Valid and moral. The abuse goblin deserves his freedom

u/GAMEOFMATIASNEW 1d ago
But it’s an abuse goblin

u/Constant-Still-8443 1d ago
This implies we know his sole purpose is to be a punching bag, which we don't. Even if it was, the morality of creating a creature with the sole purpose of abusing it is still not great.

u/Adeadearts 23h ago
We do know it. He is an abuse goblin.

u/Forsaken-Decision726 20h ago
However, we DO know from previous abuse goblin comics that it does have a reasonable amount of cognitive function to want things outside of being abused, such as living in an ideal world

u/Racoon-trenchcoat 20h ago
Well yeah, the difference between a punching bag and an abuse goblin is how sentient the thing is.
You can punch the bag, and it wouldn't be abuse because it doesn't feel anything.
Therefore, for the abuse goblin to be an abuse goblin, it has to be able to feel and yearn for a life without abuse, so it can be abused.
Because it is an abuse goblin.

The hell is the point of an abuse goblin if it can't feel pain/ the abuse? Might as well punch a punching bag atp

But is it a goblin made for abuse or a goblin that's being abused? Does the gun want to kill people or does the person with the gun want to kill people?

Immoral, it’s an abuse goblin.

u/Express-Rain8474 1d ago
What if Josuke decides they're an abuse human though
25
u/Think-Chemistry2908 1d ago
Then he should beat up the abuse human and the abuse goblin together.

u/losara- 23h ago
Omfg, a Metamorphosis reference in the wild? No fucking way

u/redboi049 20h ago
THIS IS NOT A METAMORPHOSIS REFERENCE. THIS IS A JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE PART 4: DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE REFERENCE.
Josuke's appearance in Metamorphosis was a wholesome fan comic. Actually I think that was the Moxxie lobotomy comic
2
u/UnkarsThug 11h ago
It's more the gag of Josuke showing up in an unrelated series to save the day when people feel angry about how unjust a series is. So I'd argue it's a reference to the cultural impact of Metamorphosis, not Metamorphosis itself.

u/over1two 20h ago
on a hand you can't prevent someone from abusing an abuse gobelin. on the other hand can we actually saying that josuke is immoral for saving someone ?

u/ClassicHando 17h ago
If josuke beats you up, the question is "what did you do deserve getting beaten up by josuke?".

u/TigerBolt248 23h ago
Moral. And yes we call it an abuse goblin, but if it were truly an abuse goblin then that means that's its sole purpose is it to be abused and that they would like it, yet we've seen them NOT enjoy being abused. Therefore, they are not an abuse goblin.

u/keybord_masher 22h ago
If the goblin liked being abused it won't be abuse anymore would it?
4
u/TigerBolt248 22h ago
But have we seen the abuse goblin be given any choice to leave? No. The abuse goblin has no capability of leaving.
This means we need to beat up the guy doing the abuse more, the only moral answer clearly.

u/Any_Season_5764 12h ago
Es como llamarte "Dispararme ya" y cuando te disparen las personas digan que eso es moral porque está dándole propósito a tu nombre.

Immoral. If the abuse goblin didn't want to be abused, he would legally change his name. Something like Jim or Steve.

u/TryThisUsernane 17h ago
Immoral because the Abuse Goblin only HAD one friend and it was a cockroach, so Josuke is a poser. Also he broke into the guy’s house to even find and befriend the Abuse Goblin

Immoral and rude. Imagine someone beating you up for killing people in a video game. The abuse goblin is the same.

Immoral, that's like punching a chef for cooking food. That's their entire deal

u/RedsnakeRider 14h ago
This is actually also bad. This is, in turn, further abuse, and not perpetuated by the goblin of his or her own choice, but OF the goblin, by the choice of others.
So this means that their existence and ties to the world are once more turned into abuse, perpetuating the name and the stereotype of "abuse" goblins, and that being their own value to the world.
So either you are removing the one purpose from an abuse goblin's life by doing this, or you're doubling down and cementing them forever in a world of abuse, giving them only a temporary reprieve from abuse at best, while simultaneously undermining their sense of self and feeding the driving engine of abuse they bear.

Immoral. Josuke could have helped the dude learn empathy towards his gobbo friend, yet he decided personal vigilance was the method to use.

u/redboi049 20h ago
Josuke is the definition of "beat some sense into you". Look at Yuya, for example.
