Why do SJWs like anime? -

[Kuchipatchi]

I've been thinking about this for a while now and I don't understand how SJWs, haters of sexy depictions of big-boobed, sexy ladies and toxic masculinity, can spend time reading manga or watching anime. Let alone making fan art of the characters (albeit in their own twisted head canon and ugly styles).

What is it with anime or the people that keeps them around?

 

[SiccDicc]

Why does any zealot like a thing? To convert it. If they get loud enough they can convince corporate to think they're the majority audience and shift the narrative of the hobby or entertainment.

Plus Anime just tends to attract degenerates in general -- no matter their stripe.

 

[Clintonberg]

Same reason why the alt right loves smug underage anime girls despite hating women and non-whites.

They're retarded.

 

[Dangus Bang Boon]

Its in the manual... duh.

 

[From The Uncanny Valley]

They only like "approved" anime that quickly dies out- like Yuri on Ice or Tokyo Ghoul or that volleyball show

 

[The Shadow]

I think they think it makes them quirky and "interesting".

 

[Kratos' Beard]

Oddly enough, it's a niche they can't exactly convert or force any agenda to. Anime studio don't give a shit about what filthy gaijin thinks about their products.

 

[REGENDarySumanai]

Because they want to be seen as hip and in touch.

It’s a tad ironic since Japan literally allied with Nazis and is today a pretty misogynistic and classist nation.

SJWs love to go through anything with a fine brush, like an archaeologist, hunting for things that offend them. You would think they’d have a problem with anime. Lack of inclusion of POCs is a big one.

They like it in the same way the like video games/TCG/Comics. They think it like an accessory or flair. I think this is why they try to force change on to these communities so it wont be problematic when they are associated with them and why they honestly never get why they tend to be "toxic" and not PC.

 

[AF 802]

I thought SJWs didn't like anime because it's literally fascist.

 

[Imperialist #348]

very much the same way locusts like anything that contains or has food.

the horde comes in a hurricane to destroy or transform whatever is enjoyable and leave nothing but a rotting sometimes shambling corpse.

Most anime produced is simple and feel good and glosses any sort of complexity in human interactions. It simplifies existence to a few basic emotions. And, by reducing the human conscience to such a state, the mind becomes blind to the cosmic horror that is nihilism that breeds within all of us. For older generations, survival was more of a focus alongside use of the religion to guard themselves against nihilism. However, younger generations do not have this protection and, as a coping mechanism, will distract themselves with non-complex things or even dumb things down like anime, video games, gender/sexual/racial identity, and politics. This is not say you can't enjoy these things; however, more and more young people are enveloping their entire existence around these things in order to protect themselves.

(Sidenote: This is one of the reasons why words are equated to violence. If you make someone susceptible to that terrifying, nihilistic voice in their head, you are effectively trying to kill them because that voice will make them want to kill themselves.)

This can also explain why weird fetishes have exploded in the past decades. People have grown so afraid to the idea that nothing matters that they will develop their entire identity around some weird thing that either makes their peepee hard or their vag wet.

Overall, SJWs like anime for the same reason anti-SJWs like anime... because they are cowards who need to distract themselves from that "call of the void" voice in the back of their head.

It's a accessible way to fake a personality. Also, there's definitely enough weird shit in anime that it's not all big boobs and robots. Utena probably launched a million dangerhairs, and it's like... what? 20 years old now? 25?

 

[Tranhuviya]

Because they enjoy it.

You're really watching the wrong stuff.

 

[Sinner's Sandwich]

mlms have a yaoi fetish, troon men like anime girls and anime boys who look like girls. The rest of the gendertism snowflake spectrum also likes anime because of gay shit but they hate it at the same time because the characters aren't fat, ugly and brown.

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

Because it's a new medium for them to infiltrate and exploit.

 

[BigMoney]

I don't know probably women with swords and shit.

 

[SwanDive]

In my experience, they've only ever liked the clean, non-fan service anime about the power of friendship and shit. They also don't like shit like Legend of the Galactic Heroes or Jin-roh, because those dirty neo-nazis on /pol/ like them.
