Florida Politician Calls Dragon Ball Z Porn

Post by Gyt Kaliba » Wed Jul 29, 2020 3:36 pm

I figured we could all probably use a laugh given what a trial this year has been for us all in so, so many ways - and a politician looping back around to the age-old 'ALL ANIME IS PORN' argument is certainly worth a chuckle compared to other news flooding our timelines.

His exact words were to warn his followers on Twitter about the great deal of anime porn on the internet, but he then goes on to single out Dragon Ball Z specifically as one of the worst offenders. Since, you know, Florida doesn't have any other problems to deal with right now at all, so let's crack down on that nefarious DBZ, corrupting our kids! :lol:

I'm honestly not even mad. I think it's hilarious that this is the look he's decided to go with, with (again) EVERYTHING else happening in the world right now. Hopefully others also find it as ludicrously hilarious and also get a chuckle out of this one.

Porn is good if you are a consenting adult but children cannot consent to said content. Dragon Ball, which features not only pornography but a mentor character trying to sexually assault women is not appropriate for children.

That said, politicians just want to ban porn and penalize sex workers in general to fill private prison beds and keep women and minorities dependent on major corporations, so this chump can go fuck himself anyway.

This reminds me to some degree of the articles of oftentimes ridiculous accusations/denouncements that people made against Pokemon saying it was Satanic and evil when the series was still in it's massive craze blitz back in the late '90s/early 2000's. Some things change, some things remain the same i guess. :lol:

Does DB have some inappropriate scenes ? yes, mostly concerning Roshi. However, to label the entire franchise as Porn is very excessive, and shows a complete lack of understanding on what DB is, and even what Porn is for that matter. How anyone can mix the two up, and somehow by eligible for such an official position is something I'll never understand. With that said, it's a good thing Florida doesn't have any other, more important issues going on for him and other officials to take care of.

Well, I suppose there's a first time for everything.

He has some.... "interesting" views

EDIT: yeah it's the same guy

It seems so based on his Twitter page. Considering that party is politically bankrupt this election season, I expect to see more claims like this to gain attention.

Yes, let's throw politics into this discussion. That always makes threads better.

Yup, when I read that I couldn't take the guy seriously. He's probably never seen the series, and is simply generalizing anime based, maybe on a passing familiarity with hentai, and awareness in name only that Dragon Ball Z is one of the most popular shows.
Do you have any info about international non-English broadcasts about the Dragon Ball anime or manga translations/editions? Please message me. Researching for a future book with Dragon Ball scholar Derek Padula :thumbup:

Yeah, globalizing one man's opinion to cover an entire party sure seems like a great idea.
As a matter of fact, why keep it confined to just "Republican"? Let's change it to

Let me guess...American?

and lump all of America under it's shade.

Going by Ballotpedia, Miller believes in 'American Exceptionalism', which is...American Supremacy...uh...honey, you're a fuckin' xenophobe.

I can't find a list of his donors but I bet y'all he takes a majority of his money from wealthy donors and corporations, which doesn't really match his stated belief in individualism. What a joke.

You just reminded me my high school has a hentai manga, and some uncensored dragon ball manga (i'm not even kidding)

They are always up to something confusingly stupid. I live in Arkansas and even everyone I talk to mocks the state for their resident "Florida Man" stories that seem like something from a Family Guy cutaway gag but is actually true :lol: :lol:
