[(Anonymous)]

This is a common theme in everything today.

"But muh feeeeeeeeeeeels!"

[(Anonymous)]

Sarcastic internet slang in quotes adds nothing to the conversation (and it's stupid because you aren't quoting anyone).

[(Anonymous)]

It's a secret about Disney sequels FFS.

[(Anonymous)]

I feel this sometimes. I think part of the reason I like certain shows like Daredevil and Arrow is it's painfully obvious that when they get heavily emotionally involved they're about to make a mistake.

[(Anonymous)]

I agree with your point. I'd like to note though that oftentimes people will SAY that they're basing their decisions on logic, when they're actually basing them on emotional reasons. This makes them hard to reason with and difficult to understand.

[diet_poison]

Can you give an example?

I think there are times emotion has a place, even in logical thinking.

No idea if what you're talking about would apply there or not though.

[feotakahari]

See also: science versus religion, as if those are things that are "versus." Science is a methodology--this is what the world is--and religion is at least theoretically about values--this is how people should behave. Science's understanding of the current situation should inform religion's attempts to change it, not be set up as opposed to it.

[diet_poison]

Science v. religion really gets my goat too, and I see this mindset from both sides of the "debate". As someone who cares about both, I wish I didn't have people on both sides telling me I'm doing it wrong.

[(Anonymous)]

*this is how they would like people of that particular religion to behave

Fixed that for you. Really gets my goat when people act like we'd be mass murdering unethical baby rapists without some kind of religion as a moral compass in our lives.

[(Anonymous)]

exactly.

People who want to make "science" an ideology make the same methodical mistakes as creationists who try to make the bible a basis of "science"

[(Anonymous)]

Not entirely. Both science and religion attempt to tell us what the world is, science based on study and evidence, religion based on mythological narrative. Religion also includes behavioral dictates because entire cultures have grown up around those narratives, but at its core, it's an attempt to explain how and why the world functions.

[(Anonymous)]

I've seen this a lot, but religion also at least makes a claim about what is true (and what that means for our moral system). The whole purpose of science is to actually work out what is true. The idea that they operate in completely different regimes is slightly off.

[(Anonymous)]

I like that you say as a more logical person you dislike this trope, cause as an emotional person, I dislike it too. I am often very aware my emotions aren't correct or are steering me a wrong way, so I really don't like when people act like emotions are the end all be all of decision making. You need both.

[(Anonymous)]

Ironically, my logical side tells me to follow my emotions because if I'm not happy or I don't find an emotional resolution I'll stay stuck in the same place with lots of regrets, so it's better to let that shit play out and then work on moving on.

[(Anonymous)]

I think one thing is just slightly more marketable than the other, which explains its prevalence in media.

[(Anonymous)]

Emotional reactions have become the preferred thing. Sadly, it's resulting in a society frozen at nursery school level, but there you go.

[ketita]

I thought it was especially painful here because the message of the first one had more to do with honor and doing the right thing, and then suddenly this one comes along and nobody cares about any of that, it's the feelings train all the way to feelingsville.

[(Anonymous)]

there was definitely a play on yin and yang in the first movie

she was trying to balance femininity/masculinity

also severing others/finding herself

[(Anonymous)]

Mulan 2 is one of the very few Disney sequels I actually like (and I mainly like it for that hanging from the bridge moment than anything else), but even as a kid, I thought there was something weird about Mulan putting her feelings before the duty she was assigned and kept thinking she was gonna get in trouble with the emperor for letting his daughters marry commoners.

[(Anonymous)]

Don't worry, because in the real world, the actually false dichotomy privileges logic over emotion. You're good.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, I was going to say something like this. Hasn't it been the opposite ever since the "age of reason?" I was very confused and going, "At least it is swinging the opposite way?"

[(Anonymous)]

yeah, I think that's the reason media so often portrays it the other way around, as a "balance" of sorts

[(Anonymous)]

Strongly disagreeing here. I don't think the evidence points to that at all, but rather to quite the opposite. How much political discourse is based on no real evidence and degenerates to a screaming match? How many ignoble and selfish acts are justified by "romantic love"?
Emotion is king is almost all public and private discourse.

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, THIS. Thank you, fellow nonny, because I seriously stared at this secret and wanted to talk with its maker about trading social/professional circles at least for a week or something, like Trading Spaces?
