"Do not use the consumed souls of dead children to become god, what the fuck?" is an absolutely fantastic line that made me hold in a strong laugh.

Because of those rules and laws being real-life human concepts it makes it feel like something that could be realized in real life and would be considered a horrible crime in real life, even despite the fact the law system probably couldn't hurt a newly made god in the slightest. I don't know man, it's just really funny, what a video.

i think the biggest counterpoint i could make against a lot of this is regarding bioweaponry or objects that wouldn’t be harmful otherwise (like the water and the snow or weather warfare) - that being, the geneva conventions don’t account for magic. the same also applies to toriel’s fire, which does no additional damage beyond the contact, and the relevant soul damage can be healed with a good meal - something that wouldn’t be possible with a physical wound. fire weapon war crimes are so because they elongate suffering, but toriel’s fire does no such thing. it’s much more like a hard punch or a gunshot wound than a flamethrower. put simply, they’re just not physical weapons, undyne’s spears and the like aside they mostly only exist within the bullet box, and have little effect otherwise. or at the very least, they don’t do any permanent harm on account of weird magical bullshit.

We know phones and at least some form of social media exist in the underground, and we've seen how quickly news can spread through social media. Even if phone and social media use isn't as widespread as it is in real life, it's still likely at least one of the ruins monsters would be able to get the word out about it, so I'd say it's likely pretty justified for the monsters to attack on sight, in a Genocide playthrough at least

Quick question: could you count Omega Floweys first reset as perfidy? Hes definitely trying to lead you into believing hes been defeated, and then when you dont expect it, he does the whole murdering thing right afterwards. I'm a bit conflicted on it because he specifically pretend to be defeated or dying, but not pretending to be already deceased.

With Alphys's amalgamations, I'd at least say that the amalgamations were not intentional? The best description for it would be "Alphys tried to create the monster equivalent of organ donation, but instead accidentally resurrected the dead in the most horrifying way possible." Don't know how that affects the ethics here, and she definitely didn't handle the situation the best. Like, maybe she could have done some experiments to find out if "Determination+Monsters=Amalgamations" But so far at least I'd argue that her understanding before the amalgamations is "Human Souls + Determination = Souls surviving outside of a host body. Therefore Monster Souls + Determination = Souls surviving outside of a host body" and not "Determination+Monsters=Amalgamations"

@turtleofpride4572 I mean, I feel like Alphys intentions are at least important in determining the ethics/crimes here. (There's a reason murder and manslaughter are two different crimes.) Alphys here wasn't like "Muahahaha! I'm going to fuse these monsters together in an experiment because I'm EVIL!" I feel like the best way to explain what happened is to put it in human terms. Bascially imagine a world where organ donation/transplants don't exist, and a Scientist attempts to invent organ transplants. The scientist discovers a substance found in another speices that preserves the organs outside of the body. Gets donated a few brain-dead bodies and injects the substance into them. Instead, the bodies come to life, and the scientist briefly dedicates that they found out how to bring people to life. Then the bodies start to melt and fuse together, and the scientist is horrified. Not a 1 to 1 analogy, but you get the deal. Like she still messed up with hiding the amalgamation situation out of guilt, and you could argue that she could have possibly taken more precautions to prevent the amalgamations from happening, but this isn't some Josef Mengele torture experiment thing. Similar to Flowey too. I mean, there's no evidence that she knows that Flowey was Asriel, but she probably thought it was a "Frankenstein situation", and like the amalgamations she thought the "vessel" as a failure and that it wouldn't come to life after some experiments. and I think the final thing is that after the pacifist ending, all the monsters at least seem fine with the situation? None of the monsters whose relatives became the amalgamations were like "How dare you do this to my family Alphys!" Instead, they are all like "Wow I'm thankful the great Doctor Alphys saved my wife, even though she's now sharing her body with like 20 other people", and the amalgamation after leaving the true lab at least seems to be doing pretty chill.

@@link_team3855 I think the reason Asgore had Alphys try to find an alternative way of breaking the barrier was because "he was already guilt-ridden after killing 6 kids and didn't want to kill a 7th to shatter the barrier." So technically this was intended to be the "more ethical" option than "killing one more human child" Plus, the fallen down monsters were sent to Alphys by their families under the (original) understanding this was a "Soul Donation" sort of deal. The problem is that Alphys didn't know that Determination injected into fallen down Monsters would just bring them back to life/stop them from dying, and then melt their bodies because they didn't have as much physical matter (bc monsters were mostly made up of magic).

