Redditfags show their prowess once again; prepare for the storm

Prepare for more reddit refugees, folks.
First it was catgirls, and now it's anime. All of a sudden, the major "leftist" subreddits on the site have declared that anime is now considered a form of pedophilic apologism, which, as it suggests, is bannable.
While I'm not a weeb and couldn't care less about this, especially on such a platform as reddit, there are consequences that this board will have to face as a result of this in the coming days.
The quality of leftypol is constantly under attack and it's reaching a boiling point once more with the high likelihood of reddit weebs ending up here in mass migration. It's purging time; rev up those gulags.

We have right wing sjw's so how can it get worse?

Why are they all run by the same people? Also if you are autistically opposed to anime you are part of the problem. Even if you don't watch it it's meme/propaganda potential should not be ignored.

Damn, we should really try to make some quality posts then. This board has been particularly shitty today tbh.

REV UP THOSE THEORY THREADS=

Anime is right wing.

No it is not.

...

mantras dont work in real leif friendo

I'm pretty surprised tbh.
Anime is gay as fuck, you would think the mentally ill SJWs at reddit would love it.
I bet they are doing this just to be contrarian to the autist aut-righters that love using animu everywhere like the good faggots they are.

Vinny is good bean, thanks for showing me this.

It's because they're all essentially power-hungry burger-centric crypo-fascist closet liberals with little understanding of history or theory despite holding these positions of power.

Yep, we've got you leftycucks on the run
all we have to do is associate with anything, frogs, anime, the universally accepted hand symbol for "ok" and lefties will drive anyone out who associates with those things out of fear of duh nadzi boogeyman under every bush

links? proofs?

Youtube e-celeb culture has re-popularized weeb hate over the last couple of years. It's probably just red liberal teenagers and normie old people (who think all anime is the same) being dumb.

The anime question is the most important question to 21st century communism.
But not only communism, but all politics

There is literally no proof of this being true. Which is disappointing.

MAX KEKS
WELL SAID BORTHER WE'LL SHOW THESE LIBERAL CUCKS HUH
DID YOU SEE THAT NEW EPISODE OF ATTACK ON HAREM PANSU?
THAT SHIT IS SOOOOO REDPILLED
KEK KEK MAGA

Leftypol is legit the only online left wing forum that isnt complete fucked up by idpolers.
The only left wing online space where you can discuss controversial things and have freedom of thought and criticism.
Also lots of shitposting.

Anime isnt right wing per say, the true story is that anyone who grew up as a kid in the 2000's was highly exposed to anime, pokemon, yu gi oh, all the shows on toonamie and adult swim. Anime was a very important part of the 2000's kid childhood.

sjws hate it because it refuses to conform to what they decide is the proper porportions of a women
and as such they try to link the fact that none of the animu girls are overweight with them being children, which is complete bollocks.

honestly this who "anime makes you a pedofag" is the fault of moeblob anime

anime is just neutral for the most part
its this reactionaries trying to make it "right-wing" because they can reconcile that in order to be a rad trad they cant watch thier panty shows since that would be considered degenerate and pornographic.
Its pretty telling that most of the dudes that claim that its right wing watch almost exclusivly shonen(anime for young boys) and harem shit as most of the real deep anime is pretty left

If you're a lefty.

If you disagree you risk getting banned for shitposting. If you fire back at shitposting with your shitposting you get banned while the lefty goes free.

I guess some mods are cool since it doesn't happen all the time, but some (Not naming them) is pretty rigid.

...

only /r/socialism and the ones with the same mods are doing it

anarchist subreddits are much better anyway

source?

What're some lefty anime? I think FMA might kinda count, but not sure it's that deep.

Go on r/COMPLETEANARCHY they got a sticky on the situation.
It's retarded

Anime, like most forms of media in the developed world, is mostly liberal. Manga is a bit better though. My biggest complaint is that the left wing stuff is usually anarchist leaning, which is weird because I would think that an asian country like Japan would prefer more authoritarian policies rather than compulsive individualism. The world needs more ML anime/manga.

I mean real anime that isnt just shoving tits and ass in your face or shit "fight scenes"
tell me what are some real right wing anime beside GATE, as that's just army propaganda

Full metal alchemist is legit set in an alternate reality Germany where the nazis won, or that worlds equivalent.
The leader is even called the fuhrer, and there is an analogous to jews with the character scar whose people were genocided by the government

Here is the source, for all the people anxiously waiting.

archive.is/5vnTw

look up most of gibili's work as a start

the movie had hitler as the main antaonist, and the fuhrer was the big guy infront of the bad guy so in no way is it pro-fascism

That Winged Hussar guy got a point…when the fuck we gonna use cropped gay anime?

jesus christ the amount of pretentious autistic larping that went into this post… I'd rather be reading one of those Holla Forums "summon kek" threads.

