Wheeee posted:in all fairness, at least up here, not everyone who becomes a cop is a bad person. most in fact probably arent! poor bastards grew up devouring the propaganda which tells us all that police are selfless heroes working for the public’s safety all cops are bad people what they were like before joining the force isn't important, save that they thought being a cop was a great thing to do with their life

Main Paineframe posted:all cops are bad people I don't believe that all cops are bad people but automatically presuming the one you end up delaing with is a bad person is sadly the only rational survival strategy. If their official rules dictate than in case of doubt, presume the person is dangerous, you kind of have to presume the same; it's basically prisoner dilemma, basic game theory.

Can't come into your house unless you invite them in need to use special (armor piercing) bullets to kill them You need to act docile and subservient around them or they'll kill you

Retromancer posted:need to use special (armor piercing) bullets to kill them one of the conjectures about where the idea of needing a silver weapon or bullet came from is that in the context of these stories is a feudal society where the local ruler would be expected to protect the populace so the requirement of a silver weapon ensures that the people require the rich guy to save them with his precious, pure, metal

fuedal serfdom primarily looks worse than capitalism due to the material conditions of the time versus ours, when you examine the actual fundamental power dynamics the only real step forward that capitalism took was changing the barrier to entry to the privileged classes

At one estate, the serfs sacked the manor house, killed the knight, and roasted him on a spit in front of his wife and kids. Then, after ten or twelve peasants violated the lady, with the children still watching, they forced her to eat the roasted flesh of her dead husband and then killed her.

Droit de signeur has never ever been a thing outside of people convinced that the medieval period is always worse than what follows it and certain fetishists. It's like chastity belts.

Yeah, it was (and still is, check the mideast thread of despair for examples) pretty common to accuse your opponents of being inhuman rape monsters, and then people take it as real historical fact and then you get game of thrones.

They acknowledge it happened and don't claim that the numbers were exagerated, but using the word genocide is a no go because it makes Turkey upset.
