Dickheads who lack the media literacy to realise that Agent Smith was, in fact, the bad guy.

The best bad guys are those who actually kind of have a point there, hm.

Agent Smith is a stand-in for fascism. He does not “kind of have a point”.

No I’ve recognized the virus-like existence of humans for the bulk of my 43 years. We have the capacity to do better, but don’t and that’s what makes us so fucking awful.

No one thinks they’re a bad person, but bad people exist.

So do most of the people who vote (or don’t vote) for this shit. Maybe we should stop focusing so much on how much everyone else sucks and start trying to help each other.

People giving up is what got us into this position.

More a series of ongoing failures, whittling away of freedoms, vilification of the “other” (chosen targets periodically changing), and willful ignorance spread over decades. Just seems more focused these days and across more than the US.

Eh, one bad election? Have you been under a rock? Do people forget 2016? And all the smaller elections in between then and now? Millions of us are losing basic human rights for a while now.

Yes. That’s how Trump wins in 2024.

Millions of us are losing basic human rights for a while now.

The eugenists insisting that humanity is failed and we need a grand culling to fix it are at the forefront of that effort.

But there was the tease of Mecha Metal Sonic!

Edit: Thanks to @wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com for the most detailed correction I have ever received. Your response makes the word “pedantry” appear paltry in the presence of what you have presented before us. Thank you.

um ackshually that’s Metal Sonic, first appearing in Sonic CD.

Mecha Sonic is a boss from Sonic 2 Game Gear, and is totally different.

Which should never be confused with Mecha Sonic that’s one of the final bosses of Sonic 2 Mega Drive/Genesis.

Or Mecha Sonic Mk II from Sonic and Knuckles, who is clearly an upgraded version of Mecha Sonic, not an upgraded version of Mecha Sonic.

Or Super Mecha Sonic, the transformation of Mecha Sonic Mk II, but who has nothing to do with Mecha Sonic, Mecha Sonic, or Metal Sonic.

And I could never imagine how anyone could be stupid enough to confuse them with Mecha Sonic Mk III, the background decoration from Sonic Adventure, who is clearly an upgrade of Mecha Sonic, not an upgrade of Mecha Sonic, Mecha Sonic Mk II, or Metal Sonic. (Why do I taste copper?)

But you could be forgiven for mistaking Metal Sonic for his later self-upgraded form Neo Metal Sonic, the antagonist from Sonic Heroes.

Neo Metal Sonic can transform into Metal Madness from Sonic Heroes. Only a fool would think that Metal Sonic, Mecha Sonic, Mecha Sonic, Mecha Sonic Mk II, Super Mecha Sonic, or Mecha Sonic Mk III could do that.

Metal Madness can transform into Metal Overlord, of course. I don’t know how that could be any more obvious, or how anyone could confuse this for Metal Madness. C’mon they’re completely distinct. (Does anyone smell burnt toast?)

And only an idiot wouldn’t understand Metal Sonic 3.0 is a completely new robot made as an upgraded version of Metal Sonic, created by an alternate dimension version of Eggman who isn’t from an alternate dimension but is from the future, who is a rival to Metal Sonic who is no longer Neo Metal Sonic. It’s mind boggling that something so simple could confuse anyone with a basic modicum of intelligence.

And the Metal Sonics from the Archie comics are entirely self explanatory. Why is there this wet red stuff coming out of my ears? I think I’m going to have a lie down.

I wish this comment would just keep going on forever. I played the Sonic Heroes demo once 20ish years ago. I am basically a Sanic myself.

Thank you for your thoroughness. My experience started at the Genesis with “Mecha” and was not aware of the CD variant. Your knowledge is not wasted.

Doesn’t pedantry just mean teaching? I think y’all knocked it out together, because you set him up

Edit My bad wikip says "Pedantry

an excessive concern with formalism, minor details, and rules that are not important.
