From what I've seen, it's nothing but a mishmash of whatever is popular in the most popular games. It doesn't get more generic than that. It's only sold well because people are starved for a pokemon-like and the controversy's marketing.
Originality is hard. Most artists are happy to get something that looks like what a professional artist would make. If the boss doesn't like it, they'll specify what changes to make and maybe even provide a reference.
Japan be used as a redpilled example of a well functioning homogenous society
Their economy is stagnant, their people are overworked and suicidal, and they're slowly dying out. Japan isn't well functioning.
The reason leftists hate Japan is because their media is popular in the west and it isn't Marxist, which makes them an enemy in their culture war.
marxism is anti-Christian, is fundamentally anti-religion and he is not only not speaking against it but wants it to mix it with Christianity.
Dialog isn't mixing.
it was so bad that the Vatican had to put out a statement to contradict him:
That very link speaks of clarification, not contradiction.
I maintain that Pope Francis hasn't said anything that goes against Church doctrine. Maybe he says things that aren't compatible with the political right, but that's not religion. People accuse the Pope of being political precisely because he's not.
Sadly, words in line with transcendental love sound like appeasement to those obsessed with solving the world's problems through political means.
The faithful do have frustrations about the Pope, but he's not "flipfloppy". He hasn't said anything actually wrong. People misquote him and make inflammatory headlines.
By the way, globalization can mean different things. Higher interconnectedness of the markets is good for everyone. Don't trust headlines blindly.
Pope Francis is Catholic. He just doesn't say the things that today's politics-obsessed people want to hear. Not unlike Jesus, I might add.
Granted, he does say things that sometimes confuse the flock, but all claims of heresy that I've bothered to actually go into end up as misinterpretations of out-of-context quotes.
None of that is the reason the kid died. Teens often try drugs.
