@learning_yohei Brit here, and I speak English.

@AGDugin Whoever said anything about ‘arguments’ to support our existance? We exist, and that’s that. We don’t need to justify or explain out existence to anyone–any more than Muslims, Jews, or Slavs.

Whites? They are destroyed the world and themselves. To be white means to be nihilist. It is self hatred race. It caused so meany troubles to others and to itself. It lost the right to be something. No arguments to support their existence.

@realMaalouf What is the point of that, when they’re already importing hundreds of thousands of immigrants *LEGALLY*?

Japan will soon start paying a 10,000 yen reward to people who report illegal immigrants in the country. 🇯🇵

@TmAlberto This entire time, I had no idea what a scythe was actually used for. I just thought they gave the Grim Reaper a generic custom-made weapon to grab souls, making him look more frightening...

Let's Restore Britain.

@AgingAnarchist Clearly, the Japanese have not discovered India yet...

@GreentextWizard But why *was* there dust on the floor? Are we supposed to use our imagination, or...?

@CMDVision He sounds like Sean Bean...

THIS IS UNBEFUCKINGLIEVABLE IS THAT A NORTHERN BRITISH VOICE ACTOR IN WITCH HAT ATELIER??? HE JUST LIKE ME FOR REAL 🥹

Finally, some representation! Anime needs more British voice actors. Especially gruffy northerners who sound like Sean Bean.

@ReviewsPossum • “Well, that was a thing…" • “…He’s right behind me, isn’t he?"

Am I missing any? • Postmodern "deconstruction" of a genre that thinks it's more clever than it really is. • Everything is ironic because they're afraid attempts at sincerity will be seen as cheesy. • Bathos (when something serious happens but the drama is immediately undercut by a joke). • Fucked up moral lessons such as portraying selfishness as good. • Aversion to heteronormative romance. • Unlikable "strong female character" who talks down to everyone. • Fetishism masquerading as progressivism. • Villain is a thinly veiled stand-in for the writer's dad. • If it's a sequel, prequel, adaptation, or remake, then it's written less like a story set in that universe, and more like a metacommentary about the franchise where creative decisions are based not on what's natural or logical, but on audience expectations or the subversion thereof. • Protagonist was always perfect the way they are and they just had to learn to unleash themselves instead of improving or overcoming weaknesses. • "This is a good character because they're really powerful." • Conflating high stakes with high drama. • Soapboxing. • "It's sci-fi/fantasy, so it doesn't have to be consistent with its own internal logic or established rules!" ("space wizards" argument.) • "Who cares whether or not it makes sense! What matters is how it makes you feel!" Because these things are mutually exclusive somehow. • Female villain is only evil because of something a man did to her. • "The man-eating, soul-stealing, vampire rapist spider people are just misunderstood. Humans are the real monsters." • "Capitalism bad. Now here's a thing we included just so we could sell toys of it." • Pop cultural references. • "LOL drugs." • "Isn't it funny that we're drawing attention to this trope we're doing? We're so much smarter than those other shows and movies that do the same thing because at least we're self-aware!" • Ugly on purpose for no real purpose. • Snarky and irreverent protagonist who quips and has a witty retort for anything said to them. • Sexualizing women bad, sexualizing men good. • Safe-edginess that's just casual bigotry toward acceptable targets such as straight men, French people, American southerners, etc. • Old IP "reimagined" for the "modern audience". • Protagonist is a shameless self-insert. • "Humor" is "person I don't like dies." • "Muh realistic anxiety attack!" • Someone told them "write what you know" and what they know is coffee shops and porn. • Cute, child-like thing is evil. • "Traditionally heroic virtues are bad, actually." • "I may be a cannibal who burns down orphanages, but at least I'm not a racist!" • "Morality is subjective! Unless you disagree with my politics, in which case you're objectively evil!" • Thinks they can make a scene "emotional" by simply showing a character crying when they haven't done anything to earn that emotional moment. • Dialogue has a lot of "ums" and "yeeeahs". • Memes in the place of jokes. • "Creative" insults that are just swear words combined with other words, like "fuckstick", "shitballs", or "bitchmuffin". • Adult characters talk like teenagers. • Characters use internet slang in real life. • All male characters are stupid, evil, or both. • Baby talk combined with excessive profanity. • Male protagonist gets pushed aside for a female character. • All characters who oppose the protagonist (and therefore the writer's ideals since the protagonist is the writer) are strawmen because the writer cannot model other people's minds. • "Why tell a timeless story that will resonate with future generations when I can make it about my pet political gripe of the week?" • "How can I show that this character is unique and rebellious? I know! I'll give her blue hair and a side-shave!" • Sexual preferences/gender identity is a character's entire personality. • Stupid gotcha argument presented like it's profound wisdom and always goes unchallenged. • "It's a made-up story, so we can do whatever we want with our adaptation! Who cares about the author's intent or the reasons they wrote it how they did?" • Performative support for whatever happens to be the current political issue of the moment that no one will care about in five years.

Los fans japoneses le acaban de declarar la guerra a los artistas extranjeros por meterse con el diseño de Frieren. Una ilustración que "reimagina" a la elfa milenaria se hizo viral, y el público nipón no tuvo piedad. Destruyeron al artista acusándolo de insultar la obra original, señalando que es "preocupante" la costumbre que tienen los occidentales de modificar los diseños a su antojo en lugar de respetar el material.

@isfjcutebear This is AI Generated, isn’t it?

Average South East asian

@WorldByWolf @Nigel_Farage @RupertLowe10 Yeah that’s because the media has gone into firewall mode. None of the pollsters included RB in any of their options until RB broke 4%. The media class knows that Rupert is a bigger threat to the established order than Farage. They hope that by ignoring him, he’ll go away.

I’ve probably been among the top critics of @Nigel_Farage on this platform in the last 18 months. But what I will say about Farage is he’s incredibly visible. Constantly doing interview, press conferences, photo ops, etc. Why do we almost never see @RupertLowe10? I think he’s done a few interviews, recorded a few clips, and has done a couple of campaigning days since Restore’s launch in mid-February. Farage beats that in 48 hours. Visibility is King. Get him briefed and get him doing media and touring the country. Restore at the moment is a one man band and we don’t even really hear from the main man.

@iePZECEEl495970 Aroused to anger and irritation, more like. This whole sibling invest trope is a complete fantasy by porn addicts, and people who grew up without any brothers/sisters. I’ve never understood it and don’t know why it’s so common in anime.

兄って妹に発情するの？

Does anybody else find it really endearing and cute when Non-native speaking people try to communicate in broken English? Am I the only one who feels like we’re going to miss out on these miscommunications and awkward moments now that AI translation has become so advanced?

@Sapporo_no_MASA @h_shonenn Oh I see… I wasn’t aware. However, in the West, there is an ongoing epidemic of female teachers seducing teenage students. It is very bizarre and none of us are sure what to make of it. It would not be out of place if the same thing were happening in Japan too.

@DevonBatHunter @h_shonenn フィクションですよ。
