Incredibly fits my point that half the replies are “no argument, obviously she killed Tuvix” or “there is no argument, fuck Tuvix.”
'Tuvix' is classic Star Trek at its best, a wonderful, impactful, and highly debatable moral dilemma.

"fiction becomes propaganda if I don't agree with its messaging" and/or "I'm gonna point out everything outside the work of fiction itself to state how bad it really is"
oh the double standards
Timeline of Events:
>Witch Hat Atelier gets an anime
>Heavily pushed by official sources to be the next big anime
>Author has interview with UNESCO hosted by KODANSHA
>People call out the UNESCO links to manga and anime censorship
>Kodansha West starts mass blocking everyone for mentioning it
>Kodansha Japan recently considers canceling an anime for being "Too Insensitive" to people with disabilities
>Witch Hat Atelier author supports the riots within France.
Can we agree now that "Witch Hat Atelier" was a government psyop to push censorship and UK / UN propaganda? Also revealing Kodansha is compromised

Schrodingers lazy slob behaviour: simultaneously so trivial and easy that it's stupid of women not to pick up after their husbands but also so hard that the husbands can't possibly be expected to do it in the first place.

My view of the whole “teachers getting sexually harassed by students” or whatever discourse is that teachers hold obvious institutional power over children. The fact that acts of patriarchal domination and violence can sometimes flow upstream of institutional power does erase it.

It’s fascinating how it’s statistically proven that the better the prison conditions the less likely a person is to reoffend but the average human does not care because “criminal must suffer 😡”

“Men used to go to war” yeah and come back home to beat the dogshit out of you and them kids who weren’t theirs
Nostalgia for bygone patriarchy is crazy

What's actually happening here is that men are blaming women and girls for *men* deciding to devalue academia and literacy itself rather than share those spaces with women
It's really unfortunate that young boys are getting roped into this, and we're all going to suffer for it

This take is putting the cart before the horse. Girl protagonists outnumber boy protagonists because girls are the ones writing and buying these books. The entire history of English literature has not ceased to exist, there are still plenty of boy books starring boys to read

It actually IS the role of government to provide for you. Living in a society is a trade off of relinquishing some of your personal sovereignty for stability and material comfort. If the government doesn't provide you with ANYTHING you're just being oppressed

Bwahahahahahaha.
For explanation:
- Amazon lists them under "Teen and YA", i.e. precisely the category every smart 10 y/o has always read.
- they are reading them *because* they have mature content in an easily digestible form. That has always been to joy of books!

My hot take is that "kids should read books they enjoy" and "schools should teach kids actual literature, regardless of if they like it" are both true, they just have nothing to do with each other, really.

one think you have to understand about people like this is that they're basically 9 year olds with sexist views towards some female teacher that they see as annoying and they will never understand that they are no longer 9 or think about it any deeper

Also it’s unhealthy and unsustainable to maintain a cultural norm where men only get physical affection within a romantic relationship, not least of which because it leads to them misinterpreting innocently platonic gestures as flirtatious and creeping the person out as a result

And today is the day I learned there’s literally children’s literature Nazis.
So the goalposts went from books featuring male protagonists to RECENT books with male protagonists to recent books with *white* male protagonists.
I see you.

The idea that the problem with our culture is that men and boys are underrepresented in books, films, TV, etc, is so bonkers as to actually surely be some sort of delusion disorder requiring powerful medication
Justin Case (bet no one thought of that before) retweeted
Yes, in reality the number is not 90%.
The publishing industry is currently run by women who are obsessed with "representation." Go check mswishlist.com and tell me how many editors/agents are fishing for "marginalized communities," "found family," "sapphic romance," "underrepresented voices," etc. Then check how many agents are asking for action/adventure, sci-fi, etc. Almost every editor/agent on the site is female, which, if it was reversed, you'd probably consider innately biased and bad. Hell, there's no shortage of women on Twitter right now claiming that the industry being 90% female is just fine "because it used to be all boys."
"Outnumbered them slightly." Get the hell out of here.

women are deadass just people bro, the benefit to having any person as a friend... is having a friend
Justin Case (bet no one thought of that before) retweeted
I'll never understand this attitude, having female friends is probably one of the few surefire ways of ending up in a relationship at some point, rarely happens with the friend in question, sure, but it makes you associate more with women in general.
