''The World War is at its inmost core one of the biggest decisions in the evolutionary process of humanity in the struggle to decide whether in the future the Mammonistic-materialistic worldview or the socialistic-aristocratic worldview should determine the fate of the world.''

So today I learned...
Tumblr media
of the existence of the word, mammonist.
I can't help but imagine Mammon getting such an inflated ego upon learning that there's a word named after him

I just discovered new words
mammonistic (adj): greedy
mammonism (n): the pursuit of wealth
mammonist (n): one devoted to the ideal or pursuit of wealth
Ex: Mammon is a mammonistic mammonist who is committed to mammonism
Well. This will inflate his ego... Yup I can see it now.

...Can you please decide how intelligent you want to be, writers/translators? XD

Still impossible to get much of anything out of the Mammon tag without running into Obey Me! stuff. Might end up making my own little page/graphic or something.
Also, might talk more about the intersection between being a Mammonist and being impoverished/low income. It's been interesting, certainly.

Bhagavad Gita Chapter 3, Verses 15-16: कर्म ब्रह्मोद्भ‍वं विद्धि ब्रह्माक्षरसमुद्भ‍वम् । तस्मात्सर्वगतं ब्रह्म नित्यं यज्ञे प्रतिष्ठितम् ॥ १५ ॥ एवं प्रवर्तितं चक्रं नानुवर्तयतीह यः । अघायुरिन्द्रियारामो मोघं पार्थ स जीवति ॥ १६ ॥ karma brahmodbhavaṁ viddhi brahmākṣara-samudbhavam tasmāt sarva-gataṁ brahma nityaṁ yajñe pratiṣṭhitam evaṁ pravartitaṁ cakraṁ nānuvartayatīha yaḥ aghāyur indriyārāmo moghaṁ pārtha sa jīvati Regulated activities are prescribed in the Vedas, and the Vedas are directly manifested from the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Consequently the all-pervading Transcendence is eternally situated in acts of sacrifice. My dear Arjuna, one who does not follow in human life the cycle of sacrifice thus established by the Vedas certainly leads a life full of sin. Living only for the satisfaction of the senses, such a person lives in vain. The mammonist philosophy of “work very hard and enjoy sense gratification” is condemned herein by the Lord. Therefore, for those who want to enjoy this material world, the above-mentioned cycle of performing yajñas is absolutely necessary. One who does not follow such regulations is living a very risky life, being condemned more and more. By nature’s law, this human form of life is specifically meant for self-realization, in either of the three ways – namely karma-yoga, jñāna-yoga or bhakti-yoga.  https://vedabase.io/en/library/bg/3/15/ https://vedabase.io/en/library/bg/3/16/ https://vanisource.org/wiki/760308_-_Morning_Walk_-_Mayapur https://prabhupadavani.org/transcriptions/?audio=Has+audio&type=Bhagavad-gita&chapter=3 https://prabhupada.io https://prabhupada.io/books/bg/3 https://bookchanges.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Bg-Chapter-3-diff.htm http://www.govindadasi.com https://www.facebook.com/govinda.dasi.9 https://vaniquotes.org/wiki/Main_Page https://youtube.com/user/AmritanandadasRPS https://sites.google.com/view/sanatan-dharma https://m.facebook.com/HDG.A.C.Bhaktivedanta.Svami.Srila.Prabhupada.Uvaca/ https://www.bhagavad-gita.us/famous-reflections-on-the-bhagavad-gita/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CiIB-eDsPtw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

