The EULA wand glitch however was the true defeat, as the last soul fragment lived inside Voldemort, so it was the final destruction of his soul.




I still don't see it, no. At that point, Voldemort was mortal and having EULA glitches was not a requirement, just a convenient excuse to let the MC easily kill him without extra casualties and having to set up whatever all the other Elder Wand-wielder-victors did to kill Elder Wand wielders. Voldemort relied on his immortality and infamy more than raw magical power. Once he was in the middle of Hogwarts, surrounded by his enemies, no longer immortal and suffered a massive aura loss, defeating him in combat was just the wrapup.


The snake was chronologically killed last but Harry had set it up by telling Neville to do it. It was also not the most narratively significant one, it didn't require sacrifice, just plain old Gryffindor sword, like other horcruxes before.

It is one of the most anticlimactic defeats out there




Well, yeah, because that wasn't Voldemort's defeat, that was just taking him out. The climactic defeat was when Harry sacrificed himself (as far as he knew) to destroy the final horcrux keeping Voldemort invincible. (Technically not the final one chronologically but narratively it was.)

Indeed. You can see in other cases how McGonagall is all for reckless/hardheaded displays of main character aura heroism, provided you get away with it. Book 1, troll episode: "five points will be awarded to each of you for sheer dumb luck". Book 5 she's covertly but shamelessly assisting Peeves the poltergeist in his vandalism.

Of all the web serials I've read, I don't think even one approached War and Peace in terms of production value per chapter, for what it's worth. Then again, I didn't like War and Peace and liked most of the web serials. Maybe I'm giving Tolstoy too much credit, the joke goes he was paid by the word.


I didn't finish PGtE either, felt too sloggy. Mother of Learning I liked, even though the prose is obviously second-language English (thankfully not as bad as Reverend Insanity).


Web serials are, I suppose, for the same people who like TV shows over movies. They like the setting, might as well watch the events unfold for 60 hours (12 books) instead of 2 hours (1 book) where all the scenes and character interplay would be necessarily compressed.


(Funny enough I dislike TV shows, primarily because they consume my time at a fixed rate. A web serial I can just readingspeedmaxx.)

If you're now claiming that the statement you made was false for the purpose of hyperbole, I think that's inaccurate, but justified.




I was claiming, admittedly hyperbolically, that if no one invented underdog morality, all stories would be about the overdog winning.

At 11 years, being ahead of my peers in academic terms was definitely most of my personality, so I'd probably be a shoe-in for Ravenclaw. I suppose I'm fine with that. It would likely stop me from getting complacent on that front.

You're attempting to imply agency would be displayed by switching to your side, the unpopular and demonized side. How much more of a free thinker I would be if I only shed the Jewish lies!


Leaving aside the fact that it wouldn't, your side is just plainly worse for me, which you've so far said nothing to disclaim.

I'm not a Brit.


There are a lot more people than you seem to think, agentic people with thoughts and words to say, who at best don't care, at worst (for you) spiritually benefit from the country club blonde Aryan being dragged through the mud. It will not be enough for you to win by showing that Jews convinced me their way is better; you have to actually prove that yours is better.

He doesn't have to be the greatest evil ever for me to dislike his ideology. He just has to have been an enemy of my country and my demographic, which is trivially true for both and not explained away by Jewish cultural coding.

You can blame the guy who has singlehandedly lost so much aura for the Aryans that no one a shade of hair of skin darker than them wants them to have control of the culture again. Or your good friend AvocadoPanic who'd have us watch "AvocadoPanic is better than you: the movie".

The explicit topic of the discussion is whether or not there is a trend of underdog media dominating and whether or not Jews are behind it.


The implicit topic of the discussion is whether or not it's a good thing, in particular for whites.


I'm arguing it's better than the implicit proposed alternative of "I want a movie where the tall good-looking kid kicks in the short whiny kid's teeth". I don't think I'd really enjoy seeing even one token overdog movie. I can just look at real life if I want a big-kid's-values-reinforced story.

The story of the underdog defeating the big dog is at least as old as David and the Goliath




Well it is a Jewish story as well, isn't it? At least it is Jewish enough that I am inclined to allow SecureSignals to give the International Jewry credit for it, because I actually prefer underdog stories.


Currently I find that the story of the big kid beating up small kids finds plenty of traction as long as the big kid has the moral* high ground. I am not interested in watching stories where the big kid beats small kids up simply because he can and that is the entire message. If that means that the small kid in movies will always be coded non-Aryan, I'll take that trade. My hair is not particularly blonde, anyway.


*there is no master morality and slave morality, there is just morality. A definition of morality which is indistinguishable from rule by the strong is simply rule by the strong. There cannot be two distinct concepts that are the same concept. From then on, you can have various degrees of explaining why the loser is sometimes more worthy than the winner and in what ways.

Every time I think you can't make the Jews look even cooler. Now you're telling me they were the ones who spared me from being subjected to endless cultural veneration of the big kid's boot on the small kid's face, forever?

I think it's very simple and understandable. America is openly being a boorish bully and it is obviously a repulsive idea to submit to it. Canada's government is an incompetent boss and while it might well destroy everything good about the country, it requires a lot more epicycles to even start being angry about it, not to mention things like thinking of migrants as invaders and other stuff like that.


Many Canadians will be actually dead of natural causes (or have a doctor take them out before those natural causes do them in) before any postnational doom scenario actually sets in. It is just not as viscerally upsetting as Trump getting his way.

This strikes me as when a reddit atheist meme smugly says "if you believe you're going to heaven and heaven is so much more important than anything on earth, why don't you let me kill you".


It is obviously bad to be killed (even as the more articulate Christian replies with "that would be aiding you in committing the sin of murder", which I believe is post-hoc reasoning and not something that is the first line of mental defense against the idea of being killed), and it is obviously bad to be dominated by a contemptible enemy.

A drag queen singer had been the mainstay of Eastern European pop music in early 2000s.

Bulverism is a logical fallacy where you assume an opponent's argument is false and explain why they hold that view instead of actually proving why the argument is wrong.


Particularly useful for shutting down criticism of "successful" people because there are countless avenues one can measure success by and find the critic wanting.

A lot of your argument's weight hinges on obscuring "what Trump has accomplished" behind vague superlatives like "getting to the top of the top".


For the record, I don't agree that POTUS is such a height of power as you imply, either. As I said, its power is mostly the power of the US, which Trump can't take credit for. Any random tinpot dictator in a shithole country, who rules for life and at whose word countless detractors go to prison or disappear, is more "the top of the top" than Trump. I grant that you don't get there by being an idiot. You also don't get to any of the numerous unelected posts between which the power of the US government is diffused by being an idiot.


Getting to the post of POTUS while LLMs are smarter than you (this is Dase, "LLMs are smarter than X" is not the same as calling X retarded as far as I can tell of him) is not something that requires outstanding intellect. It requires mostly other things, and if you're literally a clinical idiot then it's unlikely you have those things, and most of the time a president is not going to be stupid. But it's not a requirement.
