So we’ve gone from:
I like pancakes.
Why do you hate waffles?!
… to …
Killing children is bad.
Obviously you must have brain damage that causes you to spread hateful bigotted conspiracy theories.
Somehow, reality ended up being more ridiculous and less believable than Metal Gear Solid 2.

She hosted Motaz Azaiza, the “journalist” who frequently praises Hamas, and was present with Hamas at the October 7th attack itself. So I correct myself, he only might have participated in directly killing civilians and children, but he was at least hanging out with his friends when they were doing that.

What are you talking about.
Is this the statement that made him Hamas? Fuck off with your goalposts
“If you want a besieged Palestinian to condemn it, you need to declare that you condemn what Israel [has] been doing against Palestinians before the 7th of October, since 1948 and during the genocide, and after it. Palestinians are not or not terrorists, Israeli killing Palestinians everyday like it’s a duty for them. Israel is a terror state,” Azaiza wrote on March 11, after he had left Gaza for his new base in Qatar.

The Predator was after a worthy opponent. Something to give a challenge. The IDF are just bullies with guns. Think ICE but with different brown people.
confirming that terrorist is yank for “very based person”

I watched the animated Predator movie the other day, and was miffed that
Tap for spoiler
they would kidnap people who won against their hunters, freeze them for who knows how many years (thereby effectively ending their lives as they know it) and bring them across the galaxy to fight for their lives again. Respect that the winner won you sore losers. Absolutely no honor.
No honor? The Yatuja believe that the only honor that matters is in your hunting prowess, literally every Yatuja has never lost a fight because they always fight to the death. They absolutely think it’s an honor to be brought to Yautja Prime to fight against their leader, which is why they do that instead of just killing the people who beat a Predator. That’s a huge sign of respect from them
I just feel like if they were acting honorably, they would have invited the victors instead of kidnapping them via what I assume was a cowardly ambush (based off the fact they have no memory of it), and freezing them until their loved ones were dead.
The Yautja have no concept of “loved ones”. It is specifically brought up that Dek’s older brother is a failure because he is protecting his weaker brother instead of culling him for the strength of the clan. You’re using human emotional logic to justify your opinions instead of following Predator logic. The vast majority of Yautja would be champing at the bit to fight to prove they can beat the warlord. I still contend these humans have been given an incredible honor in Yautja society
If the Predators thought it was an honor, why kidnap them? Surely they would come willingly?
A warrior’s face is the same, regardless of whether or not they chose to be in the situation they are in.
‘Willing’ implies choice, including the choice to be a coward.
Battles imply constraints and conditions you cannot change, combat proficiency implies adaptability to any situation.
The Yautja force the scenario, as a test.
Being granted the second test is itself an honor.
You were worth their time, their considerstion.
You passed round one, which is … significantly uncommon.
To them, they’ve granted you the privilege of knowing that cowardice, flight, is not an option: You must fight.
This makes the battle strategically simpler, for you, as a courtesy.
If this sounds inhuman… welcome to Comparative XenoEthics 101.
If you cancel the class, you’re expelled, if you fail, you’re expelled.
And if you even think about dropping the class: I can see the internal ongoing processes in your brain, in realtime.
Do not trifle.
Why would you care about a lesser species’ opinion? Why would you hold them to a lower standard than you hold yourself?
Well you just brought up they do have familial feelings. They just choose to be a culture centered around pointless murder around the galaxy.
Gotta disengage those mamallian parts of your brain, just use the newer, fancier bits, and the more basal, reptillian bits.
Of course they do. The first movie shows they are honorable killers / hunters. Afaik, this has always been part of their lore.
this isnt even a shitpost, its just a good post.
Predators do it for the hunt, not because of hate or fanaticism.
That’s not a shitty movie detail, that’s a depressingly accurate observation.
Lol, I just recognized the name from spending ages discussing the monarchy with this guy. Seeing this post I checked his other comments; jeeeeeeeesus.
Predator is a hunter so his threat assessment is superior to trigger happy freikorp LARP.
Predator Badlands was dope I’m looking forward to a sequel. Gonna watch Prey this weekend, see if it holds up. They’re kinda hit or miss, Aliens vs Predator should have been way better, hopefully they’ll give it another go with the current cast.
I haven’t seen them all but prey is easily my favorite.
Oh, I’m gonna carry that weight.
One thing the Predator movies always did well was giving the creature its own strange code of honor. Moments like that made it feel less like a mindless monster and more like a hunter with rules.
Better than cops too.
IDF are low bar or A.K.A. no-bar.
Make sure to turn on rebar.
