Then there’s this weird sequence where God sees things are good and destroys each one in sequence, until nothing remains.
But before that, He takes Adam and sucks all the air out of him, after which Adam turns into dust.
And before this, he takes the day off, then spends six days destroying the earth, until it was formless and empty, darkness covered the deep waters, and his spirit was chillin’ out over the waters …for whatever reason.
But then she comes back again, and they both disappear
They would get naked before vomiting the apple. It’s ok. She’ll feel better once she talks to the serpent.
Nope. Doesn’t make sense in reverse either.
With no apologies for resurrecting an antediluvian meme: still a better love story than Twilight.
19 minutes on "Twilight wasn't that bad"? No thanks! I get enough lies from politics.
It's extremely poorly written, it glorifies abuse and toxic gender roles (probably influenced by the cult Meyer herself is a member of), and it has ABSOLUTELY had a negative impact on the world in general.
Did fans of it deserve all the abuse? Of course not.
Did the books, the movies, and the author, though? FUCK yeah!
if what you got from that was that "twilight wasn't bad" you need to work on your English. tons of media glorify the things twilight glorifies, and more. none of them get the immensely toxic hate that this series did. so that argument doesn't hold water and it's mostly just cover.

I didn't watch it, I skimmed some of the comments to see what it was about and whether it was likely to be worth the equivalent of a TV episode of my ADHD-riddled attention.

That's a whataboutism. That other media deserves related criticism too doesn't mean that Twilight and Meyer don't. It also doesn't mean that they aren't especially egregious offenders.
so that argument doesn't hold water and it's mostly just cover.
Nah, your "but other things are toxic too!" whataboutism is what doesn't hold water and is just a cover for an incompetent and harmful franchise.
first of all, if you didn't watch it stfu and move on why are you commenting
second of all that's not whataboutism, it's context. the question isn't who deserves criticism, it's about what is specifically different about this particular piece or media that made it a target for such immense hate. your "harmful" bs is just cover. harmful media doesn't get this hate. even more harmful ones. and there are tons.
i hated twilight too btw. one of the rare movies i couldn't sit through, and quit halfway. i usually watch even bad movies to the end.
but that doesn't explain the cultural phenomenon that hating it became.
it's about what is specifically different about this particular piece or media that made it a target for such immense hate
First of all, the vast majority was ridicule rather than "hate". Your histrionics aren't helpful.
Second of all, it invited special amounts of scorn and ridicule for being extraordinarily bad and for its popularity giving it tremendous reach to cause tremendous amounts of both annoyance and real harm. Just like Donald Trump gets more scorn and ridicule than your average awful county level Republican who's not everywhere all the time.
your "harmful" bs is just cover.
Nope, it's accurate, though it was far more infamous for being bad than for being harmful. Hence the criticism being much more ridicule than serious criticism.
harmful media doesn't get this hate. even more harmful ones. and there are tons.
Again, textbook whataboutism. The treatment of other harmful nonsense doesn't determine whether or not Twilight deserved the ridicule and criticism it got.
It ABSOLUTELY did, no matter how many other poorly conceived things received less than they deserved.
but that doesn't explain the cultural phenomenon that hating it became
Say you have no idea how memes and culture in general works without saying it 🙄
The worse you are and the more pervasive you are, the bigger the target you become. Being a Donald Trump sized culture phenomenon that was almost halfway as toxic and unavoidable, Twilight deservedly got almost half as much scorn and derision in its time.
first of all, if you didn't watch it stfu and move on why are you commenting
I'm not commenting on the content of the video. I'm commenting on why I'm not wasting 19 minutes of my undivided attention on a defense of Meyer and her harmful amateur level garbage.
If you still aren't getting that, just like you're still not getting what whataboutism is, maybe it's YOU who should stfu and move on.
The book of job is about a side that is doing really well in life, until god takes away his family and fortunes. He is angry at god, but ultimately, god caves and restores his former life.
God in that story
Don't leave this dude home alone again, he comes up with some weird stuff
The Saw films are canonical sequels to Home Alone. Kevin got a taste for booby traps and inflicting pain on unsuspecting people, and took it to the extreme.
Don't threaten us with a good time 😄
Also, god turns the woman into dust and a rib and buries it into the mans chest. Then he walks the man around the garden, progressively making him stupid and finally turning him into dust. Then in 7 days he removes all the stars, animals, trees, etc and finally turns the light off and continues being god.
At last, sweet release.
And then Noah gets 2 of each animal to wait out a flood! ....wait...
No, he stuffs a whole bunch of animals in a ship on a mountain, and months later there’s only 2 of each that come out. After which he dismantles the ship as his friends and neighbors laugh at him.
Wait, isn't that just Ragnarok?
I hate to make it even weirder, but getting... erm... "unborn"... is not quite the same as being killed. Methinks it would be more like a scifi movie where an alien force absorbs everyone on Earth.
That sounds pretty fun. Can someone make a video game about that?