BnHA Ch. 345 - Review, parallels, and comparisons
[Note: For a round up of locations and where everyone is at the end of the chapter, see here]
Let’s start by appreciating Monoma’s maniacal grin as the fixer, the mover, the shaker, and the conductor. He is amazing. It’s exactly the rabid energy I need in my life right now!!
Hmmm, the panel with the un-Crust(able) hero is interesting. The Viz translation has the villain saying, “You mammonists must have sunk a fortune into this plan just for this?” Now, I know some weird words, but WTF is a mammonist? Apparently it’s an archaic word meaning one devoted to the greedy pursuit of material wealth and possessions. In other words, someone who worships money like religion, which isn’t archaic at all. It’s really funny to me how AFO has convinced his followers that he is like Stain, destroying the false heroes who care only for fame and money to give so-called villains a fair shot at life. It’s a classic tale of have-nots uprising against the upper class, right? But that’s not quite what’s happening (especially when heroes have Cementoss, Power Loader, and the support course making Troy, and all the remaining heroes working for free.)
Tumblr media
AFO is merely creating a narrrative. He doesn’t give a shit about classism or forms of government. His sole concern is that he runs the world for eternity. He dismissively compares people to cheap lighters and won’t hesitate to toss them aside. He’s not here for a revolution, or to help anyone except himself. If the heroes can expose that and develop a new narrative….if they can get some of AFO’s lieutenants to speak out about his real goals… they might have a chance to win the numbers game.
Ohhhh Hawks, attempting murder as soon as he sees AFO. I mean, he’s not wrong, but there’s…certainly a pattern. The man is too fast, and he goes for the kill too easily. I do enjoy that Monoma opened this portal in the air specifically for Hawks and an initial air assault. They’ve also got Pixie Bob and Kamui Woods to take advantage of the mountain/forest terrain (which, presumably doesn’t have cell towers or anything that can relay radio waves). And boy do I want to see what Tokoyami can do.
Tumblr media
That brings us to Endeavor, whose quirk doesn’t seem to be suited for the environment. We also have Endeavor telling AFO that AFO’s hubris [meaning excessive pride or confidence, particularly in defiance of fate or the gods] will be his downfall. It’s…a choice. Of course, AFO uses this as his chance to monologue. He shows off how he grasps the heroes’ plan, which he assumed last chapter was All Might’s plan and not Aizawa’s. (AFO’s “fair enough” also sounded a lot like All Might’s response to Stain’s challenge that he’s not the “real” All Might.) Interestingly, when Endeavor first faced AFO in Kamino, AFO mocked Endeavor’s Number Two status, saying he “climbed high” cleaning up the “mid level” Nomu, which caused Endeavor to confront for the first time how he destroyed his family.
Tumblr media
AFO also assumes/questions whether the heroes have decided to use “One for All” against “Tomura.” I love how he dehumanizes Izuku despite knowing his name, but calls his “new me” meatsuit by the first name “Tomura.” It’s a great way of continuing to spin his narrative that HE cares about people when he doesn’t and it’s the HEROES who see people as nothing but quirks to be used. What a performance AFO is putting on for his followers. I’m curious if we’ll ever get an Endeavor response to AFO’s barb about Shoto “cleaning up” Endeavor’s mess and the “unceasing abuse” toward Toya.
Tumblr media
Speaking of, who put up the new sign on the All Might statue in Kamino? Ah well. Kamino is a good choice for a fire battle, as it’s a wide open space surrounded by building and concrete that’s already been destroyed.
Tumblr media
Over at a floating UA, poor Shigaraki seems quite confused. Unlike AFO, who immediately understands the plan and begins forming a counter strategy, Shigaraki just floats and asks “What’s going on?” There are so many possibilities here with how Bakugo and Best Jeanist could approach Shigaraki in this state, I don’t want to speculate. Just peep Jeanist’s new face buckle that actually says “BJ” on it. Way to up your branding game for the apocalypse my dude.
Ok, NOW it’s Toga time!!! This chapter is bookended with her; it starts with Toga seriously freaking out over being in the cage. Being trapped/caught is her worst fear, and the heroes don’t even realize that they have triggered her. The chapter ends with her creating her own red string of fate tying herself to Izuku, who we know she “likes” and wants to talk to. They’re at an aquarium, landing in some kind of shallow pool. This gives a tactical advantage to Tsuyu and Gang Orca but also…it dilutes blood. At least, that’s the only reason I can think of that the heroes decided to surround Toga with water.
Tumblr media
We shouldn’t be surprised that Toga yanked Izuku away; during the forest camp raid, it was Toga distracting the group that allowed Mr. Compress to nab Bakugo.
Tumblr media
We also shouldn’t be surprised that Izuku’s Danger Sense didn’t go off. Much like how All Might didn’t feel any bloodlust from Stain, Izuku’s not feeling any danger from Toga because she doesn’t intend to hurt him. Moreover, despite appearing at AFO’s side, Toga doesn’t want to destroy everything. (I wrote about it more here.) She wants to protect what she loves so she can get closer to what she loves. In MVA, she made this very clear to Tomura, and after fighting Curious she questioned whether the LOV has a choice in destroying what they hate.
Tumblr media
In fact, Toga previously used Izuku’s blood to help the heroes at the end of the Overhaul fight by alerting Ochako and Ryukyu to the underground fighters’ need for backup. Yes, she did it partially to screw over Overhaul and was not purely motivated by desire to help the heroes, but she still helped rescue Izuku and Eri, and gave Ochako the ability to evacuate Nighteye. Further, given how Toga thought about Izuku trusting Ochako multiple times, I suspect Toga wants to experience that kind of intimacy and trust. She can literally transform into anyone, but she can’t create that kind of trust. She can only mimic it or borrow it temporarily. She wants and needs real friends.
Tumblr media
Remember, Toga wears her emotions on her sleeve. When she’s happy, she smiles. When she’s sad, she cries. When she has questions or is confused, she wants to talk things out, specifically with Izuku, Ochako, and Tsuyu. The only time we’ve seen her smile this arc is a soft smirk as she holds Twice’s blood…

