So there’s a Car Pope in Cars 2. This implies the existence of religions in the Cars universe.

ALSO:

Did Buddha car just shift into park under a tree for a while?

How do cars actually die? Moreover, what was car mummification like?

What about car JFK?

Was car Jesus crucified on a Stop sign or something?

The existence of the Jeep car implies Cars WWII, which means there was Cars WWI. What was mustard gas? Also, the hippie bus means there was Cars Vietnam and a Cars hippie movement. What are their drugs?

How do cars procreate? Is it construction like in Robots (2005)? Or is there Car sex?

There’s boats, but there’s also Car America and Car England. This means that there were Puritan Cars that crossed the sea. Did they use wooden boats? How’d the boats become metal?

Car Puritans also imply Car Witch Trials. Also, Car Christianity and Spain means there was a Car Spanish Inquisition.

How did Car Wilkes Booth jump from the theater booth after shooting Car Lincoln? Was Lincoln a Lincoln?

WHAT ABOUT CAR JFK?

What if Batman Villain’s were the cool kind of criminals and Batman was the cool kind of vigilante that lets certain things slide and Jim Gordon was allowed to be the cool grandpa he was meant to be.

The Owl House: They're only kids. They shouldn't have to deal with stuff like this.

Amphibia: Hello, 13 year olds! Here's a spell that will destroy the moon and fucking kill you lmao!

My hot take is that it's cartoonishly evil how one of the core pillars of christianity is that their goal is to convert the entire world & they explicitly state this very frequently & everybody's just like yeah that's normal

tlirsgender

Fantasy story where The Empire is very polite about their intentions when they're not actively literally mass-murdering people if they refuse to join them so nobody questions it

The book gets criticized for being unrealistic while the united states of america exists

Isn’t that every religions goal? Correct me if I’m wrong but doesn’t every religion think to some extent that everyone should be a part of their religion?

chiribomb-deactivated20220820

No. Most religions don’t. It’s just that the ones people are most likely to be familiar with, namely xtianity and Islam, are “universal” religions, meaning they proselytise. It makes sense that these would become the biggest and most well-known religions, because of this very thing -- religion was used as an excuse/justification for imperialism -- and so people often assume that’s just what religion is, but it’s not true for really most of the religions of the world.

Historically, polytheistic cultures, upon encountering other polytheistic cultures, would just assume that those gods are those people’s local gods and so on. It wasn’t a threat to them. But even among monotheistic religions, it’s really mostly just xtianity and Islam. Judaism does not care about making non-Jews Jewish; there are some basic moral principles Judaism expects non-Jews to adhere to, like not murdering, but in orthodox Judaism it is still customary to turn away potential converts three times before even considering them. The Druze religion is even more tightly closed. In order to be considered Druze, both of your parents must be Druze, and conversion and proselytism have been expressly forbidden for almost a thousand years. I’m not sure what the Bahá’í view on proselytism is, but they generally believe that the other world religions have the same core truths.

Many, probably most by number, world religions are ethnoreligions, not universal religions. That means that religion and culture are tied together. Judaism and the Druze religion are examples of ethnoreligions. That is why a person can be, say, an atheist Jew. Most indigenous/folk religions don’t care about what other groups believe and have no interest in making other people outside their culture conform to their beliefs. By number of religions, the idea that you hold an absolute truth that you must make other people believe (and the idea that you must do this because if you don’t they will not be “saved” and will suffer punishment) is very uncommon. It’s just that this belief has enabled a small handful of religions to dominate through colonialism and war and so those are the ones people think of when they think about “what religion is.”

I encourage you to read about indigenous/folk religions to understand this more. Here is a list of ethnic religions, to see the sheer number (and this is not necessarily complete, because there is some argument about terms like folk religion vs ethnoreligion vs indigenous religion and so on). I appreciate the politeness of the question, because there are a LOT of ex-evangelical atheists (or people who grew up in what we call “cultural xtianity”: you may not be religious yourself, but you grew up in a society that was heavily xtian, had xtian holidays as the mainstream, and absorbed xtian values/philosophies as part of cultural norms, and because this all seems normal to you, you have a blind spot, because it’s hard to see our own culture from inside, especially when it’s the majority) who are very keen to disparage all religions as being identical to the brand of fundamentalist xtianity they are familiar with, and it’s a racist and harmful position that they are VERY reluctant to give up. Because a lot of these religions are ethnoreligions and inseparable from culture, wanting to eradicate all religious practice/belief is the same as cultural genocide. It’s important to understand that A. you have this blind spot, and B. that most religions are not like xtianity, and religion is not synonymous with right-wing politics, homophobia, sexism, violence, controlling rules etc.

