Oh yeah I first saw that on a miniminuteman YouTube short. At first I thought, no way, then he played the clip in context. And uh. Yeah. Woof. That’s a Nazi salute alright.

As an aging anime fan… I tend to agree with Miyazaki’s take that anime is made by weird people for weird people.

Sometimes being a bit of an outcast gives you perspective and you take that and make someone great.

Sometimes it turns you into an incel who creates characters that totally aren’t pedophile bait, no sir, they’re 2000 years old! They just so happen to have the body of an 8 yr old.

The conservative anti-woke scum of the Internet who love anime can’t tell the difference between the two. It’d be funny if it weren’t so sad.

I think I’d put it this way - I like adventuring, exploring, and finding my way through an immersive world. I don’t like when I can’t seem to stumble into the exact right clue or secret passage or interactable and waste up to possibly hours scouring the same locations over and over.

That said, metroidvanias are my favorite videogame genre. I just had to accept that it’s okay to look up a guide or wiki before I get fully tilted.

You misunderstand. This IS Trump’s chosen stooge. FTC Chairman Carr.

He’s complaining about tech companies “censoring” conservatives for “speaking their minds”, aka being hateful bigots and spreading misinformation during a public health crisis.

I’m unfamiliar with the context for most of these. Plenty don’t look like Nazi salutes. To me, anyway.

But literally every word that has slithered out of that moldy potato’s mouth for the last two decades is all you need to know he’s a white supremacist.

That is unfortunately the truth of it.

I’m one of the burned out wage slaves. I like my job, at least, but I’m struggling just to keep my life together, let alone society.

I know that’s true for almost anyone who would be part of a resistance, but the learned helplessness is real.
