Edited by: Astenion on 06/04/2011 19:48:51 The Apocalypse looks like one half of the tongs gynecologists use, The Abaddon looks like a dildo launcher, and their titan looks like a giant throbbing member.
Aside from the Thorax, which admittedly looks like a wang, I really don't see the phallic similarities in any other Gallente ships. The Megathron is OBVIOUSLY a Megatron Transformer action figure turned face down...even the feet and legs are the same. Even the name gives it away.

Of course Heth doesn't like us. He's also very biased.

Originally by: Lost Greybeard Gallente: good - Democracy
Somehow it looks for me as a bad. There are many examples of it being bad, like US attacking Iraq and Libya now.
You may want to pull your head out of your rectal region and clean the sh!t out of your eyes and ears. The Libyan operation is a NATO operation, one which the US has been in a supporting role and trying to hand over to NATO for the last three weeks, but so far hasn't been able to due to the total ineptitude of the other NATO countries and their begging for continued US support.
Where are all those "no blood for oil" protesters, now that Europe has a stake in this fight? I guess it's ok for European countries to kill people for oil, but when the US bombs dictators, whether it's for oil or not, it's always worse. I'm absolutely positive that the lucrative work and oil contracts that were already in place in Libya from Spain, France, Austria, and Italy were most definitely not a deciding factor in this operation. It's all about protecting the rebels, right? Riiiight.
Where are the millions and millions of anti-war protesters across Europe that we saw during the run up to OIF? I guess they weren't too bothered about it when they found out they'd be making lots of money this time around. Hypocrites, all of them.
What's the point of anti-war protests? Government will continue doing its own thing - this is the democracy right now and that's why it's evil. There was a lot of protests about Iraq. There was a lot protest about bombing and killing innocent people in Serbia. Did those protests help at all?! "Riiiight". Democracy is evil for sure, US and other countries show this every day.
Also everyone knows NATO is an US puppet.
Let's say communism is evil, like most of people think, did China or USSR attack any other country for last 50 years? All I see is democracy fails hard at being a good thing.
edit: actually I want to to pull YOUR head out of your rectal region and clean the sh!t out of your eyes and ears.
How did a RP discussion turn into a political debate?
GTFO...seriously...

Yes, because pitting database entries against other database entries on a server in London over the internet is so much more interesting and fun than pretending to be someone else in a virtual world.
I know it's why I spend $15 on this game...I love interacting with database entries and Python code over the internet that much. -----WARNING SIGNATURE BELOW-----

First world imperialism is pretty pig disgusting.
That said it looks like Gallente understand anarcho-syndicalist thought well enough that their actions would reflect human nature, not really political alignment.
I think that can be said for all of the races, as well as there being an ambiguity as to the "rightness" of moral actions. Ethics are always being decided and are never irrefragable.

Everyone is evil. Gallente tend to come off as the most good, because of their adherence to democracy, and freedom, and idealism and all that mess. In the end, the politicians are just as corrupt as any amarr holder or caldari businessman or whatever. Just as in real life, market freedom creates competition, creates rivalry, creates hatred and violence.
If you think gallente, or minmatar for that matter, are good, I suggest you read up on the Chronicles. Start with Methods of Torture.

You're following this Western ideological understanding of individualism and that torture is fundamentally "wrong". Not saying you're wrong, just cluing you in that not every culture assigns individuality to each member; there are people who do not own themselves out of participation on an ontological level. In this case, torture can be an extension of either a social contract (present even in Western democracies) or some case where individualism is not accepted.
This also reminds me, it's not possible for a universal ethical system to support a global "evil", universal behavior reflects underlying / understood / tacitly accepted acts thereby resolving any "evil" if done without the problem of contraction in one's own actions (deontological structure of ethics).

1) Looked on Eve maps and couldn't find where "Western democracies" hold sov. 2) WHAT? 3) Burn Amarr! I am Professor Screweyes and I approve of this message.

People people, can't we settle this like men? (an a few women)
Here's what we'll do.
Let's get together, and have a Gallente/Mimnitar fleet, take on a Amarr/Caldari fleet. Here's exactaly how it would end.
Amarr/Caldari fleet warp in at 100k.
Gallente pilots complain about them being out of range for their blasters, and worry that their rail guns arn't gonna be enough to break em.
Mimnitar pilots see cow, and want to hit with rock...get vaporized by Amarr lasers while trying to burn into range.
Gallente then pops drones and calls out a primary, but get held up on trying to break that damn Drake. Ravens volly FTW.
Thanatos warps in, Aeon warps in, Thanatos warps out.
Questions?

You forgot the part when Erebus warps in and the Caldari/Amarr fleet get sucked into a black hole.
Plus a Gallente VS Amarr battle happened already.

If the Caldari were in the mix our Minmatar comrades would simple load up the EM ammo and break their shields.
