I think instead of taking peoples magio till they are dead mogamett should just give all people magical devices that can support their daily lives that way people can work efficiently get stronger and have more magio which also solves nearly all problems . Taking peoples will is like the worst thing you can do cause people without will is useless then animals , well maybe mogamett is after that which is just pure revenge .
I think magicians arent poor as they look cause even going after knowledge can invite destruction ( like people who made atomic bomb , i guess they never imagines it could kill all that people in hiroshima easily ) . Magicians can also go after knowledge because they can but people in slums have nothing no education , no knowledge , no money , no hopes nothing like how alibaba was when he was a child just look at kassim he also had nothing . Mogamett seems to be a good person in the core so i think if you show it he will eventually find right way , i can somehow understand mogamett since i was in a similiar situation before and it took considerable time for me to gain trut people again . Aladdin can solve this problem easily with no problem i think its easy lets hope he can get it done quickly . |

Does Sindra have slaves? In terms of a progressive society Sindra seems by far the best out of those that we've seen. What about Laem? From the way Titus reacted to the people in the 5th district, it'd seem unlikely for them to have slaves.
Magi Hogwart's magician system is also pretty screwed up. The fact that Magicians have to duel to the death to advance into the higher levels is ridiculously stupid and barbaric, and goes against all the 'ideals' that evil dumbledore is spouting. |

Laem has slaves, as show in chapter 139, pages 9 and 10. However it is likely that the there are basic rules in regards to what you can and cannot due to the slaves, and rules in which they can be freed from the slavery itself. The roman empires population was about 30-40% slave also.
The reality problem is that in a societies that are pre-industrial has been way too common throughout history, and often has been only broken by means of blood and steel. Lots and lots of blood. Even then, what would often happen is the rebellion would be put down, with the loss of hundreds of thousands of lives, and eventually the status of the slaves, then serfs, and eventually freeman, would slowly improve. It was not fully ended until the early industrial revolution's manpower demands caused the cities to start draining the countryside of people. So to end slavery, you better get ready for a really really bloody fights and battles coming soon. |

I really hope Aladdin isn't buying into all of this jargen Ugly Gandolf is saying. I mean, I know that his experiences is true, but is Aladdin really gonna throw away all of the friends and experiences he's had, just because of what this geezer is saying?

It seems that this world is in the "Renaissance period" when it comes to magic ( Solomon probably succeeded in sealing most of magic knowledge if my theory is actually right ). To be honest, I don't think Alladdin can do much to change this country because the root of conflict is too deep. The best he could do for those lv5 citizens probably is: setting a limit of how many hours can they be used as magoi batteries per day ( 10 hours per day? This is ancient society, people wake up at 6am and work til 6pm so 10 hours is actually pretty good ), having a day off per week and education for those that want to learn. |

Yes, we have cuaght up with the RAWS and now we will have to wait weekly for the ones in Japan to be translated, can't wait. If the acadamey rediscovered magic wouldnt they be able to imprison Aladdin with high level magic if he ever does anything angainst the academy?

BTW, I'm also sure that there's some people in Dumblemort's inner circle who don't agree with his anti-muggle views. I'm especially hoping that McGonagall Myers is one of them..... it would be sad to find out that the teacher who(se boobs) helped improve Aladdin so much turned out to be a Death Eater.....

I totally find this comparison to Magnostatt to Hogwarts/Harry Potter both apt and yet funny at the same time.
Still this propaganda speech by evil Dumbledore just smacks of hypocrisy and could be argued against in so many ways.

That's because it's just TOO easy a comparison to make. But at least I'm doing my own spin on it (like literally combining Dumbledore and Voldemort's names for Mogamett ). But in all seriousness, I do agree that Mogamett's speech isn't all that convincing. But I'm also sure that he's too bigoted at this point to let anyone sway him to the right path even if they DO call him out on his BS. |

IMO, Magnoshutatt seems more like a combination of pre-WWII Jewish people ( a group of people/race that hold valuable knowledges but was hated and treated like sub-human by most people around them ) and Iran's revolution ( oppressed people that overthrow the ruling dynasty and they were lead by a high priest/scholar - in Magi's case: a magician ).
Even Moganett's ideal is similar to Zionism: He's trying to attract all the world's magicians to his country so magicians will not be harmed and discriminated anymore. Compare him with Magneto would be more accurate ) Last edited by hawkeyesvn; 2012-10-31 at 04:06. |
