Sarcopenia posted:Tbf he should have left when he made that stupid rear end "Urgh, can't call a woman alleging sexual harassment by one of my friends a liar because she's black and disabled" post. All I remember him saying was that we didn't have the full story and he couldn't share it for ~some reason~. So what was the full story then?

It'd be great if someone could link to Dan's actual post, because I'm having a hard time believing it was as bad as some people are implying. He's basically the last person I'd ever imagine saying something like that.

Thanks for digging that up, but it still sounds like something done in a moment of frustration that doesn't reflect his usual character. It also sounds like there was a lot going on behind the scenes involving people he knew personally, that he didn't feel it was appropriate to share with the whole internet. Of course, the smart thing to do would have been to just not say anything rather than hint at stuff he couldn't share, but frustration makes you do stupid things and it looks like he regretted it immedately after.

Doctor Spaceman posted:I thought Shaun was also talking about Germany at that point. Germany is the example he illustrates, but the point of the quote is to help explain why US bombing of civilian targets in Japan was strategically ineffective/unnecessary despite the massive death toll. And by making it about "totalitarianism", he then undermines his point by bringing up the Blitz as another example of a failed morale bombing campaign. My point is that 1. Shutting down fifth column groups while your cities are being bombed isn't some uniquely "totalitarian" thing, or even something supposedly "totalitarian" governments are better at 2. As Shaun mentioned, a bigger issue is that the evidence seemed to suggest that while morale bombing may have made civilians unhappy, for the majority of them it didn't make them less willing to fight Basically it might be a snappy quote, but it 1. Wades into the thorny question of "what is totalitarianism anyway?" 2. States that whatever it is, it gives some kind of Civilization-style resistance to morale bombing 3. Implies that there exist some "non-totalitarian" states that could be defeated through morale bombing 4. Leans on the myth that the actions of the German and Japanese governments were the actions of a few bad actors and not supported by their citizens It's a shame, because the video is almost entirely perfect apart from that one quote.

Dabir posted:The Blitz failed because the British government also didn't give a toss about the safety of their citizens hth demonstrably false, in addition to the protective measures the British undertook to protect civilians, the blitz mainly failed because the Germans were taking unsustainable losses to both aircraft and pilots. The terror bombing campaign was also less effective then what the Luftwaffe had been doing previously (Attacking the RAF directly) and the Luftwaffe also failed to adequately target Britian's war industry—so even as civilian losses mounted, the Luftwaffe was growing weaker while the RAF was growing stronger until the campaign was called off entirely to prepare for Barbarossa.

Bahi JD is probably my favorite currently famous sakuga guy, partly because his story is so wild (he's from Austria and managed to be so good and passionate that he was able to force his way into an incredibly competitive and insular industry) and partly because his animation has such a fantastic sense of natural flow to it. The thread was talking about the bad FLCL sequels a bit back, but they did have some good animation buried in there courtesy of some really good animators including Bahi:

I mean it's fine if you don't like sex jokes and all but Darkness' bit is her skeeving out literal monsters with her BDSM fantasies and still being less of a creep than Kazuma most of the time. It's a pretty big difference compared to Mineta's thing of 'aggressively sexually harasses other students and kinda just never does anything useful to justify them hanging around him'

Parakeet vs. Phone posted:^I don't like his adaptation as a whole, but they nailed the casting for Rorschach. If you're not done with AH in all forms, Ray/Brownman's been pretty dece in my experience. It was cool as hell seeing him go from 'Oh god, when do I actually play the loving game' years ago with Yakuza 0 to then giving it another shot and going 'This game's amazing! How did I not like this last time?' and blitzing through the entire series in like 4 months short of the side games and Judgment.

I mean, she's a little too enthusiastic about her kink and all but no more than any other anime character with shtick and less than some others, and even manages to be a good tank sometimes unlike Mineta who is a horrible garbage child.

Darkness straight up tries to rape Kazuma and is only foiled by the wacky punchline that she doesn't actually know how sex works, which trips her up long enough that the rest of the party can rush in and stop her.

That Rankin-Bass video is amazing. They’re absolutely right about Community and the other shows doing it wrong by giving too much movement to the face. That’s a claymation/California Raisins thing from later. And that Smokey the Bear video—good god! I never thought I’d see stop-motion bears fondling each other and one accuse the other of being a cocktease. The 60s were not good.

Dapper_Swindler posted:quiton did one on uknown rankin bass stuff This is great stuff. I was sort of aware that Rankin Bass did a lot of stuff few people had heard of, much of which was batshit, but not quite the extent. I had watched some of The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus, but I completely missed that it had the voice cast of The Thunder Cats. Maybe I'll make another go at suffering through it at some point.

Sarcopenia posted:I personally think that the way he talked about it afterwards made what he initially said worse. The closest thing I see to him apologizing is some Boogie levels of "Oh no I'm so depressed feel bad for me"-poo poo. He didn't seem to regret what he actually said, he regretted that it sounded bad and would invite more attention/drama to it. It was some chuddy bullshit and if it had been said by a creator that wasn't liked by this thread the tone would have been so different. Like yes, we don't personally know any of these people... So why are you giving the benefit of doubt to this person? Why is it ok for creators you like to basically say "I think that my friends are good people, they didn't do bad thing!" without giving any explanation as to why we should believe them over another stranger that claims to be a victim? Well personally I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt because I've been watching Folding Ideas practically since it started and there's no hint of a chuddy attitude in there. The opposite, in fact. He's spoken out against gamergate and 8chan and taken a lot of online abuse because of it, including having them spread rumors that he was a pedophile because he exposed their sharing of child porn. So when someone with an otherwise excellent track record makes a couple of ill-advised posts, I'm inclined to believe it was just a lapse in judgement and not a sign that he was a secret rear end in a top hat this whole time.
