#Lanternsfinale It's almost poetic that #Lanterns was arguably the greatest exercise in narrative gaslighting that I have ever watched. Over and over again, characters in the show tell us how we are supposed to assess other characters, or how we are supposed to interpret events, despite what we actually see being said and done. We're *told* Hal Jordan is a bitter, broken-down racist and sexist who is terrible and everyone hates him. Yet Hal Jordan is the only character actually working to save lives, stop the villains, and behave reasonably. Despite being targeted for death by a town filled with acolytes to a genocidal alien Manhunter, we *see* him trying to protect these same townspeople from the Manhunter's death rays, and he never takes a single life. Yet he goes to prison for crimes he never committed, while the collaborating Sheriff and townsfolk go free. We're told John Stewart is ultimately a better Green Lantern than Hal Jordan; that he is effectively the Chosen One. Yet we see him lie to people, torture people, murder people, and try to con a city out of billions in tax dollars for emergency shelters he privately admits are unnecessary and pointless. He lets the murderer of Hal Jordan go free, and helps to cover-up the existence of another genocidal Manhunter on Earth. He then claims a power over Earth that he was not granted, fueled by a Lantern tainted with fear. But, no, he is the best Green Lantern, everyone. Hal Jordan ultimately wanted to die and doesn't mind that the alien-collaborating, murderously unstable mother of a hybrid alien monster will walk free. The writers told me how and what to think. And, seriously, who am I going to believe? The narratively incompetent, race-obsessed Lanterns writing room? Or my lying eyes?

People really do just walk around with the idea in their heads that one can do whatever fucked up things they want, as long as their actions can plausibly be explained by trauma and emotional distress.

You realize the goal is to protect the hand, not the glove, right?

@nodyrection @FlogMma Since you are bringing up interactions, couldn't I just as easily argue that the hundreds of likes outweigh those responses?

@YellowCoatPunk Yeah, we are all laughing at the exteme demo destroying the hand inside the gloves, not at the concept of cut resistant gloves.

@Oneazix @unbaaccinated @NuclearSFilms No dummy. Im pointing out that most people are laughing at the juxtaposition while you are furious because you think that people dont understand or respect cut resistant gloves. Because you're crazy.

@Oneazix @unbaaccinated @NuclearSFilms Right. I(and the thousands of others responding to other retweets) am laughing at the catastrophic injury juxtaposed with the reveal that the gloves are ok. But you are in the bottom .1% that doesnt get why everyone else is laughing.

@nodyrection @FlogMma I think you do. You got this mad at a post about gloves. The chemicals in your brain are completely messed up.

@unbaaccinated @NuclearSFilms No thats a silly thing to say. Im just enjoying a demonstration showing catastrophic injury to show how safe you could be from a way less severe injury. Its like driving a car off a very high cliff to show how well the crumple zones work.

@nodyrection @FlogMma The goal of the glove isn't to protect your hand? What is the goal of the glove then?

@nodyrection @FlogMma Buddy every demonstration would badly hurt the wearer if they did it. Chief.

@KuraiTenshi2012 Its also an anti puncture glove. Hence the screwdrivers. Which is a silly demonstration.

@NuclearSFilms What does an engine block have to do with this demonstration? Did you watch a different one? Are you dumb?

@FlogMma @nodyrection Are you? Because some of you either didn't watch the full video or lack critical thinking. Do you agree if you did this you would be badly hurt?
