Does anyone actually like John Redcorn?

>>149463715 (OP)
Nancy obviously
Dale ironically considers him a trusted friend and helped him get some of his land back at no cost.
Hank values him enough to go to him for advice.
The rest of the neighborhood respect him enough to not blab about his affair to Dale.

>>149463715 (OP)
I'm pretty sure the point is to contrast how Dale is loving and caring about a son that isn't even biologically his vs. the man his wife is cheating on him with being an emotionally immature deadbeat

Not especially. He's a tolerable character because he isn't immune to the bullshit of his choices, but that doesn't mean I have to like him

>Dale shoots John Redcorn thinking he’s trespassing
>real voice actor is shot for being a meth addict and threatening his neighbors
>john Redcorn used a bow and arrow
>voice actor had a crossbow he threatened people with. Leading to police to confiscate his guns

Eerie coincidences

>>149463750
And and how looks can be deceiving. Dale looks and acts like a deadbeat but is actually a pretty good father and home maker while John looks and acts like someone who has his life together but is actually a lazy home wrecker.

>>149463715 (OP)
dales a retard and thats why we love him

but at the same time i can see why people would like john more lol

>>149463715 (OP)
I like John Redcorn and Dale's wife. I feel like a lot of people get to hung up on what real cheating is like and don't get how they are coming from this from a different angle to keep things interesting. Like yeah, in the real world this would be cut and dry, but in fiction it's interesting to explore something like this from other angles and consider these other emotions.

>>149463750
didn't the immature deadbeat stuff come later?

Early season Redcorn just seemed like some grifter guy that fucks around a lot because he works out and is handsome and has a job that mostly attracts middle age women who are into New Age bullshit.

While later season Redcorn was some ex-roadie failed wannabe rockstar that still pretended he was 18 when he was in his mid 40s.

>>149463746
>Hank values him enough to go to him for advice.
that felt OOC, they just needed an excuse for dale to find out

>>149463715 (OP)
>>149463826
I think the whole scenario was that Dale is a conspiracy nut that constantly studies things in the news for the deep undercover conspiracy and thinks he is amazing at noticing little details and coverups. While in his own damn house his wife is fucking around and he is raising some New Age healer's bastard son.

>>149464038
Nah if anything later seasons kind of rehab him a lot with him being a secondary father figure to Joseph even implicitly off screen with stuff like teaching him to shave and ride a bike. Early John was much more a deadbeat with the joke being his noble facade being undercut by his scumbag reality.

>>149463715 (OP)
I'm sure he has his fans

>>149463822
You forget
>Burned his down his house with PROPANE then tried to spin it into a hate crime

>>149463715 (OP)
I like him

>>149465128
Yep, that’s a clean burning house fire I tell you hwat.

>>149463715 (OP)
I think he's a fun character to watch, if not a good person himself, which is how it goes for most KOTH characters.

>>149463715 (OP)
If you mean in universe, then yes obviously. If you mean viewers, also yes. He actually got way better once the stuff with Nancy was over and he was allowed to have more of an actual character. Especially the jokes that contrasted his hunk status with him having kind of a lame personality.

>What's wrong with wearing socks with sandals?
>Nancy used to like when I kept the vest on during sex. Do you want it!? Here, take it! Take it all! [pathetic blubbering]

>>149463715 (OP)
>John Deadcorn

>>149464059
Aged poorly in that Dale was correct about many things. To think "government and big business spy on you and keep databases of information on you" or "the government murders people" were considered kooky, far-out views.

>>149464045
Hank just has such a sheltered mindset that he sees any Native American and assumes they're some spiritual guru

>>149463715 (OP)
from the shows point I liked him before the band thing he did. It seemed like he embraced being a home wrecking piece of shit.

>>149469021
I'm curious how the new season will treat him

>Dale is raising a son that isn't his and is blissfully ignorant
>Redcorn cares about Joseph and tries to connect with him but Joseph just thinks he's a weirdo
>Redcorn wants to pass down a family heirloom hunting knife passed down for generations and Joseph doesn't care because he isn't culturally Native American which disappoints him
Dale won

>Prasanth Jeetcorn

>>149463715 (OP)
Yeah he has his moments

>>149463715 (OP)
The show is full of flawed characters but the writers still try to give most of them some humanity. Why should Redcorn be any different?

