When talking about western animation: Nuanced serious discussion about how it's deep, beautiful art

Basically any time anime is mentioned: "OMG, ONLY REACTIONARY PEDOPHILES LIKE THAT SHIT LOL."

Feels lowkey kinda racist, ngl.

      If someone told me that they were really into western cartoons and watched them almost exclusively, I’d probably avoid them too. I’ve never met anyone like that though.

      Have you never met a Rick & Morty fan?

            At this point we’re just getting into a “Did not! Did too!” -level argument tho.

            If you're going to say "there's a problem with lowkey racism here," you should come up with at least one example of what you're talking about. The folks saying "I don't really see this" can't prove a negative, and without some sort of example of the alleged problem it's far too easy for people to come in and stir up shit.
