@japananon @Jazzy_Butts I just wish she could deport/kill all those jeets I see around. I don't care if they have to increase the pay for baitos and physical labor people and thus the price of everything, I just want them to disappear.

@japananon @Jazzy_Butts

Having not followed the debate/arguments on this in a long time, my understanding was that gay marriage in Japan would require amending the constitution (cf: Article 24).

@japananon @Jazzy_Butts Both sides want to ban porn, it was literally the UN globalists who're trying to get Japan to make hentai illegal for years. At least RW policies will make sure that the streets are safe and clean and that the tourists who disrespect the local fauna and flora get deported first before they focus on media morale.

Up to now, nobody's home in Texas got raided for just loli.

@ehhh @japananon @Jazzy_Butts (((UN)) wants to replace fictional porn with blacked and mainstream onlyfans whoring like in the west.

@ehhh @japananon @Jazzy_Butts Ah, so we would've gotten NWO type censorship out the ass on otaku media regardless of who won?

@Ronnie21093 @Jazzy_Butts @ehhh I think censorship was in the cards no matter what, and personally I'd say looking to government to help with that is a lost cause. I expect censorship from anybody with power, whatever party/faction/side they happen to be with.

Anti-censorship measures work best when they're bottom-up, not top-down. Torrenting has survived a quarter century because of this, and any good solution needs to follow the same blueprint. Swarm them with a thousand nodes of a distributed network and all they can really do is try to cut heads off the hydra faster than they grow back. Some people will get caught under the boot (sadly), but the whole will be able to survive.

There will be a reckoning where people making and distributing otaku media have to decide whether they're going to be cucks to the censors or operate like outlaws. People who choose the former will get winnowed out, and the rest will have to form subcultures of their own. Fedi is already starting to grow into the latter from what I can see.

As for Takaichi, all I really want from her is to be an absolute hardass on immigration, keep the low-quality third-worlders out, and address the needs of Japan for the Japanese first and foremost. The censorship shit we can deal with, and we'd get it either way, so it's better to only have that to deal with and not be doubly burdened with infinity browns and Muslim headchoppers forming enclaves.

@japananon @Jazzy_Butts @ehhh "The censorship we can deal with" How? When you have a population who's as pacifist as Japan's, how do you fight against state sponsored censorship? I seriously cannot see the average modern Japanese citizen actually rising up to fight against censorship. At most I expect them to complain for a bit on social media.
Basically what I'm getting at is that as long as state sponsored censorship continues, otaku media is fucked because the average Japanese won't fight back.

@Ronnie21093 @Jazzy_Butts @ehhh People can surprise you when they have their backs to the wall. But I don't think of it as "fighting" censorship so much as avoiding it. Or rather, ignoring it and routing around it. Some people will be willing to go underground, some will come around to it eventually. Most won't, but that's just the way people are.

The trick is to make the cost of enforcement as high as possible. As long as enforcing a law is too costly and difficult to do reliably, there's room for people to go underground.

@japananon @Jazzy_Butts @ehhh I personally feel like you're being too optimistic.
Companies are companies, after all. I doubt most of the major companies will go underground since they wouldn't make much money operating like that.

@Ronnie21093 @Jazzy_Butts @ehhh I don't think the companies will be able to be part of it, no. I can only see indies surviving. Which is why I've always felt they're more important and deserved more attention.

@japananon @Jazzy_Butts @ehhh I don't see indies making full seasons of animes, sadly. The cost of animators and voice actors would be too much for indies to afford for a full season.

@Ronnie21093 @japananon @Jazzy_Butts @ehhh >The cost of animators and voice actors would be too much for indies to afford for a full season.

This is depressingly true and easy to see if you've ever followed any smaller, say doujin, anime project. Go to example would be Fantasy Kaleidoscope ~The Memories of Phantasm~. Making a doujin anime of Touhou was immensely difficult for the circles involved, so much so that there isn't any voice acting (which is why any release with a VO track sounds a little odd, the series was never officially voiced). It took over a decade to release 18 total episodes, each shorter than the TV standard 20-24 minutes. Episode 18 had to serve as a sudden and unplanned ending too after things stopped working out (though after a two year break an episode 19 has been finished and is soon to be sold).

That's on a far smaller scale mind. To keep up with an anime season to be properly recognized, you'd need a full cour of show to air weekly for 12-13 episodes. It's a daunting task for even the most organized of groups.

@Iffine @Jazzy_Butts @ehhh @Ronnie21093 If you want to keep content at the rate/scale you have now, you'll need large corporations. And they'll always be easily censored. So if that's a requirement, then yes, you're fucked.

I realize it's not anime, but Space King is a good example of a model that seems to work out. Good quality animation, infrequent as it might be, funded largely by fan support via merchandise. It can be done, but not at the scale we're used to. So I'm just saying, either lower your expectations in the name of being free, or accept that you'll always have either globalist shitlibs or conservatard zealots adding studio notes to things you love.

WHY DEY DO DAT TO MUH SAIL FOAM CAIN BUHLEE DIS IS HAPNIN RIGH NAO SWEAH TO GAWD ON GAWD BRUH YAW BETTUH FIX MAH MUTHAFUCKIH iFOAM BITCH I'MA GITCHO ASS

@japananon @Jazzy_Butts @Iffine @ehhh What we need to do is work on convincing Japanese citizens to rise up and actively fight against this bullshit rather than do nothing and complain. Because otherwise eventually it will get to the point where even indies aren't safe due to laws being implemented that could get someone jailed for producing "problematic" content in any form.

