*The winner of this matchup will represent their bracket in the inter-group finale poll(s).

PROPAGANDA:

[Stan]

"It would be funny if the twin of the winner won."

"He would be an amazing dad, even though at first he is gruff and a bit reckless, you can see as the series goes on, how deeply he loves and cares for the people closest to him, he would do anything for his family, and he would be the most dedicated dad out there."

"Gotta get both twins knocked up."

"why should Ford have all the fun? also Stan would be a WAY better dad than Ford."

"HED BE SUCH A SINGLE DAD I NEED HIM PREGNANT AND STRUGGLING WITH A BABY AND RAISING HER THE BEST HE CAN AND SOMETIMES FAILING BUT OVER ALL MAKING IT WORK I CAN PICTURE HIM USING HIS PREGNANT BELLY AS AN ICECREAM TABLE WHILE HE WATCHES DUCKTECTIVE AND PERIOD DRAMAS."

"He's the sexier more breedable brother to me but also I just think it'd be funny if he won the second time around since Ford won the first one :)"

Grunkle Stan propaganda from last season

[Starscream]

"He would be STRUTTING with it. He's gonna raise an ARMY of LOYAL UNDERLINGS and they're going to make him RULER OF THE UNIVERSE. also he would be fucking miserable and so so angry and i think that would be fun."

"I need need need my conniving flying bastard man to be pregnant, he'd be so insufferable about it. Can you imagine? TFP Starscream would use his pregnancy as a way to manipulate the autobots and pretend to "care so much about my precious baby" and then he'd stab everyone in the back. G1 Starscream would have a bunch of grand dreams of shaping his baby into the ultimate Megatron-killing weapon and then they rule the galaxy together."

"I need to see him manipulate someone into getting him pregnant only to abort it in an attempt to hurt them only to have no effect at all. I need this."

"He’s funny and endlessly miserable in most continuities and I think being pregnant would make him happy even if he complained about it at the time."

"LISTEN……. It would be funny as shit if all the time he tried to usurp Megatron he succeeded in the one thing he didn’t want and lost so disgracefully. And in some media interpretations having “kids” or pets mellows that fucked up prideful and very much traumatized abused but unwilling to admit it and look for help man."

having OCs is bourgeois

people who write erotica should be considered sex workers

only americans believe in aliens

it's misogynist to draw touhou characters with big boobs

the "godzilla" franchise is harmful because it teaches children that they should be afraid of lizards and other animals

…This is legitimately how people who say “you can’t ship Zukaang because Aang used to be Roku and that would mean Zuko is dating his great-grandfather” sound to me lmao.

This is such a goofy reason to use to argue against a ship, because souls cannot be “related” like biological people are. That is not how reincarnation works.

By the “Zukaang shouldn’t be shipped because Aang used to be Roku” logic, nobody should date in the Avatar universe, because it is heavily implied that ALL humans reincarnate (except in very rare circumstances like with Iroh and the people who get thrown into the Fog of Lost Souls). So there is always chance that a character is the reincarnation of their love interest’s relative/ancestor, or vice versa! Uh oh!

So he’s simultaneously pushing Ratchet back behind him, while also making sure Ratchet’s spark is doubly protected– If anyone returns Shockwave’s fire, if a stray shot hits Ratchet, at least it likely won’t permeate both Shockwave’s armour and Ratchet’s own.

A strategic move from a master of logic, as there’s enough room here for Shockwave to have pushed Ratchet back with his shoulder, thus leaving his other hand open to potentially wield another weapon while also shoving Ratchet fully behind him–

–However, that would possibly have left Ratchet more vulnerable to any open fire or ricochet shots from the sides.

Shockwave has Ratchet behind him at an angle here, diagonally opposite from where the “enemy” is facing them.

This helps potentially minimise the likelihood of Ratchet being directly hit by anything, as any shots aimed their way from the direction the Autobots would be firing upon them would then have to go entirely through Shockwave first; It would be hard to hit Ratchet from the side here, intentionally or accidentally, providing him with better overall cover.

Drawing a clear parallel between the moment Alicent was violated into making her son and the one her view on him shattered because he violated her-
