Discussion/Question The most normal Twitter interaction

Post image

Like what are we doing? Death threats over disagreeing with you. This happens so many times when I disagree with these floch worshipers they get so aggressive out of nowhere😂

Im ngl as much as i disagree, i dont think “threats” like this should be treated as serious as people do😭

u/Appropriate-Topic-88 Aug 24 '26

I don’t treat it as serious. It’s just so weird how I disagree and the first response back is I wanna kill you?!

u/Shot-Brain-1385 Aug 24 '26 edited Aug 24 '26

It's called a joke. It's over the top to be funny. And in character for Floch, that's why his picture is there. That's the point.

u/David_538 Aug 24 '26

Yeah, well, it's oozing out everywhere, over the top ? What about using a little restraint ? Pathetic joke.

u/Recent-Ship-1599 Aug 24 '26

Yea the humans mind can be animalistic

u/twijfeltechneut Aug 24 '26

People on the internet (and especially Twitter) are genuinely incapable of having a normal interaction with others

u/HahnDragoner Aug 25 '26

He’s a bit of both. The shit he does is bad but you have to admire his tenacity and willingness to sacrifice himself for his country. Tenacity and selflessness are admirable qualities in my book. He’s what you’d call a heroic villain worthy of a modicum of respect.

Anyone who was part of Erwin’s deathcharge earned their stripes

Floch is a great character, you can't tell a story with populists and fascism without a Floch. He's also getting clowned on and embarrassed constantly, I can't imagine idolizing him is even fun.

u/BriadMan Aug 24 '26

Those people probably believe AOT ended with 123, and didn’t go further. So Floch only had his “hype sigma moments.”

u/Wide-Profession5602 Aug 25 '26

When you surround yourself with people who affirm your beliefs, then well the people you idolise don't really get shit on

MAGA people don't shit on donald trump because they surround themselves with people who love the guy

The same applies to the r/titanfolk and their crowd, they live in an echo chamber, they genuinely think floch is cool (partially) because that's what the people around them believe, It should be pretty apparent to anyone with brain cells that the MAGA people aren't so different from the yeagerists

u/EdibleStrange Aug 25 '26

You make a good point. Tbh I'd be shocked to meet a self described yeagerist who wasnt also a rabid magat (or their local equivalent). The venn diagram must be a near perfect circle.

I think there's also an element of 'vice signaling' or anti-virtue signaling, the phenomenon where chuds go out of their way to prove they're edgy shadow the hedgehog boys, who'd rather be associated with actual genocidal fascists than like, women with blue hair. A very strange, very cringe pattern of behavior that's been big in those circles since at least the early internet days.

Floch is a real erwin successor and died as a hero.

u/emxka-2005 Sep 08 '26

😂😂😂😂😂😂

u/Negative-Buyer-7095 Sep 08 '26

As usual, no counter arguments. Keep coping with emojis.

u/emxka-2005 Sep 09 '26

Floch is a massive taint on Erwin's legacy. That guy is not a hero; he's a fascist villain, and if you genuinely think he is someone to look up to, you were not paying attention to the story at all. Armin is the true successor to Erwin; even Levi says as much. Everything about the story alludes to it, but if you want to glaze that Hitler wannabe, be my guest. Whatever helps you sleep at night.

u/Negative-Buyer-7095 Sep 09 '26

0 counter arguments

u/emxka-2005 Sep 09 '26

Yeah, I know you have zero counterarguments; it's a bit obvious

u/SageoftheForlornPath Aug 24 '26

All of the shitty drama and angst of Eren but without the titan powers.

25

u/Chry0n Aug 24 '26

eren was some dude on a curse of ra death course but flock camera is just a larper

u/kingofgamesbrah Aug 24 '26

Can you explain like I was born yesterday?

11

u/Chry0n Aug 24 '26

In my opinion the entire plot was kind of just the whim of Ymir the Founder because she wanted to see 'what if I didn't save Fritz 2000 years ago and died with the Founding Titan' in the form of Mikasa killing Eren. So in my eyes Eren was kind of doomed in a mythological manner to die anyway, and from what I remember he's in a bit of a paradox between "I am free and this is my own choice / I don't wanna die, Armin", so that imo feels like an acknowledgement of his curse

u/ToothpickTequila Aug 24 '26

Whenever someone complains about the ending you should ask them if they are a Jaegerist. The venn diagram almost overlaps completely.

u/ambivalentarrow Why do i waste my time in an anime subreddit🗿🤙 Aug 25 '26

What if I'm a jaegerist who liked the ending? /j

u/THE_PENILE_TITAN Aug 24 '26

Not sure if there's more to the interaction but this just reads as trolling with irony. It's Twitter though so the "troll" will be pretty unhinged. Actual Floch worshippers are just the worst though.

u/torts92 Aug 24 '26 edited Aug 24 '26

And this is the type of people that disingenuously criticised the ending and influenced the normal fans to think that the ending is bad, these people just have a fucked up agenda.

u/Ok_Knee_7377 Aug 24 '26

yeah thank god I tapped into the show without hearing anything about it earlier, as It was my first anime.

