This battle is lost, my liege. We must retreat if we are to have any hope of winning the war.

A casual reminder that the ultimate goal of the Decepticons is not to torture puppies because it’s fun, or step on flowers because fuck flowers, or to be evil for the sake of evil. Just like the Autobots, they’re fighting a war with beliefs and losses and literally everything at stake. 

And they’d very much like to win.

Why do Autobots get all of the merchandise? Why don’t Decepticons get anything?

T-shirts, shoes, stationery, party favors, and so on.

Everything is Autobots

Maybe I want a backpack with a big ‘ol Decepticon brand on it. Maybe I want light up Megatron shoes. Maybe I want a Starscream umbrella. Maybe I wanna have a Decepticon birthday.

You mean why does bumblebee and optimus get merchandise

For real, though. Aside from toys, I only ever see those two Autobots on stuff. When it comes to RID2015, Optimus isn’t even alone on anything, Bumblebee is always there with him.

when i used to be all “starscream would backstab HIMSELF if he could” i didn’t realize i was actually fucking calling it for the episode where he clones himself i hate this robot i HATE this fucking shitty-ass scumbag robot where should we have our honeymoon

Some Decepticons in Robots in Disguise (2015) are just so dumb, I doubt that they would have the intelligence required to pick a side between Autobots and Decepticons. It wouldn’t surprise me if the canon, in-universe explanation for them being part of Megatron’s army was that their friends just slapped a Decepticon symbol on them to prevent them from being killed by others when the war started.

“Filch? Yes she only screeches about shiny things but she’s *puts Decepticon magnet on her* totally one of us! All hail Megatron!”

“Springload? You can see that he already wears the insignia! I had to tell him that it will help him reach that thing he keeps talking about, but he’s totally convinced of our cause!“
