But what if America ends up on the receiving end of a massive electromagnetic pulse that renders all that wonderful technology permanently unusable, Bob? You're a Thinker™; you should know about the consequences of such an attack.
That'll never happen, because Bob knows that any negative view towards technology is a fake scenario dreamt up by out of touch obsoletes who watch too much Black Mirror.

I would have thought the "matured" mindset would be that you can enjoy something while recognizing it has flaws, sometimes major ones.
Bob enjoys the things he does because they're all perfectly crafted works of high art with nary a flaw to speak of. It's not because he's a consoomerist whore who will lap up any and all slop Disney and other Superior producers of pop-culture put out, rather his level of maturity is so high that he can't enjoy anything less than a cinematic masterpiece.

Something that occurred to me is Bob's squealing about how intelligence is the only virtue stems from his unwavering belief that an intelligent person can only make the correct decision. Relativism aside (what is "correct" may vary from person to person), it ignores the fact that intelligent people can, in fact, be incorrect and make an objectively wrong decision. Two examples, both in the financial business:

First, the now-defunct hedge fund Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM). LTCM was a hedge fund that began in the early '90s, and within a few years had over $100 billion in funds (or over $179 billion today.) Now, LTCM was not started and headed by trust find babies with no experience, but by economists, college professors (from Harvard, MIT, and Stanford, to name a few places, and I believe a couple had Nobel prizes), and professional stock traders. These people were the cream of the crop when it came to a business like this. Yet, by 1998, LTCM was in deep financial trouble, and by early 2000 it had been ignominiously dissolved. What happened? Simply put, the fund invested in high-risk markets without a plan, and were blindsided when those markets (namely Russia and Asia) collapsed. The story was recorded in a book appropriately titled "When Genius Failed."

The next example is Enron, an energy company whose increasing debt and failed projects were covered up by management, increasingly desperate to present the façade of a functioning company to increasingly suspicious shareholders. These cover-ups included accounting tricks, outright destruction of evidence, and deliberately misleading those members of management who interacted with shareholders. When Enron finally collapsed and the evidence of wrongdoing was presented, it shocked the world, as Enron was, at least initially, considered both profitable and competently managed. This story has been chronicled in the ironically titled "The Smartest Guys in the Room."

While I could go on, I think my point is clear. Intelligence does not mean you are objectively correct all the time. For dolts like Bob, though, intelligence is like magic: it can do anything.
The fact that LTCM and Enron both failed proves that instead the people involved were stupid and evil. A Thinker would have simply invested in good and smart businesses instead.

Bobby's haters take the chance to remind him of his life's milestones.

I notice that Bob ignored Brick by Brick to instead reply to all the comments about his costumes except for the dude who "lied" by accurately summarizing Bob's writing.

I thought Bob denies he's an atheist and also claims he's religious. Yet again he's arguing for a class of people that includes himself to be disqualified from life.

The press won't call you a white supremacist terrorist if you shoot people when wearing a woman's dress.

Once again the Believers in the media say something is complex (while suggesting that people not jump to conclusions based on false information) and Bob corrects them that no, it's actually incredibly simple like all things and all information is apparent before any events even happen.

These people are so dumb...

Going by Pew (the least annoying website I picked from) in 2019 there were 107.8 MILLION workers in the service industry. Checking worldometers.info, COVID deaths in USA since then were 1.04 million.

That means even if we assume Bobby is right, and ALL the cough deaths were service workers, that's only 0.965% of the workforce dead. Or if all else being equal, there would still be 106.76 million service workers in the USA. In other words: not an answer to the man's question.
The regime really couldn't ask for a better NPC than MovieBob. One who's so fucking stupid and so fucking resistant to doing research and finding out the facts, that he honestly believes people aren't working their service industry jobs because they're fucking dead. Not because, say, restrictions are still in place, or the various governments paid them more money to stay at home than they would have made by working those jobs, or because they don't want to come back to their service jobs, either because the jobs are shitty and they can find better work from home, or because they've got PTSD from this shit (because when world governments run a fear campaign for two years a lot of people are going to be traumatised) and are just as afraid of Wu Flu as Blob is.

It really shows you his approach to pretty much everything he does. He tries to speak from a position of authority but exudes utter ignorance.
 
Bob's veneration of "smart" and "intelligent" people reminds me of that old channer copy-pasta about how stupid people view smart people like fucking wizards.
Once again, the dipshit Bob just fucking assumes that drone and robot technology is at the point that it can replace all of those obsoletes, or it's just around the corner if the Science Men would just stop being lazy and work faster. As if companies already wouldn't be making long-term implementation of robots and drones if that was actually the case.

