yeah the US aren’t criminals, they’re very careful to pass laws to make what they want to do legal before they actually do it, you see

That’s very interesting sir, now could you please face the wall?

never ever ever concede on any of this…

all those “oh I would have supported you if it weren’t for X” are all gaslighting and manipulation, no they wouldn’t. They just have an excuse now. Being “one of the good ones” doesn’t work. The people who hate us and opress us are the ones that have to change, not us

hope you find something you enjoy!

the franchise has absolutely nothing creepy on children. It actually has nothing creepy on adults either (which actually constitute the protagonists of the series in fact!), none of the designs are sexualized at all in the first place. It’s hard to even find cleavage. that is if you stick with canon works and with places that have reasonable fanon works like dynasty works. if you go to like… nhentai, where you have to set 30 blacklist tags to not be a creep, then yeah there’s lots of touhou stuff for creeps sadly…

nahh touhou is really cool, the fandom has parts that suck and parts that give you the best friends of your life, stories that are p*do pandering and stories so good that can leave you crying for an hour, it’s immensely huge and a big point of touhou is self expression so you can find basically anything touhou related

if you’re interested I recommend you read this!

Not… really? I can’t think of a kid character who is also canonically a maid, there’s maid fanart of everyone cuz that’s just a popular trendy thing

b–b-b–bbut that was satire copium

Godot bros stay winning… how do they deal with so much winning?

I mean in terms of political action and rhetoric, mainly

there are literal canon trans characters in touhou

also the “lolis” are just kids, none of them are sexualized or treated sexually in any way in canon material

I do think GNU and the FSF have really stagnated though…

TOUHOU IS CONSERVATIVE???

oh my god I do not want to know how the person who thought this interpreted it

I frequently did think that the world sucked, and I loved fantasy another world anime (not necesarilly reincarnation stuff) because it drove me out of it… I liked thinking about adventures of saving the world and slaying dragons and such, it seemed so much more interesting than to dedicate my life to surviving via a bunch of meaningless green paper… everyone thought it was my edgy phase but I didn’t really grew out of that feeling I just tolerate it a lot more than before. after joining this place and starting to read up on things, it makes so much more sense to me, it’s not mindless doomerism, capitalism really sucks the life and meaning out of things

it really is dehumanization, army propaganda makes you see “the enemy” as barely humans. as nothing more than absolute monsters. I hate it so much

but it literally IS like this

I know a person who genuinely was looking forward to the US invading China, even enlisted on the army for it, because “the PLA supports literal genocide!!”

the absolute anihilation of korea? “it’s their fault for attacking.”

like what the hell and I’m the one doing the whataboutisms???

20% of the korean population… how in the world is that not called a genocide?

I remember almost drooling when I saw the SpaceX “renewable rocket” launch so many years ago

it turns out it just landed back on earth it can’t be reused it needs to be repaired basically from scratch again anyway

:'D

Don’t declare yourself defeated, even defeated,

Don’t feel yourself a slave, even a slave,

Trembling with dread, think thyself brave,

And strike out fiercely, even bruised.

.

Have the stubborness of a rusty nail,

That now old and dastardly is a nail again;

Not the cowardly intrepidity of the turkey

That dampens his plumage at the first noise.

.

Proceed like a God who never cries,

or like Lucifer who never prays,

or like the oak grove, whose greatness

needs water and does not plead for it.

.

May your head bite and shout avenging,

Already rolling in the dust!

It’s a military junta, I really doubt they have socialism in mind, but I just read in the news that they supposedly raised the price of uranium to the same price canada puts instead of charging literal cents for it, so I think they definitely want to break free of france, I really hope it goes well
