and medically neglecting and physically and psychologically torturing Palestinians too.

Wtf does any of this even mean? Telling people not to cosplay because of your twisted interpretation of a fictional character?
"He's not in any way removed from reality" >He's a fucking super soldier with a vibranium shield juiced up on a serum that enhances the human mind and body. Wtf are you actually talking about?
"There's no need to cosplay a guy who is fighting to maintain and uphold white supremacy" >WHERE??? Where do you see ANY of this?? Is it because the mean white man has the shield and the poor black man doesn't, even though the black man gave it up in the first place? Last time I checked, the only one who gave a damn about Lemar dying was John, Olivia and Lemar's family. Everyone else disregards him the SECOND he was no longer in frame.
It's more likely you live in reality with people like Sam and Bucky who are too stubborn to see common sense.
Also, since y'all are still mad at Nico dying...HE'S A SUPERSOLDIER, YOU CAN'T EXACTLY PUT THEM IN HANDCUFFS. IT'S EITHER WILLINGLY SURRENDER (which he did not do, and more than likely had no plans of doing) OR DEATH. It was seen as brutal only because blood finally found its way on the shield after years and years of Steve beating other criminals to death, but what other alternative was there? Fucking get over it already, Jesus.
It's clear some of you are letting your hatred of white men compromise your judgement. These kinds of opinions are just you telling everyone you are incapable of reacting and thinking for yourself, you'd literally be content if Marvel jingled a pair of keys in front of you.

Billions of years ago, there was a technologically advanced civilization known as the Mathusians. The brightest of the Mathusians was Krona, and his wisdom drove him to pursue what he viewed as the ultimate, most tantalizing form of Knowledge: The sight of creation itself, the Big Bang. However, in his arrogance he reached too far. In physics, it is known that some particles exist at multiple points simultaneously, only becoming certain their position when viewed. At the beginning of creation, all things were in this state.
