Absolutely insane rizz from Rick and Morty’s conversation with a 16 year old fan pic.twitter.com/jy7pXiVdpI— Normal Marty 🇺🇸 (@MartyAmericaUSA) January 15, 2023
So I had to go back and check on some old episodes to see if there is anything in them that seems even more sus now. In the pilot episode when rick takes morty out of school and makes him get him some special seeds rick says some really creepy shit that was weird when I first heard it but now it's especially gross. Morty breaks his legs and rick has to go to a future dimension to get broken leg serum. He goes off about how this dimension has cured aging and that everybody there is young and has been forever. He then tells morty that "there were a lot of attractive women there. I had a lot of fun with a lot of young ladies." He spent so much time in that dimension that his portal gun lost charge. When it first came out I remember thinking "ew maybe he means like early 20s young ladies" but after this whole thing I assume that Roilands idea of a fantasy future involves being an old man in a world full of perpetually young women with ages as low as 16.
George Lucas talking about the Indiana Jones movie
Lucas: Fifteen is right on the edge. I know it’s an outrageous idea, but it is interesting. Once she’s sixteen or seventeen it’s not interesting anymore. But if she was fifteen and he was twenty-five and they actually had an affair the last time they met.
That was in a weird way a very normal part of culture untill recently. This keeps poping up because a few generations after his we all agreed not to do that and never talked about how prior generations remained how they had been
Something that doesn't get mentioned in the conversation about anime pedos is the fact that in Japan a lot of video content that was essentially softcore CP was legal until 2012, meaning that it developed an entire industry and audience that didn't just go away after the ban. So they all spread out into adjacent industries and you see this huge uptick in CP-baiting anime, "junior idols" etc in the last decade and the only way to kill it off is big government censorship frankly because the free market failed.
Yeah, I gotta mentally double every number I hear. Japan has a weird marxist thing so there is a commonly accepted materialist explanation though. Which is wild to me. It is a good counterpoint though, who else woulds have time to go on adventures except kids on summer break?
I think the capitalist exploitation is so severe in Japan that people would rather age regress that accept a work life. The fetishization of high school is excessive and very unhealthy. I remember reading a manga about high school kids, them being on a school trip and gossiping before bed. One character says, "These are the best times of our lives!" If that's true, what does that say about Japanese culture at large? Why are you expected to peak in high school?
If I am correct in my analysis they never really liberalized before modernity. So there are still lots of old ideas rolling around in the culture along with development of modernity. If my math is right just recently is when the last of the culture makers who had any memory of pre-modrrn living would have bene replaced. Cause when you think about their post war adjustment there were still plenty of places that were fully pre-modern. so in a better world that would be fascinating to examine.
I heard good things about the show so I decided to try it out. I got as far as episode 6, when there was graphic CSA as an important point of the episode. I was so disgusted that I dropped the series and never picked it up again. I'm feeling pretty good about that decision right now.

:japan-cool: has apparently never had this conversation and it shows. I like anime but the amount of :epsteingelion: is extremely disturbing.