>>149463822
So that's what really happened?

>>149470894
Yeah, he had a pretty well documented history of being a public menace going on drug fueled tantrums threating the neighborhood. I think the circumstances behind his death are still vague but there's enough to support a self defense claim

>>149463746
>The rest of the neighborhood respect him enough to not blab about his affair to Dale.
That was less of respecting Redcorn and more of keeping Dale from going ballistic if he found out Redcorn was Joseph’s real dad

>>149463822
Some of the funniest moments wouldn't happen without Redcorn as well as some of the most poignant. Wouldn't be King of the Hill without him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4opWoN5vzqk&t=29s

>>149470014
There's another theory on that. Came from here even.

>>149470963
I get the feeling that this was a "everybody is shit" situation after everthing, but he's the one that's dead and that sucks.

>>149463822
>Dale calls John Redcorn gay
>real voice actor fucks a guy

>>149467715
The joke was less about government conspiracies and more about how often they'd veer into aliens, robots, time travel, and things that are clearly not right even about himself.
One of the best moments is when Hank is hyped up on testosterone and pokes a hole in Dale's latest conspiracy theory, revealing he paid attention to everything Dale said

>>149471809
>fucks a ftm
Fify, he was also previously married and later divorced a woman named Laurie as recently as 2020-something.

>>149463715 (OP)
I liked the original voice for John, the replacement (the guy that died not too long ago) was just ok.
I did not like john redcorn though. He was a jerk and I find his lifestyle a little precocious.

>>149470894
I believe it was a pitchfork, not a crossbow, but yes, that guy was unhinged and drunk on celebrity status. Apparently the cops would get called on him and they'd just get his autograph and leave.

>>149463715 (OP)
It's funny seeing people post this image without realizing how the episode ends.

>>149471987
Its getting ridiculous, they post the 1st part of the episode where hank is some ignorant conservative. Then leave out the other half of the episode where Hank got his ass metaphorically handed to him and he gets humbled and then sees the other side to become more centric. Its like the retards don't even know or haven't seen the show and just use these cherry picked images.

>>149463715 (OP)
John Redcorn is a good man.

>>149471857
What's a ftm?

>>149472111
a woman that thinks she is a man

>>149472263
Then why was everyone talking about it like it was the second Christopher Street battle?

>>149472008
Conservatives are really dumb people who don't even have, for a lack of a better word, basic media literacy. No joke, I was watching The Handmaid's Tale with a group of people and I made what I thought was clichade and very obvious remark, "Isn't it crazy how similar this is to real life right now?". And these dumb fucks didn't understand it at all. They did not understand how anything in the show represented real life at all. To them, it was just a story that had no connections with the real world at all.

>>149472359
you are not qualified to call anyone dumb if you are too stupid to realize that The Handmaid's Tale is just smut thinly disguised as social critique

>>149472542
I knew I was going to get some kind of pushback. But I imagined it would be someone straw manning the idea of the show being like the real world in anyway. But you avoided that because it would make you seem like the idiots I was talking about.

So instead, you came out with this attack to dismiss me and the work itself while understanding the messaging, but again, masterfully disregarding it.

I do think you're kind of a piece of shit, but I have to admire the skills at hand here. A true master of being a little shit.

>>149472694
The only similarity I actually see is to Islamic regimes, other than that the show at least is clearly done to titillate women with fantasies of being sexually desired. Both by powerful men to breed them, and forbidden love in cheating which brings more danger than usual.

>>149472288
Because guess who was trying to grift, not only was the "husband's" story was full of holes, trying to spin it as a homophbic attack and literally soap opera-tier, constantly adding "details" to the story only to get btfo by the neighbors who lived there for years+previous police reports.

How do you respond without sounding mad?

>>149468980
He was asking if it was an Indian tool. It was.

>>149472359
Tech literacy is more valuable than media literacy, get with the times grandpa.

