This push to vilify anime and manga appears to partially contradict the party’s statements in 2021, where the JCP affirmed their alleged commitment to “free expression” but had reservations about how women are portrayed in creative works.
" You commies say you support muh freedumbs but you don’t support muh freedumb to be a weird misogynist pervert!!! Checkmate tankies!!"
Extremely critical support to Vice, I guess? Damn this gamer is furious.
Wayback Machine links for both (for the people who have trouble accessing archive.is, assuming it isn’t just me):
That Vice documentary was… uh… I can’t even put it to words, this is absolutely disgusting. I knew the pedophile problem was bad, but I didn’t think it would be that bad. Holy shit.
If you think that’s bad you should check out their other documentary about kids for sale in Japan
Japan as a whole needs a complete restart. Communist revolution when
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
this fucking website is gonna be an absolute goldmine of horrible gamer/weeb takes isn’t it?
CW mentions of CSAM
Completely conflating drawn CSAM with “fanservice” repeatedly, insisting its fine because its just drawings and could have no impact on the real world, and the usual gamer/otaku takes on women in video games, etc.
Then I just decided to check their front page and see if there was more garbage, and immediately found an example of them complaining about their sexed up video game characters being sanitized by wokies or whatever for unrealistic body proportions, and the writer clapped back saying x character was actually based on a 3d scan of a real life model. A) that doesn’t mean it isn’t promoting an unrealistic beauty standard just because it isn’t physically impossible. and B) I clicked through to the tweet source on that, and then to the account for the game it was promoting, and the character shown on the game’s profile had thighs and asses and boobs like twice as big as the IRL model. Amazing work all around.
Gamers trying to go after vice for going after pedophilia is so pathetic it’s hilarious.
Despite all this, Vice News has hypocritically supported actual pedophilia, as noted by their past articles and videos:
Of the listed, just reading the top line shown in the screengrabs the gamers deigned to share, 5 are clearly about people with an attraction disorder but didn’t commit CSA, and one about satanic panic. Can’t even read the first paragraph and probably just googled “vice pedo” and cobbled the results together, what unserious people.
