@jisoo198420 Hate doesn't justify hate. We can be better than this.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@aaaaalllllltooo @momopip69095820 Ask them.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@oji_chan_ja @HelveticaMi Both can be correct because ideas are malleable and free. Correct doesn't exist to begin with.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@ruby_spaniel928 @mara_cazz0 Very Fi response lol. Fi are like tsunderes.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@ruby_spaniel928 @mara_cazz0 You are projecting a lot of things, I don't mind about these trivilities. The cosplay is cute.

I find the beauty of the fiction in what it can tells us about ourselves, our world and how it makes us feel rather than a full escape of reality.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@oji_chan_ja @HelveticaMi Explain yourself, what do you mean?

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@ruby_spaniel928 @mara_cazz0 While find the essence of reality through fiction this essence cannot exist without basis in the real world.

When japanese write something they use their own mind and this mind willl be japanese. So in this sense its impossible to write a purely fictional world.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@ruby_spaniel928 @mara_cazz0 This essence only exists because fiction can only come from reality. Fiction is a mirror of reality so fiction becomes what the reality of the person seeing it is.

You can't separate the worldview from the real world. The essence is just an illusion.

@noroke_desuyo @amatubuman Well lets look at facts.

Foreign and Japanese crime is roughly the same

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@noroke_desuyo @52EFKDhfgB7FGXk Yes, to begin with a lot of Pokemon player characters are immigrants themselves.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@ruby_spaniel928 @mara_cazz0 Fiction is an idea and ideas cannot be wrong. For example if I draw a circle and tell people its a square, that idea will be more important than my intent.

Chracters are the same. Mexicans for example see Goku as mexican, because of his traits. This idea is more important.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@noroke_desuyo @amatubuman True colors? Not sure what you mean. I genuinely believe that someone is not more dangerous just because they are not Japanese.

When we see reports of the contrary they are all fabrications by right wing groups.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@ruby_spaniel928 @mara_cazz0 Believing in something is not forcing others. Forcing would be getting the police or military to do something. Just holding the idea is not forcing.
The official canon is not something as respected here, we care more about our personal interpretation.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@oji_chan_ja @HelveticaMi Japanese and other cultures see characters and fiction differently. For example the creators wishes and intent matter less than the perception of the characters than you hold "on the inside".

This is because the idea of identity as something unique is not that special in Japan

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@noroke_desuyo @amatubuman Those are false facts. They are lies.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@ruby_spaniel928 @mara_cazz0 Based on my conversations of here I understand their view a little more. For example you see as characters belonging to their creators. We see characters as belonging to the audience. So what the audience belives matter more.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@LR_SN_Entry @mara_cazz0 That is very fair. I just would ask to try to always lead with empathy and understanding. Things are better when we understand each other, even if we don't like it.

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@LR_SN_Entry @mara_cazz0 Its a big world out there with a variety of different ideas and ways of thinking. Doesn't that excite you?

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@LR_SN_Entry @mara_cazz0 My sister will visit in February to see the cherry blossoms. In her MaoMao cosplay.

Another thing, the idea of not wanting people that think differently from is known here as "Xenophobia"

[jamz @jamz57966488]

@LR_SN_Entry @mara_cazz0 We don't have gods. Creators are just people like you and me. If I create a character I don't feel I own it. I write short stories and what matters is how people perceive them more than what I want.