>>149472821

>>149472714
we are not allowed to say that islamic values are not super heckin' wholesome and not compatible with western liberal values anymore so the true meaning of the book is about abortion rights or some shit like that now

>>149472359
>media literacy
all your loved ones are being raped my niggers.
kill yourself, poo.

>>149473039
Sir this is a comics and cartoons board.
We talk about comics and cartoons.
Media literacy is important when you want to talk about comics and cartoons. Or media in general.
Go back to pol.

>>149463826
This. When Dale turned down that hot exterminator lady in order to keep being faithful to Nancy he proved he was actually the better man.

>>149463822
>>149471809
I feel like these aren't coincidental and actually the cast was picking on him through his character

>>149472766
jump through the window dick first and stick the landing

>>149472766
do you think the lack of shins make Cotton hard to get fucked in the ass doggystyle

>>149472359
Good bait, but the only connection that "The Handmaid's Tale" has to reality is its connection to your warped victim-hood mindset that you view reality through.

The Handmaid's Tale absolutely should be reality though, if you were actually a real woman you would need to learn your place.

>>149473149
>Sir this is a comics and cartoons board.
Says the person talking about a book that was made into a TV show. /tv/ /lit/ and /lgbt/ seem to be more your speed, Anon.

>>149475670
The Handmaid's tale is not even a plausible scenario because it's a world where only the elites get laid and for some reason all men agree to support a system that makes the majority of them incels

>>149472694
Nice deflection, faggot

>>149472359
has to be bait

>>149475784
It’s written by a woman and western academics seem to think it depicts western abortion opposition and not Islamic regimes

>>149472359
eerily reminiscent of the rick and morty high-iq copy-pasta. good stuff anon, keep it up.

>>149475784
>The Handmaid's tale is not even a plausible scenario
It’s based on a number of real life scenarios, one being what happened to Iran. The irony of bitches wearing those dresses in protest while it actually happened and is happening is what tells me media literacyfags have no idea what they’re talking about.

>>149463715 (OP)
He's got a few good moments, but he's overall a very unsympathetic character. He could have any woman he wants, but he fucks another man's wife. He could have all the kids he wants, but he obsesses over Joseph who just finds him weird. Everyone goes out of their way to help him and support him, but he's just kind of a prick back to them. Not to mention all of his obsession about land, but I'd never expect the show to be like
>Hey John Redcorn, you know your ancestors got that land by raping and killing the other tribes that were there before them right?
>Native tribes so thoroughly genocided other tribes that no trace of their names, language, or culture exist for anyone to find
>it's kind of fucked up that your own culture's legends and spoken records neglect to remember their names or why they had to be killed
>kinda fucked up, really.

>>149463746
Yup likes not loves.

>>149472359
>Thinks he's smart for watching the Handmaid's Tale and observing surface level messaging
>completely missed that the entire story is some woman's extremely elaborate bodice ripper rape fantasy that was made entirely for pornographic reasons
The "media literacy" crowd fumbles basic textual analysis once again.

>>149471981
>Just get his autograph and leave.
When you think about how much cameras absolutely reign in the pigdog nigger cops of America, one has to be in awe how we will reign them in after the coming civil strife.

I believe we will have yearly civilian councils where we will take to a vote if some cops should be stricken from service.

>>149463746
>The rest of the neighborhood respect him enough to not blab about his affair to Dale.

That’s not for John Redcorn’s sake though. That’s so the Gribble household doesn’t implode.

>>149472359
You're not nearly as smart as you think you are. I'll take an illiterate any day over someone like you.

>>149471981
The pitchfork and crossbow were separate incidents, the former I believe was actually the most recent(day of his death) parading around the dog skull on it, recorded by a neighbor.

>>149463715 (OP)
he's alright i guess

>>149478450
You faggots are the most insecure people on the goddam planet, either that or you're pretending to be pathetic as a troll. I never said I was smart. I was just talking about how retarded other "people" are. If you can't understand the messaging of The Handmaid's Tale and how it connects with our world, you lack basic higher-level brain functions. Like it could be a good litmus test to see if you are so dumb you need neat bucks to survive or something.

