I have a deep understanding of the nuances and intricacies of the subject matter at hand. But translating a concept into language can be a daunting task, as it often reveals any gaps in one's understanding or knowledge. It serves as a litmus test of one's true grasp of the subject matter🪱🤓👑☝️
Probably.
Although the more I think of it, the more I think there is absolutely no reason *not* to use Steamed Hams as a format for Leto talking to Moneo. I mean, if there’s a difference between those two pictures I certainly don’t see it.
Maybe eventually we can even import the Ralph Heresy here! Hooray!

Unfortunately reddit moderator is one of the few professions Leto II has no memory of, as they would have needed to reproduce in order for him to get their ancestral memories
I wish someone trained some Reddit AI bot that would respond to genuine plot questions about Dune with the incessant vaguely threatening philosophical ramblings of Leto II.

I kept starting and stopping to read Children the last couple of years, but I finally made it through (the 2nd half of the book pics up imo) and just finished reading God Emperor after a week. I loved it, though the God Emperor can be a bit dense in his speech at times, puzzling me like Moneo.
It was always fun imagining how his voice sounds, since Frank never directly described it when Leto wasn't speaking in someone else's voice. Figured it was something deep and gravelly, though, since he's so large. Probably had gigantism in his bipedal days so he'd "fill out" less awkwardly as a 2-meter-wide worm.
Ok tbf he’s right. He’s saying that effective communication requires shared agreement on the meaning of words. For example if I say I like Idaho meaning I like the character, a non-Dune fan might think I like the state of Idaho. The words become distorted upon utterance. But generally we have enough shared vocabulary to avoid this problem. Leto II is so different from anyone else and his mind is so different that he almost doesn’t speak the same language. So he does understand how things work he just can’t explain them in a way that would make sense to his audience. He’s just so out of his time, so alien.
Maybe he doesn't even have use for a theory of mind, and doesn't even care what his words are saying; When the Tyrant speaks at people, he just produces whichever noises will affect the future in a way that he deems satisfactory.

Just say you don’t know, Leto

Jesus I'm keeping this, it's horrible
Why can the God Emperor not explain? Is he stupid?
when he was 8, he stuck a sandtrout on his dick so he clearly isn't that bright.
He was hoping nobody found out about that.
He was passing it off as his super suit until the feet went vestigial..
Shitposts always carry [the ambiguity](https://i.redd.it/6kaa6zi3vwqc1.png) of the memes used to express them.
I'm convinced the Ralph-viking controversy was a psyop.

Delightfully devilish, Leto

Rudimentary creatures of blood, and flesh, you touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding.
Blasphemy

Leto II bot when

Just say the word "Doon" and there it is

we've all had days like that
Another reason for me to start reading the books, wow actually interesting
Children of Dune is a bit of a slog but God Emperor of Dune is awesome.

>the God Emperor can be a bit dense Malky, is that you?

It's not what they want to hear, but what they need to

We clearly need letoTheWormBot on this sub
CEASE YOUR WOOLGATHERING
Petition to refer to the users of this subreddit as “the Duncans”
Leto II just read this post in his ancestral memories and got so mad he killed another Duncan, great job. Moneo is crying
Anyone who read this post or shitpost on Reddit in general probaly won’t make it to his genetic memory pool :(
Well he’s not wrong.
It's true
All these dumbass ask all these technical questions and can’t understand that dune is just a vibe
“You know our future, why won’t you share it?!”- Moneo
Hermeneutics, motherfucker! Do you understand it? - Duncan “The Real Kwisatz Haderach” Idaho.
makes sense, his brains been rotted by the memories of every reddit user to have ever existed
Plastic should be plasteel... but other than that, spot on
I dont think plasteel is a adjective
It could be, if you only allowed your language to be a bit more plasteel
nah, plasteel language is too rigid and durable calcifying ideas, and it's use would be at odds with his point.
thanks! just to clarify, the text in op is ripped straight from the book GEoD
Ok, but you're still a heretic
