It hasn't.
Sure there are problems but conversely look how far we've come. For example watch TFA. The lead characters are a woman and a black man. Would that have been the case in say, the 1940's? No, it would not.
Likewise look at gay rights. A few decades ago just being gay was considered a crime. Now many places have legalised gay marriage.
Or the fact that at one time women weren't even allowed to vote. Not the case now.
Sure we're far from perfect but I think humanity's doing good.

Sure, but we still let you post here, spouting your opinion as fact
Except, you know, I've never done that.

LOL. They're more canon than the word of a bunch of greedy money-grubbers, at least they should be.

Kek. You're basically the equivalent of a kid that joins in on an active board game and makes up his own rules because he doesn't like the ones in the instruction booklet.
And then is incredulous when none of his peers humor him, and continue playing by the rules. Those damn brainless sheep. 馃槀
Originally posted by chilled monkeyThe thing is, of course anyone can defeat anyone with the circumstances you mentioned, but in versus threads we usually specify or assume neutral ground and that kinda makes it impossible for weak characters to defeat really strong characters no matter how many rounds they fight. So I meant that what you said has no relevance here since OP already creates the circumstances. I'm not saying Mace defeats Bane 10/10 btw, just that if the other side can prove it with an argument, what you said becomes non-sequitur.
None taken, and thank you.Beg your pardon but it makes perfect sense. I'm merely pointing out that anyone can beat anyone else under the right conditions/circumstances.

I see your point. It's just kind of a pet hate of mine when people go "it's BS/PIS/Plot Armour etc." as a knee-jerk reaction whenever a "weaker" character beats or just contends with a "stronger" one. Most of the time if they actually paid attention to the circumstances they'd see the outcome makes perfect sense.
I just wanted to point that out.
Originally posted by chilled monkeyI see. These days, weaker characters usually achieve that via oneness coming out of their asses. It's actually annoying and is really hard to take seriously. So I'm not surprised why people are dismissing such feats (like Kanan beating Maul).
