these pepes dressing up as NPCs is such a spectacular self-own.

so their criticism is that libs/leftists make everything about Donald Trump and how he's bad, so these 4channers bring politics (and the most obnoxious kind) to a party and make the whole thing about Donald Trump. it's just someone who has no interest outside the internet or politics, you have to know that poo poo is mood-killer

they're going to be roleplaying as a boring person, because they're boring. they aren't the life of the party. no one is going to want to talk to them or be around them, but they wouldn't want to anyway because their personalities are repellent. it's a defense mechanism for the defensively-ironic, and they're going to think they're trolling people by ruining the mood for everyone else. they're ruining it for themselves too

only someone with the personality of an NPC would dress up as one.

they are doing it for the same reason they do any of this poo poo, and it is to find compatriots and enablers among strangers.

Whether they realize it or not, doing this poo poo feels best when they get people to fight each other about it and they learn who is willing to defend them. It feels good but it also enables and encourages escalation beyond inflammatory trolling and into reactionary political activity.

thats my political analysis of why reactionaries enjoy trolling libs, and why socialists should do it more (visit your local dnd thread)

imagine taking anime that's an allegory for the horrors of living under american occupation and thinking "wow, i wish my life was like that"

It's not really about American occupation per se, because the military occupation only lasted until 1952. It's more about Japan's acquiescence to the forces of global politics and its embrace of authoritarianism in the reconstruction to be a trusted partner in the American order. These effects are heightened by having an alternate history where Japan sided with the Allies, but the Nazis won WW2 and occupied Japan instead. Japan is still ruled by a collaborationist government, but a fascist instead of conservative one. Oshii himself was a left wing student activist and saw all the ways the country repressed democratic politics.

I'd expect more nazi darkwave in the near future. Also I know it's pointless to talk about how fascists don't get art, but the point of Jin-Roh is that fascism is so totalizing it becomes impossible to be a human being even if you want to.

Okay, here's the only part I don't get. What's up with the alleged woman he approached to frame Mueller also being fake? And apparently whoever they are was peddling the Wohl stuff to left leaning journalists weeks ago?

Flagrant idiocy and incompetence neatly explains everything else, but that would seem to make it look like this is some kind of poorly conceived double-reverse frame?

Ok, I'll bite, what anime is it?

Arbitrarily guessing based on the priorly posted "fashwave" video (literally titled "Right Wing Death Squad"), they're talking about Jin Roh. The central plot revolves around the dehumanizing nature of military occupation in an alternate 1950's where Nazi Germany occupies Japan. The animated movie is framed by the perspective of a member of what is best described as a right-wing death squad, the fictitious "Special Armed Garrison" of a Japanese metropolitan police unit, as he slowly dehumanizes himself after failing to shoot a protester/terrorist/??? and she detonates an IED she's carrying at a student protest. The "fashwave" presentation deliberately ignores the trauma the protagonist visits on himself to ignore his conscience, the brutality of the SAG, and the general state of the dystopiac society in favor of "wow that robot suit and MG34 sure are cool!".

Of course, the self-harm of people as they try to fit into a fascist society, police brutality, and the lovely conditions of occupied areas is more of an attractive feature rather than a problem or injustice to the sort of people who think "fashwave" is cool. After all, they'll be the cool detached badasses who benefit from and inflict violence rather than the person getting stomped on, right?

now that I'm thinking about the idea of "fashwave" as an attempt at creating a subgenre, it's strange how fash never seem to come up with their own aesthetic, instead preferring to co-opt existing styles; e.g. Anime Nazis, "W A R A E S T H E T I C S", etc., yet insist that they are the vital front of culture
