Heres the high score of shame for the last thread. drat, I've only been on SA for less than a year and posted enough to reach the top 20 :stare: I blame me being bored in quarantine.



Man, I'm still impressed/horrified at myself for getting the dubious second place, even when I try to stay out of thread derails.

I have an addition to follow up on The Great War youtube channel. Indy Neidell is now working on World War 2

What an unnecessary thing to say about someone. Especially about someone who's been very open about their depression. Just say that you're excited about the content.

I didn't realize he's been dealing with depression. I dont follow social media all that much for content creators outside of the thread. I just thought he looked rough from months of quarantine like a lot of people probably do. I'm sorry.

With all that said the amount of harassment the guy gets is unwarranted. Criticizing his analysis and his weird takes is one thing but there is a Chris-chan style hate group that actively torments him. Don't be like that.

It is nice to see the USA barely manage to toss out a racist that nearly half the country voted for.

That being said, Dan, you're in Alberta, you should know we've got enough poo poo to deal with. I'm in Ontario, so it's poo poo here too. Our glass houses just happen to be thousands of kilometers of empty forest and mountain that hides our own disastrous humanity.

Isn’t armor in Star Wars supposed to be some sort of weird flexible plastic-metal anyway (to cover how all the armor in the original movies was very obviously some cheaply produced injection mold plastic)? I imagine titty armor is less of a liability in the pastfantasy spacefuture than in medieval times since its not serving the same use case

Stormtroopers and Clone Troopers wear plasteel (aka plastic steel) that is cheap, flexible, gives great protection against shrapnel and doesn't stop blaster bolts for poo poo.

Mandalorians wear Beskar or Durasteel. Beskar, or Mandalorian Iron, is extremely tough and energy resistant to the point where it can deflect lightsabers, though prolonged contact will melt through. Durasteel is more common and cheaper. Mando's suit in early season 1 was a mix of durasteel with the only full piece of beskar being his helmet.

That discourse also died a quick and quiet death in the Mandalorian TVIV thread, which is amazing because TVIV is an even bigger poo poo pile than this thread tends to be. More hay has been (rightfully) made over the fact that Gina Carano recently outted herself on Twitter as a right wing conspiracy nut, political violence advocate, and transphobe rather than whatever impactless dumbfuck thing Anita Sarkeesian said about boobie armor.

Meanwhile my youtube recs are completely hosed because the anti sarkesian chuds and thin skinned star wars youtubers have been losing their minds over the weekend making videos pointing and shrieking over the boob plate criticism.

And they keep getting recommended to me as videos that people who watch Jim Sterling also watch, which is weird.

I've tried rewriting this post about five times now but all I can say is that this is really dumb and the gravitational pull of people capitalizing on Sarkesian tweets has meant that even my youtube subscription feed of historical armour and HEMA practitioners are losing their poo poo over this debate.

It turns out that just because you read a lot of history books and fantasy does not mean that you can actually write it. And to be honest, while I'm not defending his trashy novel, it's really not out of the ordinary for a lot of bad fantasy to get hung up depicting rape for weird reasons.

Arc Hammer

A defense that's also used is that "it was like that back then" which is a pretty fundamental misunderstanding of how ancient societies worked. They had laws. Lots of people hung up on the Viking craze are all about the raping and pillaging but the British Isles had pretty extreme laws against assaulting women even when the Danelaw covered most of the east coast with Danish settlers. Sexual violence obviously happens all the loving time and it's terrible but it's not a valid defense to put it in your story "because that's what it was like back then" since it was considered just as heinous back then as it is now. It's hack writing to either make you sympathetic to a female character in lieu of giving her actual character, or it's an attempt to make an edgy story about a lawless world that doesn't represent the reality you're ostensibly drawing inspiration from.
