  • oh yeah of course! i didn’t go into that because that wasn’t what i wanted to convey but absolutely. it’s one thing to be able to disconnect the author from their work, and another thing to disconnect your brain from your decision making keep supporting their work financially or by spreading the word about it


  • not everyone can disconnect the author from their work, if looking at your tatto makes you think about your favourite book that keeps reminding you of how the author actively keeps making your life more miserable and considers you either a predator or a broken little girl - then yeah, maybe that tattoo is not the best thing to keep around








  • but the tower’s destruction doesn’t bring him any closer to that goal, it’s an entirely unnecessary step. the tower only needed to be built to split languages.

    besides the tower looks finished (iirc it was never finished, becuase of the whole langauge thing), and the people are upset that i’s being destroyed which- none of it makes sense.

    why would they be upset that the tower that made god mad at them and split their speech so they couldn’t communicate is being destroyed?

    why would duo be behind it? he profits from teaching languages, his work depends on there being more than one of them

    if duo is destroying the tower then the comic does not make sense within the lore of the bible. it’s as if the author of the comic only half remembered that there was some tower that has something to do with languages

    sorry for the long comment, i get unreasonably involved in logical inconsistencies in media

    huh? not to be all well actually on an internet meme but the building of the tower of Babel is biblically what caused the languages to split. the hubris of people who thought they could reach god made him decide to punish humanity by confusing their speech. duo profits from people learning languages, so he’d need to be some sort of agent of evil that inspired that hubris in people

    why would he blow it up? unless the author of the comic implies that duo just doesn’t like working and now this green owl has been chosen by god to mend humanity’s speech and he’s angry enough about it to destroy the tower that caused the split? am i reading too much into those two panels? yes
