I never wanna hear a critic ever tell me a character is too "one dimensional" and "lacking in humanity" to be realistic after all of this.

Fiction has higher standards than reality - fiction has to make sense.

Or a satire being too on the nose.

Really is too on the nose.

This is Angela Merkel, she was Scholz' predecessor. Look at her - even Putin was afraid.

Tbh, I don't blame him. She looks like she's going to eat him.

What a beautiful world when Kim looks like the most normal of the bunch.

Who's the guy with the cape in the second image?

Milei is with the chainsaw for sure, but he also dressed as a moth?

He didn't hold it like a toy. It's very common to hold puppies like that. Maybe we don't do this in europe or the usa - but many other countries do it like that. You can google it. It's nothing bad, just uncommon for us.

EDIT: Because of those many downvotes, I googled myself and found out, that you're all correct. It's wrong to hold puppies like that.

It's very common for a lion to kill all the cubs of it's previous competition in order to ensure the survival of their genes.

Using "nature" to justify something is dumb, especially in society.

Observing and learning from the natural world is in no way dumb, it is extreme hubris to think we humans are so smart that we don't have to listen to nature. Or that society gets to be somehow outside of nature. It is that kind of logic that got us global warming, obesity & diabetes epidemic, big pharma, and loss of traditional knowledge and wisdom. If I see a momma holding her cub by the nape of the neck my first thought isn't going to be that I know better how to care for her young.

Learning from nature does not equal using nature to justify behavior.

Great, you've proven you lack a basic understanding of the world around you.

If I look in your room and you aren't sleeping directly on a rock floor, your sleeping situation isn't natural and you're a hypocrite.

What did I not understand? That it is bad and you want to kill animals, if you threat them like this? Bullshit! This is quite a normal behaviour and doesn't harm puppies. And if I wanna sleep on a rock, I can do it, you shouldn't judge me for it. In fact some cultures do sleep on the hard floor. It isn't a bad thing.

If you want to show me indicators for beeing a bad human beeing search for other things.

Bold of you to assume the child wouldn't already be intimately familiar with it from firsthand experience.

You forgot Musk! I know we are all tired of him but he's still a villain that killed tons of Ukrainians by manipulating the starlink thingy

Why is Javier Milei there when he's done nothing yet? lol

Sure lets tag along someone who has done nothing wrong to the likes of Dictators, War Criminals, Insurrectionists, Drug Traffickers and Trump. Of course that makes sense

Putting Xi and Kim up there but not Biden and Netanyahu in 2023 is pretty wack, honestly.

Biden isn't really a cartoon villain, he's just a pathetic elderly person with way too much power

It may also help that Biden is simply inept and spineless, while the Oompa Loompa that preceded him was actively malicious.

Could you come up with a new term for people that you don't like? I have friends and family with autism, and they have nothing in common with these people.

It's not really fair to associate good people with these cartoonish villains, just because you don't understand autism.
