A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.

punk rebel ecks posted:

To be fair I've been watching anime staring mid to late twenty somethings lately (One Punch Man and ReLife), and despite some cultural differences I can really relate to the main characters lives. They live alone and try to find stable well paying jobs. However, you can tell that they fully haven't stepped out of the "youth" demographic due to having a wide age range of friends and acquaintances. Your mid to late twenties is a very long and weird transitional period. You begin to find the days of youth very alien yet you are still distant from "model adulthood".

That said, the shows do take a conservative look in the life of those struggling to get their foot in the door. It's almost as if poverty is a taboo topic in Japan.

I guess I'm alone with this... :(

Obama increase adolescence to 26 with insurance coverage
Maine is increasing the cigarette smoking age to 21

Only problem is we're dying younger and there's nothing to do/seemingly worth doing/possible to do

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

1) You have an unhealthy obsession on jumping on specific words rather than continue the conversation point about extended youth and adolescence
2) You have an unhealthy obsession with Maine
3) You are unhealthily obsessive.

anime is for jerks because only jerks by anime.

under a socialist system, anime would not be made strictly to whims of redpill ancaps with a questionable sense of fashion and even more dubious concepts of personal hygiene and consent laws so plots will revolve around people, places, and things other than 9000 demons taking the form of eight year old girls

Opioids have done more to fight fascism in the US in the last two years than socialists have ever accomplished.

Hicks != authoritarians.

Many hicks are more socialist community members than their city counterparts due to reliance on religion and being neighborly
Many hicks are trapped in their social class by authoritarians who create the situation

Equating authoritarian=white and hicks=rural is as dumb as you assume your target is.
Especially when opioid issues are an issue mostly of class, and not the class that would be ruling to impose their authority over you.

*normal brain* Afghanistan was invaded to kill Osama bin Laden.

*quite big brain* Afghanistan was invaded to sate the American need for revenge after 9/11.

*somewhat transcendent brain* Afghanistan was invaded for the trillions in minerals known to reside within.

*cosmic brain* Afghanistan was invaded by the deep state to end the Taliban's crackdown on opium production, in an attempt to obliterate Real Americans.

Especially when many rural communities actually gather together with a large portion of their population.
(low population+religious congregation)

Granted it also depends on how you define hicks, but the whole conversation is based off from you monolithising a subset of people.