This tbh

I mean there is a whole series where the main characters are the axis from ww2 and they never talk about jews or any bad things that happened

The Japanese are highly actually reactionary and see nazi germany as a former ally from back in the day

Honestly I think they dislike it because they cannot make money off of trolling it. Anime fans aren't the same thing as gaymers. Many are women themselves. Also attacking anime/manga can get you into trouble with idpolers as it can be construed as a form of cultural imperialism (not that I think that the former imperial Japan needs protection from the west or anything.)

She looks like a robot.

the weirdest thing is this isnt a super new insult, I was insulted by highschool friends for reading battleroyle and they insited they were all children,
got my manga taken away it was awful


I dont anyone that likes that show that isnts some yaoi obsessed fangirl
but that fits what I was saying earlier are there any serious animes that are "right leaning"
all of it seems to be cutesy babby stuff

You know how i know you are a plebe.
You are basing your analysis on the first series which wasnt true to the manga

there is even a scene in brother hood with the state genociding people

youtube.com/watch?v=388HyLbk8bo

shit didnt see this
I mean /pol litterally claimed that microsoft took tay's brains out when they shit her down so it might be her

but the point is it is supposed to be interrupted as a good action or evil?
I'm not dening that they are nazis I'm saying are they the good guys?
Just cause a nazi is in the anime doesnt make it pro hitler

BASED REDDIT

Cuck

Yeah if I recall correctly the genocide thing was a plot by the fascist government. In fact all of their imperialist wars were part of a larger plant to create a philosopher's stone by slaughtering millions of people with the power of the state. This is portrayed as a bad thing. Really makes you think.

Cuckold porn is NAP approved!

I LOVE CUCKOLD PORN!!!

Well mustang and that big muscle guy actively took part in a genocide and they are portrayed as the good guy main characters

youtube.com/watch?v=VC1vKZPQeO8

/r/completeanarchy still allows catgirls and anime, but I think that's more about them being meme-anarchists than any real disagreement with the policies of other subs

w-what did animu girls do to them to deserve such hate?

I got banned from the sub for asking why generic terms such as "stupid", "blind", and "deaf" are considered ableist. Yes, a post calling Trump "blind" for not realizing the impacts of climate change was promptly taken down because the OP used the world "blind". That sub is cancer.

It's another episode of "Holla Forums thinks Holla Forums is liberals"

But posters here claim "victory" when some liberal sucker punches a trump supporter, can't have it both ways cucky :^)

Proof?

ofc we can lol

...

There are definitely liberal faggots that lurk here (mainly black flag posters) under the guise of having far left views, only to shill thier bullshit when ever they get the chance. Now with that said, this is leftyPOL, as in leftist politically incorrect. You can be "politically incorect" without being an insufferable faggot who bitches and moans about "MUH DEGENERAÇY", anytime you see something you don't like, or blatantly shilling stormfront shit, couple that with leftist economic theory and you end up with a pretty decent place. The same can't be said about 8/pol/, or 4/pol/, you don't even give a shit about chan culture anymore, you've been so fucking co-opted by stormfront idpol you don't even realize it.

it isnt a high standard.

i mean /r/academic_marxism is better than any of the anarchist subs but it isnt actually populated.

...

spelling is imperialism

...

And a show practically every season with nazi villains (for this one it's vatican kiseki chousokan); heck, Go Nagai was using them as villains back in the '70s.

Hetalia, despite the title, is basically /int/: the anime anyway; it's not like the portrayal of Britain or America touches on their atrocities either. It's just too light-hearted a show, the WW2 setting really only serves to define the relationships of the characters and sometimes to use the military aspects of the conflict as joke fodder.

are tankies the new eternal jew now? they're always behind everything

Where did OP detail the subs involved? You seem to know a lot about plebbit…

"I was just following orders"
come on mate

What if 10 years from now this becomes the new norm, and we end up yearning for the days of liberal SJWs because at least they wanted to help people (even if it was misguided as fuck, and with idpol). These people wanted to make a difference against people being exploited, and I'm not ashamed to ally myself with them. There is NO better pussy than feminist SJW pussy, believe me comrades.

literally user in this thread claimed there's a sticky at completeanarchy
also put away your tinfoil hat

Not OP.
Also, it's common knowledge Mao liked little girls.

Ironic shitposting is still shitposting. We really need to cut down on the memeing around here if we want our board to not become garbage.

I blame tankies for anarchism's existence

From the COMPLETEANARCHY megathread
reddit.com/r/COMPLETEANARCHY/comments/6qt03b/tfw_i_hear_rfc_is_purging_anime/
Fuck anime and fuck reddit, but nobody fucks with Queen on my watch.

I will admit that Anarchism used to be pretty fucking cool. Then after World War 2 they sold out to western capitalism so that they could be "public intellectuals" (see George fucking Orwell) and forever ruined the reputation of their various ideologies.

im ready to meme cockshott

Holla Forums should build a wall around reddit.

redactors are mostly anarchidies, not Tanks. They think Tanks are “evil Nazbol brocialists”

Not trying to defend anarkiddies or anything but the mods of r/FC and r/socialism are mostly MLs though I believe there are some anarchists within their ranks. However I am pretty sure that they are just LARPing liberal teenagers.

