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.
Its b/c they specifically responded about Jewish people. They’re outing themselves as child murderers b/c they feel attacked by the statement.
I… I know that… I’m just trying to point out how the insanity knob appears to just ratchet forward and there seemingly is no way to dial it back… we’re just gonna keep cranking it up untill it blows out the amp, so to speak.
I get blanking everything unimportant to get the point across, but I do wonder what the rest of the text said…
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.
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.
One mans kidnapping is anothers escorting.
When you’re a Predator, they let you do it
Just grab em by the skully
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.
confirming that terrorist is yank for “very based person”

All Terrorists Are Woke
IDF hates kids, think opposite of Epstein circle. Predator is impartial towards kids.
think opposite of Epstein circle
In no way the Epstein circle is the opposite. Rape is not love, those people are rapists not pedophiles.
that was dark humor not factual. I also enjoyed making a connection between two vile organizations. even though it looks like an anti connection the whole point of the joke is to make them look similar, precisely because of the reason you mentioned.
Not to ruin the shitpost, but Predator didn’t attack the child only because it posed no challenge.
Yes, that’s the point. The predator won’t attack a human child because they are incapable of defending themselves. The IDF doesn’t care about that.
Not exactly. The predator won’t attack the child because it would be boring to do so, not some ethical reasons as stated in the meme. I guess IDF finds it entertaining enough.
IDF delight in killing children.
Both are psychopaths but one seems to have slightly higher standards
The alien sport-hunter who kills people to collect their bones as trophies is not a role model!
This is why I’m team xenomorph. No agenda, no philosophy, no sermons. Just equal opportunity face-hugging and chest-bursting.
Don’t fuck with team Yeerk, they’ll get in your head before you know it, live there rent free.
The andalorians were the real assholes the entire time.
Andalites.
… But yes. They’re fucked up too.
Doh. Thanks.
This is the way… no wait thats from the Mandalorians
I mean Predator seems kinda woke with that rainbow view, so it only makes sense.
this isnt even a shitpost, its just a good post.
Of course they do. The first movie shows they are honorable killers / hunters. Afaik, this has always been part of their lore.
Lol, I just recognized the name from spending ages discussing the monarchy with this guy. Seeing this post I checked his other comments; jeeeeeeeesus.
There’s a difference between predators and fascist psychopaths
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.
Hah memes are funny.
deep sigh
Predator is a hunter so his threat assessment is superior to trigger happy freikorp LARP.
I don’t know about your country specifically, but here in France hunters regularly shoot at cyclists. Their main union even complained about a new law imposing a legal limit of blood alcohol content during hunting sessions.
our hunting regulations are all over the place but there was a period in history when a number of prominent politicians got killed during hunting “by accident”. oddly enough they had ties with russia…
If predators have a union in your country the problem is deeper than you think.