Brand's being anti-capitalist is actually kinda funny since he's one of the few Advisers that's in a business suit XD
It’s exceptionally funny for a guy who used to work under (and I say this with only the greatest of affections) a bunch of upper management types and a politician. But you’d better believe I was obsessively taking notes about it anyway!
The Japanese word there translates somewhat more literally as "mammonist"—what Viz uses—or, if you don’t want to put a Bible-derived term in the mouth of a Japanese character, just “money-worshipper.” And that is extra funny to me because it was not even twenty-five chapters ago that we were told about Nedzu’s “deep pockets” such that he could afford to pay for the upgrades to U.A.’s security systems,(1) so it’s not like Brand’s even wrong.
I mean, obviously we’re meant to see Brand as wrong about his summation of the heroes’ motives, but with this most recent chapter especially, I am once again left shaking my head that, on one side of this fight, we have the wealthy, handsome, popular, elite, well-educated, powerful heroes who had ample time to lay battle plans, painstakingly plot out where all their people would be, and allocate all the resources they could possibly need to build “a coffin in the sky”…
Meanwhile, on the other side, we have the guy who has spent most of the last month writhing on the ground in a cave, probably eating canned food when he could eat at all, fighting against his own power, barely able to communicate, and promptly separated from all of his friends and allies so the heroes could immediately seal off his quirk(s) and start bouncing him off of electrified walls as a warm-up before they have Deku and company beat him into a thin paste.
Fuckin’ hell, when you phrase it like that, the heroes sound like Yu-Gi-Oh! villains. This is Seto Kaiba level excess. This is Marvel villain Arcade killing people in a place literally named Murderworld. Yet somehow, it’s the heroes I’m supposed to be rooting for? Horikoshi, you can’t possibly be serious, can you?
Yes, yes, Shigaraki is a murderous terrorist, a big threat, blah blah blah. But look, this is a damn shonen story. It matters who the underdog is, and right now, the underdog is Shigaraki Tomura.
Tangent onto my fave aside, I would love to see more villains continue to call out heroes for all of the resources they endlessly dole out on beating up villains without ever even contemplating dropping some of those resources on trying de-escalation tactics now and again. And as to Brand and his business suit, I suppose he can still wear a sharp suit for work and have exceptionally strong opinions on where one’s money ought to be going. Presumably making obscene buckets of money is fine as long as it’s being used to fund as worthy a cause as Liberation!
I hope we get some more good stuff out of him; I’m going to be extremely annoyed if he gets taken down by Crust’s dad or whatever. I’d initially been strongly hoping he was a clone—now that Toga has Twice’s blood on hand, if she were running this like a power gamer, then technically any, even every villain on the field right now could be a clone! I’m not really expecting that to be the case at this point, though I’d be thrilled if it were, but I was high-key annoyed that Brand was on the cliffhanger page of 341 with the Sludge Villain and the heteromorph uprising, suggesting he’d be with them, only to have him get ‘ported in by AFO maybe, what, a day or two later at best? Sigh.
In any case, I’ll certainly be keeping an eye out for him and the rest. Thanks for the ask, @shockersalvage!
--
1: “Way more than a few hundred million yen!” said Kaminari, a number that roughs to $1.75 million. And that’s before even getting into the specialized battlefields and upgrades we’re just now finding out about!

PERSONAL: 
Morality:  lawful /  chaotic /  good  /  neutral  / evil  /  true

Abilities/powers: Has gills, so he can breathe underwater. Due to Las Plagas, has the ability to mutate into a 100+ foot long aquatic B.O.W. Would rather not do that, thank you very much. Due to Las Plagas, he is much stronger and can will his body to push bullets out through skin if shot. Can still die if shot enough, or in certain critical areas, of course. 
Restrictions: Has severe PTSD revolving around boats and large bodies of water so chances of these abilities being utilized is slim to none. Is cowardly and very non-combative, so prefers not to get in physical altercations.

Pizza topping: Gotta be authentic NYC pizza with thin crust and oily pepperoni cups.  
Musical genre: Mostly music from the 70s or 80s. Enjoys New Wave.
Book genre: Not much of a reader but prefers non-fiction.  
Movie genre:  Bad horror B-movies with awful monsters is his favorite. The worse the acting and costumes the more he likes them.
Curse word: All of them, especially “fuck”.
Scents: Cheap cologne, cigarettes, and alcohol are what he smells like.
FUN STUFF: 
Bottom or top?: Why choose? He likes both.
Sings in the shower?: He’s more of a stare silently at the shower wall while he thinks about his life choices type.
Likes puns?: Nothing he loves more than a good pun. The more eyerolling the better, but lord forbid you use a fish pun on him these days.
TAGGED BY: @malviral​
TAGGING: You see this? You do it.
