The funny thing about the "X-men was created woke" discourse is the people saying it to me weren't even alive when i was reading comics (i still have some of the very first x-men numbers)

Dude i have read that era, the way the stories were treated wasn't even remotely the same X-men started as adventure focused comics about fighting very villainous people. There wasn't anything in Magneto at the time about social injustices he was just a race supremacist, and the X-men didn't have particular social issues either

This anime is like the best example to use to talk about tourism and franchises going to shit when you pander to them

A bazillion people who clearly didn't care about Gundam came in, made every discussion about just the Yuri shipping with super toxic behavior, then left

Like seriously, whenever i checked in social media when episodes came out there was like ZERO discussions about the mechs, or the plot, or the drama, or the politics; the main Gundam things; it was all, entirely, the yuri shipping, and the tourists harassing people

I re-played my favorite videogame of when i was young recently in emulator and loved it like i did decades ago

There's always a factor of getting old and nostalgia but the many issues gaming has today cannot be just handwaved with that

This is something that i re-discovered when i started to try PSVR. VR has a factor of devs having to think of creative ways to make games with the limited gameplay resources of VR which leads to innovation, and that's precisely what we had in older gens

I love how all the media has to add "unwanted kiss" to any report of this because if they simply explained or showed what happened everyone would laugh at how stupid they are

There's so much misinformation about this that's exacerbated by the barrier language

https://twitter.com/cnnbrk/status/1700974164587458823

If you watch any of the videos of the case understanding spanish it's extremely easy to see it was a consented and innocent kiss given in the heat of celebration that she didn't mind at all. But the media just transcribes words taking away context and tone to make it look bad

With the Skullgirls discussion about if it's censorship or not, i think it's a good moment to talk again about how i think we live in a "Games Code Authority" and what that means

So first, what was the Comics Code Authority? It was a Code of conduct for comics born in the 50s/ The CCA acted as de facto censors, approving or disapproving of the stories in comics, and both Marvel and DC seriously handicapped their comics for decades

The entirety of spanish twitter staff has been fired. Every single one of them.

Now, you know i'm against firing people for culture war and shit, but i'm in favor of firing people for being bad at their job, so i'm gonna tell you a story about spanish twitter: Last year there was a trend in spanish twitter, by which a Woke Whatsapp group coordinated to mass report tweets from anti-wokes so they would be banned. To make it more ridiculous, the tweets they reported just said stuff like "hello", or "thanks". And they were all banned.

A viral case in Spain right now: a mother loses custody of her daughter and decides to kill her before giving her up, awakening again the discussion about how spanish laws and government discriminate men and favor women to the point they ignore unstable women until it's too late It could have been avoided because the father sued her 20 times for her mental instability, but the Ministry of equality pressures judges into being lenient or outright dismissing cases against women. For this reason, women doing false accusations are almost never punished

I think a lot of people have a confusion with what a loli is

Loli refers to a non-developed body type; not an age

That's why you can have the "300 years old dragon loli" and "legal loli"

Obviously more often than not the character is going to be a kid. But she doesn't have to

https://twitter.com/halphelt/status/1571266312734920705

There's also the problem of people calling flat or small character's "lolis" which leads to retards calling you a pedophile if you like the equivalent of a pornstar who happens to be flat chested

" “Best way to defend yourself against the woke is to out-woke everyone, including the woke,” one writer said. Suddenly, every conversation with every agent or head of content started with: Is anyone BIPOC attached to this?

commonsense.news/p/hollywoods-n… "We wanted a thought-provoking show that made fun of woke culture and explored notions of what a black artist’s life would be like in San Francisco among white liberals. But we could only punch down at the safest targets”—white men. "

Woke activists will fill their mouth with the "you made it political!" meme but then they're unable to see anything without their political lens

Hispanic twitter is arguing if Araki was pushing a feminist agenda with Jojo's...only because part 6 has a female protagonist That's it, one part had a female protagonist, so that means he was pushing their political agenda in a proselytist way...

But we are the ones who see female protagonists as political?

Isn't this admiting the meme is right? XD

This cycle of “Hollywood female character™” is getting very tiring, as it repeats over and over always in the exact same way. Some movie or series appear that is fucking crap, with a female protagonist written in this crappy modern Hollywood way, pushing a lot of proselytism/

These kind of arguments are so incredibly stupid

In the original movie the MC gets beaten up with 0 chance and only wins because he baits the predator to a lethal trap

Prey's MC fights the predator 1on1 and outfights him

Pretending it's the same thing is simply being retarded

https://twitter.com/kr3at0r/status/1556424801115422720

It's the same thing with their stupid Ripley comparison. In Alien Ripley just runs from the beast and kills him by opening a door. In Aliens she uses a gun to destroy eggs (wow) and then uses a Mecha to push the queen outside.

Pretending that's the same is idiotic

Watched Prey

Well...kinda... it was so bad i ended just jumping through the last third

Typical modern "hollywood female protagonist" horseshit I thought that maybe the Mary sue thing was an overreaction due to the times, but nope. Aside from having a slightly bad aim (which she fixes at minute 30), she's better than everyone at everything, beats a dozen guys in combat, fights the predator 1on1, the usual

Regarding the Blizzard situation...

kukuruyo.com/comic/triggerh…

#Blizzard #Blizzardrama #ActivisionBlizzard 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/

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

Found the nazi

https://twitter.com/abellehayford/status/1347980956498489344

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.

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

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.

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/

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 /

This is literally what you learn on the first year in Art school

I'm not being ironic or joking. By the end of second year at much, you have learnd to not bother wasting any effort and just pick up from the trash can and make up some postmodernist explanation. And i'm not joking with the trash can thing either. We have done it more than one time, on literally the day of presentation of the project.

You get a higher score doing that than dedicating a month to do a good project.
