What racial slurs did he use and in what context? I’m not sure what projection you are seeing here. Is this a case of “he disagrees with me so he is Conservative”?

Except you called for him to be dropped “drop Jontron”. The only reason being that he holds Conservative views and was will to express them. I think he is wrong, doesn’t make him a piece of shit.

He came out as a conservative more or less and went on a stream with Sargon of Akkad, an anti-feminist/anti-sjw/insert buzz word for the farrrrr left. He expressed views against BLM, Feminism, immigration and bunch of other issues that will get you labeled a Nazi and punched.

Yes! Everyone with center/center right views must have their livelihoods stripped and away. Than we can put them all into some sort camp were they can work off their debt to society for wrong think. Or we can just give them a free shower “wink wink”

God to be arrested over a joke, that is just sad.

Do you really think that all of those rest belt voters that switched from Democrat to Republican, breaking the Blue Fire Wall, was Millennial Bernie Bros?

“the falsehood that Clinton lost because she didn’t appeal to the “working class.”

I’m glad for all those excited, but I don’t get it. A character is now gay in a game where it will never, ever come up. The only way to find out is to read the comics, which I imagine a large portion of the audience don’t. Unless they add in a pre game dialog.

I think it fine for us (American or anyone) to criticize Anime, Fan Service or anything else. The problem is when it goes from criticism to “I don’t like it so change it!”, which seems to be a strong under current in D’Anastasio writing on the subject.

“it’s clear that there’s a path to success for anime without gratuitous fan service.”

I hate the fact that Russia is linked to these leeks. Here we have clear examples of corruption and general shaddynees of the DNC, media and the Clinton campaign, but we are expected to ignore that, because Russia.

I will not say that I agree with the way Nost is handling this, but to me they are in their rights. If you can no longer get a game or it’s not available to you in anyway. I say that emulation is 100$ A-OK. Also something similar did happen to Nintendo in the form of Operation Rainfall. That ended with numerous gamers…

As long as, the conversation is opinions vs opinions it won’t get anywhere so a solid study or two would go a long way

I guess if you want to get technical none of them are, just molesters, kidnappers and attempted murders.

“that they are actively turned off from anime because of these fanservice moments.” Not everything will appeal to everyone tho. I can stand Moe, the whole cute girls doing cute things doesn’t appeal to me, so I don’t watch it. I don’t expect Moe to change to suit my taste.

It’s all about those Jerky Knees. As long as, you are giving an opinion the accusation is baseless. I do think that changes when you call for changes based on that opinion.

I wouldn’t say the majority are against the conversation, but there is a sizable group with jerky knees that believe to even entertain the conversation legitimizes the oppositions opinion. My basic stance is just add more verity when it comes to things like this. Also I can never wrap my head around something like…

Isn’t that just the nature of the beast? To break it down this is a discussion about the perceived problems with anime, using (in this case) a feminist lens. The goal of these discussions is typically to fix those problems. If you don’t agree with fanservice being a problem than people trying to remove, change or…

Despite Sword Art Online being pretty main stream it also slips into some shit. There is basically three rapist in that show (counting the tentacle monster) that killed it for a lot of people. The show being crap is what killed it for me, but that’s just my opinion so it’s a fact.

I won’t lie, I enjoy the occasional fan-service centric show although rarely. I would also agree that it used as a crutch, but that is far as I go. I find it hard to accept that it’s a problem. Anime is pretty varied medium and it’s not hard to avoid the things you don’t like. Take Moe, I pretty much hate that crap…
