pick up your fucking duel disk and start organizing your deck instead of pretending to be the King of Games. You don't even have Exodia.
saying something this edgy does not absolve you of the shadow game penalty
edit: for anyone stumbling into the drama, i probably should have elaborated on this post. I am not saying you can't make fun of Seto Kaiba not being able to beat a Dark Magician deck with the entire supply of Blue Eyes White Dragon cards in existence or anything, but at some point it becomes self-flagellating. to quote comrade JoeyWheeler:
It's good to challenge Kaibacorp in all of its incarnations at all time. It's certainly good to refuse to be proud to be a Kaibacorp certified Duelist considering what the concept of Kaibacorp's dueling is.
It's another thing to performatively hate dueling in a cocktail of millennial self-deprecation and liberal duelist's guilt. It's not revolutionary, and it's probably not good for you.
that is all. comrades just know i dont hate any of you. i'm not trying to start a slapfight. i just saw this as weird performative behavior and wanted to call it out.
bad bit and probably
Can we not make memes trying to reignite a struggle session?
I'm just posting stop ascribing intention to my actions and grow up
okay but I have to deal with it when stuff like this invites people to reignite a recent struggle session and it is really annoying, just letting you know. I thought it was funny for what it's worth. It's only bad because it's just baiting people into arguments again.
you've activated my trap card and are now in an argument with me
if the community could nip the underlying problem in the bud, and then we wouldn't have to worry about goof posts, imho.
Yes and we should and I feel like joking about a serious underlying problem in this way is in bad taste and the OP should not be so defensive about a bad joke.
Nobody ever mentions Red Eyes Black Dragon on Red Eyes Black Dragon violence when it makes up over 70% of all Dragon violence!
I’m sorry, does no one care about the BABIES? I’m very concerned about this time wizard guy, what happened to the baby dragon?
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
This doesn’t make sense because duelists and KaibaCorp are actually separate entities, and duelists have a genuine vested interest in despising KaibaCorp (their greed and active manipulation of card quantities to their own advantage)
oh yeah..? why does every generation of duelists use kaibacorp technology?? why does Kaibacorp offer contracts to professional duelists???
Because they benefit directly from the continued existence of duelists and want to create a loyal Kaiba-Duelist fan club. Dueling has been an important form of self-defense for all classes of society going back to Ancient Egypt- this is just the latest in many attempts by capitalists to fully claim it for themselves. Allowing them to commodify dueling would be suicide for all working class people.
All attempts to discard the proletariat must be frustrated, by dueling if necessary.
