Yeah, obviously it would be great to have my cake and eat it too, but in my opinion it is better to have decent graphics but spend the lion's share of budget on other things than to have amazing state of the art graphics and skimp on other shit.

I've seen a bunch of pro Jewish billboards pop up in my area over the past several months. Stuff like "50% of all hate crimes are committed against jews" and other similar shit.

Japan already has a fair amount of delicious kebab shops in my experience. Run by immigrants as it is though so already lost that one...

Ahh yes, young brainwashed Japanese woman says Japan has things to gain from muh diversity and its suddenly case closed and anyone who says otherwise is an ignorant nazi gaijin bigot.

You see this shit all the time in circles related to Japanese shit. People are debating something and the second someone comes in with the opinion of a Japanese person they act like it is the word of God that can't be disputed, despite it being directly at odds with what countless other Japanese people say.

Economics is subtractive, because resources are finite, if in some cases expandable.

And, in the context of this discussion, the lion's share of the resources needed to sustain a life are indeed expandable unless you live in some shithole in Africa or somewhere that the local environment is not suitable to sustain the number of people living there.

It's just a statistical fact. Most people are useless eaters. 90% of more of people on this continent do nothing but consume in their lifetimes.

Sure, way less people are needed to produce food and other things. I would agree that a huge portion of people are useless drains on society. The part that isn't fact is just how widely and broadly you are casting that net.

Because by having three children he'd have done the same in any other profession to boot, while contributing more positively.

I would agree that having children of one's own, especially if one is fit to be a good parent, is a fast track to being a positive contributor. But we aren't talking about contributing "more positively" or "the most positively," you made a sweeping statement about how one couldn't contribute a net positive at all unless they were a genius. Perhaps pedantic, but that is what I was taking issue with.

Teachers are especially of negative economic value(almost as much as office workers), their positive contributions largely theoretical while their profession on the whole constantly claims themselves indespensible.

I agree that public school systems and the vast majority of educational institutions are complete dogshit and net negatives overall. But that doesn't preclude there from being good individuals within those institutions that are net positives. Even looking back on my 17 years in that bullshit, there were some gems sprinkled among the shit that shined despite the shitty system they worked in.

Regarding the collapse of clown world, it depends how exactly it all goes down. If it is a true collapse of grand proportions, the death and suffering is going to be widespread among the useful and the useless alike during the initial shock. Over time there would be a re-orienting of society to be much more meritocratic, and surely the truly useful would be more likely to survive this as you say.

But "usefulness" in a hand to mouth society that is just trying to survive is a much more rigid thing than it is in a society with much excess like the current clown world.

For example, an electrical engineer that excels at his job but works at a company that produces gadgets that ultimately are not necessary might be a net negative in the holistic and transcendental sense in terms of survival. But in a situation where the societal fat is greatly trimmed down, one could imagine them potentially turning around to use their skills to support something much more close to fundamental necessities like power infrastructure or agricultural equipment. But just because they aren't doing that now, doesn't make them useless or a net negative provided whichever devices they have a hand in making are positive and not socially destructive.

This seems like a futile endeavor because the concept itself is self evident even when speaking generally, but I'll humor you.

Thinking of a friend of mine who is giga based and is a teacher. Given that he works amongst commie scum, if even a few of the thousands of students he teaches over his career is positively influenced, assuming the others aren't influenced negatively, then he's done his part.

Afterwards we can discuss the sheer amount of resources that a single human life costs over their lifetime

Spoken like a commie. Resources that, for the intents and purposes of this discussion, are not finite and of which more can be produced.

If you can't see how there are plenty of other ways to be a net positive for society, I'm not sure how to get it through to you. People who produce food, build things, maintain critical infrastructures of a whole host of industries, the list goes on.

Sure, there are plenty of useless paper pushing jobs that probably shouldn't exist and don't really contribute much. But the notion that you have to be a super genius to contribute positively is bizarre, and that's coming from someone who is very adamant that people should strive to have kids despite the societal deck being steeply stacked against men.

If you aren't having children, the only way you're contributing to society is if you're a Tesla level genius inventor.

Okay, it seems we broadly agree on a lot here but this is a bit ridiculous. I want kids very badly and I'm young enough that realistically I will probably have them down the line, but the notion that you have to be Newton level to contribute to society is retarded. Be a good influence in your community, for your nieces, nephews, cousins, etc. and that is absolutely a positive contribution to society.

I wouldn't say that's necessarily the implication they are trying to make. Moreso they seem to be clapping back at someone trotting out the "my grandfather liberated the camps and saw the horrors" shtick. I think it's perfectly reasonable to point out if a significant portion of that is due to logistic failures caused by war.

In general, I despise when leftoids, or anyone really, creates a term that labels a position on an issue and simply use that term to stifle any and all discussion on the issue by merely using the label as an argument itself. "Holocaust denier" "Anti-vaxxer" Hell, even "Flat Earther." Pure NPC useful idiot behavior.

You know how many times I've seen Edward from Twilight? Precisely zero because I never watched the movie. It's that simple.

And I guarantee if I did see it I would think nothing of it because I'm not a little bitch.

It's almost like women enjoy seeing gigachad men while men enjoy seeing cute and helpless girls with skimpy clothes. What a revelation. I know you're a troll but you can do better.

Let's hope its just a bunch of Filipinos. Not holding my breath but there are ways to go about that without self destructing themselves.

Redo of Healer

I feel personally attacked.

In all seriousness though, we need to do whatever we can from across the pond to ensure these wokeoids don't destroy anime.

Also stop with the 'animated child porn' shit, it ain't CP because they're not children it's literally drawings

Not to say hardcore loli hentai doesn't exist, but you know theres a 99% chance she's conflating normal, milquetoast anime with that as radfems tend to do. "The women aren't ugly and one of the characters is in high school so it's CP."

She goes on to compare anime to "baby food," so it really comes off like she's going out of her way to be edgy and say outlandish shit for attention.

It's clear she knows nothing about Japan either. She thinks the average person is a hardcore otaku because it's all she knows of the place from being on the internet too much.

Politics aside, and I know it's hard to separate them out because they so heavily correlate with these negative personality traits, she is an amazingly insufferable narcissistic bitch.

I see, thanks for the clarification. I had a lot of fun during my years of Kancolle, but part of me wishes Azur Lane was around when I had all of that time on my hands. Sounds like the devs are pretty based and I just don't have the time to justify jumping into it.

Did I misunderstand? It seems they were going to release her as a loli but stopped due to pushback? So isn't that a win?

Personally I'm not anti loli but as someone who played a lot of Kancolle back in the day, they are more suited for smaller ships like destroyers as you said. And gotta make her match her sisters in her class somehow.

They would undoubtedly either pretend to fail to see the link between those things or just go off the rails screeching about how you're an extremist gamergater.