Because again, Bob is a stupid person to whom smart people are indistinguishable from wizards.
Bob is the kind of guy who thinks they know better than everyone else after learning a bit from some experiences. Guy gets a job reviewing movies, starts believing he is part of the cultural Elite of the U.S. and scoffs and dehumanizes everyone he sees as his "inferiors". Even heavily mechanized, high tech facilities still have guys around to make sure everything is running just fine, and modern farms still rely on human labour even if a single man with a tractor can do the work of many men. Does Bob simply assume these places could be entirely run by drones and robots, ignoring cases such as a machinery getting bogged down or simply going haywire over some malfunctions? These are just two cases I imagined right now which would refute Bob's ideas, but he is too deep on his egotistical delusions to even consider questioning himself in the slightest!

If Bob took some time and walked outside of his basement to actually meet the people from these places, I bet he would be surprised to find out they are normal people like you and me, albeit he wouldn't accept it. Bob pictures all of them as rabid, delusional QTards while going on the opposite direction and wanting to genocide everyone outside of his little bubble. Fuck, Bob is much closer to the bonkers Q guys who believe in horseshit such as McDonald's burgers being made out of human meat than to a Cosmopolitan Thinker than he would ever admit, so sweet the irony!

Reply bug,

Precisely, but Bob is too much of a fucking idiot and a manbaby to ever stop and take a minute to think about anything he's talking about. Bob's thinking is based on reducing everything, and I mean everything, in the fields of good things and bad things, using some adjectives and pejorative terms to address, respectively, criticism and praise. It isn't even an additional layer, it's just a coat of paint this stupid fuck adds to pretend he actually thought fucking anything out. For a Critic, Bob really doesn't go any further than poorly motivated personal opinions and political slander, the sort of shit most immature guys would have dropped before their 20's are dawning is still a thing in Bob, a 41 years old man that makes a 14 year old boy look like an example of maturity!

You don't have to even speculate. Just think back to when somebody finally actually mildly pressed Bob as to how life could possibly operate if everyone was sealed into their homes. He just dismissed it with "robots, duh" as if it was the other person being the simplistic Believer who hadn't done even a minimum of thinking. You can't point to anywhere that there's even a single one of the robots necessary for even half of what would be required for this and Bob's already moved on to rolling out enough to supply the population of the entire planet indefinitely. (And supply all of those robots without any humans.)

It's actually hard to comprehend just how stupid Bob actually is because it's rare to truly find someone whose behavior is like this. Even when Bob admits he doesn't know something, like anything about math, he dismisses it as unimportant for anyone to know which implies he doesn't think there's actually anything important he doesn't know. Bob seems to express a belief that he merely chose to be an expert in film while others choose to be experts in brain surgery but this is the only difference and if Bob chose he could become an expert in brain surgery too. Lots of lolcows imagine they're experts about everything while constantly displaying they know nothing, and lots of lolcows are totally ignorant about what it is that they don't know, but few lolcows are as presumptuous as Bob that they know everything that's important to know to the maximum while both bragging about it and also openly wishing for the literal extermination of anyone who doesn't know as much as they do for "choosing" to be immoral.

I think some of his characters traits might be related to this mentality. His theory of evolving into an understanding that all relationships are merely expressions of power would indicate that he's actively chosen to become an awful person so as not to express forms of weakness to others. Unfortunately for Bob he hasn't evolved out of revealed preferences.

Bob seems to have taken Arthur C. Clarke's old quote about sufficiently advanced technology being indistinguishable from magic and misinterpreted it poorly. In his usual fedora-tipping manner, he views Science™ as this wondrous force that will purge the evil Believers and consign them to the dustbin of history, leaving only a glorious utopian Thinker future. The man possesses zero knowledge of the various hurdles standing in the way of a fully automated workforce, and he just assumes that it's evil Christians holding back the pure and noble scientists. He probably unironically believes in this old meme image:
1657265861399.png

A few pages back, he was going on yet another euphoric rant about how technology was going to get rid of those horrible God-botherers. I mean, sweet Jesus, this shit wouldn't have looked out of place on r/atheism a decade ago, and yet here he is:
1657265616093.png
I'll bet every pussy in a ten-mile radius dried up suddenly as Bob posted this tweet.

