In the west there's a common tradition of the noble rogue.
Robin Hood, Guy Fawkes, Billy the Kid.
It's a hold over for dealing tyrannical monarchs in Europe. Continued into the US. Adapted to being a frontier hero.
That's why figures like The Monkey King translates well. Westerners understand a hero that arrogantly scoffs at the ruling power and lives by their own wits and resourcefulness.

どうして西洋人の多くが窃盗を正当化することを嫌う日本人の考えを理解してくれないんだろう?

@luckynosu @NCyotee 義賊という立派な言葉はあるんやけど、どう説明する?「鼠、江戸を疾る」の小説やドラマでを見て自分の視野を広げてみたら?
これだからオールドタイプはねぇ...

@NCyotee 西洋の作品でだけそれをやってください。日本を巻き込むな。日本は盗賊は盗賊。そして日本では気高き盗賊であっても、捕まれば処罰を受ける。

@NelielATW @Rin_Vixen Tell me you don’t understand the story without telling me you don’t understand the story.

@Rin_Vixen Idiots like you are why fandoms die from the inside. We’re here for the story; no one actually gives af about connecting anime and politics.

@BulwarkOnline I swear to god I thought this was AI. What the fuck is even going on in America

@mcabfe89 @slothsaretight3 Yeah, and that reason is the majority are idiots with the memories of goldfish. Maybe give your brain a bit of a workout and ask yourself how often SONY releases full theatrical content exclusively on NETFLIX.

There's a reason this was dumped on Netflix with no marketing

@slothsaretight3 Comments generally proving further that people have the memories of goldfish. Sony execs had more confidence in Madam Web or Morbius than this.

@JoelWBerry Fucking idiot. At least google or check Wikipedia before you show the world you shouldn’t be allowed to pass your dumbass genes down.

Thank you Trump for restoring space exploration after Obama halted it to turn NASA into a “Muslim outreach” organization

What the Artemis II astronauts did over the last 10 days was a testament to their bravery. And the fact that they traveled farther from Earth than anyone ever has, re-entered our atmosphere at more than 24,000 mph, and splashed down safely was a testament to human ingenuity. Thanks to everyone at @NASA for making this mission possible, and for taking us along for the ride.

@miura_takako The immigrants and tourists didn’t turn your currency into toilet paper value. Your useless and corrupt politicians did that.
English

@miura_takako If you actually care you need to figure out a way to stop the populace from electing useless LDP clowns who have been driving your economy down for decades. Japan has always been a huge tourist destination. But now it has turned into a cheap tourist destination.

あー、やめてやめてやめて。

毎年神宮にはお礼参りに行っているが、外国人観光客が正宮の写真を撮っているのを見かけるようになった。
神宮は日本人にとって聖域。
無料で入れるテーマパークにされてたまるものか。

@thatnxggahim @SpencerHakimian Couldn’t believe it at first but they were right. And his success made more sense as Americans love their celebrity worship.
English

@thatnxggahim @SpencerHakimian I remember when he won the first the first time I said something like “can’t believe we got a washed up reality star and not even like a proper good actor” and someone hit me with an “actually his show was super successful and ran for like 16 seasons”

@Michaeldudufudu Bruh probably never been to a fucking museum. Some of y’all gotta do more than consume youtuber slop all day I am begging you.

@RobeltDora Personally, I would put that as a result of the heavy regulation and lack of use case outside of art pieces. I was mostly pointing out it’s literally the opposite of America where guns are not heavily regulated and can even be carried for self defense in public.
English

@CapitanSlooooow Hold on a second, that's a misunderstanding. Every Japanese person is entitled to own a domestically produced sword.
The only question is whether they want to own one.
English

This is pretty funny (and sad depending on your perspective) because 99.5% of the Japanese populace cannot own anything more than a dull metal stick nowadays. Legitimately the absolute opposite of guns in America in their current states.
dora@RobeltDora
アメリカが銃だってんなら日本は刀だろう。
English

@RobeltDora That is why I put the 0.5% in there. Though that is probably exaggerating a bit as it’s not so prohibitively expensive so I could see a higher percentage of people owning. As you say, the main point is the lack of drive or motivation to own one for most people.

In 1998, Master P would release his 7th album “MP Da Last Don” going Quadruple Platinum. A year later in the Fall of 1999, he would become the first rapper to make it to the NBA playing for the Hornets & Raptors #BlackHistoryMonth