@qzimyion

Still, telling the families of the test subjects that they're "fine" and will go back to them soon is kind of messed up. Especially since she cut any sort of contact from the families after the experiments when horribly wrong.

to add on to @phantomdergwulf, I think Flowey has a 49th war crime, deploying child soldiers (torture edition): using the souls of dead children to psychologically torture other children, in this case to the point where it causes physical pain (being very stressed can lead to physical effects, and pain, in several forms, is one of them)

20:00 that sounds like a “Your Mom” joke Also, I think Papyrus literally just conjures them like some kinda Bone Elemental. He stores them ahead of time because unlike Sans, his whole MO is “be prepared”, and he’d rather have them ready to go than build them on the spot On the note of the prison, the lack of bathroom might also have to do with the fact that monster food doesn’t pass thru the whole digestive tract, it just gets absorbed completely. Another wrinkle to the pacifism playthrough is one that Frisk themselves wouldn’t know at this point, but the ONLY way to escape the underground is with a human soul and a monster soul. And the only kind of monster soul that can survive long enough for a human to use is a Boss Monster soul… like King Asgore …if Undyne knew about this situation, and _didnt_ know that Frisk was naive to the situation, then she’s technically working to prevent Regicide. She says she’s doing you a favor because no one has ever gotten past Asgore anyway, but when you consider Papyrus’ comment, she also has reason to be concerned that his soft heart, combined with his clear second thoughts about his own plan, mean that SOMEONE is going to get hurt. That second half doesn’t necessarily prevent it from being a Warcrime, I admit, but the inherently magical nature of the Underground makes things… weird On the note of Asgore, he gives you MULTIPLE opportunities to retreat before the fight begins, so him destroying the MERCY button, while obviously still a big problem, is a bit more comprehensible in context as “it is literally impossible for both of us to survive AND even ONE of us to get their happy ending”. He’s entirely cool with being the one to die, but he feels needs to at least make an attempt Again, that won’t hold in court, but if people could find a way to get fucking _Hirohito_ out unscathed, then Fluffybuns could probably get by with a House Arrest

I think it’s weird you didn’t count Undyne’s spears for being made of energy, but you did count things like the stars as warcrimes. Also, wouldn’t the ballet shoes in Omega flowey be another war crime, for the whole “no using things a child would likely be attracted to to murder” thing?

23:53 in this context they are being actively used as weapon (I think, the battle system is weird and abstract ) that means they are an improvised weapon. A trap would need to be something like a land mine or everything from home alone, where the danger comes from the thing itself not the person using it.

5:59 His attacks are the equivalent of swinging your fists blindly while backing away in hopes of scaring the enemy away. They're hoping the attack *_doesn't_* connect or that means your close by.

One thing I think you overlooked. The reasons the monsters attack you is because they plan on a literal genocide on humans. Also about the in game attacks. it’s totally possible nearly all the attacks are not meant to be interpreted literally, but are just a representation of their magic. I always thought this because in game you are moving your soul, but in reality you’d be moving your whole body.

"The only thing Asgore does is spread more fire than a United States gender reveal party" is the hardest line in this.

I really don't think we should discount Frisk being the size of a small country so quickly. I don't recall anything in the game deconfirming it. The thing about Asgore's fight is that if you lose and then talk to him, he acknowledges that he knows how reloading works and that he's killed you before. So the only way to truly lose to Asgore is to give up and let him kill you, and he is 100% aware of this. So he's not just killing you, he's killing you multiple times until you finally choose death instead of fighting him anymore. I'm really curious what that would be classified as, it feels like it's something. I'm also so happy that you mentioned Muffet's Genocide dialogue, as it seems like everyone skips it and it has some of my favorite bits, as well as showing that (by forcing Alphys to leave a backdoor open) she 100% doomed the world!