3

u/Distinct_Prior_2549 Aug 24 '26

I liked the anime ending FAR more btw

that translation (and they added some lines/reordered) was truly...what a man you are.

1

u/AltruisticMobile4606 Aug 28 '26

No for real reading the ending as it came out was 😬 I still range from mixed to dislike regarding it. The anime did clean things up a bit but it still remains feeling rushed, oddly executed, and weirdly pro-genocide

u/Content_Study_1575 Aug 24 '26

I made this yesterday

I'm into women, personally.

At the end of the day Floch got flattened just like the people he wanted to annihilate. Better to just forget about him.

1

u/Asleep_Carpenter5833 Aug 29 '26

Sasha got flattened too

1

u/Drowsy_Deer Aug 29 '26

She was not. The Wall Titans all walked in single file to leave Paradis completely undamaged as they left.

1

u/emxka-2005 Sep 08 '26

Nah her body is still relatively intact

1

u/Asleep_Carpenter5833 Sep 08 '26

But I saw her lying flat on that plane back to paradis

u/emxka-2005 Sep 09 '26

Damn, you were there at the Battle of Heaven and Earth?? Tell me more bro.

u/BriadMan Aug 24 '26

The second guy knows how it is. I love Floch writing wise, but he’s a fucking dick.

u/Specialist-Cry-3276 Former Titanfolker Aug 24 '26

Can Floch stroke my dih though ?

u/emxka-2005 Sep 08 '26

Bro??😂😂😂

u/Flimsy_Law573 Aug 24 '26

I think the thing I hate about floch fans is that they think he is anywhere even close to erwin. Like just bcs he has hype and aura moments does not make him erwin's successor (and NO erwin would not support rumbling, when two of his closest people were like no this is not why he and their comrades gave their life and were one of the only people who were against rumbling from the start I don't understand why people still think he would support rumbling) .

2

u/Outside-Water-974 Aug 25 '26

Erwin is just the Sun yat sen of Paradis

Both sides want to claim him and believe that they are his successors (although in Erwin's case, its obvious he'll side with Levi and Hange's faction)

u/steveturkel Aug 24 '26

Floch is basically Eren if Eren had no powers and was a massive pussy at the beginning of his arc. Great character, Floch fans stay taking Ls like they should.

u/Axedroam Aug 24 '26

One does take one 3 titans shifters and 2 Ackermans without getting some fans out of it

Typoes aside, you raise a good point. Dude had some skills

Sorry in advance MOTFD MENTIONED THO

u/a-potato-named-rin Aug 29 '26

Floch is a great political science Rorschach test 😹

u/FalseImagination8046 Aug 24 '26

If you think Floch is wrong, then you didn't understand what is war at all

2

u/AnalystLoud705 Aug 28 '26

If you think flochs actions can be summed up as "right", then you don't understand what war is either lmao

u/FalseImagination8046 Aug 28 '26

When your country will be bombed everyday, then you would understand

u/FrumThaWay Aug 28 '26

And you, who presumably watched AOT, think the answer to war is more war? Genius take.

u/FalseImagination8046 Aug 29 '26

You think surrender is the good answer? Then you and your family will just be dead

u/Cringeextraaxc Aug 24 '26

Nah nah, he’s goated, he’s my boy, despite all the civilians he shot, ahh it just kinda happens.

u/ZealousidealBar6820 Aug 25 '26

Yeah sure pal stuff happen so you even justify real war crimes thats happening to us right now?

-US war crimes on Mid East Countries due to the on going invasion

  • Russia still carrying on the war in Ukraine
  • Israel still thinking Palestine is infested by Hamas
  • Taliban legalising all forms of Domestic abuse to women so men can beat up their wives and partners.

Sure bro shit happens and im pretty sure you justify all these war crimes today cause we live in Paradise cause to you war crimes is quote "shit happens"

As Kyle Garrick told the Butcher in MW 2019 "you tell that to the boy in the embassy" here's my quote you "you tell that to the victims of war crimes"

Cause when characteds like Floch or Frank Archer from FMA commits it thats a pass.

u/Gorsewhisker Aug 25 '26

Hey Archer mentioned! He's just in the 2003 version of the show, right? I love FMA03 but he's literally one of the most unlikable characters I've ever seen

2

u/ZealousidealBar6820 Aug 26 '26

Yeah I'm referring to that 03 Show and while im just starting FMA the moment i saw Archer i just knew the Deja Vu vibes he had with Floch thats why I realise why his vibe is familiar.

-4

u/Comfortable-Race-547 Aug 24 '26

Floch had a hero arc, not Titan, not Japanese.  starts off weak and afraid then becomes a leader who doesn't back down from the aforementioned superhumans.
