He was a rigid general who followed orders to a fault, possibly to look good to the Federation's military leadership. He did not accept any compromise even if it meant his own men potentially getting sacrificed.

He's kind of like a lot of WW1 generals and officers who sent human waves charging into artillery and machine-guns even though that tactic clearly was not working. They were more worried about their own status and reputation over the lives of people under them.

there's nothing particularly more vile about rape than all the murder that happens in all fictional stories, you're just a feminist.
>>
>>23905936
Never heard of a fate worse than death?
>>
>>23901517
To show there's moral issues with both sides in the conflict.

>>23904055
It's also realistic. Armies rape. The armies that don't rape their enemies tend to rape their own instead. In war, some amount of rape is an inevitability. Gundam being a series that deals with many of the realities of war, it makes sense to include some.
>>
>>23907232
>Armies rape.

Zanscare doesn't. One guy executed his wingman for trying to do it.
>>
>>23905936
On one hand, yes, death is worse than unwanted sex.
On the other, there's a big difference between killing an enemy combatant under the rules of engagement, and murdering someone. Shooting the enemy is not murder, it is self-defence. Raping the enemy is not necessary to defend yourself from them. So, rape is worse than killing an enemy combatant.
>>
>>23907236
Really? I haven't seen victory gundam yet, I should get around to that already.
But even not having seen the scene in question, the fact that one of them tries at all kinda supports the whole 'armies rape' point - he feels confident enough to attempt it, which means he isn't fearing being shot on the spot for trying. Either he just happens to have a squadmate with morals, or Zanscare have tried to create a military culture that's against rape - and if they did, that's essentially the same as acknowledging it's a problem for armies, isn't it?
>>
>>23901517
They couldn't think of any way to make feddies look even 10% as bad as the zeeks
>>
Rape is a convenient plot figment in most 80s vigilante films
It's a cheap, effective way to get emotional investment
But since it isn't set up,doesn't need setup, and still has the desired effect on the audience it's basically the equivalent of a jump scare
It's just a reliable way to make you upset without adding anything of value
>>
>>23891390
Accusing Shiro of being a spy with extremely flimsy evidence, basically (he already killed legions of zeeks, he just showed mercy to one single baddie in a situation where she could have easily killed him and fled)
>>
>>23907445
This
Pro-Zeek authors and directors aren't intelligent enough to actually make a case for the Federation being evil (they are, but they are still the "good guys" by default in almost every conflict) so they just lazily show off cases of individual moral failure with shock value, when institutional failure should be the focus if you insist on shilling against a certain side.
>>
>>23907236
>Zanscare doesn't
Because they're literal feminazies.
And they are fine with female soldiers molesting little boys.
>>
>>23907456
>Pro-Zeek authors and directors aren't intelligent enough to actually make a case for the Federation being evil
They are pretty consistently shown as being corrupt and essentially for sale to the highest bidder in all the mainline shows.
They literally LET zeon drop a colony in ZZ. Zeon killed millions to win a war. The feddies killed millions because they wanted more money (because the opulent mansions they already owned weren't good enough for them).
If that isn't depicting them as 'evil' enough for you, I'd be curious to hear how you think it should be done.
>>
>>23907456
I think it's more just a problem of One Year War wank. Tomino himself paints the Federation as plainly in the wrong for the actual rest of the Universal Century and beyond with Gaia Gear. Even when they aren't the direct antagonist, they're still in the wrong like in CCA. It's just that during the OYW the federation as a whole institution being as fucked as it eventually would be doesn't mesh with the ideas of the heroes that had already been established. They would not have championed a fully evil Federation so during the OYW the evil has to be contained within individuals and we pretend they haven't (yet) corrupted the core of the organization.
>>
>>23907305
To be fair all you need to do for that is look at what the Feddies did after winning.
>>
>>23907838
>I think it's more just a problem of One Year War wank. Tomino himself paints the Federation as plainly in the wrong for the actual rest of the Universal Century and beyond with Gaia Gear.
I think Tomino's portrayal has a clear split between novels and anime. The Federation is still "good" compared to freaking Zanscare or Cosmo Babylonia in the animated side. It's not just Federation vs One Year War Zeon.
>>
>>23907877
That's the CCA thing again. The largely independent Londo Bell fights Neo Zeon in the foreground, Federation bumbles through the background. The largely independent League Militaire fights Zanscare in the foreground, Federation bumbles in the background. The protagonists are removed enough that it becomes okay to write a story where the Federation is evil because the Federation is really just the status quo. OYW is different because even White Base, this experimental solo endeavor of mostly civilians wears the federation uniform and follows orders. Tying Amuro Ray, Christina McKenzie, or Io Flemming so specifically to an evil organization feels bad and they don't want to do it. So they localize the evil as much as they can to evil units or men and allow the greater Federation to remain good, at least until AEUG rolls around to shift our perspective off of one specific side.
>>
>>23907907
I mean, Victory has a big Federation fleet sacrificing themselves in the final battle to help beat the Zanscare. It's really not even a CCA situation where they were foolishly trying to negotiate peace even though the other side wasn' interested in that at all.
>>
>>23907934

What about the ceasefire negotiated in Victory episode 36? Zanscare was stalling for time to complete their Angel Halo weapon.

It seemed more like he had a personal vendetta against Zeon, which might have been foil to Shiro's ideals. If it wasn't for Aina, he would have gon3 full Zeon genocide like this guy.

>Victory has a big Federation fleet sacrificing themselves in the final battle to help beat the Zanscare.
Yes, but that feels more like them coming to their senses and breaking from the malicious incompetence and/or status quo of the Federation in order to defend Earth. And might literally be that? I forget.
