Title: Episode 69: The State of the Micronation is Strong
Post by: Psammetichus on August 07, 2013, 10:50:31 pm
This is my favorite episode since I really enjoy reading and learning about international politics and the such.

It's hilarious how coy the leader of Malatora thinks he's being, while actually being extremely obvious. There are only about five major islands in the Gulf of Guinea, and one of them is home to ten million metric tons of toxic waste and seven million metric tons of radioactive waste, along with an ecosystem about to "collapse due to the massive waste dumping." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annob%C3%B3n#Waste_dumping)

So it's not that island. So there are four islands Malatora could be on. Regardless, I doubt the São Toméan military would have any trouble defeating the five or six dehydrated, sweat-drenched furries dying of yellow fever that were dumb enough to land on the island. The São Toméan military (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_of_S%C3%A3o_Tom%C3%A9_and_Pr%C3%ADncipe) is small, but they have machine guns and armored vehicles and missile launchers and 20,000 civilians fit for military service.

And it just me being super liberal, or does this whole episode have a subtle undercurrent of racism when they always talk about taking over the island? He just assumes he'll walk onto the island and bam, it's his. What if the army attacks him? Well, he'll just fight back and win, just because. As a civilized (i.e. white) person, he'll be able to land and immediately build a country so advanced they'll be in space in forty years. The natives with the backing of an entire African country are just to stupid to understand. Or maybe I'm just over thinking this.

What does anyone else think of this episode?

But they won't be dragons when they invade the island. Their flabby, pale bodies will be the ones forced to fight the São Toméan military.

This is one of my favorite episodes just because of how delusional it is.

The nuts and bolts of their plan are never explored. They just wank over how awesome they'll be as robot dragons with a space program and hardware more advanced than any other nation on earth, even though they will have access to no naturally-occurring heavy metals, rare-earths, or the kind of insane power requirements needed to run a STEM R&D complex.

I own a .22 rifle, two AKs, and a 9mm handgun, and I guarantee you that makes me more heavily armed than the Malatoran military. I don't think even a levy-type army on São Tomé would break a sweat firing warning shots at the aluminum outboard bass boat these guys would be coming in on. I would love it, I would absolutely love love love to hear details on their opening moves and not more on their endgame where they're already totally successful and all-powerful.

Of course, I already know what's up. Taygon never really expected this to take off, he just enjoyed mentally masturbating over his power fantasy, getting back at all those people who teased him in school for his no-doubt abundant social awkwardness. Since it was just a fantasy, it didn't need in-depth planning. Just skip to the fun part of talking about all the different types of robot we can offer people!

I own a water pistol and have access to two cats. That makes me more heavily armed than the Malatoran military. I also used to wear braces, which means I'm much closer to being cybernetic dragon than they'll ever be.

I seem to remember from the SA thread that the Malatorans planning for their dragon bodies to be very slow flyers, hoping that "increased maneuverability" would help them defeat modern jet fighters.

Their plan failed to take into account ground-based anti-aircraft weaponry, which would absolutely rip them to shreds.

Also, their plan failed to take into account the fact that you can't put your brain in a dragon body, but that's a minor detail compared to their tactical missteps.

Also fighter jets don't have as much trouble with "very slow flyers" as they seem to think. Helicopters are goddamn fish in a barrel to a fighter jet.

I think they were basing that design decision on the episode of the Simpsons they saw where Sideshow Bob steals the Wright Flyer.

It's probably actually the Night Witches, the all-lady Russian night bomber squadron of WW2, or perhaps the equally romantic Carl von Gustav and his ultra-slow and extremely effective bombers.  The upshot is that very fast aircraft of yore did have problems with really narrow engagement windows that slow fliers would present, especially since they could only be targetted visually.  A helicopter is an easy target because it's full of metal and isn't shaped to be radar-stealthy.   An ultralight, especially one with a mostly-wooden construction, might well still be a hard target to hit with a modern fighter for all I know, but I still wouldn't gamble on it faring well against a modern army.

But what the hell, let's just point at another pop culture thing.

Post by: Psammetichus on August 08, 2013, 10:15:54 pm
I don't understand why they're so concerned with fighter jets. Do they just consider jets the pinnacle of modern military technology? Because if somehow they managed to get a foothold on the island, I'm sure they'd just be annihilated by a drone controlled by some person in Virginia.

But of course, since they're not interested in being diplomatically recognized or the Geneva Convention, the São Toméan military would just execute them or, at best, convict them of murder / attempted murder and then execute them. They won't be recognized as enemy combatants or the military personnel of a foreign power, they'll just be criminals.

You make some good points. So as long as the only aircraft engaging the dragons are Cold-War-era flying bricks like the F-4 Phantom II, they'll be set! I mean, robot dragons seem like they would be both full of metal and stick out like a sore thumb on radar because of all the curved surfaces.

On the other hand, I'm sure Taygon would just write down "also they're invisible to radar because technology" and be done with it, 'cause that's how he roll.