Can never understand why these ban policies always operate on autism instead of "you have shit taste, goodbye."


Outside Japan the only propaganda value would be to encourage American and European undesirables into the arms of Libertarian movements.
Despite saying this, I don't actually hold to the "fat loser" stereotypical weeb vision. It's precisely because seemingly ordinary people - and indeed smart people who find their way into the security services - love it that I'm turned off, even aside from questions of taste. If you want leftists, hunt the true autism hobbies like trainspotting, planespotting, and seacaptaindate.com


I liked the one about not saying spook.


That I share this viewpoint gives me mild hope that banning for shit taste could one day become serious policy for quality discussion rather than just a method for justifying my hermitism.

what the fuck gay error is this

Shonen runs up to ~18 years old. The defining characteristic is the use of furigana (reading aid for people who don't know kanji). In fact, some of the more "deep" manga (the classification is not applicable to anime other than as a reference to manga of origin, for obvious reasons) series are in that category. Older people generally prefer simple escapism to kill the pain of their sad, pointless and increasingly more precarious existence as a wage slave.


Anything SJWs do can be construed as a form of cultural imperialism. Because that's what it is. Never stops them.


YPJ fighters stage an offensive during a battle for ISIS-held Raqqa, 2017


I wish.
The existence of moral panics and assholes exploiting them to harm others seems to be a constant throughout history, and I can't wait for them NOT to associate with the left.

It gets even better if you start to read into it, OP. The autist who started it all actively jerks off to dickgirl hentai that they'd consider "pedophillic".

Anyone who has legitimate arguments doesn't have to ban their opponents from speaking.

Why don't liberals understand anime?

...

So there will be more tankies here? Fuck.

ewww fuck tankies.

This assumes all ideas are worth engagement and should be freely stated everywhere.

Sometimes it's just more convenient to shoot the fat fuck talking over the movie than it is to seriously engage him on his point about how there's an ongoing plot-hole here. (There isn't, he's just too stupid to understand pure Kinography, but that would take 5 minutes to explain while a bullet can quiet him in under a second.)

Somehow I doubt you'd be using this line if pedos (or hebes/ephebes) were in control of these subreddits and started banning everyone who disagreed with them. You'd be all for the free market of ideas then.

How can you determine which ideas are worth engaging with if you never let them speak? Most people will see that as proof that you couldn't win a debate.

hell yeah

You can usually get a feel for what posts are worth reading quickly
Furthermore posters who make bad posts tend to cluster together. If you ban people who make shit posts you can eventually whittle down all the retards until your community becomes a mere unity, or until you're left only with smart or entertaining people worth talking to.

What people think is irrelevant to my entertainment.

You're every single thing wrong with the left and with the world in general.


If being smart and entertaining are your criteria for who should be allowed to post, you should be banned immediately.

you spelt leftcoms wrong

heh

If you seriously think we're going to derive new, valuable insights by having threads about how THE JEWS dominate the banking sector and how videogames are fun on this board then you need to drink petrol immediately.
Perhaps, but perhaps that would motivate me to my true calling of creating a board dedicated entirely to discussion of Harold Wilson.

I'm not advocating for him to be banned. I'm pointing out that if his criteria were used, he would be banned.

Fair enough; I'm stoned. Although I'm often entertained by this socdem's posting, tbh.

Defintely noticed a trend too OP.I think many are Liberals lapring as commie in the main left subs. I got banned for saying the USSR was Socialist in /r/soc(Dem) and then in /r/Full communism because I 'questioned' a ban. It wasn't my own ban, it was a ban on someone who made a joke about Libertarians loving Theresa May in a g string. They got banned for "sexism". I put questioned in quotations because all I asked was how thesub got worse. The mods saw that as defending sexism. I also got banned in /r/LSC because I said the cost of ambulance was "retarded". Reddit is just full of libs and especially the more popular it gets.

Kill yourself faggot XDD

This is your mind on ideology

They're fucking awful and filled with liberals. Only the leftcom subreddits are tolerable, and even those are just 90% condescending memes and maybe 10 people who have actually read Marx.

this is why you fail

...

Tangentially related, but we really should be posting on reddit. Not "hey come to leftypol my dudes" but pointing out ideology in general subs and supporting other leftist posters. There are a few dedicated posters there even in lion's den reactionary subs fighting the good fight and talking about actual real deal Socialism, unlike those worthless libcucks on the major "leftist" subs.

It doesn't fucking matter faggot that's where the people are and if you just abandon it to Porky bots and shills then it just becomes a completely unmitigated propaganda trough. Message board guerilla war now. Make way for revolutionary shitposting.

