I really need to stop browsing WoT subs, I’ve been feeling liquified bits of my brain leaking out through my nose and ears for the past few days, it’s like staring directly into highly-radioactive material and just feeling your body start falling apart on the molecular level.
Literally Jordan set up the idea of there being a female dragon before ge died. It us in the prequel notes he released as a teaser for the age of legends, her title was Shadow Cutter, and you even see her in the flashbacks in rhuidean.
I can’t take it with fucking nerds who don’t even know their nerd material.
The whole premise of the series is “Vainglorious men break the world and women pick up the pieces”. Like, the Last Dragon fucked up and did a terrible job, resulting in a 3000 year long dystopia. Every man to touch the One Power since goes utterly insane and destroys everything he loves. The idea of a Dragon Reborn is absolutely terrifying for every major character in the setting, precisely because of the generational trauma inflicted in the wake of the Last Last Battle.

Rand Al’Thor
IS the Chaos Dragon that Peterson warns against. In hindsight, his entire jungian philosophy could have easily been cribbed from WoT and reversed out.
Any % no turner diaries
Easy.
no protocols of the elders of zion
Easy.
no lolita
Literally impossible
I am a female dragon reborn.
Communism is when things are bad
They really named a sub whitecloaks?
It’s a sub made by reactionaries when they found out that some of the cast for the show aren’t white.
Yeah, it’s an utterly deranged sub. But even the “normal” /r/wheeloftime sub has a ton of chuds whining about agendas and being censored, I think only /r/wot seems to be doing decent moderation of that shit (and /r/WoTshow seems to be going in the complete other direction of total adoration of the show).
The “Capitalism is the permission to keep what you earn” is just… I don’t even see how you arrive at that, like don’t capitalism apologists explicitly recognize that CEOs deserve to take all the money because of how much “work” they do, meaning that regular workers DON’T actually get to keep all they earn? Just what is even going on here.
They conflate “what u earn” with “what u are given” and don’t interrogate how its determined who is given what
So the only thing that can be not keeping what u earn is taxes. Capitalism is when no taxes.
Yeah I’ve been keeping tabs on that sub since it’s creation and it’s just so insane what will get said in that sub lol. Like at this point it’s basically exclusively reactionaries that post there, but a few weeks ago it was more of a mix of people. You’d get comments like “I’m not really a fan of how they changed Character’s story” and someone else would reply “It’s because woke feminists have hijacked our perfect story to make every male character unlikeable and stupid and frankly I’m expecting them to have Egwene be the Dragon and peg Rand while crushing his balls under 6 inch platform heels because thats what woke fascist feminists do. Also everything is gay and the characters should all be white or something.”
As you said, truly a deranged community.

Honestly at this point I hope they do. The showrunners have done a really good job, and any changes they make that piss people off only make the show better, at least for me. Also at least 8 inches. Go big or go back in the box