Well, chaff is basically a cloud of aluminum strips, right? So an aluminum dragon is like a big piece of super-chaff! It's so brilliant that it just might work.

Has anyone mentioned yet that the robodragon bodies were going to be made of aluminum? Because it's very light, you see. Strong, too! They make baseball bats out of it. Clearly, it's the ultimate metal, and a perfect choice for our new immortal chassis!

I remember someone in the SA thread describing the group's entire mentality on accomplishing all this stuff as being based on them assuming real life is like Minecraft:

"Well sure, we'll get to the island, punch down a few trees and make some wooden pickaxes, then we start mining and we'll build some stone pickaxes and a furnace and before you know it we'll have the materials to craft our robotic dragon bodies and go to The Nether!"

Speaking of ill-advised takeovers of islands, a group of fundies tried to secede by boat because of all those darned abortions (http://www.hattiesburgamerican.com/usatoday/article/2639835/).  The attempt to Swiss Family Robinson it up didn't work for some reason, possibly because they did not realize that the island they were headed for was 1) over 2,000 nautical miles away and 2) their sailing experience was JESUS SAVES.  The captain that eventually picked them up cited their location to them as "the middle of nowhere".  In an uncanny similarity, even if they had somehow gotten there, the island in question is overcrowded, threatened by climate change, and irradiated (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiribati) to the point that the governor has urged citizens to get the hell out for their own sake.

They've now resettled in Arizona to work on "a new plan".  Maybe Dragon Jesus is right for them.

Heh, yeah, I'm sure they'll do that right after they acknowledge Trinitarianism isn't a Biblical teaching.

Anyway, while we're on the topic of island takeovers:

Operation Red Dog (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Red_Dog) was the code name of a plan by Canadian and American mercenaries, largely affiliated with white supremacist and Ku Klux Klan groups, to overthrow the government of Dominica, where they planned to restore former Prime Minister Patrick John to power. ... On April 27, 1981, Droege and eight other men, including Canadian James Alexander McQuirter and American Don Black, were arrested by federal agents in New Orleans as they prepared to board a boat with automatic weapons, shotguns, rifles, handguns, dynamite, ammunition, and a black and white Nazi flag.Quote from

And Don Black is the guy who started Stormfront! (He learned computer programming while in prison for Operation Red Dog.) If only he was an Aryan dragon.

With the internet, it seems like every other thread is a "make Isfahan see red" thread. Internet dorks are the best at idolizing the military, and many of them have taken out second mortgages to insure their collection of Hanzo steels and replica airsoft guns, but for all of their enthusiasm they know little to nothing about either of those things. They sure love to talk about them, though.

I think it's amusing and sad more than outright angering, unless people are actually misinforming others or being unsafe in such a manner that others could get hurt. What's most amusing are all of the Wannabe Neos who think posing with a gun will automatically make them look badass. More often than not it's with an airsoft gun. I'm sure the fatbeards behind Malatora fancy themselves quite the intellectual badasses in that regard.

I can quite easily summarize the difference between the civilian and the military mindset regarding guns:

A civilian first takes notice of how cool a gun looks.

A soldier first takes notice of how heavy a gun looks.

I know I probably don't need to tell this to anyone here, but being a soldier is hard work and there's tons of bullshit you have to deal with on a daily and weekly and monthly and semi-annual basis. Even in the heaviest of combat-arms units, it's 95% physical labor and patrolling and running and mantling and going prone and waiting, 5% shooting. At the most. Think about that the next time you see a YouTube video of some lard-ass in tactical gear practicing his "combat survival skills" by shooting cardboard when a few laps around the block and some sit-ups would do way, way more for his survivability.

Well, it's unwillingness to conform to the regulations themselves. For women, hair cannot touch the collar and bangs cannot be so long that they cover the eyebrows or otherwise require the wear of hair clips or barrettes to stay out of the eyes. If hair does touch the collar or cover the eyebrows, it's not some social taboo that's frowned upon, it's against the rules. Either you get a bob cut or you bun that shit up while in uniform.

As a cytran dragon fox cat I was gifted with the knowledge of the mysterious 'cylinder gap' from birth and I am not foolish enough to make such an easy mistake. That's not a misfire or a malfunction, that's just a poor human falling apart when he stuck his digit into some flaming gasses and metal bits. not like those would hurt a cytran anyway. cytran 4 lyf

Yeah, the wound was on his left thumb, so he was using a pistol-style offhand grip for a revolver, had his thumb so far forward that it crossed the cylinder gap and it got blasted.

This is the cylinder gap:

(http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh198/jriler/BarrelCylinderGap_2.jpg)

When you shoot a revolver, gases explode laterally out of that tiny gap, making a knife out of fire and pressure.

(http://cdn2.cheaperthandirt.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/cgblast-copy.jpg)

See where that left thumb is in relation to the blast? On automatic pistols you can put your offhand as far forward as you like, because there's no cylinder gap.

