I think that should be 'doling' (as in to 'dole out', rather than anything to do with dolls
)
I really don't think that Maxx Crowley was being literal about it, he's simply justifiably freaked out at the amount of sympathy a character who holds a really horrifying belief system is getting (sure, she hasn't been able to practice the nastier parts, but she didn't see anything wrong with them, either), and probably didn't want to count up the specific percentage of people making statements that look supportive.
I have done the same before, when the thread got too toxic and the updates less interesting . It also helped that I got caught up in one sitting.
Not from the local people. They have other priorities.No one protests the destruction of the forrest? Aww
No. While he might well not have been celibate, for the most part the Children of Dawn were his children in the metaphorical sense. No harem.
'Freedom fighters'.
Thank you, corrected.I think that should be 'doling' (as in to 'dole out', rather than anything to do with dolls
Wolf Krieger would never tolerate his God-Fuhrer being Canadian.I think that they're doing a good job of narrowing-down who's responsible. Here's hoping it isn't a Danner-enhanced cloned Hitler in a Wendigo suit.
I'm wondering if the blood that DID fit was compared to that other blood. If the enhancile is that worker and deliberately got himself cut again as a way to explain why his blood was there.
No, but that's a lot clever than what actually happened. Well done.
D) Paul isn't about to do something that will make it more likely the Nazis with Kryptonian tech will try to attack Earth-16. That's the sort of thing which will result in significant casualties on the good guys' side.
That said, a warning: One important trap to avoid falling into is "X is a belief of evil group Y who we know have false beliefs A, B and C. Therefore X is false.".
Which is a problem - democracy might be the best type of government, but there's a lot of things wrong with America's democracy and there is space to improve.I, for one, am actually looking forward to the pony episodes. They'll probably be quite interesting.
I like the vast majority of Zoat's writing, it's very rare that he does something that annoys me.

Not all of the Nazis/Hitler's beliefs will be incorrect and immoral (the classic example is veganism).
Similarly, not all brainwashing is to instill incorrect beliefs. The classic example here is belief in democracy that's drilled into children at school.
Of course he would be. "Shoot first, ask questions later" is the hallmark of bad judgment.
She won't, but not for some fourth-wall reason. She won't because she's not mentally unstable. She's not going to "snap". She's basically a soldier, and if ordered she'll kill someone without losing any sleep over it, but she's not a crazed lunatic that's a hair trigger away from killing someone on a whim.
This is reasonable -- keep a potential threat contained for evaluation. It's nothing permanent, easily rectified in either direction if it turns out you were wrong.
Brainwashing requires "systematic and forceful means." Persuasion isn't brainwashing. And brainwashing, like any other form of indoctrination, is intended to result in someone who uncritically accepts dogma as truth without reflection or introspection. OL is doing very much the opposite -- he's trying to induce the reflection and introspection that Overgirl's upbringing never let her have, in order to let her come to a different conclusion on her own.

Well... Were behind everything.
But not because Hitler did it. Because of characteristics intrinsic to the creed.
Obviously.
I don't know where you're getting this harem thing from? There was no harem. None.
I believe he isn't too worked up about it because unless you have a power ring and can convert a person's cells using the Danner formula, you're limited to the usual method of operation of the formula, i.e injecting a pregnant mother with the formula. Since Paul is hardly going to be volunteering to convert Light members using the Danner formula that means that he's got 16 years or so until Danner-enhanced Light operatives become a problem.
There are several points in favor of it.
Given that earth has technology that shits all over constructs (The crumbler tech) and has several magical applications that thwart it, I really would not be surprised if Lex couldn't whip up someway to induce Danner enhancement in full grown adults.
