Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims
Well no, there definitely isn't. An anarchist revolutionary who hates cops, wants to abolish prisons and destroy capitalism is not on the same side as the horse paste-chugging Qanonite who wants whites to rule over the other races with a massive militarized police force. The only similarity is that...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims
Are you really trying to argue that the Chinese government is right-wing? They're more right-wing than they were 50 years ago, but still pretty hard left. China is literally capitalist. It has a billionaire class, oppresses ethnic minorities, it attacks unions, it's constructed on socially conserva...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims
Can China still be considered a communist government at this point? Yeah, they call themselves communist, but they seem to have quite a few billionaires over there, and they’re becoming a pretty competitive market for consumerism. They're less communist than they used to be, but they are still comm...

Re: "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime" Character Uses the Kamehame-Ha...by name!
Is the name copyrighted? Considering it's the name of a historical Hawaiian king, you would think not, but I'm pretty sure that the kanji used to spell it in Japanese is different (as it's a pun too, "Turtle Destruction Wave", IIRC), so they might have copyrighted that.

Re: Why haven't we seen female Namekians?
I said it before, but while it might be possible to have a more feminine looking and acting Namekian, a true "female" Namekian wouldn't be possible (without a wish from the Dragon or some other plot device).

Interesting. I heard there's a rivalry between the Dragonball and Saint Seiya fandoms sometimes.

That would certainly make Bulma want to end the relationship.

Re: Buu's Physiology
Since Buu is basically magic bubble gum, I would find it odd if he even had cells at all (although according to FighterZ he apparently does...)
He was blasted to dust a few times, but dust particles are still larger than cells. I guess there's no way to really know.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims
Queer people are not allowed to exist in China. It is absolutely right-wing to regularly commit crimes against humanity. Again, that's too simplistic. Extreme left-wing ideologies can (and have) committed crimes just as heinous than the most extreme right-wing governments. The USSR, Maoist China, a...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims
J.K. Rowling is a TERF and if you read through many of the things she has said on the subject, she certainly doesn't come off as right-wing at all Anyone who is transphobic is right wing. You can't be a leftist and be anti-LGBTQ. Not to mention, many Neo Nazis started to support her when she starte...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims
You are trying to prove the existence of a caricature of leftism that only exists within the idiom of conservative propaganda. Let me break this down into the most basic terms I can. A leftist belief is "unions are good". A conservative belief is "unions are bad". So when China ...

Yes, and I am telling you that they're lying pieces of shit. You shouldn't be taking them at their words. And terfs are any different? They condone and participate in the constant harassment of trans people and anyone who vocally defends against this. No they don't. If you believe in the safety of ...

I never said that the TERF arguments made sense or were correct. I was just stating what their perspective was, according to what they say.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims
Against mainstream left-wing ideas, but I'm talking about extremists, who think porn is inherently degrading to women and encourages rape, so it shouldn't exist. They have been known to share common cause with the right-wing religious types that want it banned for being sinful. EDIT: Also a lot of ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims
Well, wanting to ban porn from being created and consumed by consenting adults is inherently conservative. All the porn and erotica creators I know are Communists, socialists and anarchists. Telling women, people of color and queer people what to do with their bodies goes against left-wing ideas. A...
