      The weeb brigade is here to imply I'm a bad person for recognizing the rampant sexualization of minors in anime, great.

        Awesome to see chapo.chat going from "don't be defensive" to "oh god oh help me they are attacking me".

        It all started with someone simply saying "its easy to avoid just pick better stuff". That is a siberian winter take at best.

        You probably need to read more on this website. Many people posting in this thread already had a number of posts over the bad issues in anime elsewhere in the past. Stop making a strawman when literally nobody here denies anime has bad stuff in it. You are not in fact in r/anime.

        However you want a hill to die on, apparently everything is bad including the mainstream stuff(I'd say the mainstream stuff is actualy the most innofensive but anyway), sorry but its on you. You are allowed to have your opinion. Just don't expect others to agree.

        There is no discourse here, only someone looking for a hill to die on. Pick better stuff. I can make a MAL list if you want.

          I'm not chapo.chat, I'm just a person.

          And they literally did attack me. That's what "stop telling on yourself" means. They are implying negative things about me in the very comment I replied to. I wasn't being vague, I was directly responding to the contents of the comment.

          Stop making a strawman

          A strawman is when you directly reply to the things other people are saying?

          However you want a hill to die on, apparently everything is bad including the mainstream stuff

          Again, I'm not even the one who said that. I was responding to someone who said that all the sexualization of minors takes place in "mainstream shonen trash." Not my words.

            I’m not chapo.chat, I’m just a person.

            And they literally did attack me. That’s what “stop telling on yourself” means. They are implying negative things about me in the very comment I replied to. I wasn’t being vague, I was directly responding to the contents of the comment.

            Pretty sure it all started with this

            It is hard to avoid even if you don’t watch mainstream shonen trash. No need to get so weirdly hostile in defense of your treats. Separate your media interests from your sense of identity. A criticism of media you like is not an attack on you.

            Your strawman is

            I’m a bad person for recognizing the rampant sexualization of minors in anime

            You should know better, don't make these types of generalizations when people here are the exact opposite. You were rambling about the "weeb brigade" so not even one specific poster.

              No thats literally what the person in the comment I replied to was saying. They were implying that me seeing a lot of sexualization of minors in anime is evidence that I'm seeking it out and am a bad person. Again, that's what they meant by "stop telling on yourself."

              You were rambling about the “weeb brigade” so not even one specific poster.

              It was two specific posters (and the :libertarian-approaching: s upvoting them)
