>Have all the sentience, self-awareness and intelligence to be able to simply choose not to be evil
>But for some reason the series treats the entire race like they're pure evil and must be genocided
Why is this?
>>
>>288434794
it's magically coded into them
it's fantasy, that's all you need to say
>>
>>288434794
>able to choose not to be evil
False premise.
>>
>Have all the sentience, self-awareness and intelligence to be able to simply choose not to be evil
>But for some reason they never do that
It's almost as if they're evil
>>
>>288434836
Actually no, that's bad writing and presents a pretty serious moral dilemma. It's essentially another Tolkien orc moral problem.
>>
>>288434860
You're a dipshit leftist I see
>>
>>288434849
The demons are sentient and self-aware. By being sentient, and the free-will that comes with that, means that ability to choose not to be evil. The problem is that no explanation is given for why they cannot do this that wouldn't also apply to other races/characters that can.

Demonschizo thread.

>>288434877
Their emotional faculty and therefore subconscious fires differently, it's as simple as that
>>
>>288434915
Did he finally get a name?
I am so tired of his shitty threads and need a way to look them up in the archive to point them out to the uniniated, so a keyword like that makes it easier.
>>
>>288434947
Being a sociopath or having no emotions doesn't mean you can't have morality.
>>
>>288435009
Yes, it does
>>
>>288435041
Most sociopaths have morals and live completely normal lives. It's only a tiny fraction of them that end up becoming killers or bad people.
>>
>>288434794
Why didn't Frieren just use Aura tool or any magic tool(who made them?) to make all demons good?
>>
>>288435068
Aura's signature magic doesn't work 100% of the time. It's why she's beheaded all her victims.
>>
>>288434794
>Have all the sentience, self-awareness and intelligence to be able to simply choose not to be stupid
Anon, why don't you make the right choice?
>>
>>288434794
>Another demon thread
Just like you do, the demons in Frieren specifically choose to do evil. And no matter how much you protest, it's not okay, and you will be condemned for it.
>>
Is there really a difference between elves and demons? They're both long lived emotionless freaks.
>>
Why did this show attract such an insane fanbase?
>>
>>288436186
Certain race like from faggot OP feel like they're being called out and subconsciously show out their real nose.
>>
>>288436186
These aren't fans, these are demons who are mad at the perception they have that the show is popular with people who recognize right from wrong.

How many times are you freaks gonna have this fucking thread. Aren't you tired throwing the same fucking arguments back at each other like a bunch of fucking bots?
>>
>>288435275
Does tiger or lion chooses to be evil?
>>
>>288436639
Idiot moral relativists like you want us to think that a zebra in the Serengeti is of equivalent value to that of a human life. I won't entertain such demonic nonsense.
In Frieren, we are explicitly told and shown repeatedly that demons do not need to eat humans to live, and yet they choose to kill humans even when they aren't hungry, simply because it gives them pleasure and feeds their egos to cause wanton destruction and death among other creatures they know are sentient. They spend considerable time and energy plotting to do just this even though it puts themselves at greater danger and is more of a challenge. If they were unthinking animals they would hunt other animals because that is easier, safer, and actually more beneficial to their continued survival. But they are thinking, and they choose to spend their thoughts on how to do evil, because they are evil.
>>
>>288435295
Elves don't magically disintegrate instantly when they died unlike the unnatural freaks that is demon.
>>
>>288434860
nope
Tolkien was right
>>
>>288434794
Why are there evil humans when they can merely choose to do good instead?
>>
>>288434794
Can you choose to stop breathing until you die?
No, even if you could hold your breath that long, you'll eventually lose consciousness and resume autonomic breathing.
The premise of the demons is the same, no matter what they do or how they behave, they cannot stop themselves from defaulting to their base instincts.
>>
Stop being a fucking spammer and kys, OP
You're a retard and your arguments are the ramblings of an amoral madman.
Literal animals know right from wrong better than you

>>288436186
he's not a fan
