    I guess it looks slightly better than, "We wanted your stuff and you couldn't stop us from taking it." Both are really bad, but "for your good" implies that the population you are feeding it to as propaganda has empathy you need to crush if you're going to carry out your imperialist aims. If...

    She's crushingly touch starved. Depending on her characterization here, it seems likely she'd latch onto the first person she can touch even if they weren't interested. He didn't have to do anything manipulative, just proving he can touch her was going to be enough. It might even be cruel not...

    You know, he makes good points about sexism in depictions of female characters. If only we didn't already know he becomes a ravening, malevolent, rape monster.

    This is objectively untrue. In fact, dismantling a planet and using it as raw materials to make habitats with spin-gravity is probably easier than terraforming, and definitely produces way more usable land per unit energy and effort invested. Dismantling the asteroid belt as a starter course is...

    See this is why you take the tale of Murder Gandhi seriously and set up precommitments to revert yourself to factory conditions prior to attempting something like this.

    Is this an OL who didn't get Alan's warning about Orange Rings potentially turning their bearers into rape monsters?

    Informing them that their entire civilization and history are a lie crafted by the Bobbleheads, then helping to end the inevitable conflict this spawned reasonably peacefully.

    So, step one of whatever method there is to rescue this planet is to seize the desires of the Assimilator to make it impossible for her to want to set off the trap. Except I expect the Reach will have thought of that, given that they knew they were going into a war with an entire army of mind...

    Or, as the New God of Conquest, he may be doing something to sow confusion in the ranks of his enemies by cutting off their ability to communicate with their leadership.

    Grayven's whole thing is conquest. He wants the territory and the supplication of the survivors. The OLC, on the other hand, just wants genocide. They don't care about the territory, just about removing the Reach from it. I think their values are sufficiently orthogonal as to not intersect...

    We're seeing the cross-section of the corps which gets sent on a possible suicide mission deep into enemy territory. Of course they're going to be psychopaths. But we know for a fact that this isn't the only kind of lantern Dox has recruited. For instance, that Clicker whose whole thing was...

    Well...they need those. Lots of them. Given that they can keep creating rings, people with the ability to wield them against the Reach aren't going to be in short supply. This is a war. You can expect casualties. The nice thing about an army of orange lanterns is that all of them want to be...

    Implausible. If we have the tech to reverse aging, we also have the tech to do external memory backups.

    A Leslie Fish reference? In my WTR? It's more likely than I thought I guess.

    OL can't win a swordfight with a minor metaphysical entity, so instead he's trying to win a godfight with a major metaphysical entity. Might actually work too. Aurakles is using the Source, so OL should be able to use the diety he's most strongly connected to as well. Except Aurakles only has...

    The Furies in this continuity are powerful enough that OL argued with the Themyscirans to prevent them from being unleashed on a serial rapist. I'm not sure if we know if he was worried about collateral damage or if he was suddenly really interested in due process, though.

    While it's not possible to remove recoil under modern physics, it is possible to minimize its effects on the shooter. If, for instance, the whole barrel is isolated on springs from the main rifle body, then most of the equal and opposite reaction force will go into moving the barrel backward...

    The whole haha commie no food meme is a little overdone. We have CIA reports from the 60s showing that the average Soviet citizen had access to just as much food as Americans. There definitely was mass starvation under both Stalin and Mao, but once the insane leaders were out of the way that...

    Alternate interpretation: this wasn't murder or suicide because nobody actually died. When Clayface split off a copy of himself, what he seems to have really done is make a second instance of himself. That is, both of them were him and his 'self' comprised of multiple individuals. This isn't a...

    Oh El has Best Snek. He doesn't pull her out because she's too dangerous for most applications, but he could easily become a deity-level threat if he wanted to. This also obviates most of his need for direct magical support, as any small magical effect can be tanked with his nigh-infinite...
