@adg_144 there are multiple big reasons why this is happening. the biggest one, I think, is that people just gave up on Japan even attempting to distribute some of their media. it's been going on for decades, there's very little change, and people are giving up.
@threehearts_02@shotarosheep_w0 another reason is that gaijin otaku culture started in personal computer circles, and that treats copyright somewhere between a suggestion and a nuisance.
and since computer is a must have for a gaijin otaku, this attitude towards copyright rooted itself.
@threehearts_02@shotarosheep_w0 the basic reason for disregarding copyright is that the situation where there are no legal sources for media has been common for 25~30 years now, basically since the inception of gaijin otakus. people are very much used to it now.
So, about Ukraine. How much of the blood spilled needs to be a proof that making an ex-KGB man into a president of the country is bad idea for everyone?