Also, why would I care what you, some random faggot on a dumb website, would "take"? If basic truthful observations trigger you, then yeah, we wouldn't get along. I wouldn't "take" you either. Like, not even as a slave, cause your general presence is probably really obnoxious, and I wouldn't want to be around you even if you were a slave who couldn't talk and just did chores for me.

>>149463746
>Dale ironically considers him a trusted friend
Someone missed the leaks, his trusted Friend is ironically Lucky

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33CkjH4-arY

>>149480843
He did have fun working with Lucky despite him suing him for a injury to his Lucky bum.

>>149472943
in light of the activities of the current regime I want to point out that you are absolutely allowed to say that, and that at no point did woke norms ever cross over cross over into law, and something you could be dragged to prison over.

>>149472359

6 GORILLIAN MORE TO ISRAEL
This zio shit isn't even true in Europe, especially not in fucking America. Holy shit, who believes this shit anymore? You can be the most progressive gay loving leftist but if your name sounds brown you get called an antisemitic terrorist just like the guy running for mayor in NYC, we literally funded the murder of a whole nation of muslims
God when is the fucking 2000's over already?

I like him. He's an old roadie, living consequence of sleeping around as a young chad, but also just a nice guy at the end of the day despite some major faults.

>>149472359
>>149472694
fucking retard

>>149463746
nancy never divorced dale, and never tried to be with john again. She is an awful person, not defending her, but i don't see how one night equals to "liking" someone.

>>149463715 (OP)
He's a chad.

>>149463822
let this be a lesson kids.
Never go full redcorn.

>>149463750
It's more than that, from Redcorn's perspective Dale, who is the quintessential colonial American, is living his life, on his land, and raising his future, and is nobler than him. All Redcorn can do is use the white man's wives to pettily masturbate, never actually building something to last. I get such a bittersweet kick thinking about the affair like that.

>>149463715 (OP)
I used to idolize him. Now I'm the same age and, no, I just feel sympathy for him. He and and Nancy should have stopped that dumb game of adultery once Joseph was born. Dale never addressing it only speaks to how mentally and emotionally strong he is. Dale isn't the person who is going to have to answer to God for his actions when he dies. He stewarded his family, his relationships and his finances nicely. His family wasn't left for wanting. Dale wasn't lazy or unmotivated; he always provided. What Nancy didn't like in him could have been developed or met halfway--but she went the way of adultery which gives Dale all the right in the world to divorce her. He doesn't, which speaks to his character. The fact that she finally lets him out of that wicked little dance after eating up much of his youth and stopping Dale from potentially finding his happiness with another woman really crappy but, hey, she finally has John in the full capacity the two of them always fantasized about. John should be on the way to his Good End but I get the feeling that he isn't. Especially given his voice actor has passed.

He was young, in shape and was moderately successful just based off of how fit he kept his body. Of course as a kid I wanted to emulate John but as an adult I can see how deeply unstable and unhappy he is and wouldn't wish that kind of life on any man. John would have been shot and killed or ran off a long time ago by anyone else. It's only by the grace of God that Dale doesn't get himself in that destructive mindset and channel it into actually harming anything other than insects' and their negative influence on the lives of others.

>>149472943
you were literally always allowed to insult islamic values lol

>>149463715 (OP)
Of course not, he's a fucking loser. He's an alpha chad, but he's fucking miserable because he has no real character or passions, even Nancy doesn't really like him. He kind of just fucking sucks.

>>149476332
John Redcorn's not Comanche lol, he's Anasazi

>>149472943
when have you ever not been able to criticize muslims? The jews have controlled our media for decades, and they LOVE bashing the muslims. This entire fucking country loves shitting on muslims. It's practically a national pastime. Stop looking for ways to be persecuted.

>>149472714
>The only similarity I actually see is to Islamic regimes
The inspiration for the book was "what if Iran but American", so the other guy responding to you is double wrong

He's not a bad guy. Just a loser who let his dick get the better of him. I always liked him.

>>149484787
Do you expect him to know anything other than injun(bad) or injun(badder)