@Ronnie21093 @Jazzy_Butts @japananon @ehhh @Iffine

i do my part, but even japanese who are awake to the jewish problem refuse to admit the only real way out of this is violent rebellion. I talked to some members of 統一教会 when I was back in Oita last month, they asked me what is a solution to all of these problems. I told them the answer they didnt want to hear.

@japananon @Jazzy_Butts @Ronnie21093 @ehhh Ah, an either or isn't quite something I like. Not that I'm opposed to a change in standards, but rather that it's not fair to say something is impossible or unachievable just because it, under normal standards, needs megacorp funding.

Why, pray tell, does an anime company need to be public or owned by a public megacorp? What's stopping someone from raising funds through other misc projects to build up a company and make a series through normal means? Sure, for an indie or doujin series this is impractical, though not impossible if aiming for the long run. It would take a lot of work. It would prove a challenge and may even kill the company in the end. That doesn't mean it shouldn't be considered as an option. Hell, it used to be the standard thing creative types would do the second a company started acting in a disagreeable manner. Needing to be free is just another false dichotomy, costing money isn't a bad thing, and pirates aren't the end of the world.

I know I just talked about how impractical indie anime is but man if I don't hate seeing this sort of defeatist attitude. Prematurely deciding that everything is a lost cause without any nuance or second thoughts.

Honestly, we'll just have to see how it goes. I pray for the best but things can definitely go bad.

@Ronnie21093 @Iffine @Jazzy_Butts @japananon Nothing is ever guaranteed, but if locals are eyeing on her to keep her true to her words, then it's the best whitepill we could get.

@Iffine @Jazzy_Butts @ehhh @Ronnie21093 If you see it as defeatist, that's on you. I see this as a realignment. Everything is based around megacorps because it's easier to censor and control. That's not an accident, that's by design. I want to see an underground flourish outside their control. If that means accepting changes, having a lower volume and output of content, then I accept it.

If you think a large scale megacorp funded industry is possible without control and censorship, I'd very much like to hear how. Because I'm not seeing it.

@japananon @Jazzy_Butts @Ronnie21093 @ehhh >If you think a large scale megacorp funded industry is possible without control and censorship, I'd very much like to hear how. Because I'm not seeing it.

This isn't what I said. I said the opposite in fact. There doesn't need to be a large scale megacorp funded industry to create something. Companies and creative works don't exist entirely at the whims of megacorps just yet, we don't live in cyberpunk fully. Believe it or not, with money and time it's still possible to start up a company, or even without a company proper works can still be produced. Besides, most anime aren't produced in the week between airing dates, a production can take as long as needed to prepare before release.

I do not hold indie games to lower standards than other games, rather I hold them to the standards of how enjoyable and well made they are for their respective genre. That's not me calling the games bad for being smaller, it's being truthful with what I want and hoping creative works can flourish through criticism and dedicated work. If it's impossible to fathom creating something in a different, possibly larger manner without bowing down and sucking the cocks of every megacorp on the planet, then I don't know what to say.

@Iffine @Jazzy_Butts @ehhh @Ronnie21093 Then we're on the same page. Chuck the corpos, help the indies. And route around the censorship when it comes. Nothing's going to disappear, it's just going to adapt.

@japananon @Jazzy_Butts @Iffine @Ronnie21093 Megacorps and its decisions are fueled by MONEY. If they make unpopular decisions, they will degrade over time.

@ehhh @Jazzy_Butts @Iffine @Ronnie21093 That'll be true again when we can strip out the NGOs and government subsidies that are perverting incentives. One of the reasons bringing Sweet Baby/BRIDGE/etc down is an important task.

@japananon @Jazzy_Butts @Iffine @Ronnie21093 Yeah and those guys are already losing money and hiding their socials when the masses are calling them out.

@Iffine @japananon @Jazzy_Butts @Ronnie21093

Can I get an A

Can I get an I

@ehhh @Iffine @Jazzy_Butts @japananon I'd rather commit suicide than watch an "anime" generated by AI, thanks

@Ronnie21093 @Iffine @Jazzy_Butts @japananon that's more for me.

@Iffine @Ronnie21093 @Jazzy_Butts @japananon I feel like a lot of people tend to forget that most animes are created like a VERY expensive advertisement for the original work - often times a LN or a manga, which tends to go far beyond in terms of story and sometimes technical explanations than what could be fit into a standard TV show.

@Ronnie21093 @japananon @Jazzy_Butts Will you avoid AI even when it's seemlessly integrated into all entertainment?

@ehhh @Jazzy_Butts @japananon Yes.

@Ronnie21093 @japananon @Jazzy_Butts Western fans are bullying the AAA Karens in videogames online and it's working. I can easily imagine the Japanese following suit.

And when they do it's not just gonna stop at removing blacks from video games.

@japananon @Ronnie21093 @Jazzy_Butts @ehhh

brown rapists in kawaguchi. They are the new pokemon, gotta gas em all

@Ronnie21093 @Jazzy_Butts @japananon possibly maybe??

in this political climate libertarianism is not a priority stance. only people crying about free speech now are the same ones that suppressed all conservatives a few years back, so no one is really giving a shit atm.

@ehhh @Jazzy_Butts @japananon Someone in Texas got raided for just loli?

@redneonglow @Jazzy_Butts @japananon @ehhh

as they should be.

@redneonglow @Jazzy_Butts @japananon i don’t know, you tell me. I said nobody’s home in Texas got raided for just loli.