There is no real conflict between religion and science. Many of the brightest minds in history were religious, and they sought to explain their creator's world as best they could. Religious centers kept vast amounts of knowledge safe throughout the years. Very few scientists seem to actively try to disprove God through their work, and those that do come across as slightly more articulate versions of the fedora-tipper at best.

It takes a truly small mind to believe that you cannot pursue knowledge while also believing in a higher power, as Bob so ably demonstrates.

this is one of Bob's most galaxy smoothbrain-dead takes.

"Medicine" came originally from herbs and shit. Modern medicine can recreate more pure and standardized versions of the shit that came from plants (like aspirin from Salix aka Willow Bark) or penicillin/other antibiotics/etc. It's not a defiance of nature, it's a usage of nature that evolved.

The light switch is also not a defiance of nature; electricity is a natural force that was usually seen as raw lightning bolts. Creating electricity via turbines and such, is simply harnessing a natural force, not spitting in a deity's face. (please to note that Movieblob also thinks harnessing fire is 'defying nature')

And flying? Again, harnessing a force. Humans lack the ability of their own volition to produce enough lift to fly. Creating a device that CAN produce enough lift to fly (Helicopter, Airplane, Hot-Air Balloon, Ultralight, etc) is simply harnessing a force that exists. Wright Bros' plane sure didn't slash Sky Daddy's throat. Might have slashed the throats of some other deities (can you slash the throat of something that doesn't exist, and therefore doesn't even have a throat to slash? Asking for a friend), but not that one. I don't recall the 11th commandment being "thou shalt not fly".

The fact that Blob thinks this was a Big-Brained Thinker ™️ take just proves how incredibly stupid he actually is, despite his claims to the contrary.

Perhaps funnier is that Bob seems to believe that chemistry, electricity and physics are not natural.

He also seems to think you're defying the gods, who never told you not to fly or have lights or have medicine, but did tell you to use the Earth and then put things like a bunch of flying animals and consistent natural forces in it to observe if you figure out how to replicate these "unnatural" things. Seems more like a god, especially one who makes man in his image, would be proud that you're learning and harnessing these forces?

I mean yeah, of course that meme's dumb. It's not the real chart of what was lost. When will Bob bring up this true history?

But this is not news. Persona 4 had a very well received anime adaptation, Persona 5 was a fan favourite of the normies (considering that it overexplained all the weird stuff from previous personas so that the normalfags don't get scared or confused), Yakuza 1 was adapted into a live action move with all the games' goofiness.

Ironically Persona 5 would be right up Bob's ally in terms of being filled with SJW anti-life shit.

>>Main villain is a corrupt politician that Bob would consider a Trump stand-in
>>Subplot that the masses are "the real monster" because they "believe fake news and don't do or say what the SJW minority believe and say".
>>One of the main hero characters is told that the world is evil because they don't shower him with money and fame for making garbage "art"

HOLY SHIT.
No, Bob. NO. Robin Williams as Mrs. Doubtfire, hosting a children's show at the end of the fucking movie, is NOT nor will it EVER be even REMOTELY equivalent to Dragtime Story Hour or whatever the fuck. Unlike Bob, I have a crisp clear memory of Mrs. Doubtfire because I've seen it multiple times over the years, although I think the last time I saw it all the way through was like 10+ years ago. Good lord, I'm not even a goddamn movie reviewer, and I remember shit better than Bob.

-Drag performers are usually quite flamboyant and outrageous. From the clothing, the hair/wig, makeup, the voice, you name it. Usually very sexualized. You can usually tell it's a dude under all that. And if the kiddies at said Dragtime Story Hour don't already know, my dude, the dragster will LET them know.

-Robin Williams in drag was a sweet lil old lady that passed so well, nobody could tell he was a man under all that. The voice was a perfect lil old lady voice, perfected by Robin Williams himself. The whole point, near the beginning of the movie, was that IT WAS A DISGUISE. At the end of the movie, it proved such a good disguise that children watching Robin Williams be Mrs. Doubtfire on TV were none the wiser.

-Also holy shit Sally Fields' character was such a bitch.
In defense of Sally Field's character, she was the breadwinner of the family and RW's character, at the start of the film, was a perpetually out of work manchild/woketard who in the opening minutes of the film, got fired from a voice acting role because he demanded like a petulant child woke shit be added to a script (in this case, an anti-smoking screed).

