We're so back

Possibly the most satisfying punch in the series! What did you think of this week's chapter?

Hasan was interviewing one of the Yemeni pirates on his stream and I excitedly went to my group chat to talk about how the 19 year old had been watching One Piece since he was a child. Then it turns out one of the guys had a big opinion about not comparing Houthis to the Strawhats.

Lib One Piece fans and their endless struggle to not apply the story's lessons to real life

He doesn't like ~~taking hostages or going after non military targets~~ making hostages out of non-military targets. As if the argument would formally be "Luffy beats up oppressors, but the ship crew wasn't oppressing anyone and now the pirates are being oppressors." The closest equivalent I thought of was Caesar the clown who was one degree off of military because he was contracted under a shichibukai. I can sympathize because it's not a chill situation for the crew who, even if they get out unharmed, might have been kept from providing for family or responsibilities. I hope for a peaceful resolution and, like Rashid said, freedom for Palestine.

Didn't the Straw Hats literally take a hostage this past arc?

Are you thinking of Lucci and KKKakkku? It would be different because they're military personnel so the argument would be that they fucked around and found out.

edit: which would mean that I misshaped the argument in the post above!
