Many marvel comics aren't made to please a consumer audience anymore. they used to be, then liberal elites saw the cultural power of comics thanks to the advent of the MCU, so they rushed in to take over the industry and pervert it into a libtard propaganda machine.
None of these "woke" comics sell well. They just exist because these companies either truly want to push woke propaganda, or they at least want to make it look like they are so they can get DEIbuxx from Soros & also keep the trannies on twitter off their backs.
This is the natural and inevitable result of a war where only 1 side of fighting. The Left is fighting a war for the culture, and has been fighting balls-out for over a decade now. The Right, by contrast, got caught sleeping and is just now starting to wake up to the very real consequences of ceding the battlefield to the much-better-organized Left. The Right needs to radicalize. It needs shock troopers of its own. It needs to fight on every battlefield and force them all into contested status.
My local comic book store has a tiny new release section because most of their sales are from back issue comics, tabletop, and the manga section keeps growing
I mean, even for the Right that is all it would take. Blaine Pardoe is an open Right-Winger and he isnt really putting that into his newest book. Just a "Inspired by Tom Clancy" story of mech pilots defending the Earth from Aliens, which he is designing as a counter to Battletech (which he was kicked out of).
What we really need is to get past the point where you have all of these Right-Wing people who still think of things like comics and video games as "for children/childish."
Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.

Some of the right wing has understood that for close to a hundred years.
It's amazing just how many great quotes that man has:
“We all want progress. But progress means getting nearer to the place where you want to be. And if you have taken a wrong turning then to go forward does not get you any nearer. If you are on the wrong road progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road and in that case the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive man. There is nothing progressive about being pig-headed and refusing to admit a mistake. And I think if you look at the present state of the world it's pretty plain that humanity has been making some big mistake. We're on the wrong road. And if that is so we must go back. Going back is the quickest way on.”
And of course his quote on tyranny:
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be "cured" against one's will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.”
his previous latest book series is about the Marxists taking over America and based brown immigrants helping to restore the republic after being victims of the system themselves. what a boomercon.
Look at alot of popular manga and you see a screaming horde of blatant passion projects that could only be manifested through the power of god, anime, and industrial-strength autism.
A Young Bride's Tale? Blame? Things like that could never be done in America outside of niche indie projects, and even then exposure would be low(and they sure as hell wouldn't last as long).
And it's not like anime is immune to that, either. Hell, I just saw a pilot for an anime movie based around a japanese TTRPG module that combines mountain climbing with Lovecraft's The Mountain of Madness with such attention to detail that it had actual mountain climbers commenting on it.
You're not really going to find stuff like that in the west.
The Right has been systematically de-organized over the past 75 years, while the Left has been steadily organizing. At this point it's like trying to stop a hurricane. I think that the smarter thing for Righties to do is hunker down and take the Benedict Option. The Left won, but we know how this will end for them. They can't create, they can only criticize, overthrow and dismantle. They can't wield power responsibly and they certainly can't rule. They'll destroy themselves far more effectively than we ever could.
We have to let the Weak Men create the Bad Times. Only then will the Strong Men find their opening. I don't think there are any shortcuts. All of this energy that righties are putting into fighting this culture war is just a losing effort to slow down this inevitable cycle of history. If anything we want it to accelerate so the Bad Times will get here already. Only when Lefty's organization is collapsing will Righty begin to organize.
I don't think doomerism and defeatism is the answer.
You're never going to convince the Right to join you in giving up, so all your philosophy does is give you an excuse to not join in the fight. Seems cowardly to me tbh.
Every attempt we make to organize is thwarted or infiltrated in some way. We try to democratically elect someone who at least doesn't hate us and he's rejected by the system. Right now, fighting that system directly is foolish. It does need to be destroyed, but I'm saying that the best way to accomplish that goal is to encourage it to destroy itself We should be finding ways to sabotage and subvert it on every level. The time for direct confrontation will be when the system has been weakened, not while it's at its peak.
The Freedom Fighter's Manual"The Freedom Fighter's Manual is the title of a fifteen-page propaganda booklet that was manufactured by the United States Central Intelligence Agency and airdropped over Nicaragua in 1983, with the stated goal of providing a "Practical guide to liberating Nicaragua from oppression and misery by paralyzing the military-industrial complex of the traitorous marxist state". The manual explains several methods by which the average citizen could cause civil disorder. The airdrops began after the Sandinista National Liberation Front, which had overthrown the former Nicaraguan leader, Anastasio Somoza in 1979, and had ties to the Soviet Union and Cuba, began to fund a similar revolutionary group in El Salvador. A Contra fighter gave the manual to a U.S. reporter in Honduras in 1984."
The left divides and destroys. The right creates and corrupts. Shits broken right now. It's time to start creating. Start backing more indies across the board. Is what I've been doing. Back indies and shit on leftist slurry.

Japs be like "we just want to make money".
