If you take issue with the things I say, discuss the things I say.

Then respond to MikkoAkure, or to Palladiamors, who actually did discuss the things you said. If what you actually want to do is defend your points, then you have people challenging them. But personally, I look at your posts and I see someone who failed to read clearly stated points in a story they played, at the absolute latest, the day before they posted. There isn't even a distance from the story to blame here; you read all of this as recently as we did.

As pointed out by Mikko, we're fully aware that one of the people with eyes on the throne wants to use it to invade Eorzea, meaning turning a blind eye to it all would be at best foolish--but as Palladiamors said, so too are we not getting blindly involved, as our explicitly stated first priority is actually to get the lay of the land. And also mentioned by Palladiamors, far from being an unwelcome presence to the proceedings, we're actually being directly invited, because the rite of succession encourages recruiting people to put importance on the diplomacy and unification that Gulool presumably values himself.

I think those are all pretty well-stated points, and I didn't really add to them because I thought that they made their points very well, I didn't have anything further to say on it. But I don't think you're interested in arguing the actual points; I think you're interested in kneejerk moralizing. Which is why you reply to what you see as a personal attack from me, rather than actually refuting the material points being put forward.