Why arent there people infiltrating them and banning those mods?

Probably because in general what happens is one of two things:
A) newcomers arrive and quickly get banned and write off the sub, if not socialism altogether
B) newcomers arrive and since the mods punish everyone they think "deserves it" they see no problem

...

Evangelion is anti-utopian and super conservative.

The leftcom problem is going to get worse

Gate is extremely right wing. The anime is heavily toned down. The manga denies japanese warcrimes and paints everybody except the japanese as savages. They dont think slavery and tortured sex slaves are a big deal until they find one japanese girl who was captured.

I never liked Reddit as a site so I'm not an expert on it, but isn't it a site where anyone can create their own subreddit? And you people always talk about how overbearing and absurd mods of leftist subreddits are, right? So those of you who love Reddit, why not create your own leftist subreddit and prevent the faggots from infiltrating and taking it over by preemptively banning them? Just ban everyone who moderates every major leftist subreddits, all the local popular users who support their policies, and start advertising your subreddit as the alternative to the LARPing liberal shitholes?

It takes a more nuanced approach that is more akin to reality where peer pressure, propaganda and fear can make people do things they otherwise would never want to do.

Just because the anime doesnt portray all the soldiers as the devil incarnate like american movies do, doesnt mean it isnt explicitly against the actions shown.

How is it conservative?

Shinji chooses to preserve the status quo over the utopia.

He wants to preserve the traditional state of humanity.

This will mean more leftcoms. They only became big after the Reddit influx. Bringing with them their Reddit arrogance "why have only leftcoms ackshually read Marx" posts posted with a leftcom flag kinda BS

Those episodes about "muh evil journalists who want to make our benevolent army look bad" made my blood boil. I don't understand how that crap got an anime, altough in japan there is a very radical right wing movement who would probably enjoy it.

Gate is fucking hilarious in how blatant it is in being propaganda. I thought it was pretty bad most if the way through, but the earthquake part was retard funny. "LUL WE'RE JAPS WE GET EARTHQUAKES ALL THE TIME WE'RE NOT SCARED"

Anime is considered right-wing for many reasons:
- it shills for traditionalism
- it shills for natalism
- it employs classical european and shinto/buddhism symbolist
- it shills for spiritualist/enlightenment over materialist

...

Those are reactionary and right wing elements.

Like jesus christ, Shinto was a state mandate religion.

please do the world a favor and kys

Natalism is a right wing sentiment, it benefits both the fascism and the liberal bourgeois.

It probably got an anime the same way all the American military propaganda gets made: the military paid for it.

If you're going to be against anime, at least be it for the right reasons. Anime is capitalism garbage designed to sell video games and toys among other useless shit. It doesn't have good plots, it doesn't have good character development, it's always the same thing and South Park has pointed out how animes are always the same thing over two episodes which are actually very well put together with very constructive criticism over this "artistic" medium.

If you're going to attack anime anime watchers because it's pedophilia, then it's because you are a sick person that gets the dick twitching when seeing anime in the first place. It's like those republicans who hate fags but then eventually get caught sucking fat cocks.

Also, it only shills for WHITE natalism i.e. asian with asian or asian with white, never black with asian, that's porn territory.

How is natalism right wing? Why is anti-natalism left wing?
How is anime even natalist?
Why is using cultural symbolism reactionary?

If they're still on reddit at this point they probably think we're all brocialist manarchist nazbol Asserists or some shit. No way we'll have as big of an influx as with the catgirl/wolff drama, if any.

you got to be really fucked up asocial asshole to go on a crusade and start banning something as joyful as anime

Both at the same time?

The left wing is neutral on natalism, leftists have a choice to breed or not, because breeding and children aren't important.

The right and liberal want children either as spooky continuing muh bloodline or more proles for muh factory.

It almost always have the main couple hooks up, and with children in the epilogue and the sequel.
Because reactionarism is about nostalgia over past achievements, symbols, cultures, preferring them over the present. Employing long outdated classical european and shinto symbols are exactly that.

Yes, buddhism.

One character can literally get better as soon as his mind gets cleared off though, or through the power of friendship/will.

Material condition be damned.

There are several leftist subs run by people from leftypol. When we tried to make r/leftypol the site's admins immediately shut it down.

There's a very real possibility that the leftist subs on reddit are a psyop.

Get a load of this guy

So a normal relationship?

You do know that the majority of people find a partner and have kids, right? And that's what they want to do too.

Thats like saying a medium is reactionairy because the majority of the characters in it arent gay or transgender. The majority of people are straight, find a partner and have kids.

Oh fuck off. Is world of warcraft also reactionairy because its set in a medieval fantasy land?

You sound like a stuck up bitch who doesnt like fun and hates everything.

Bet you think listening to folk music is reactionairy too, or calling your daughter "princess".


How the fuck is spritualism and enlightenment compatable? Enlightenment is explicitly scientific and secular.

