You discriminating against the dead? Lifeism enabler!

MY rotting corpse just has some stiff joints, that's all.

Obnoxious, lying, seditious, narcissistic, rotting corpse vs. tired, confused, rotting corpse.

You forgot felon and rapist for the first one

[–] Squirrel 16 points 4 months ago

Ah, so I did. Not sure how I managed that, considering how relevant those points should be here.

I'm concerned about the less rotted corpse employing living humans. Sounds like nepotism to me.

why does it say 2056 when this is already happening in 2024

Biden should be the last time the Democrats put forward a senile old man as their presidential nominee. Even if he wins this election, there will be another one to fight in 4 years time and the fash might not lose again.

It should be the last time they put a candidate that nobody wants. Remember 2016? They don’t.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

That's not totally true, it's just who the ownership class wants. They're the only real people anyway, we're all just labor.

Glad to see things will improve in the US!

"Rotting" is a state that won't last past the middle 30s. By 2056 they'll be fully decomposed.

A friend of mine just sent me a Facebook link that says that decomposed candidate #2 was caught taking bribes from corporations ...... and that they're a communist.

They both start with C, so it sounds legit.

Who do you want running the country? The litch or the revenant?

If you've ever watched Overlord you'd know the dead deserve to rule over the living

Anime has a disgustingly right wing bent, which should be expected from a country that's been run by the right since 1955 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1955_System.

It's almost like the main cast is supposed to be the bad guys

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

I've only finished the anime up to season 4, but I don't think the theme is that "Nazarick is evil and evil skeleton overlord is fun", but rather "do the ends justify the means Nazarick takes", given that Ainz wants to create a utopia where all races live in harmony. It's very interesting writing given how much time and humanity is given to side characters that are eventually destroyed or imperialized by Nazarick.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

They are somewhat nuanced and ideologically motivated bad guys, I'll give you that. And it does make the anime interesting, especially compared to your standard isekai/VRMMO anime

For someone that hates the right you make a lot of generalizations. Every country with power is a mess politically, but that says nothing about their art.

Depending on the tier of undead.

But Slightly More Rotting Corpse has the better environmental policy which we'll need before the last remnant of Florida is fully swallowed by the sea in the next 4 years.

For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the Master of Mankind by the will of the gods and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium, for whom a thousand souls die every day, for whom blood is drunk and flesh eaten. Human blood and human flesh – the stuff of which the Imperium is made.

You forgot the orange spray paint.

Remember the good old days when we got to choose between a giant douche and a turd sandwich?
