Ever read something so stupid it just brings you to a screeching halt while you try to puzzle it out?
Holdo is such a terrible leader that in any sane military she would have been put out for psychological problems or put against a wall and shot.

Don't forget that in the side fiction, she's obsessive about coloring her hair to the point she murdered a pet and used its blood to color her hair.

Anyone with even a passing familiarity with the military could write you pages of sperg-lord reasons why Holdo is a terrible officer and is responsible for the Resistance being dropped all the way down to so few numbers they could fit on the Falcon without being face to ass.

He doesn't like Poe because he doesn't understand Poe. He sees him as sexist because he's a sexist who believes women can't do wrong and doesn't understand that Poe was perfectly in the right to remove Holdo, who was getting everyone killed FOR NO FUCKING REASON. In the next movie they state that what she did was a million to one fluke, meaning that she didn't even know if it would work.

I'd love to see this person trying to justify ANY of Holdo's decisions to anyone with any life experience outside of squatting in their parent's garage fondling their Holdo plushy.

Well, it started with actually using her slow-moving bombers in the opening fight (which is the only good scene in the movie); after that, the rest of movie almost gave me an migraine on how drawn out it was.

I settled in for an exceptional cinematic experience when the bombers showed up, though I'd say the fight with Rey and Ren with the red dudes was actually pretty cool.
 
It’s interesting that Group Attack is written with capitals, granting it the status of a proper noun. That is, transforming it from a general concept to a specific entity. What faggotry be this that across the land doth roam?
 
I thought that was pretty cool, too. Until I saw that fight again and noticed one of the red dudes weapons disappeared so Rey's plot armor would work.
The magical vanishing dagger is probably the most obvious issue, but the entire fight is choreographed and performed for shit. Here is a very autistic breakdown by a HEMA sperg that goes into high detail. (HEMA is Historical European Martial Arts)

As good as that fight was, it's kind of surreal how Rey can survive that kind of fight. I mean, Luke had Vader and Palpatine toying with him over the course of a few years. Anakin and Kenobi was classically trained and was up against someone who was kind of exhausted from fighting off a Jedi Master.

Rey barely had that lightsaber for a week or two, had Ren helping her out, and they almost got killed in the process. And the disappearing knife felt intentional, at this point.

Remember when lightsabers were fucking terrifying and Jedi were disciplined, focused space-monks?

Ok, I watched this for 13 minutes and we have 3 potential decapitations for Rey, Ren can't be bothered to use his lightsaber, the recoil is overdone at the beginning, and the Imperial Guards keep aiming high and there's hardly any teamwork from their end.

Honestly, the flying buzzsaw routine made sense.
 
"We're not cops, we just police our community from wrongthink. That's totally different!"
Well Sphinx isn’t wrong to say they’re not like real-world justice systems. Those systems involve clear laws based on natural justice and common law, arrests made by a specific profession empowered to do so under those laws, and tried by neutral parties or groups of peers.
Retarded People Gather dot net runs more like the East German Stasi. Someone rats you out to an anonymous authority for clout and pffft! Just like that, you are gone, at the entirely arbitrary whim of a faceless, power mad apparatchik. Want to appeal? That same bureaucrat will review the appeal with their fellow apparatchiks.
Then, if you don’t get unpersoned and sent to gulag, you reappear on the doorstep a few weeks later, pale and shaking, a bunch of flowers in your hand and blood running down your legs.
 
Jesus Fucking Krypton.

Seriously, just... read the thread. I don't want to spoil it.

Also, someone named 'Slerotin' got the axe, but no idea what triggered (lol) it. Dawgstar banned him under Rule 0, but the linked post/thread doesn't exist.

My educated guess is that Slerotin posted a thread that got him in the shit. What's interesting is (a) the thread is gone, not just locked, and (b) Slerotin has NO prior transgressions. None, zip, zero, nada. He hasn't posted much, and his prior posts seem fairly innocuous.
 
Haha amazing. They pitched a fit about the robot from MST3K too, it got renamed in the Netflix series.

Amazing. The new name is "GPC" ... which still sounds almost identical to "gypsy," you neurotic, pathetic, pandering, wetbrain fucks.
 
I'm going to give them like 30% of a pass for that ban because that guy strikes me as one of those insufferably pedantic nerds who absolutely will not drop the argument unless acted upon by an outside force. Anyone who multiquotes so they can respond line by line is a huge faggot and should be mocked as such.