Considering all anime as anything is just retarded. It's not even a genre, it's a fucking medium.

Romance plot with children is inherently natalism i.e. right wing.

You don't have to have kid in a romance you know, you know?

Actually, birthrates are plummeting worldwide in 1st world country and in Japan, they aren't having kids no more.
That too can be a point, after all, gay and trans people exist, why can't they be in anime?
WoW modifies itself after Tolkien, who is an anarcho-monarchist, so it's definitely reactionary.
I call right wing thing right wing, I enjoy a lot of right wing media.
Folk music is almost always right wing and reactionary too, look at the South.
You don't know enlightenment in Buddhism?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enlightenment_in_Buddhism

I'm just calling the contents of said medium.

The majority of books are leftist.

???

I think so, all these fantasy stories always operate within a feudalist monarchy. It's called fantasy yet their MoP is always rooted in reality. How come their MoP can't be FALC.
Another user awhile ago on how the new O.K K.O. cartoon featured a world of superhero abut still had capitalism.

All medieval MMO's are anarchistic, you dont need to pay the king for shit, you dont need to pay part of what you make, theres no property ownership and everybody can use them.
There isnt even absentee property. At most you have a few players who make money by being a merchant.

Because then it wouldnt be a game where you work your way up to get new gear.

You people are the worst. No matter how socialist are you, you will go to gulag.

...

user, just because you want to marry your waifu and have children with her doesn't make the whole medium right-wing.

Modern anime literally lives to sell shit to alienated otaku, be light novels, manga or BDs.

Fuck, I just lost it. Great edit.

no, it is just masochistic
suffering is a part of life blah blah
lets repeat all this circus all over again
the attitude of a slave

maximum hehe

You have to go back.

This is, sadly, correct.


Elaborate.

It kinda does because that's a natalist i.e. right wing position. From a left wing point of view, the idea of having children is not important. While this is a big deal in anime.
They do so because otaku literally worship fictional characters.

Should be for this

Explain private server and MMO with fee & internet fee, or how even in free MMO, you have to pay real cash in order to get uber items.
Except ownership of items which are prevalent in all MMO.

That is a super conservative attitude though.

Conservative realizes the bleakness of reality, yet they want to conserve it.

Natalism is a right wing position and Tolkien is an anarcho-monarchist.

That's not what happened, at all. What happened was, some redditor came here & tried to shill to make r/leftypol/. Most people obviously told them to fuck off. Some agreed we should do it. Turns out the mod/creator of r/leftypol/ was a notorious shill, well known for captialist endeavors from reddit. It was an attempt to subvert & reddit can fuck right off with that nonsense. The entire point of Holla Forums is that it's not like reddit.

Bullshit.
You can count the number of cartoons that explicitly push a natalist message released recently with one hand, and more often that not they are actually funded by the government.

The amount of anime with happy end is a whole fucking lot, m8.

I can name Medaka Box out of the blue.

Are you fucking serious nigga

no they don't

Shinji is not a conservative, he is just a coward who afraid of change
dumb faggot chose to remain in the purgatory justifying it by "b-but muh suffering makes me who I am"

I'm serious.

Right wing authors are seriously lacking, unless you count the liberals as right wing.

But they do, conservatives are almost always poorer.
A conservative by definition distrusts and sometimes hates change, thus he wants to conserve things.
Also a pretty conservative-line of thinking, "sweat and hard work and bootstraps"…

I was talking about the internal economy of an MMO. You dont need to pay ingame currency to use a field, or ingame currency to do a bossraid. The fields and raids are free.

Boohoo

post anime to scare away the reddittors

So you are masochists basically ? If you want to maximize your suffering for the limited time you have on this planet, I have a great thing for you : gulags.

In black desert online they aren't "free", but I don't know if you really "pay" for them either. Doing certain missions earns you special XP, and every level gets you a point to distribute to various industries. A small garden plot to grow alchemy herbs for example might "cost" 10 points. Those points stay allotted for as long as you're using that garden, but return once you return the garden.

Just FYI

The internal economy is in direct parallel with real world economy, since the item economy employs cash-transferred into virtual economy.

They are private properties since you have thousands of them around yet only use a select few.

I'm talking about conservatives in general though, conservatives hate gulags because that's the state forcing them to do shit job for shit pay.

Do you realize the majority of books has been written before the left/right divide even existed ? It makes as much sense to say that most food is left-wing because it allows people to survive, or that most sex positions are right-wing because they are natalist.

You are an idiot.

The left right divide has existed ever since Roman era, which is a shit long time ago homie.

Only some sex positions are vagina focus…

No it didn't.


en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-wing_politics
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-wing_politics

source?

how is this equivalent to fetish for suffering?
this is just a standard argument against redistribution of wealth because it distorts incentives

Liberalism and Fascism have existed ever since Roman time, or before that, Greek time:
While fascism has existed as long since the first dictator of Rome.

