Uh, sir, this is ChapoChat, what else do we have to do but discuss how great Fallout New Vegas is and debate China?

I would agree a straight dude who feels the bizarre need to LOUDLY DECLARE his lack of attraction to trans women is probably just expressing transphobia.

If it just genuinely the case a straight dude has never felt attraction to a trans woman and doubts they ever would, I mean whatever you can’t control who you’re attracted to. I’d say just yah know, keep that to yourself and if a trans woman ever does express attraction to you just politely say “thanks but no thanks”.

Too cold

They would need a bigger island

Hey you know my favorite piece of music, it’s the one where pleasant sounds are made in sequence with a rhythm and lyric poetry is sung over it.

I think it’s about human emotion.

Have you ever heard of that music thing?

Italy… aren’t real places

Chapos rejoice!

I’m American and I say: Every single American has been brainwashed from birth by the most effective propaganda machine in the history of humanity. Every single American carries brainworms designed to defend global capital and perpetuate a genocidal empire, and reflexively repeat them whenever challenged. Every single American has internalized these defenses to such a degree that they think they’re their own thoughts. Yes, even the so-called “American left”. Yes, even Bernie. Yes, even AOC. Yes, even your favorite Youtuber.

If you’re American, just shut the fuck up. The only way America can help the world is by dissolving itself, period.

Haha now you have to reject your own argument!

Anime consumption is pretty ubiquitous at this point. It’s really become in the same vein as video games, a formally niche hobby who’s hardcore fans were viewed as bizarre, but is now popular enough that almost everyone under 30 has moderate exposure to it. It’s not really even a white guy thing anymore, a lot of people seem totally unaware how popular anime is among African Americans, and while not 50/50 female anime fans aren’t exactly rare.

As such I think taking about “unique” effect anime has over other media is, well about as stupid as doing the same for video games. Video games tend to be more violent and anime more openly horny than most media, but yeah I don’t really think you can isolate any affects they have over any other media.