Ok look As a whole alphys isn't that bad Now again, hear me out here Here's the timeline The families hand over loved ones near death so alphys can practice what is essentially an organ donation 1. The people are sent over 2. Alphys injects them with dt thinking that since dt allows humans to persist from death and come back perfectly fine it should do the same to monsters 3. The monsters wake up and are perfectly fine, alphys tells the families that the experiments worked and their family will be home soon 4. The next day she goes back to see that they've all started melting into amalgamated substances and have fused together 5. She tries to find ways to help, not being able to send home these people after telling the families thst they were all fine, and feeling guilt and shame for what she's done to them 6. (After frisk comes along) alphys will either learn from you that she should just tell the truth finally as she can't hide it forever, and let's them all go, or in genocide it's revealed anyways as she uses the lab as a bunker to evacuate everyone And in most nuteral endings she ends of offing herself due to the guilt of what she's done

Very amusing video! So, so you know, Undertale’s Monsters are made primarily of magic with very little physical matter (the dust) and every attack seen in battles is made entirely of magic (and not whatever real or fantastical object they look like) and, upon contact with the SOUL, deals damage to your psyche based on how much the monster wants to hurt you. Once your HP (hope) depletes enough (from battle or otherwise), your SOUL breaks and you die. If magic hits a human’s body while the soul is busy dodging attacks, nothing happens. So, they don’t deal direct physical damage or do any of the effects of fire, water, the Sun, etc. when used in battle. Exceptions are in other types of magic, like fire magic used for cooking, blue, orange, green attacks etc., enemies changing the color of your soul, or Sans’ Komic Retribution mechanic. If magic was as commonplace and natural as in the Underground, most of the monsters would be off the hook. But, since humans made the Geneva Convention, they would probably make using *any magic* illegal in this world due to their long-standing anti-monster bias.

@@DaveyGunface It's definitely pretty arguable. A bit pushing it, really. It's questionable if it really poses an actual advantage, it's mostly just to mock you. But there IS a case for it since you do stop attacking due to it, so I wanted to point it out just in case. Also just wanna say I appreciate the response!

Found your channel when looking for good nuclear throne content, stayed for the war crimes 🔥. Would be cool to see a short video of the war crimes committed in a typical nuclear throne run btw.

Running into every enemy with Gamma Guts is funny. I'm not sure if its strictly viable, but it is funny

On Aaron's flirting, I dont think any of the monsters except Asgore and Toriel know that you're a child. Hell, in the gencoide route some of them dont even realize you're human. None of them have met a human before. Or if they have, it's likely they were a child as well. So for all the underground knows, Frisk is a fully grown human

I counter this by saying if monster kid isnt wrong then having stripes on your clothing is meant to indicate your a child

@@augustonian3522 I counter your counter by saying that "if monster kid isn't wrong" is doing some _really_ heavy lifting in that sentence.

You forgot that Chara takes you (or Frisk, I guess) over at the end of the Genocide route, and this transpires after the reset when you do a Pacifist run again. They don't even do it to stop your rampage but to instead to it themselves even in other realities, so it's not I'm not sure where literal Possession falls under as a war crime however.

I briefly mentioned that at the end when I said "I don't want to cover the ethics on soulless pacifism", but I do sincerely love the endings. Very nice as a final "fuck you" to the player for doing genocide Also, I'd genuinely just say selling your soul isn't a great move. Possession could reasonably be legally considered unethical hostage taking

Ah... Despite your warning, the raid fake out scared the shit outta me.

Remember that monster attacks are made of magic so that’s why papyrus can make so many bones because he can make them though it’s also somewhat implied he doesn’t fully know how to get rid of them. But due to monster attacks being magic that does mean floweys “friendliness petals” are not actually anything plant related

But also since monsters are made of magic, it could be argued that magic is biological, which then means all monsters have the biological warfare checkmark filled.

​@@raileynashpallada9559 it would be more like creating a fist out of thin air and punching someone with it, whether or not you think that's a war crime is up to your own interpretation

In Undertale, the enemy attacks are literally made of pure magic, so Sans & Papyrus aren't guilty of desecration of remains, as they literally created their bone attacks out of their own magic; thus they never really desecrated anyone's remains. Papyrus also didn't know what would happen after the player's character was delivered to the capital. The only exception to enemy attacks being made of magic is Flowey, whose "Friendliness Pellet" attacks are most likely comprised of his own Determination.

Not a war crime, but all the characters dating a child.

Tbh for asgore fight you could kinda argue it was self-defense, because not only did he not want to fight the human he gave them so many chances to just turn back, and in order to cross the barrier you need a human soul AND a soul of a boss monster

@@brolytriplethreat probably, but the specific war crimes that were discussed in the video are definitely the wrong ones, again he gave you many times to go back, but in order for a human to cross the barrier they need a boss monster soul, so it could be argued that it's self-defense.

This is literally one of the funniest videos I have ever seen in my life I fucking love your crackhead ADHD content Davey

3:25 I instantly knew this was a good video when Flowey was essentially compared to a landmine

50:43 I feel like that specific line from flowey should be like 5 warcrimes at the least