(http://www.topohiker.com/news/newspics/Shoot/Grip.png)

Try this grip with a revolver, however, and you'll get your thumb seriously hurt, as Tim demonstrated.

He was also wrong about putting his thumb in front of "the barrel" since that implies he stuck his hand out in front of the entire gun. He didn't. He was just using the wrong two-handed grip on the revolver because he started shooting one without the proper training.

I was just playing video games and listening to The F Plus and something hit me.

I think I know where the Dragon's Mantra (http://fedcom-online.webs.com/more/dragon_mantra.htm) comes from.  There's a game, Divinity 2, that I like a lot.  One of the main plot points is that you get trained as a dragon by getting sent into a dungeon with all these trials.  And this:

The Dragon is wise, a sage among the ignorant.
  He knows: not all that glitters is gold.

The Dragon is as agile as he is strong.
  Before the wings comes the feline leap.

The Dragon is perceptive, his eyes alert as his mind.
  Only he discerns a difference in a mirror.

is, verbatim, from that section of the game.  It also makes a lot more sense, because the second one comes before a platforming section where you have to jump a lot and the third comes before you have to find the difference between two mirrored sides of a room.

One of my favorite things from the SA thread is that the Malatorans planned to get into Sao Tome by convincing the government that the mountains had valuable gems. Then the government would let them waltz in and do all the mining (but then secretly they'd set up their country of cybernetic dragons).
When asked what they'd do to actually provide the gemstones they were sent to mine, the dude in charge said that they'd just create artificial gemstones and that would fool the government.

Another fantastic thing is that the lead dragon dude wrote a novel about how he and his boyfriend would become hermaphrodite dragons (because then it wouldn't be gay. Not even joking.) and live in Malatora and everything would be great. The sex scenes between the two were written as badly as you'd expect.

The story is entitled "Reborn," and I saved a copy because it seems like the sort of thing someone would try to erase from the Internet forever in embarrassment a couple of years down the line. I've only skimmed it—because, like most selfish collectors, the having of the thing is more important to me than the appreciation—but it's full of passages of wanking over how awesome and superior dragon Cytrans are, with no efforts made to conceal the author's misanthropy or sense of entitlement.

Ugh, that story.  Most of it was just embarrassingly funny to skim through but I remember some point near the end he writes about how his cyberdragon body malfunctions and forces him to rape his boyfriend and it literally destroys the boyfriend's robovagina.  And then his way of trying to make it up to him is by giving himself a vagina as punishment, which he then masturbates with and is in awe at how his boyfriend could ever hate it.  I'm never going to forget that horrible thing.

Ugh, that story.  Most of it was just embarrassingly funny to skim through but I remember some point near the end he writes about how his cyberdragon body malfunctions and forces him to rape his boyfriend and it literally destroys the boyfriend's robovagina.  And then his way of trying to make it up to him is by giving himself a vagina as punishment, which he then masturbates with and is in awe at how his boyfriend could ever hate it.  I'm never going to forget that horrible thing.

Real goddamn romantic, that's for sure.

What the actual fuck? Why would anyone actually get off to that?

I forgot to mention that not only was the main character a self-insert of the site owner (which shouldn't surprise anyone), but he also inserted his internet boyfriend into the role as well.  Taygon lovingly wrote about how his character raped the character portraying his actual boyfriend, while simultaneously trying to frame himself as the real victim because he literally could not control his body.

And yeah, the hermaphrodite thing was his way of trying to reconcile that he was e-dating another man while not wanting to be gay.  As long as A penis interacted with A vagina, it didn't matter who owned what as long as both penises weren't used at the same time.  It's not gay that way, you see.

Between that, SEX BROOD, and Roosh's Bang series, I feel like you guys could do a pretty strong episode just based around readings from the idiots of previous episodes.

I'm into the idea as long as I don't have to read fucking Roosh again.

"Fucking Roosh" of course being the working title of the Bang series.

One of my favorite things from the SA thread is that the Malatorans planned to get into Sao Tome by convincing the government that the mountains had valuable gems. Then the government would let them waltz in and do all the mining (but then secretly they'd set up their country of cybernetic dragons).
When asked what they'd do to actually provide the gemstones they were sent to mine, the dude in charge said that they'd just create artificial gemstones and that would fool the government.

This just shows how little research they've done, because a) if there were any diamonds, the Portuguese would've found them and sold them and b) Sao Tome is sitting on about ten billion barrels of oil, and they couldn't care less about the very limited amount of gems those mountains could theoretically contain when those sweet, sweet petrodollars start pouring in.

Also, there is another example of this whole undercurrent of racism that seems to infuse Malatora. "Oh yeah, we'll just fool those dumb natives, they can't compete with our superior Anglo-Nipponese intellect and industry. Just a handful of us will be able to outproduce those lazy natives. Alas, such is the Anglo-Japanese Man's Burden!"

e: "Just as the Dutch bought Manhattan for sixty florin, we too shall purchase this island using these anime DVDs, thus bringing civilization and kawaiianity to these heathen savages in darkest Africa!"
