Why do SJWs like anime?

[Zbk3VmLfujjzjxBd43tL]

Ai, it worries me too, as recently some Japanese SJW's have appeared as well in the midst. Such as a Pokemon VA, and more.

Honestly, I don't think we're near the end of this currrent cultural zeitgeist, call me cynical if you will, but I think it's going to get far worse and develop in more countries. (Such as recent findings of feminism in South Korea, SJW's showing up in Japan as mentioned: Native Japanese at that) and more.

Which Pokemon VA? Was it someone other than the artist who'd done barely any actual work for the franchise other than doing the art for a few of the cards and IIRC designed one Pokemon (Heatran IIRC). Jap SJWs are nothing new and have been around for a few years, but I can't find any evidence they're anything besides a minority on Twitter and maybe a few other hives no one caters to that endlessly screech ABE MAN BAD when they aren't screeching ORANGE MAN BAD (since SJWs in every country care about American politics way too much). It isn't like here where the small minority ended up being treated as the "pulse of a generation" and have politicians and corporations pandering to them left and right. That shit wouldn't fly in Japan (since corporations like to make money), and it won't more than ever since they can see that "get woke go broke" is a thing even in the more liberal and woke west.

Megalia/Womad in South Korea have been around for a few years and are likewise regarded as crazy.

It's amazing to me how threatened people are by fantasy these days, look at the fear over the Joker movie causing the incel uprising, 20 years ago when Christians were upset over Harry Potter is nothing compared to the modern left, the only thing Christians really said about Potter was that it could be a "gateway" into the occult considering the books really did deal with occult themes and considering how many of the generation that grew up with it really are into the occult for real well, I'd say their fears were justified.

To some degree you're right, but when the fundies said "gateway into the occult", they meant it would cause a literal epidemic of demonic possessions and an increase in Satanic murder/rape/child molestation cults, not a bunch of edgy Hot Topic Wiccans.

A better example is Pokemon which they claimed was Satanic and promoted evolution. How many people got into the occult or turned away from creationism because of Pokemon?

Something to consider that many forget or have cognitive dissonance of: In the past people said Asia would never have SJW's their influence wouldn't spread there. That has been provably wrong. People said they would never have any major influence, again that is incorrect.

The thing many are mistaking when it comes to Japan is yes, it won't initially set in yet. It might bide it's time, but keep in mind in America, SJW's existed in the 1960's/1970's and no one thought they would resurface let alone manage to take over education and institutions at such a large magnitude or infiltrate science prospects and more and yet they have.

Right now it's not happening, but as we've seen from the past these SJW filth like to slowly manifest themselves and slowly infiltrate every aspect of life until they can enforce their beliefs on society and many don't care of the monetary losses, because that is not the goal.

It's small now such as in Korea, and not many SJWs in Japan who are native Japanese, but even in the 1960's/1970's SJW's weren't a large group and look at the trouble and damage they've caused already. I could be wrong, and maybe they won't get power or expand upon their power, but the problem is those who merely laugh at their grasp of power and influence forget we made similar claims in the past and they weren't correct of when these lunatics power would yield. Just because it took years doesn't mean we shouldn't be weary of if or when they do manage to gain in Asian countries more than they already have set in.

That's dumb as shit, Japan's had moral activists since at least the 80s and numerous politicians there have tried to put the kibosh on things like lolicon for much the same reasons as the west has.

Anyone who thinks Japan is some conservative paradise untainted by the evil Liberals is a moron.

As for SJWs in America as you mentioned they were a thing in the 60s/70s and lost all cultural power and relevance in the 80s so too will the modern strain in either the 2020s or 2030s.

I don't disagree there have been moral activist, but most moral activist groups don't literally commit the act of subversion of their own. These aren't just random hippies within these groups hugging trees.

It's less that people think it's a conservative paradise, and more that people underestimate these groups, whether you call them progressives, SJWs, communist, extreme leftist, woke patrol, whatever. The title is not important it's magnitude of actions,in comparison to other activist of similar reputation that makes them a more extreme version and why I think people should be weary of their influence and what happens when they reappear.

They lost all cultural power in the 80s? Then how did they get a hold of controlling big tech, or the education system. My friend that is the same mistake I just pointed out is a misguided belief. They never lost power, they merely bid their time, climbed the latter of multiple industries and corporations and then re-emerged because then they had a power grasp or a foot in the doorway. In the 60's and 70's they were literally just rift-raft, yelling randomly in the streets. Yet they've made that big of a jump in threshold?

Just because they are a minority to a degree doesn't change they purposely went after seats of power so that although they are outnumbered they would be in an advantaged state in society.

Merely my point is, people are making the same mistake of understimating them just like around 3 years ago. I'm seeing the same underestimation I saw then, as I did 5 years prior to that, and that's what gives them the foothold. They never lost power, they just figured out a way to gain it and obtain an even better power... Influence.

Yes they were culturally irrelevant in the 80s which is why the Left had to reinvent itself in the 90s under Clinton who pandered hard to an apolitical Gen X after suffering humiliating election losses to Reagan and Bush I.

Also I hate to break this to you but the Left didn't take over education. Academia's always been a hotbed for Leftist ideology and was ground zero for the Hippie culture of the 60s and 70s.

Point is these things come in cycles just like the New Left fell out of the cultural mainstream to make way for the Moral Majority so too will Woke Culture.

Why does History only begin in the 1960s for so many people?

The cultural mainstream doesn't matter; Who controls the institutions of power does.

The point was that "cultural marxists" or whatever Leftwing boogeyman Poltards screech about didn't subvert the education system because it created them.

How is it a boogeyman if it also created the entire education system? And I seriously doubt the people who introduced the Prussian Model into the United States were all left wing either.

