Oh, so is that why I'm not permitted to take issue with something that veers far too often into racism against my ethnicity? I had no idea! SANK YOU VELY MUCCHI FOL INFOLMING ME OF ZISSU!

Have you got any other pathetic excuses for a lovely, racist meme?

If I check your post history am I gonna find out you got this mad at Lindsay using the word squint?

No, go on, please explain to me how this kind of casual racism against people of my ethnicity is nothing to care about.
The context makes it clear they only focused on anime because of familiarity not blame or intensity per se.

It's still fair to be uncomfortable but pointing out that those words aren't actually a dog-whistle is not the same isn't saying you can't complain.

Some anime is good. Some anime is bad. A pedo has a running anime on air right now. The biggest Marvel director was an abuser. Industries suck and there are cultural differences that make that suckage distinct.

I guess for Brazil it's a stereotypically overly sexual culture being used as cover for objectification and abuse.

When a person from the ethnic group that is treated as the butt of a racist joke says "hey, knock it off with that racism," the correct response isn't to try to justify the perpetuation of it and explain why they're in the wrong for being offended, you loving turd.

saying "The thing i like is trash" doesn't inherently do that.

Dias's accusation was cringe bs but no one has an "only offended at the right things" ability and acting like a dumb meme is inherently exclusionary happens to the best of us.

It's not an huge insult to think someone is being mistaken on something so small.

That might be something worth discussing, but try bringing it up without getting all the whatabouttism in the world or "but ME personally think it's bad idgi".

As a gaslighting racist gently caress, I'll say that Brazilian funk does that with underaged girls a lot so I can be called classist as well.

listen, when a shonen hero's motivation is limited to "looking for the best and most powerful fight in the world" it's not immoral for him to imprison his most powerful foe in another planet so he can fight him once in a while

No, but when that involves something that either has racist connotations, or often veers headfirst into anti-asian hate, it is incredibly frustrating to then be told "no you're wrong for getting offended at something that is often used for some lovely racist 'ror asians' bullshit."

Sure but there's a difference getting upset at a meme and accusing everyone who uses it of the same intent.

People still use pepe for harmless reasons. It's hosed up and i'm disgusted when they do but i don't think they're racist for it.

That being said if one is going to talk anecdotal(one video is that don't kid yourselves) and unsoruced generalized statements of your opponent's culture it's hardly an persuasive at best when your opponents sensitive and frankly in this case you are being a little racist. People probably bitch at it there but of course being a fan is allowed there LMAO.
