I think you could be right, but it depends on the details Nintendo comes out with. I remember people were saying that they thought certain Palworld monsters had been ripped from the Pokemon games and recolored - if Nintendo can demonstrate that, then that's a slam dunk for them.

But if it's just creature designs and collecting them, then I just don't think that "a cute monkey with green fur" is a novel enough concept to be defensible against someone else doing something similar.

Dunno why this thread is filled with people equating Hezbollah and Hamas

Because the kind of person who sides with Israel heavily overlaps with the kind of person who assumes that everyone in the Middle East is the same and that they're all terrorists.

The Whiskey Rebellion was a response to taxation that unfairly targeted the rural poor. George Washington crushed it.

the FSB couldn’t find any Nazis for the livestreams

Brother, there isn't a single picture of a single Ukranian military unit taken in the past ten years where somebody isn't wearing a fascist symbol of some kind. The reason the SMU stretched on is much more material - the Russian leadership greatly overestimated their military's capabilities.

5 - it’s just imperialism. They want to control more territory, so they do

Your definition of imperialism is straight out of the 3rd century BC, comrade.

Hyper focusing on the 11- or 9-dash line is a lie by omission. China's usage of and claims to the area predate the Republic of China too, and are established in multiple treaties signed by the Qing with colonialist powers, which is what I was referring to. Like it or not the PRC is the successor government to the ROC even though the ROC still exists in Taiwan, that's why the PRC eventually took over the UN security council seat, and because of that by precedent the PRC inherits the ROC's territorial claims, who inherited them from the Qing.