Because hard work feels real, unlike handout. Literally the same reason for Shinji.

no, it is because meaningful and necessary work feels real
nobody wants to dig a hole so that someone later could fill it
this attitude is not limited to conservatives

How's that for irony?

Uh, you realize that's the same thoughts behind Shinji right?

Traditional humanity is painful, but it is meaningful and feels real.

Even the poorest american workers earn more than those in gulags, me think.

Ok, but the keyword here is
And it doesn't change the fact that saying "most books are left-wing" is extremely retarded. What is right-wing today would be considered as extremely leftist a few century ago. You can't just say a whole medium with millenias of history is left or right. Hell, putting a whole medium in one political category is stupid from the start, but doing that with books, the oldest of them all, which gave rise to capitalist and conservative theory among many other right-wing things, is hitting levels of retardation that shouldn't be possible.

...

The fact communism was further left than liberalism doesn't mean liberalism wasn't left.

The majority of books shill for freedom, equality and anti-authoritian, save for some select ones, these are all leftist values.

Yeah. Except they don't and actually just make things worse for everybody.

Jesus. Socio-economic systems are not just vague ideas about "rights."


You think wrong.

Liberalism and fascism aren't economic system, they are political and they are based on differences in civil rights and leadership.
At least the prisoners are properly fed, and prisoners are technically not even workers.

Liberalism was the left in the 18th century. It is now the center/right.
Those are vacuous platitudes supported by basically every political position.

Ok, sure, everyone who wrote books was a leftist. Plato, Aristotle, Hobbes, Machiavelli, Voltaire, Tocqueville, Nietzsche, Hitler, Evola, Alain de Benoist, Nick Land, Lauren Southern, they are all left-wing.
I'm fine with that. You have anime while we have books. Make sure you don't read one or you might get educated and end up shilling for socialism

That liberalism is the established system makes it not left.

Machiavelli and Voltaire were leftist in their respective times.

I hope you're sitting down, user, because this might come as a shock to you. We're not living in the 16th or 18th century anymore.

I suppose the mods of this board are still extremely jaded about having to clean up spergy 8/pol/ raid posts day after day.

In the early days of the 4chan to Holla Forums migration, this board was under constant attack. It still is, but now we just have more regulars and non-autists so the 8/pol/ cancer doesn't clog up discussions as much as it used to.

Liberalism was left then and it's still left now, only communists who think they are right wingers.
Not by fascist and monarchist, no.

How does it make it not left?

Democracy exists, right next to kingdoms and empire, and democracy is still left.

Like hell they aren't. Both are capitalist. Both reify private property. Both are imperialist. The difference between them is how they accomplish growth. The fascists use national expansion while the liberals ignore national boundaries.

Then neither were the kulaks in the gulags.

No it fucking doesn't.

So this is how communist argue, everything left to them is right wing.
The kulaks weren't the only ones in the gulags.

The greek city-states and such…

Ok, you want me to name every writer who shilled for antique slave societies, absolute monarchy, eugenism, fascism, Nazism, the Austrian school of economics, anarcho capitalism and so on, or what ?

Words have definitions. All your arguments involve pretending that words do not have any particular definitions.

Yeah, and murderers are not the only people in American prisons. Now go ahead. Tell me that they do not have political prisoners in prisons.

When words in the present tense like "exist" are used, that means that the action described is happening right now, not two-thousand, three-hundred years ago.

Fascists proclaim freedom for the volk from the corruption of modernity. Regardless there's still a lot of room between the left and monarchists. Are neocons and neoliberals left because they promote "freedom and democracy"?

The distinction between left and right came about during the French Revolution where members of the National Assembly literally split so that republicans sat on the left and royalists on the right. The fundamental quality of being on the left was that you wanted to fundamentally alter the existing socio-economic structure. Contemporary liberals have no desire to alter the status quo because they represent it which places them in the center/right.

Sure, go ahead.

Yes, words have definitions, and liberalism is a leftist position.
I don't see your point, at least everyone in American prisons are properly fed.
The context is that democracy exist along with kingdom and empire, proving that left/right divide was a classical one.

No

Modernity is freedom and liberalism, so it's freedom to go back to ancient, more authoritian societies.
Neocons are right-wingers and neo-liberals are left-wingers, see their position on abortion.
The first leftist movement was liberalism, which was for civil rights, and liberalism still fights for this.
Contemporary liberals also want a more equal society so they fight against racism, sexism and such, thus they are still leftists.
You communists just want everyone right of you to be not left.

What about the Democratic peoples republic of Korea?

It even says democratic in the name.

Democracy back then means the citizen can vote, not that everyone can vote.

This is the left position compared to a dictatorship.

Yea I guess its all a matter of perspective what counts as freedom.

Even today it still means that.

Google it. As Cenk would say

Oh really now? What are the defintions of "liberalism" and "leftist?" Protip: this guy got the definition of "leftist" correct.

Only because your head is up your ideology.

