@ItoIian @kloss_xyz @DreamweaverOnX To do what, and what are you bringing? This is not 2004, Chinese themselves struggle to find jobs or get funding for anything these days. Not sure why you think you’d be getting anything over the locals, unless it involves teaching English or making travel Tiktok videos.

@peeked_abyss @otomenat It has to be random to be a coincidence. If the choice is 7 times out of 10 just a set of racial features that exist in the real world in another population (Germany for example), then it looks like copying another race. Why never single eyelid or black skin and afro hair?

[Leon @leonddgx]

@peeked_abyss @otomenat If you argue the choices of features is purely random, that at least makes sense. But I am not sure it is true because Japanese characters don’t seem to ever have afro hair and black skin, or single eyelid. Why not? Isn’t it all just random fiction with uniform probability?

[Leon @leonddgx]

@peeked_abyss @otomenat Yes, but there also is no need to give them features from Germany. If you argue that blond hair and blue eyes is just as random as other fictional looks like green skin and one eye, then that makes sense - but not sure it is true.

[Leon @leonddgx]

@peeked_abyss @otomenat I am just pointing out that a character with blond hair and blue eyes does not look Japanese. You look good as you are, no need to argue that Naruto looks totally Japanese in the cartoons. And, anime is for children and socially retarded nerds.

@glm_mike @jxzdmzw This guy’s country is the US and he is saying the US gave him hardship and overall sucks and China is better. What do you think of this? Is he wrong for criticizing his own country (the US), turning against it and praising China rather than his own country?

[Leon @leonddgx]

@jxzdmzw But in this case, his country is the US, and he is saying it sucks. Do you look down on him for it or no?

[Leon @leonddgx]

@Dante56E @otomenat No one claims that it is. But some are claiming it is a realistic depiction of how Japanese people look. And you also disagree with that if you think the depiction is not realistic.

[Leon @leonddgx]

@peeked_abyss @otomenat Blond hair and blue eyes is part of a different racial group, unless the depiction of that combo is equally randomly happening as blue hair and orange eyes. Humanness depiction never involves a beak, wings and feathers. Anime also never picks curly hair and dark skin for Japanese

@Ninnin_0418 @lovecamile101 @rosw2PszbDAoNT4 @ChrisinLiuzhou Go read the other comments to get a sense of the overall dishonest response in this thread. Not to mention the barely sentient retards sending me “nmsl” in DM for pointing this out. Or the laowai white knight tourist guy who went on a whole rant about my comment being smear.

[Leon @leonddgx]

@Ninnin_0418 @lovecamile101 @rosw2PszbDAoNT4 @ChrisinLiuzhou So then, what’s your problem with me pointing out it exists? The first guy’s claim that workers’ feelings are treated with great compassion and equality was self-praising sloganeering. No need for all you to whine because I point out reality that disagrees with the slogan.

[Leon @leonddgx]

@ChrisinLiuzhou @Ninnin_0418 @lovecamile101 @rosw2PszbDAoNT4 You are too (intentionally I hope) obtuse to ack the point without strawmaning. You went on holiday and made it your whole identity to play white knight. Beyond being your exotic fetish, China is a real country - it has good and less flattering sides, like everywhere else.

[Leon @leonddgx]

@Ninnin_0418 @lovecamile101 @rosw2PszbDAoNT4 @ChrisinLiuzhou No one claimed otherwise. One guy claimed that service workers’ feelings and equality is greatly valued in China. I pointed out a common example of that being false. If you claim your house is incredibly clean, pointing out that there are cockroaches in your kitchen is relevant.

@ian76426554 @gniuconsulting Exactly. His parents told him China was poor and bad, he shows up and sees it looks cool and now concludes China would have been heaven for him. He doesn’t know the tradeoffs, hence the naive takes such as “I would have loved grinding for the gaokao”

@dalibali2 Spy does not imply James Bond incognito mode rappelling down a skyscraper at night. It is a lot more mundane, and a lot more ambiguous - much like the whole Epstein situation for example

[Leon @leonddgx]

@AN_7717 @companytrifecta @wholemars You must have seen bad photos. She is middle aged, but she definitely looks better than average of the same age in China, let alone Taiwan or US. Not even close to average middle aged

[Leon @leonddgx]

@jlin9201 @companytrifecta @wholemars Not to mention the weird stories of how he likes to party with the interns at nvidia or something

[Leon @leonddgx]

@sergiverdugo_ You stayed for a few days as a tourist, spare us the civilizational analysis.

[Leon @leonddgx]

@Lange_2026 @_FORAB She looks much better than average in Taiwan, and it is not even close