They went absent through the 80's because actions were going on behind the scenes of society. that doesn't make them irrelevant, just absent in their actions or not transparent which are two different things.

Yes, but there are magnitudes of leftist ideology. I know plenty of "leftist." Who do not believe this country should sell out the tax payers at a tune of 120 billion (approx) to illegals, or genocide White people. There are multiple groups of every political wing, this extreme version is not normal. They have carried over, it's like comparing cults. Many small time cults had no influence. They literally vanished after a few months to a few years. Then you get cults like Scientology, who not only gained influence, but have been documented as literally infiltrating our government. Just because we don't hear anything similar from them currently, doesn't mean in a vacuum they aren't currently occurring, and even if they did, you wouldn't know about it until far later if it ever gets found out.

And also when you mention hippies like I said, some teacher spouting hug the trees, is not equivalent to the same thing as a group wanting America to be flooded with illegals, and a hatred for a particular race.

Yes, I understand most people think it is merely a social zeitgeist or what have you, I don't agree with that analysis, because each of these new cycles is creating a more escalated (in extremism) group. In a sense, Communist started out as "just a random political party" too. They didn't become extreme or cause issues for societies (historical issues) in a day. It took years, and parties like the communist also vanished to the public eye in historical over view, but there's a difference, between some random extreme party that showed up once and disappeared and the communist who show up cause major issues, vanish from societies view, and then reappear causing more trouble, or the likes of Anitfa joining these groups which were literally a group of communist who were as violent as the Nazi's in 1930's Germany. (The group even waves the same flag as that group just slightly altered, it's not a coincidence they dawn the lable and act the same)

Like I said when you see the evidence, that these aren't just hippies hugging trees, and are joined with far more extreme groups who have subverted cultures in the past, I merely warn this belief that they'll just vanish or that this is momentary zeitgeist hasn't been proven yet more than expected based on a false premise of these groups.

In other words, a social cyle in society of right wing and left wing gaining power, is not the same as a symbolic analogy communist and corporatist or even fascist switching power through a society. One is quite normal, the other is a dire warning or something to be weary of in a society. You may disagree and think it's merely a momentary lapse, but I heavily disagree with what we've witnessed from this group over time and re-emerging over and over again. I believe people are underestimating them, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

A good amount of SJWs are weebs

true enough, if you look at the cosplay community, it consists of reetards with mainly women with (he/him)(She/Her)(Xir/Xim) in their social media bios and hating muh cis straight people.

But like I've said, none of these people are actual fans of anime. All of them thought Goblin Slayer was the most gruesome and abhorrent anime to exist because one 3 minute rape scene in the first episode. it's nothing compared to most of the 80's-90's anime.
SJWeebs would have a mental breakdown if they saw Violence Jack

Personally, I think all the SJW's who bitched about Goblin Slayer should be forced to watch Angel Cop (the uncensored subbed version) and Ninja Scroll, and then watch all four Urotsukidoji movies right afterwards.

Which is funny as hell considering the idea of demonic possession, exorcisms, and shit like that had more or less died out completely until the Exorcist came out.

I quit anime a few weeks after Goblin Slayer and I see its exact trope everywhere: Unique, shock-factor opening episode or two, then revert back to C-tier stories, and in case of manga, D-tier and keep it rolling for years. Even the best of harem Slice of Life with a unique twist becomes boring after 50 chapters, because the "i punch womyn" edgelord main character becomes any face-less hentai self-insert without a spine.

Goblin Slayer became tame after the first few episodes, while the manga is the product of a single individual wanting to tell a grotesque story. It starts out fine, but as per usual, once you get the edge out of your system, you need a story that treads water enough to keep you employed for a few years. This doesn't work in anime, and often the manga chapter to anime episode ratio raises a lot between episode 1-4 to 10-12.

GS got more attention than it should've, and SJWs don't like that. But again, why would anyone like a person so obsessed with their own beliefs to the point of dictating the lifestyle of others? It's the exact issue with sexuality as well; "listen to me and myself, so you can act accordingly to satisfy me, but I won't care anymore once I am, so ultimately you gain nothing".

This is an odd thread to skim through three years later. It seems like anime's largely fallen out of their favor. Maybe they finally gave up, or the weebs actually managed to keep them out sufficiently enough. Thoughts?

SJW's always hated anime.

They'd give a pass for Sailor Moon (because muh nostalgia) and My Hero Academia (because muh capeshit) but otherwise were always very hostile towards it.

But at this point, who even gives a shit anymore?

I’m willing to argue that since Netflix has been losing subscribers and hemorrhaging viewers, to even Hollywood having to still rely on China for more popularity being used to make their movies popular with international markets, it mostly seems like their American fans are being left out to the dust when their opinions don’t mean anything anymore.

That and plus the Cowboy Bebop live action series was just proof that the weebs were just making jokes about the series than actually watching it.

I think to this day if you have any weeb shit in your portfolio and you try to get into CalArts they'll kick you out. Though I guess ever since Helluva Boss proved you can make animation in current year without the bullshit they've been fading out of relevancy.

 

[Aero the Alcoholic Bat]

I was always under the impression that they're simply obsessed with it.

Whether that's loving anime, or hating it.

 

[SSj_Ness (Yiffed)]

Same reason they like sci-fi, their impossible insanity can thrive only in a Holodeck or animated form.

 

[Wormy]

Anime isn't a genre, it's a medium. There's ones they like, ones they don't. That simple.

I think to this day if you have any weeb shit in your portfolio and you try to get into CalArts they'll kick you out.

Only if it's the "usual" anime look. If you're rocking something that looks more like Junji Ito or Otomo, it's cool.
