I remember when Trump was in office. One of my lefty/socialist friends on Facebook wasn't shy about letting his feelings be known on Black People who were voting for Trump and how they were lower than dogs for doing so.
It really does expose just how vitriolic and racist they really are when push comes to shove. They parade around minorities on a leash like a lap dog, but the moment the dog dares to have an opinion of its own, they turn and lash their pets.
It did sort of open my eyes even further as to how full of shit they are. They don't care about minorities. They only care if the minority in question shares their views. If the minority dares to have an opinion of their own then they show their true colors.
I thought Black Lives Mattered though?
Satire? Or really means it? (don't know this guy...don't have a Twitter account...not sure if satire or real.)
You know...I would give a shit, but hey, just last year they told me my body was not my responsibility when they fought for vaccine mandates being enforced on us all. Last year they told me my body was not my right. They told me their governments had the right of way to my body and that I should just be violated without question. Yet this year they want to tell me their body is their right and this is a crime against humanity.
I used to be pro choice kind of guy, I mean I always had a moral conflict about it but at the same time I didn't like the idea of the government telling someone what they could and couldn't do, but after last years fisaco? I just don't give a fuck anymore. You can't pick and choose as to when your body is suddenly your right.
Or in other words, to the hypocrites out there who told me my body was not my choice last year as they pushed for mandates but are suddenly up in arms over this: EAT SHIT!
In all seriousness, I do feel morally conflicted by abortion in general. On the one hand, it is indeed murder. On the other, I see some practicality in it being an option in certain circumstances. That's why I used to be a pro choice kind of guy. But this year? Sorry. They can eat shit for all I care. Because these same people told me last year to just sit back and enjoy the vaccine in spite of whether I wanted it or not. Why should I care about your "rights" when they didn't give a singular fuck about mine last year?
I mean, sure, tie the proven-by-court-of-law abuser to Gamergate. Which started because of a notable abuser who cheated on her boyfriend. Gee…can they connect the dots already. Do they have enough self awareness? Nope, clearly not.
Sure, lessons weren’t learned. Kotaku clearly didn’t learn shit here
Yeah, I get it. I've tried doing some scanlation stuff in my time so I understand as to why certain things get changed or where you need to take liberties.
But I frown upon people putting their own politics in the mouths of others and this is the perfect example of that. Your job should be to tell the story that keeps in best accordance with the artists original intent. Even if you disagree with that intent.
To me, it's kind of an insult to the original artist and their work.
Okay…in regards to that one about 奴ら
I mean Yatsura is basically just “they” or “those guys”
Yes, it can be derogatory. But it’s not “incel.”
I mean there is “urusai yatsura” which is those obnoxious people. But yatsura on its own is not that.
I studied Japanese for 8 years. I get that some translations need to take liberties with certain words that aren’t translatable. But I don’t get how you get from Yatsura to Incel without it being your own bias at play.
And they wonder why they’re criticised.
Also, I thought being gay wasn't a choice? I thought you were born gay? What if these girls weren't born gay? What if these girls grow up and realize they like the taste of hard cock? Funny how this works!
Sure, I believe if you're gay then you're gay. But I find it funny these girls are seemingly being programmed to be something they may find out for themselves to not even be later in life.
I mean, wonderful fucking parenting there <slow claps> Whatever happened to letting your kid find their own path in life. Sure, you are there to guide them and protect them the best you can but in the end, it's still up to them to find their own way in life.
I see shit like this and at this point, I think I'm ready for the Nuclear apocalypse. We deserve everything we get. Humanity needs to be wiped out.
I never got this. A translators job shouldn’t be changing it to appeal to a western sensibility. A translators job is simply to interpret the original artists intent in a different language.
Still, interesting read. I studied Japanese for 8 years and even tried my hand at some basic manga translating myself. I get that some things don’t play well going back to English as some things in the Japanese language don’t have English counterparts but yeah…your job shouldn’t be to change the vision. It should be simply to interpret what is being said as best you can replicate it.
Money grubbing whores gonna stick together.
They've already started with that shit. Every night I see the same ad about how we're going to be Zero Emissions in the next few years....
This country is fucked because we're full of fucking apathetic assholes who think "it'll be all right, mate; just vote for the other guy" without realizing what it is they're actually voting for.
Speaking as an Australian. This country is so fucked! Whelp, the sell out to China continues. The march towards globalism continues. At this point, I think the whole world is fucked and this is gonna happen no matter what.
There is nothing I detest more than the Fat Positive Crowd...and I say this as a FAT guy trying to lose weight. I can't stand these people. I mean, I can accept the fat guy or girl who has no issue with being overweight and doesn't give a damn what others think. At least they know what they are and don't try to blame everyone else for the way they are. But the fat positive crowd? They have no accountability for their own actions and just want to blame everyone else for their bullshit in life.
I'm gonna own up to something here. A few years back, I tried to ride Space Mountain at Disney LA but was turned away because I was too big to fit in the carriage. Not one of my proudest moments in life and sure, I was a little embarrassed and even a little ashamed of myself. But I didn't cry about it. I didn't blame Disney. I simply shrugged, blamed myself, felt that slab of shame and walked away.
Since starting this diet late last year, I'm down 15 kg and I do feel Fab-U-Lous for it....why? Because I took the damn initiative to own up to my bullshit in life and do something about it.
So fuck the fat positive crowd. I get it, it sucks being overweight. It sucks being obese. It's a vicious cycle when your mind isn't in a healthy place. Believe me, I know! I've battled serious depression through most of my adult life. But the only way you can get out of that vicious cycle is to own up to your bullshit and DO something about it.
So yeah, speaking as a fat guy? She gets no sympathy from me. At all. I really can't tell you how much I hate the fat positive movement.
If that was the first thing I saw getting off the plane then I think I'd turn right back around and board the next plane right back out....and I live in this stinking country.
Btw, Bamboozler, any plans to get the fuck out of here ASAP? I'm still thinking of doing it pretty soon.
I'm so glad I never went to University...I don't think I would have been able to handle it. Isn't that the point of University? To expand your horizons? To learn? To embrace viewpoints? Oh noes! The TWEEN book offends me because its author doesn't agree 100% with me...das homophobic! Quick, shut it down!
At this point, I think I got more real world experience working blue collar jobs than I ever would from University. Don't ever put these kids into a blue collar job, they wouldn't last two fucking minutes with the shit you'll hear from real people.
At this point, I just want to pull off their masks and cough in their faces for the hell of it.
The chopstick line killed me the most
"She's a beautiful oriental girl...she's not here for you to play with your chopstick!"
Yeah! You go girl :D
Yeah that was the best response I’ve seen so far
You say that, but the problem is there are still a lot of people in this country willingly cheering this on.
Un-fucking-believable. Fuck you, Sco Mo...Fuck the governments. Fuck the apathy of everyone in this country. Fuck this whole stinking rotting country from the inside out.
"I'm from the government and I'm here to help..." I believe the last time the Aborigines of this country were told that they had their children stolen.
I hate living in this stinking country right now...I really do. This country continues to prove itself to be a complete and utter embarrassment.
Pretty much. Pretty much.
yeah, I know that too. Trust me, I know that one. I got good at reading between the lines.
let me guess, you dared to have an opinion that wasn't the "correct" one? It really is kind of bullshit, ain't it. It's amazing how quickly you don't matter when you don't share their opinion. Kind of opened my eyes up even further as to how full of shit some people are in life.
