He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.
It was actually Beerus disguised as Zarbon #StayWoke

Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.

No, he's also known for screaming "ZAMASU" fifty times in the same episode.
Nothing close to Zamasu's "NINGEN"

When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

That would actually be really interesting, though I want to see how this arc plays out before anything else

It would be but I doubt it. Black is acting like Goku's body is some foreign entity he's inhabiting and is only now getting the hang of. That's a weird mentality to have if he was always just Goku but raised differently.

Nice one, though the artist forgot Gohan's potara earrings.
As for your comment, Zamasu and Kibito should hold the same opinion here, as they both think humans shouldn't mingle with the gods.

Yeah, but Kibito isn't as discriminatory seeing as he stops at just looking down on lower beings, but I do see your point. Their thinking is similar enough in that regard.
