So you're saying that everyone that dislikes anime "just doesn't get it" ? That's a pretty silly take.
I've watched about 100 different shows and all kinds of anime genres over many years but I stopped because I can't do it anymore
Most Anime shows suffer from the same issues. Personally The 2 most difficult things to deal with in are:
- Incredibly frustrating dialogue
I hate how characters speak in an extremely unrealistic and cringy way. It throws me off every time and I can't connect with the characters. It doesn't need to be realistic dialogue of course. I just think that anime is very far removed from acceptable dialogue, even for a show
- Shows never go beyond their basic tropes
Edgy anime is edgy and then nothing else. Every slice of life is just that and nothing else. Everything is extremely formulaic and you're just left with the characters. And the characters are unidimensional. Please add some substance to the plot. Create more human and imperfect characters. Every character represents a trope and has no more nuance than that. The clumsy character is just clumsy. The bully character is just a bully. The main character is either the smartest or the most powerful being in the universe. EVERY TIME.
Seinen anime is a bit better regarding this last point. but it's still too much. I can't sit through an episode without cringing several times. Especially over the dialogue
You're not looking at this correctly. No one congratulates themselves for returning the cart.
The point here is that the simple act of returning the shopping cart is the baseline of ethical behavior. This is just illustrating that society's individualism is so strong that this simple act of spending 10 seconds to keep the place in order is often ignored.
Of course people that return the shopping cart can be ignorant assholes as well. But the point is that this extremely basic act is severely lacking in society. Therefore we can't expect, as you said, more advanced ethical values. Such as using one's time and energy to promote changes to other foreign countries
Your right to free speech ends when it turns into terrorism, racism or a call for a coup.
There are some things that should be banned, such as the twitter accounts that promoted the attempt at a coup in Brazil in Jan 8 2023.
These are the accounts that the judge asked to be banned. After Twitter didn't comply they started sending fines and eventually outright banning it.
Free speech doesn't mean you can say literally anything. It means the government cannot punish you for your political views. But they can, and must punish racism and anti-democracy speech.
Also, it's a misconception that a decentralized service cannot be banned. In fact it's not hard at all
Wait till you see Augustus Magnus the cat And his brother Brutus Maximus the other cat
Sure but in this case the judge is not censoring merely incorrect information. It's written in the article that I assume you haven't read
The judge ordered to remove the account of a militant group that attempted a coup after the party they support lost the election
This is exactly the kind of thing that should be censored. Anti democracy groups
It's all appeal to emotion
A good narrative is captivating. It's really simple and comforting to know that the world is good vs evil and you're on the good side. Those guys are on the devil's side and we must stop them at all costs or it will be THE END OF AMERICA!! ** Dramatic yelling **
It's easy to convince less educated people using fear and misdirection. What are they gonna do? Check the sources and think critically about the topic? Lol
Convincing someone that thinks you're their mortal enemy is difficult. That's why you have to be their best friend. Show them that you care for their opinion and ask them to explain to you. Show genuine curiosity and then give them something to think about.
"Hey, I see your point man, but I don't know enough about this so I'm not sure. Hey I've found this article that has some interesting points. What do you think?"
It's not easy but I think this is what really creates change
I'd be scared to hear that. Those mfs have 40 thousand hammers!!
Hold on buddy, don't be so critical of the US
They're working very hard to ensure every person has a firearm in each hand at all times. With all that work there is little time to worry about healthcare
Of course i would appreciate it if we stopped selling weapons.
The West is not perfect by any means. (and I noticed you skipped answering my question about dictators with EU support)
My point is that country leaders have limited influence. They can't influence everything like you seem to suggest
My brother what can they do?? They put diplomatic pressure and sanctions in place but there's nothing more a country can do to influence another nation.
There are US and EU sanctions in Venezuela since years. But they still manage to live in their limited space.
Saudi Arabia is an Absolute Monarchy. They have a king and all that bullshit. The king is a de facto dictator BY DESIGN. that's their constitution.
What do you expect us to say?? "hey, how about you abolish your whole political system? Because you know... We kinda don't like it"
I don't like it either bro but it is what it is. We have to live with that bullshit. Unfortunately there is no solution to everything
Name a dictator that gets political support from the EU
Remember to be your enemy's best friend!
when you criticize someone your objective is to help them form a better opinion. If you simply point out that their opinion is wrong it's likely that they will consider your argument as an attack on their values or self. At this point the argumentation is of no value
Instead talk to them like you would talk to your best friend. Listen and try to understand where their concern comes from, and ask questions that make them have to analyse their own opinions.
You need to help them see what their biases/emotions won't let them. It takes patience and compassion.
