My friends were complaining about trans people getting Pikamee cancelled. They were saying how Pikamee is the next big thing. What the hell are they talking about Jesse? :jesse-wtf:

      Makes the gamers’ inevitable outbursts even more stupid

      What is it with Bernkastel profile pics and just having the shittiest opinions online? Have you even played Umineko mate? Completely missing the point.

        Anime profile pics remain roughly a cointoss between comrades and nazis, with the coin somewhat weighed toward nazis.

          Yeah but Bernkastel is a character from Umineko which among other things

          Pretty heavy spoiler for Umineko which is an amazing VN so play that instead of reading this

          has multiple gender non-conforming characters that experience dysphoria. These aren't played as a joke or anything. The entire story could be summed up as "Learn how and why this gender non-conforming character did the things they did and empathize with them to solve the mystery."

          I'm not saying the representation is perfect as this was written by a cis man in 2007, but the comment goes against the entire foundations of Umineko. It's like watching Avatar and saying "Yeah we need to burn more trees down."

        The fucking "Proud Boys" are based off of an extremely stupid blue curtained interpretation of a song from Aladdin, so it doesn't matter to them either way.

            We're called Proud Boys because I went to one of my kids' music recitals and some ponce got up there and while everyone's playing the piano and the violin and doing stuff they tried, he gets up and he goes, "Proud of your boy, I'll make you proud of your boy." It's some song from "Aladdin." And I was looking around for the dad because I thought there's no way this dad is proud of his boy, and of course, he was the child of a single mom...duh! His mother told him, yes sing a song, that's a talent, and there was no dad to say no you're not, play the piano for christ's sakes.

                Imagine what an incredible piece of shit that nazi is to his kids, and to his entire family for that matter.

                I truly hope those kids become comrades.