Yeah, you gotta keep them alive if you want to use them to make a profit.

The left/right dichtomy would not have been recognized before the French National Assmebly. There were democracies (not in Greece, which was a slave society but elsewhere), but they were a more ancient system than the slave societies and feudal monarchies that also existed at the time. Those democracies (exclusively in complex hunter-gatherer societies) were a part of the established order that was overthrown by the emerging slave societies.

Absolutely none of that is any kind of challenge to the established order. It is just vague ideals.

That's like saying the Résistants were conservatives for wishing to preserve the French democratic-republican status quo over the totalitarian utopia of Nazi rule.

They were both capitalists anyway.

This is what happens when your knowledge of politics is formulated by memes. Neocons and neoliberals are not mutually exclusive. Neoconservativism is almost exclusively concerned with foreign policy. Neocons take a wide variety of social positions and the only thing that really unites them is their love of imperialism with a nice coat of paint. Neoliberalism on the hand is an economic policy which seeks to privatize and globalize all markets while pushing for austerity measures and deregulation. These two positions are perfectly compatible. For instance Hillary Clinton is a necon and a neolib.
You keep missing the point, dude. They are trying to accomplish that within the boundaries of our current socio-economic system which, again, puts them in the center at best.

Liberalism is a movement for equality, leftism is a movement that defies tradition, considering liberalism never stops until they reach equality, they are a lefitst position.
Which is what?
So I guess it's a more humane system than just using them until they starve and die?
I'm saying it was established ever since Greco-roman era, with the divided democracy vs kingdom/empire/dictatorship at the time.
The greeks were the first to practice democracy.
Proof?

Not completely true. There were a lot of communists in the resistence, but they did not want a return of the old liberalism.

The same way a liberal will say to a communist that a class war is also a vague idea. Come on, get better talking points.

It's true, in that logic, the resistance was reactionary, the same for De Gaulle, who wanted France for frenchmen.
How exactly?
Neocons and neolibs have mostly the same policies but differ on certain points, neocons pretend they care about gun rights and pretend they are good christians, neolibs do not, the end. Hillary is a huge ass neolib.
Except they want to further make the state pay for more and advancing into welfare capitalism, which is not the same as classical industrial capitalism.

So these particular resistance were revolutionary.

Shinji on the other hand is different.

He wants to go back, not to go forward.

At this point I'm sure that this reddit-phobia is a Holla Forums strategy, similar to what we do when we call their pseudointellectuals "e-celebs".
If redditors come here it will be irrelevant, for what matters is the content of everyone's posts.
These guy are just trying to disrupt the regular flowing of this board by implying that it is your duty to spot a mass of imaginary redditors who are currently pestering our boards. Basicalky it turns a board for discussion into a idpol hell.

So OP… could you go back to your board, pretty please?

Wearing a yukata to a cultural festival is as "traditional" as setting up a Christmas tree, as in: people don't care much about the history or philosophy behind it and do it mostly because it's associated with having fun and warm 'n' fuzzies.
Anyway, traditionalism is a political-cultural ideology — it doesn't mean just "having traditions".

I'm not sure how; and if it does, it sure as hell isn't working.

Exoticist regalia doesn't qualify as symbolism. The creator of Evangelion himself admitted that the Christian "symbolism" in Evangelion was mostly about looking cool.

Because that's the dominant religious symbol system in Japan. Mainstream Western cinema is full to the brim with overdone Christian symbolism.

Like any fantasy fiction hoping to provide a temporary respite from a disenchanted world.

Conservatives never actually pushed for the conservation of anything except monarchy two centuries ago.

No.

No, it wasn't. That's not what that word means.

Bullshit. No system is defined by a vague set of ideals that can be used to support any position.

Traditions like an ostensibly millennia-old set of ideals layered over the same mode of production that has been dominant for centuries?

Read Zizek.

In so far as leaving people trapped for life in a building where they get repeatedly beaten and raped by insane, violent men is more human than dying, sure.

Which is obvious bullshit, because the left-right dichtomy is a concept that was created in 1789.

Hell no. All hunter-gatherer tribes utilize an egalitarian system just as theyhave since man started walking upright. The more complex societies in places like New Guinea, the Yucatan, and the Northern Pacific Coast of North America established democratic governing bodies. The Greeks were not even democratic. The Athenians utilized a per capita voting system that applied only to certain individuals within the city, but calling that a democracy is an absurd stretch of the word.


Not with an intellectual honesty he will not. Class and class conflict are clearly defined.

Equality
Greeks did democracy
Left-right is about social issues
Liberalism is a movement

Right. They are the same exact thing except that one side likes to pretend not to be assholes about certain things.

The welfare state only ever emerges in response to a crisis which threatens the stability of the system. It invariably evaporates along with the crisis. Both are merely cyclical stages of the same system.

