Talk:Functionism
I think we may be confusing Functionism and Ratioism a bit here. Functionism is that your altmode determines your lot in life. Ratioism to my recollection is sometimes a corollary, but is the specific notion that the more common altmodes are effectively disposable, while the rarer ones are more valuable. Both of them were bucked by the Decepticon movement that practiced a taboo of wholly refitting yourself into a new purpose, with Megatron's gladiatorial refit being the most prominent example. The forged versus constructed cold debate sometimes gets lumped in with this as well, but only insofar as it's yet another damaging notion prewar society had towards class and station based off of how you were built.--RosicrucianTalk 22:34, 27 December 2012 (EST)
