The Politicition was thinking about one of the few anime names he can recognize. Early Dragon Ball has q lot of sexual content but later Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z have almost none, which is fitting considering things are darker and more serious.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

I hate to suggest anything that would give a guy this nutty the benefit of the doubt (since his Twitter Feed appears to be pretty unhinged generally), but is it possible that he's actually saying that internet porn using sexualised "cartoon characters" like from Dragon Ball Z is a problem, rather than saying that Dragon Ball Z is itself porn?

Throwing politics into a thread titled "Florida Politician Calls Dragon Ball Z Porn." Perish the thought.
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.
Uh dude, with most right-wingers now literally telling people NOT to wear masks(or worse yet, calling COVID a "hoax") and encouraging people to risk others health and safety( because dear leader cannot handle a pandemic), this REALLY ain't the time to be defending Republicans. I don't see how any sane person could be one nowadays with all the deaths going on and with people like De Santis seemingly determined to steer the Titanic into the iceberg(because minorities are going to be hit by it the hardest so why should they care? :evil: )
Except the guy isn't a republican. Conservative, yes. But not a republican.

Serious question?

One is a political party, the other is a set of political views (or more generally, philosophical views). How do you not know that? You can be a liberal republican, or a conservative democrat you know.

I know that, but i've seen them used so interchangeably online that I never saw much meaningful seperation between the two.

Yeah, that's because the internet is an echo chamber of sweeping generalization, a problem Jord in this thread pointed out.

Same guy. This guy would be hilarious, if it weren't for the fact that Florida is fucked up enough to elect a deranged moron like him.

Could there possibly be a more blatant example of being out of touch than complaining about porn (with a public tweet) on a social media service that is about 50% porn at this point?

The day that the Religious Right fades into obscurity will be so welcomed.

Like, considering the number of women, queer people and people of color who make independent livings off of porn it's pretty clear that disparaging porn is just a dogwhistle for stripping them of their income and independence. Fuck Miller.

As evidenced by Ben Shapiro's embarrassing pearl-clutching over that new song "W.A.P" from Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion, it's thinly veiled racism as I highly doubt he would be whinging this much if that same song was done by two white women.

Conflating anime with China seems like a really bizarre mistake. I thought it went without saying that what people think of as anime is actually Japanese in origin? Why would anyone get those two cultures confused? Also, doesn’t the K in ‘KPOP’ stand for ‘Korean’?

Some people also thing that all of Africa have the same culture and are all black, i guess it's lack of education.

Even someone with the most rudimentary knowledge of history should know that Japan and China are different.