The main reason why there aren't any leftist animes is the same as why there aren't any leftist video game: The medium as we know it today formed largely after the '80s, an era in which political radicalism has lost its legitimacy, appeal and representatives.

communism isn't about mindlessly 'going forward' and rejecting all 'spooks' that get in the way of fully automated atomised consumer hedonism, but about realising the true community being of humanity.

/thread
Seriously, who here gives a shit about reddit drama, anyway?

Into the trash etc.


To be fair, Catgirl drama was fun.

...

How many newfafs are here?
and why are you not reading a book.
Read a fucking book.
Holla Forums is about books, unlike Holla Forums.

Lol but we don't do that as we aren't fascists and hate power-structures by nature.
Were you not here during the pedo-boards dominating? We had the keys to 8ch and everybody fucking knew it till hotwheels got mega-cucked and threatened/paid-off.
We never banned anybody, hell, go to /younglove/ and make a shitpost, you won't be banned probably, just deleted if it's mega-shit and has no argument even attempted.


This tbh
Reddit is mostly garbage due to the normie population, but that doesn't mean those normie users are inherently trash or all users are normies.

The strongest communities have no boarders and no conflicts internally, and if there are conflicts they're nothing hugely dividing on the main goals.

We claim victory when anyone sucker punches a trump supporter tbh

This propaganda only looks good if you're already a tankie, tbh

>implying I'm not pedo

Fucking thank you.
The retarded "Anime is right wing!" shit from Holla Forums autists is almost on the same level as "EVERYTHING IS NAZBOL"
except they're fucking serious about it. it boils down to

Welcome the redditors and convert them. Take the leftist SJWs, remove the SJW, and they can be allies.

i watched this and it sucked. they kept interrupting the plot and anime with random interviews with people who fought in the war and it had nothing to do with the actual film. Like the germans are using black magic to raise an ancient ghost solder from the dead and shit and then they cut randomly to some old man talking in russian about what it was like to be in a trench or something. ruined the movie.

I miss the "Ignore X Threads" images, what the fuck happened.

Tell them this and see how they react.

...

lmao

Lying to get laid is toxic masculinity, bud.

How does this contradict socialism? Work being just because the workers own the means of production, doesn't mean we don't need people to work.

...

What the fuck?

Socialism is about the means of production. Anything else you want to add to that is your own made up gibberish.

Abolishing private property title =/= LOL I CAN COME INTO THE HOUSE YOU LIVE IN AND TAKE YOUR STUFF BECAUSE IT ISN'T LITERALLY IN YOUR HANDS RIGHT NOW!

Your version of this is like some ancap strawman.

Watching anime and playing games is fine but identifying as a "gamer" is total nonsense and should be ridiculed.

...

Ironic humor does not work when you constantly purge people for inane reasons non-ironically.

Gamers are the true enemy of 21st century socialism.

One of the most iconic games of all time was invented in the soviet union

youtube.com/watch?v=lGkyL_MF-lw

yeah sure those Gamers are sure so Fascist in disguise because they criticize our Rainbow Hair Allies,
best part everyone who names themselves after the activity they are doing is a Nazi in disguise, makes perfect sense
Bakers are Nazis because they bake too many cakes for example

Anyone that identifies as a "Gamer" though is spooked trash.

It's literally a marketing identitarian trick developed in the 80s and 90s to basically make kids pledge themselves to Corporations. Watch Consuming Kids and Generation Like.

On anime, I've been watching anime since the early 90s, and it's pretty easy to say the vast majority of political themes in anime are right wing. Political anime almost always has this ultra-nationalist "We were great before fucking America bombed us for no reason" strain through it, or basically makes arguments for a Fascist technocracy.

There are the notable exceptions, Generally, the older anime creators (guys now in their 60s, 70s, 80s) tend to be quite left wing but go read about the history of Toei and how Ghibli was founded for example as to why this happened. Radical left wing Feminists were ironically also involved in the creation of Comiket through Shojou groups. But Anime political themes over time have gotten pretty fucking right wing and nationalist.

Now that the BO on Holla Forums was replaced, expect to see a similar drift here. It starts with anti-kurdishness, it will continue.

since when?

nah

It's conspiratorial, but it's broadly suspected by most Holla Forums mods. They had, recently, zero communication with BO, and BO is only ever active at unusual hours of the morning, which doesn't make much sense for their supposed time zone. you can see a leftypol mod discussing this in /rojava/. BO was also formerly a Rojava supporter, for what that's worth.

...

Fuck off. It's just a signifier of a hobby. It's like calling yourself a petrolhead if you like cars or a railfan if you like trains.

Something from the future that we don't have yet. If we had a revolution tomorrow, you'd have to fucking work. Unless you want to wait until fully automated to start revolution, whenever that is.

Not so fast Boomer-kun…
Are you attempting to hand somebody a pair of boot straps?

...

...

Anime is liberal as fuck you imbecile (and leftist sometimes).

Lets hope they go to 8ch.pl
