I think they did Nick dirty

On one hand, I tend to agree: at the beginning of the movie I would've put him at true neutral.

On the other hand, the position fits because ACAB (regardless of him being depicted as a good guy in fiction).

Nick was running a small scale scam (getting elephant ice cream on the cheap, turning it into popsicles, selling the used popsicle sticks as redwood for construction) and loving it, no way that'd fit as true neutral.

He did nothing actually illegal, except that income tax thing.

Technically legal, questionable in every other aspect. Abusing the system for self gain sounds like a pretty clear lawful evil character.

Hounestly wasn't he just doing capitalism? buy low sell high.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Dunno, I'd consider giving the middle finger to every food and safety regulation more capitalist than buy low sell high 😆

I mean, he melts the ice cream on a roof, collects it via a gutter, refreezes it on open air. And I doubt the transportation is any cleaner.

I would love to find a legal way to abuse the system for profit. I guess I'm evil 🤷‍♂️

Start a christian cult. Depending on the country, all the possessions of the religion are 100% tax exempt

Great idea, L. Ron Hubbard!

Check out Edir Macedo for a less crazy and more christian scam. Motherfucker owns a TV channel and built a mega Temple of Solomon to live in

🤣 more power to him. I often wonder how rich I could be if I just abandoned all morals

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Zootopia has health/sanitation codes for food service. You see the bunny cop threaten enforcement of them against the ice cream shop.

Then, if the Popsicle sticks are actually being passed off as something they're not, that's also fraud.

Absolutely. Lovable. Still a cop.

I'd also say that being part of a piece of media that attempts to perpetuate the idea that cops are the good guys makes him a bad guy. I bet there have been lives ruined because that movie made some kids think they could trust cops.

Maid Marian pegs.

Yo! How is Mad Madam Mim chaotic neutral? She was going to kill Arthur for sport.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah but have you met that kid? Seems justified

the only thing lawful evil about this chart is that it goes lawful neutral chaotic from left to right

Why does Lawful Neutral look more like a bear from Tailspin?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

That's Mira the Archaeologist from TaleSpin. I agree she looks a bit like a bear, but I think she's supposed to be a fox in the show.

That explains it! Thank you!
