Lupin III Part 2 | Creator: Monkey Punch | Studio: TMS | Japan, 1977-1980  

Avatar

This particular episode was directed by Hayao Miyazaki.

Considering how many guns Fujiko takes off of these goons she surprisingly doesn’t shoot many of them.

This scene is the one of the best scenes in all of Lupin media

1. Up to this point in Part 2, Fujiko had been a token character with Lupin having to do all the heavy work to save her AFTER she screwed the gang (Lupin, Jigen, and Goemon) over from the heist’s treasure. This is truly the point where I came to actually like Fujiko and call her a girl boss.

2. Hayao Miyazaki was the director of this episode.

3. The villain of this episode (the one who threw the bomb) went on to inspire Doctor Eggman from Sonic (this is real and on the wiki so if you think you saw Eggman in the few seconds of the video you are not crazy)

Anyway so in this video we will be breaking down-

New character again, probably for DnD. they do not have a name and also live in the monster filled, very dangerous woods! alone! yay~

Just some more drawings of them, now that they have a name. They have been given the name Carthalo.

Cromwell’s brand of Puritanism is also where America’s prosperity gospel hails from, in addition to the Puritans being at least partially responsible for the British leg of the Transatlantic Slave Trade if memory serves.

Also, fun fact, the Pilgrim’s trip to America was actually funded by corporations in Europe, with the understanding that the companies would provide the settlers with ships and supplies, and in exchange the puritans would build a trading settlement and send back X-amount of whatever interesting crops or materials they find/grow as a return on their investment. Again, hardly the tale of a group of honest religious folk fleeing prosperity in a new land.

Similarly, the fact that the Pilgrims moved into an area that had been left depopulated due to a pandemic that had swept the continent (meaning many found crops already planted, homes already built, and graves full of “treasure” like grave goods to steal...) doesn’t get into the narrative either.

Likewise the amount of people sent to America who were indentured servants, criminals, and random homeless people that were rounded up and sent over seas (the idea being the urban poor would be able to find a better, more profitable life growing crops for some rich plantation owner in Carolina than they would living in Southwark)... This likewise didn’t work, as they rarely had the knowledge, experience or desire to become a farmer in a land thousands of miles away, hence why many of them realised that if they just used kidnapped people to do the work instead they could make money while not doing any manual labour.

All of this is 100% true. Another example of rewriting history to make it palatable that has been taught to young children basically since public schools were founded is the Thanksgiving Day story. What we are taught: the pilgrims came to America to escape the Evil Evil Church of England, and they were starving! And winter was coming! But there was a native american named Squanto who worked hard and learned english, then introduced the pilgrims to his tribe. They all became friends and threw a big celebration feast and they lived happily ever after. The end. What really happened: Squanto had been a slave in England, was set aboard a vessel to the Americas in order to help capture more native americans and force them into slavery, but escaped when he got there. He made his way back to the village he grew up in only to find that the entire population had been wiped out by either slavers or smallpox. Since survival had a lot to do with relying on a community, when a ship full of pilgrims arrived he became friends with them - by speaking the English he was taught while a slave. He took them to the (now empty) village, and showed them how to tend the crops that were already growing. The shelter was already build. There was already stored food, and he showed them how to get more. Then he negotiated peace between the settlers and the Wampanoags. Then, yes, there was a feast to celebrate the peace. One time. With one small group of pilgrims, the Wampanoags, and Squanto. Meanwhile, the Puritans were busy coming to America in boatloads. Their entire goal was to take land and resources, capture young, healthy men and women as slaves, and kill everybody else. The second "Day of Thanksgiving" was a celebration of the massacre and capture of over 700 Pequot tribe members. All ages and genders. More were celebrated later for similar reasons. So it went until Abraham Lincoln declared Thanksgiving Day to be a national holiday, and the "official" story was spread across the US in an effort to bring people from the northern and southern states together.... on the same day he ordered the military to march against the Sioux. Womp womp.

Happy Thanksgiving, America....

Oh wouldn’t this be tragic if word of this spread out everywhere possible?

I’m like 99% sure that per our new ridiculous law, simply sharing this would theoretically make someone who lives in Texas and passes the info to another Texan (who uses this service to abort) suable for one of those $10,000 anti abortion bounties. Even though the org can’t be sued.

So let me be clear I’m definitely not sharing it for any of my fellow Texans to use 😇

Please spread the word so that ANYONE WHO NEEDS AN ABORTION IN TEXAS KNOWS

that this illegal service is illegal and bad.