It’s kind of like how the British Empire was a profit-driven enterprise that was presented to the people back in the UK as them spreading “civilisation”, but entering the 20th century wider reporting made it increasingly harder to justify due to events such as the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh massacre, where a British officer killed literally hundreds of people because he couldn’t be bothered to disperse a crowd of protesters twice.

Kind of hard to create a hero-based narrative when you have people like Colonel Reginald Dyer at the formal inquest of the above incident openly admitting that if he had trucks with machine guns he would have killed even MORE people given the opportunity.

OHMYGOD IT’S ATTACKING THE STATUE OF LIBERTY SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING

loremerchant

I know just the man for the job.

whomthegodswoulddestroy

This is a good joke. This is such a solid, quality joke.

prehistoricsilverfish

@explainingthejoke ?

explainingthejoke

The initial image is a size comparison between the statue of liberty and a wind turbine. The wind turbine is over ninety feet (about 28 meters) taller.

A commenter pretended to misinterpret the image as one of a wind turbine attacking the statue of liberty. The next commenter answered with an image of Don Quixote, a literary character who once thought a windmill was a monster and announced his plans to fight it. They are joking that if a wind turbine attacked the statue of liberty, Don Quixote would be willing to fight the wind turbine.

Incidentally, that scene led to the English idiom “tilting at windmills,” meaning a person who has not only disproportionate reactions of anger, but disproportionate reactions of anger to nonexistent challenges.

So all those people who are fighting to preserve coal jobs and the fossil fuel economy are….

actually…

tilting at windmills.

I feel like this is one of the very few times where explaining the joke leads to another one that everyone can now understand and laugh at

Notice how Shan Yu doesn’t even question it or make a comment about “BUT YOU’RE A GIRL” he just instantly goes into a “I’LL TEACH YOU TO KILL MY MEN AND STEAL MY VICTORY” rage and I think about this a lot sometimes

ruffnutthorstonthebesttwin-deac

((Well that might have to do with the fact that he’s a Hun. Women among the Huns had higher status than their Chinese counterparts and even some of their own men. Women were free to hunt and fight along side of the men, could choose their own husbands and divorce him if she choose to. There were even records of clans being led by women leaders. So for Shan Yu Mulan is just another soldier))

Just finished Daredevil Season 3 for the first time (yeah, I’m late to the party).

>!<SPOILERS AHEAD IF YOU SOMEHOW HAVENT SEEN THIS SHOW YET>!<

HOLY FUCKING SHIT!

Honestly, this show had no right to be as good as it is. For a final season, this was probably the best way to go. All the story elements were phenomenal and the interactions between Matt, Dex, and Fisk were just fucking incredible.

Karen and Foggy were both pretty good in this season, and their arcs were pretty nice for supporting characters

Nadeem was a surprising highlight of the season for me honestly, and that twist where he gets blackmailed into Fisk’s employ by his own boss had me shook.

Dex as a secondary antagonist killed it (literally and figuratively). For a guy who’s superpower is “I don’t miss whenever I shoot or throw things,” it can be hard to make it grounded while still being threatining and cinematic, but somehow they pulled it off. Dude’s an absolute menace, and it’s a damn shame they never got to Season 4 after that Bullseye tease at the end.

And now to the biggest hitters. Vincent D’Onofrio as Wilson Fisk and Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock.

Having these two go at it again after Season 1 was refreshing after Season 2 and Defenders (not that Season 2 was horrible, but to be fair the quality wasn’t quite up to Season 1). D’Onofrio once again plays the best iteration of Wilson Fisk I’ve ever seen and somehow makes you incredibly invested in the villain’s character and obligatory monologues (something something “When I was a boy”)

And then Charlie Cox. How this man didn’t get an award for his performance is beyond me. His struggles in this season after the events of Season 2 and Defenders felt very natural for someone like him, and his decision to try and kill Fisk actually felt justified (unlike movie Batman using guns). And dear god, his “I BEAT YOU!” speech at the end felt so raw and was just incredibly cathartic.

It’s a damn shame that there probably won’t be any Daredevil shows in the future, but please Disney, if you could have an inkling of mercy for this poor soul, bring back Daredevil for Hulu or Disney+ or whatever other streaming service you have. Bring back this incredible cast. PLEASE!

thehmsseabastard

So….

I guess we are getting season 4 now….

they put the mask on my face and the nurse said ‘no jesus treatment today’

and the last thing i said to her was ‘jesus with some big ass titties’ and then passed out.
