Can we at least say that they had good intentions? That they were just trying to save the souls of the poor savages? Book burning is at least preferable to the people-burning they did to save the Lutherans from themselves.
Good intentions of plundering cities of their gold, indoctrinating people with threat of death AND spreading plague + invasive species to endemic inhabitants?
Nope. Not even a sliver of good intentions. They just want to have people bow their heads to them, that's all.

No no no, I was referring to the book burning part. Maybe that's the indoctrination you're referring to. What do you think was the intention of the indoctrination you're talking about?
As for the rest, yes they certainly wanted the gold. The diseases and invasive species were incidental, not some nefarious plan, unless there's some evidence otherwise.

You're acting like the Spaniards were all a big evil monolith and not millions of different people. The House of Hapsburg certainly wanted to conquer the world by all appearances, but that's just the incentives of basic realpolitic.
Their real, nefarious plan... was race-mixing, as depicted in this drawing.

Land exploitation + land plundering + mass rape (which was one of the main ways diseases were spread)
But "they weren't all an evil monolith! They were people too!"
haha yeah i'm sure some conquistadors went with big sparkly eyes and big generous hearts to spread peace, prosperity and their semen across the ocean, and it was of course done with consent amirite
What a fucking failure of a civilisation this is..

When I referred to "the Spaniards" I meant the Spaniards. Not the conquistadors specifically - I don't think there were "millions" of those, but of course that depends on your (conveniently absent) definition of such.
And when I suggested the Spaniards might have had good intentions, I was responding to the matter of book burning that FRien brought up. I was not talking about anything related to land or sex, consensual or not. Framing what I said about good intentions as relating to those subjects is completely disingenuous. ESPECIALLY AFTER I ALREADY CORRECTED Rathurue ON DOING THAT EXACT SAME SHIT IN THE COMMENT YOU'RE RESPONDING TO.

The Spanish Empire was incredibly successful. The failure here is you. We could talk about the merits of #allconquistadors, but I don't trust you to do so with any honesty.

The only honesty we have here is bloodshed and pillaging, that's all I see in history.

There's a lot written in the history books about violent conflicts because they tend to shape the course of history, and judging from modern conflicts I don't trust the old ones to have involved much honesty either. But history is also shaped by technological innovation, and I don't expect a great deal of lies involved with pottery shards found in ancient Chinese river valleys or sixteenth-century Dutch windmills.
Not everything in life (or history) is shit. Cheer up, you world-weary [nah, I'll try to be politer].

How else are they supposed to know it's actually the artist?
Fair, but still, it feels like it goes "hey we're reposting your work even if you said you don't want to, and if you want it out, give us your name, address, and also your phone number, and um, the name of your firstborn too. We promise we probably won't resell your informations or anything". I still don't believe it's a coincidence that I started receiving a lot of phone calls after I gave my own phone number to my workplace, so I wouldn't trust anyone with that. It kinda sucks, especially when I saw artists say publically on Twitter they don't want their stuff reposted, and getting annoyed when their stuff get reposted here and they're redirected to the DMCA page.
Can't a public announcement on the artist's social media be enough for Danbooru to take their stuff down? A lot of these have a lot of security measures to avoid xxX_ColdSteelTheEdgeLord_666_Xxx getting into another person's account and saying dumb stuff like "the sun orbits the Earth".

Filing a DMCA is a necessary step. The post can't be taken down any other way, not even by the person that uploaded it here.

i have no issues with the DMCA claim; i don't think i should have to be filing it and potentially putting myself at risk is my point, because my art shouldn't even be on this website. if artists asking directly for their work to be removed is seen as a bother or "vandalism"* to this site, wouldn't not posting art without permission be an easy fix? then i wouldn't be here in the first place
*i figured out the poster's discord account and asked them directly, they framed my/similar behavior as "com[ing] to the site and vandaliz[ing] it instead of filing dmca."

What you conveniently forgot to mention is what manner of calls they are. Because I also get quite a few calls over the years after giving them my number, but they all pertain to changes in my work scedule.
So tell me, are you bad at your job? Are you late often?

I assumed it was obvious I meant scam calls. My bad, I forgot where I was and what I was talking to. I'll remember to overexplain next time.

not only that, she has to color her eyebrows as well and not to mention that ryan is more buff than mcqueen and bigger too (if im not mistaken) and she might need contacts as well... But here comes the 1 million dollar question: why does she cosplay as Mcqueen in the first place?

McQueen just wants to catch a baseball game, so she made Ryan cosplay as her to skip training