The film explicitly stated as well that RW was the "fun" parent" who indulged his kids in their various desires so that they would like him more than their mom, who was so busy working a very high end executive job that left her stressed out and exhausted and constantly coming home to chaos because, rather than being a responsible normal parent who took into account the stress Fields was under and help make shit easier for her by being a responsible parent, let the kids do all sorts of shit that Fields would have to clean up and discipline the kids for, which in turn made her kids despise her and favor their "cool dad" over her because he effortlessly managed to pit the kids against their mom and vice versa for his own egotistical need to be the "cool parent".

It's one of the things, like how they portrayed Pierce Bronson as a legit nice guy who reconnects with Field because he regretted turning her down years ago because he didn't want a family and now has a second chance with her, that makes Mrs Doubtfire stand the test of time. The whole story is a very complex portrait of a family breaking up with no clear bad guy and even Williams' character is no saint (as he spends most of the film cockblocking Fields while in drag until he sacrifices everything to save Bronson's life) and realizes that he needs to own up to his role in the failure of his marriage in order to start over and have a chance to be a part of his kids lives. It's probably one of my favorite Robin Williams films because it has a good amount of soul and pathos to it that helps elevate what, on the surface is a generic crossdressing comedy, to a higher level.

oh god I remember that scene - the whole anti-smoking ad-lib bullshit was pure cringe. Bob probably saw it and thought it was a masterpiece of cinema. Daniel (Robin Williams' character) got fired for standing up for his beliefs! That's something Bob surely can identify with.

And yeah I get that Sally Fields' character was rightfully frustrated but man did she handle like 75% of her reactions badly.

But the character development Daniel (RW) goes through really pays off in the end with that one scene where a child asked (via mail) Mrs. Doubtfire on the kids show about the fact that mommy and daddy are splitting up, and Mrs. Doubtfire's answer.
Of course this all went over Bob's head. Because he's a curtain-analyzing, crayon-eating exceptional who equated it with Dragtime Story Hour for some reason.

I'll take your word for it, I honestly didn't like P5. Call me a hipster but I just couldn't deal with how everything was overanalyzed. Then again, this is a game about Japan for a japaneese mindset. Everyone knows how in bed Politics, Organized Crime and Big Business are whithin Japanese hierarchy so it's not the same being an outcast in Nippon than in the west.

I liked P4 more because it also was a message about perception but it never bothered to ask the question, "what the hell is the shadow realms". The other realm just is, accept it and move on.

In the end, the shadows were created by the viewers themselves. Whenever there was a show or an expose about a character in the game, the audience, the populus would form their oppinion based on what they saw on the tv. The next night there would be a shadow created from the collective unconsciousness of what people assumed the protagonist was and then the "real them" would supplant it and you would get a Flanderized monster in the shadow realm. For example, when there was an expose about biker gangs, the tv showed clips of Kanji being violent. Kanji was in everyones mouth the next day so a shadow of him would form. Kanji's main issue was not that he was gay (he isn't, that's faggotry from Extra Credits), it was because he was insecure and didn't know what it was to be a man.

His shadow monster was a flamboyant fucking faggot and his shadow realm was a god damn sauna. Talk about subtle.

His dad died and left him as the big man of the house without direction. He beat up those bikers because they wouldn't let his mom sleep at night with the noise and she was getting exhausted having to run the shop on fumes. His approach was literally, "what would a man do?" so he tried to be what he thought he should. In the end, he learns that he can be what he wants, without having the pressure put on him. There's no win/fail rules to be a man and if he misses, that doesn't mean he's a flaming butt pirate. That's an image he created for himself in his head.

This is actually the theme of all your friends in the game: Chie, Yosuke, Yukiko, etc. Don't think that everything in your life is written in stone, you are not who everyone says you are. This is again, a very Japanese thing where public opinion still matters. Yukiko is the perfect daughter that will inherit her parents inn; Yosuke is the dim witted son of the local robber baron; etc, etc. These are all images that people have created for the characters that are eating at them from the inside and the shadows are just that. A mockery of what the character wants to be/thinks they are until they realize that "yes, this is a part of me but I am more than this".

In P5, your first dungeon is a castle where the gym teacher is the tyrant. There is a scene where the school's sports teams are being tortured in a dungeon. Ok, easy enough but then the dame adds 15 minutes of the characters going, "wait a minute....this isn't a castle, its a representation of the school but it's not the real school because that wouldn't make any sense...wait a miiiiinute, these is a visual representation that the gym teacher is pushing the sports teams to inhuman efforts because he benefits from it.......wait a minute...these aren't real guns because it would be impossible to have them, these are lighters in the shape of guns because if we use our imagination we can bend the rules of reality in this place that appears only in localized areas.......DO YOU GET IT BAKA GAIJIN???!
