To me the ppl who want references to japanese culture, food, etc ain anime "localized" to "donuts" and shit sound like american imperialism or ethnonationalism. Instead of leting foreign media educate ppl into their culture, they want everything to be changed for america.
We can't let people see things from another culture than our own! that would be outrageous! and the excuse is their minds wouldn't be able to understand if a guy is eating a Bowl of something and says "this ramen is tasty" that means Ramen is a japanese food. Really? XD
To me that looks like a very cheap excuse. People seing a japanese (or whatever country the media is from) reference for the first time may not know what it is, but understand is something from their culture, and then by visualizing understand what it is. They become educated.
If you watch a spanish movie you can understand that thing called "Paella" is some kind of food with rice, you don't need it changed to "pizza" or some shit XD

One of the main reasons woke people are despised is because people understand that the reason this people put so much effort into singing their virtues, acussing others and trying to win the moral superiority, is because they have some skeletons in their closet to hide/
And the most they try and the craziest their rethoric, the biggest the skeleton is. I can’t count the times that woke people attacking anime fans with accusations of “pedophilia” are outed as convicted pedophiles/

Setting aside that wanting to deplatform ppl just because they joined a social medie they don't like, and with no "benefit of the doubt" makes them more of a nazi than the ppl they accuse of, their arguments are totally flawed.
Are there alt-right in Parler? Yes, as they are in every other social media. Because alt-righters are people and they do people things like any other so they go to restaurants and join social medias and watch the same tv shows as you.

Considering how the internet has warped our minds to make fun of anything, i'm envisioning a future a week from now in which i'll be drawing comics with Civil war-chan
Although i guess civil war-chan should be a pair of twins since there's two sides.

Or she has double personality
Civil war-chan would be the Dem side and Civil war-kun a Trump supporter, so OBVIOUSLY it would have to be a femboy XD

I'm getting Nintendo switch vibes here ImageImage

There's an interview going around in the woke community in Spain that i wish you could understand cause it defines the Spanish far left right now to a T:

It's a school teacher saying that the Center right and Centrist parties are "fascist", and also dissapointed that people can now take a spanish flag in public, cause he tended to beat up people for that in the past.

Let that sink in.
He thinks it's totally ok and even the thing to do, to beat people for wearing the flag of their country; he's even dissapointed that it's ALLOWED for people to wear it; but he thinks it's the centrist and center right parties who are "fascists".

Let's talk a little about the sorceress of #dragonscrown, because i'm a little tired of ppl who have NO idea of drawing or character design trying to bash professional character designers as if they don't know how to draw because their designs don't align with their ideology
There's a lot of work behind a character design, from themes, to colors, to what it represent, the culture, etc, a designer researchs all of that and comes up, after a lot of sketches, with a design that encapsulates everything he and the developers want to convey/
I'm not gonna go again into it cause i already wrote a long thread about character design, you can go check it if you want /

Can we take a moment to appreciate that practically everything #gamergate warned about in 2014 has become undeniably true by 2020?

The media having an all time low trust because of how unethical and shitty they've become? - Check /
Western entertainment having a big drop in quality because of an unhealthy obsession with pushing ideologies rather than making a quality product? - Check

Failures of such products being blamed on the fans with excuses of "sexism"? - check /
The pendulum starting to swing back hard to the far right due to an uncontrollable push towards the most absurd far left ideas? - Check

Female characters in western media becoming a fucking landmine because of feminism injecting toxicity into their existance? - Check
