Reply to comment by Narrow_Atmosphere996 in [WP] Yeah yeah, common Isekai plot from a nation in dire straits. However when they asked for a 'Warrior clad in steel', they didn't expect this strange, enclosed chariot to appear with people inside. These men call their beast a 'tank'. by 28th_Stab_Wound
I agree that it'd be a better story your way, but if it was a Manga, they'd likely have the "cheat." Tropes being tropes.

Special powers are often granted to the isekai'd by whatever God took them so I'd imagine they'd have been granted unlimited fuel and shells as part of the passage.

I find your bigotry ironic.

Eh. Most of us are pretty used to being insulted and belittled all over the place. Christians are by and large pretty thick skinned overall given the way we tend to be portrayed in the media. The stereotype based on the worst of us is taken as gospel that all of us are like that.
The silly part about all of this outrage is that I can think of another religion that would be far less tolerant of its symbols being used this way. You'd have a lot more than 4 complaints were it done with those. Interesting how folks like Lovato shy away from using those symbols but have no problem disrespecting the sacred symbols of Christianity.
There is a double standard going on, mainly because Christains mostly just shrug and deal with stuff like this while some other religious groups don't.

Especially since Minneapolis has destroyed many of her historic buildings already.
