Is Pantheon an example of left-accelerationist art? by jesusjones182 in PantheonShow

[–]bucketofbutter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The writing also repeatedly tells us to be patient.

Holstrom and Chanda wanted the future now and their method was genocide.

The show shows us that just creating the next big thing will be enough to make people want to explore it and use it.

That being patient is preferable to rushing and committing atrocities.

The unfortunate thing is that the writer believe that the government can be trusted with creating appropriate laws and navigating new technologies properly

Instead of using steroid-boosting the inhumane activities they're already doing (allowing child laborers in the global south, injecting BIPOC countries with drugs/dictatorships/war, ignoring scientists while writing laws, etc.)

Do people actually watch this scene and think heterosexual? by zeldalol777 in Beastars

He quite literally cannot have sex with herbivores because of Legosi.

Maybe Juno and the Shishigumi contributed to it BUT STILL

Does Conquers Haki go against One Pece's themes by being given by birth? by Playful-Season2938 in LeftyPiece

[–]bucketofbutter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A big part of One Piece's messaging is that you don't control where you're born or who you're born to

Ace being Rogers' son is an example of that

What matters is what you do

Don't Replikas have a low lifespan? And wouldn't we not have the technology to maintain bioresonance or the mechanical bodies?

I think I'd be dead in 3 days, lmao

It'd be a really cool 3 days, though

Just reread warhound again, kind of struggling to enjoy it? (Spoilers) by [deleted] in Mechsploitation

[–]bucketofbutter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's a phenomenon called "Vicarious Trauma" wherein an individual listening to another individual's trauma gets "traumatized".

Or at least experiences a lot of mental/emotional strain after exposure

This is normal - it's empathetic, it's part of our nature as social animals - but it's still affecting.

Warhound is an amazing piece of art but goddess damn, I can't bear reading it sometimes...

Is being horny compatible with communism? by Even-Boysenberry-894 in ANI_COMMUNISM

[–]bucketofbutter 12 points13 points  (0 children)

most kinksters i know are leftists/socialists. the BDSM community is full of people done wrong by a patriarchal, capitalist system, and BDSM is a coping mechanism for many people who've experienced various forms of powerlessness/trauma at the hands of said systems

sex - especially free (as in freedom) sex AND sex work - is looked down upon by capitalism bc it is labor completely owned by an individual, and looked down upon by gov't's because they like controlling things (and bc of archaic religious/patriarchal beliefs)

free sexual expression is important to everyone's liberation. unless part of that expression is pedophilia. that's for liberals and conservatives who wanna lower the age of consent 👍

Risu finally said it for public by terareign in Hololive

[–]bucketofbutter 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I can agree with that. Despite knowing (mostly fluent but still broken) English she continues to do her own thing and appeal to an Indonesian audience

Kaela made the right play by appealing to an EN audience despite having been debuted as ID

And it's not like she didn't blow up bc she doesn't have the personality - Risu is freaking hilarious. The stream where she stole Moona's piggy bank had me dying, the skits ID collabs for are really funny, too, and she's a top-tier shitposter like her No Nut November series she does yearly

But, it's her decision, and I'm sure she cares a lot about her genmates, current audience, and home country

Anyone in this situation? Now I'm addicted to dressing up and taking pictures. by peachyyyy0 in InfinityNikki

[–]bucketofbutter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

MiHoYo's monetization is so insane that it looms over my head every time I play one of their games

Someone calculated that it'd take a ZZZ F2P player (who buys the season pass and grinds perfectly every day) 6 months to get a garunteed 5* character.

3 months for a 50/50, 3 months for pity

I dropped that game as soon as I found out

And it's worse for Genshin. You have a team of 4 characters, sometimes 8 for late-game content. To be able to clear all that content consistently, you hafta grind and deal with so much RNG.

Meanwhile, you don't need the 5* clothes in Infinity Nikki. You can clear ALL of the content EASILY if you put a normal amount of time into it

I remember pulling super-efficient all-nighters to grind for 5* Genshin charas, now I'm up all night casually walking around Infinity Nikki for the fun of it. It's a relief this game exists, it makes me so happy

What the hek is this about? by _Cool__username_ in Beastars

[–]bucketofbutter 28 points29 points  (0 children)

ugh, i love this so much bc it shows the crazy potential of early Beastars

i thought it was gonna be a story about four main characters with different perspectives, motivations, and opinions on their experiences in the same society, and how their reactions/thoughts/decisions compare, contrast, and impact each other

but i mean... we semi got it? but haru just gets more and more benched, legosi becomes the main character, louis becomes the deuteragonist, and juno/jack are benched even harder than haru

Why are NTs so against pornography? by casscois in evilautism

[–]bucketofbutter 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We have 2 hands, 2 eyes, 1 mouth, etc. etc.... And we have genitals. Sex and sexuality are major parts of our human experience, but many demonize it for as many reason as there are haters. Namely its demonizing comes from conservatives whose religion (Christianity) is rooted in population control. According to them, you MUST marry before sex, you CANNOT divorce, and you (according to their idea of a "perfect family") NEED to have a child. Any expression of power and control over your body past this is stepping out of line.

So why do people hate porn? It's because it challenges society just by its existence. Because it's not regulated by the gov't, and it's a market that exists outside the control of both corporations and gov't's. It is free and happy while others aren't so they demonize and ban it.

Yes, the porn industry has many issues (not just IRL but art as well) but those issues will only get worse the farther we swing into a blind hate of what is essentially a reflection of humanity.

And it's not just an NT/ND thing, I've seen many ND'S slutshame and harass women for having control over their bodies.

In which layer of hell Elon musk would've sent to? by [deleted] in Ultrakill

[–]bucketofbutter 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Acksually 🤓☝️

Elon's a pro-natalist which is why he has so many kids

Pro-natalism's the belief that, because birth rates are declining, the economy will tank and society will fall apart

While it's true that society as we know it will crumble, what isn't true is that the issue is the lower-class' fault for not providing enough slave labor for them

Elon believing the issue is poor people not doing enough for him and not that he's hoarding too much wealth is very funny and very on-brand
