the way anti-fan service people talk about Japan and otaku culture is textbook Orientalism. they portray Japan as uniquely backwards and perverse in the same way colonialists talked about Arabs. in almost any other context it'd be called out as racist lol
I'm so beyond sick of these retarded fanboys in every fucking fandom constantly trying to gaslight everyone else that the reason people don't like the newer things is because they're miserable now, rather than the new things just actually being shit.
This whole "you were happier when you were younger, you just have nostalgia for the things you liked as a kid" is nothing more than bullshit to make you back down from your criticisms, shut up and question and doubt yourself.
But its bullshit manipulation. Always has been. Always will be. I've dealt with the same shit from retarded degenerate scum like this and I know for a fucking fact that it doesn't work this way because I played Fallout 1 and 2 AFTER I played Fallout 4 and I fucking love the first two games and I despise Fallout 4. The difference in writing quality is clear as day. I watched Andor and actually enjoyed it because the writing was good, whereas all of Disney's other Star Wars movies and shows have been pure unfiltered dogshit. The difference in writing quality between the OT and even the Prequels is a night and day difference from all of Disney's shit, aside from Andor.
Yes, nearly every entertainment franchise is fucking crashing and burning. These delusional cocksucking losers trying to convince you that the quality has remained consistent over the past 20 years OR are trying to convince you that things you like have always been shit are liars.
@RimaEvenstar "I'm gonna be honest, I do not care for Filianislost"
"How can you say that?She's an influential vtuber"
"Oh yeah no, very talented person, do not care for her"
"She collabed with Dooby, Nimi, SABA!"
"Yes all very good vtubers, I do not care for her. She insists upon herself."
@JJunkWarrior Everything's a debate now. Everything's a stance. A statement. Sports, games, movies, TV, the food you eat, the clothes you wear, the way you walk, talk, think, and speak. Everything is an opinion, and you have to prove yours superior.
There's no humanity in being human anymore.
