Lmao such a Liberal response to say “hey we pretend the slaves are our friends so that makes it better”.
No that makes it worse you fools
This is fine from a media criticism angle but you phrased this post kinda like the Pokemon are real and actually your (like you the player, nor your avatar in game's) literal slaves.
I’m talking about the text and the comments in the OP justifying it. Weird derailing and overly defensive comment.
There’s nothing immoral about being evil in a video game. I love doing evil playthroughs in RPGs and killing innocents and stealing and all that. I don’t come up with an elaborate ideology for why I actually am a good guy though out of character online, why it’s actually fine to slaughter the weak. That’s what people who defend the Pokémon universe from a moral perspective online are doing when they say stuff like “Pokémon are actually our friends and volunteers”.
Just say “yep we are enslaving em and battling em because it’s fun”
It’s the difference between someone who likes playing 40k and the lore vs. someone who spends all their time literally arguing online why the Imperium of Man is justified and good.
Not really defesive since i ageee with this criticism of Pokemon. Its just about your phrasing which i am semsative to neurodivergently.
Disengage
slaves loved working thus it was morally correct to enslave them = pokemon love fighting
