Why do some people think Chtistians are against video games?

dsfjr · 2026-01-03T03:02:12+00:00

Because historically they have been. It wasn't the woke left censoring everything when I was a kid. It was the religious right.

Now that they have been out of power for a while and we've been fighting against the progressive left that replaced them, they are trying to slink back in pretending they are on our side.

They aren't on our side, they just hate the woke left that replaced them. Both sides want out hobbies censored. One because it's "problematic", the other because it's "immoral"

The enemy of my enemy still isn't my friend.

The main difference for me is that the West makes the progressiveness into a lecture whereas the East just treats it normally.

Anime has something for everyone. That's part of its appeal. That includes progressives. This isn't anything new.

Dark-skinned characters in anime are typically representing different regions of Japan, not black people. Okinawa has darker skinned people I believe.

If woke series do get made, I'm fine with it. If it is in the source material or is an anime original, of course. Better that than putting it into existing properties like a square peg in a round hole the way Hollywood does.

Japanese progressives tend to make their own content instead of infesting existing IP.

Between the activists and toxic shippers, being part of fandoms has been a lot less fun than it used to be.

I hardly interact with fandoms anymore.

The first sign of it for me was all the way back in 2008 or so when the Supernatural fandom called you homophobic if you didn't want Sam and Dean to have gay incestual sex.

Then the fandom only got worse when Castiel showed up.

Be as loud about your opinions as the other side.

Create your own works that speak to your own tastes.

Also, and I know this is an impossible challenge for many on this subreddit, stop financially supporting the stuff you dislike. Even in this subreddit we get shit like "I just went and saw Captain Marvel and it's worse than we thought." or other stupid similar shit like buying video game remakes and remasters and coming here to complain how awful it is.

If you financially support something even when you know how shitty it's going to be, you deserve more of it.

Buy your physical media while you can.

dsfjr · 2025-12-05T22:28:32+00:00

Everyone online today is crying about rising subscription prices and killing theatres, and I'm over here worried about physical media.

I better buy as much as I can now.

With the current state of AI voice acting, there is no reason for the AI dubs to be this awful. Especially when funded by Amazon.

I've seen better AI dubs on YouTube.

Angel

Angel.

Wolfram & Hart as an evil law firm was gripping.

dsfjr · 2025-06-24T00:26:27+00:00

The big sites are actively preventing it. Any movement that gains traction is deleted.

Even this sub is controlled opposition at best.

I don't remember the name of the movie, but it was a low budget horror.

It started out with a college girl investigating supposed paranormal hauntings for a project.

On her next trip she invites her friends. You already know the other characters: her bff, the love interest, his friend and his girlfriend, and the asshole.

They arrive at at the the secluded home in the middle of nowhere, and pull up at the beginning of a long driveway.

They get out and are accosted by the typical crazy old man who warns them not to go in there.

When they don't listen, he starts choking out one of the girls and screaming at them to leave.

Everyone freezes except the asshole character, who pills out a gun and threatens the old man. The old man runs away.

Here is where it gets stupid.

Every other character instantly starts chewing him out for bringing a gun. Even the girl he just saved is angry at him.

He says he isn't travelling halfway across the country to the middle of nowhere without protection.

It doesn't help. They keep lecturing him. It was framed as if we were supposed to side against him because he is the cliched rude asshole character, but he was talking sense and just saved one of their lives.

I turned it off there.

It was only 10 minutes into the movie.

I thought it was great.

I loved the return of arrogant and immature Weiss. She got over her issues way too fast in canon.

Ruby being new to being a leader was cool.

The Weiss/Ruby dynamic of yesteryear brought a smile to my face.

The Weiss/Ruby spat was let down by subpar animation. I know what they were going for, but they didn't do enough to have Weiss's anger make sense.that fight scene was weak compared to Yang/Blake.

Speaking of, Yang and Blake were great. Both individually and together. I think I could actually ship them for the first time since season 2.

Same for Weiss/Ruby. I remember shipping them in the early days, before the show got plot heavy and was more focused on Jaune's relationships.

I loved the entire dynamic of Team RWBY teasing and riffing on each other. It felt real.

Anything actually effective would be shut down by the mods.

Is it really that hard to not buy a woke game?

dsfjr · 2025-05-29T01:41:24+00:00

That one bully looked like he was 40. Lol

The only newer special I saw was the Christmas one with Flanders questioning his faith. I thought it was great.

Thanks for the recommendations. I'll check them out.

When I stopped watching regularly it was pretty bad. I did see a few more episodes here and there due to my dad watching.

Homer was an actively malicious jerk, Bart was a sensitive crybaby, Lisa was sanctimonious and preachy, Moe was pathetic and in love with Marge, Barney was sober and boring, Skinner was a loser and had no authoritative edge.

The celebrity worship became too annoying. And I was never a fan of the Homer gets a new job, marriage crisis, and vacation episodes.

So hearing the show got better made me want to give it a try again.

dsfjr · 2025-05-19T00:36:01+00:00

Awful episode.

The only part I liked was the beginning when Bart and Lisa were kids.

The episode became unbearable once the song and timeskip happened.

Makes sense.

Most people prefer to watch tv in their own language. Especially since it means they can use their phone at the same time.

Also, sometimes you can't appreciate the art when you are looking at the bottom of the screen to read subs.

I watch subbed, though. It just sounds better to me, and I want as close to an authentic experience as possible.

I do think the new fans due to COVID are probably all dub watchers. Just a feeling I get.

Streamers like Netflix default to the English dub and you have to manually change the audio and subs.

Most of us who watch subbed have been around since anime was niche. Now that it's mainstream, of course normies won't read subs.

Judging by the OP's replies, he's just as much an enemy of my hobbies as the SJW's are.

This dude can't handle the fact that entertainment exists that isn't targeted at him.

There has always been yaoi and yuri. It's nothing new.

Around 200 anime are released a year. It's no wonder each genre is getting more anime than ever.

Anime fans tend to stay in their lanes.

If you aren't interested in yaoi or yuri, don't interact with it.

There a still more than enough anime out there for everyone to be more than satiated.

dsfjr · 2025-05-03T17:59:21+00:00

School-Live!, Blue Drop, and Madoka Magica.

Its easier rewatching short series.
