Posted in the general discussion, but I think this deserves it's own post.
So, I was listening to Clownfish TV's (pop culture commentators that has a good feel on the culture wars) recent episode discussing the mess between DeSantis and Disney, when one of the hosts mentioned, briefly, that "right-wingers" are now attacking anime on social media.
This is surprising news for me, so I want some evidence if this is true and what is going on, because I have a feeling that there is more to this beneath the social media surface that might negatively impact our GreatAwakening.
Nothing turned up so far when I searched YouTube and Truth Social was equally quiet on that front, so I was wondering if it was a hoax.
who cares about anime again?
Weebs
And those weebs are getting increasingly angry at the troons who keep invading and trying to ruin their hobbies. Gatekeeping has ramped up dramatically as a result.
Speaking of weebs getting angry at trans loonies, see the whole mess with Vtuber Pikamee. For the "crime" of entertaining the thought of streaming Hogwarts Legacy, the trannies ruthlessly bullied and harassed her to the point of retirement. That left many Weebs and Otakus forever angry at the Trannies. And if you haven't been at the receiving end of what kind of wraith the Weebs and Otakus can bring, you don't want to find out.
And some of them still harassing her after her retirement while others are pretending it never happened after 4chan started doxxing the harassers.
I honestly don’t know what you just said
And Otakus in Japan.
...And Fujoshis.
