Ardainian Hebrew IsraeliteWhat happened to hope? Hope for a better future feels like a concept that's all but vanished in Western media, and is basically only found currently in Japanese media. Western media feels so damn bleak and grimdark, and the only "progress" being pushed is grinding identity politics axes, and not promoting anything that's unequivocally good. Environmental progress can only be made via bugpods, being antiwar doesn't matter, you gotta fight to spread LGBTQ+ all over the world. Pessimism and envy cast a pall over all of society when it doesn't need to be that way.
@ArdainianRight as much as the faggots try to hide it they know a storm is brewing and things will continue to get worse now add to that the infinite amount of snobby npcs that are so irony posioned to the point where they thing anything that isn't bland, boring and depressing is "childish" and tada! you now have the most forgettable media in history you could also say that the shit they produce is a perfect reflection of their shallow empty lives :top_kek: Sin Shake Sin - Can't Go To Hell (Official Video).mp3
@ArdainianRight The West abandoned God and religion under the pretense of "liberation". They tore down the walls of tradition believing they could free themselves, but that wall was the only thing keeping darkness and chaos at bay. youtube.com/watch?v=Ku3kE9Iz2TY
@okuu They got exactly what they wanted, and it sucks. The idea that goodness never really existed is a cope to avoid the reality of what they've done.
>add to that the infinite amount of snobby npcs that are so irony posioned to the point where they thing anything that isn't bland, boring and depressing is "childish" and tada! you now have the most forgettable media in history
Also the Cute Aggression theory too and the psyop that literally anything that wasn't "dark and edgy" was for fat 4000lb manchildren and Chris Chans, or you're that ghetto trash dude wearing a Rugrats/90s nick bro shirt in Wal-Mart. Watching some dark and edgy movie or some shitty deconstruction of a kids series or some shitty western cartoon with dick/drug jokes? Yeah bro that's real masculinity (as marketed by your TV).
@rlier23@ArdainianRight >add to that the infinite amount of snobby npcs that are so irony posioned to the point where they thing anything that isn't bland, boring and depressing is "childish" and tada! you now have the most forgettable media in history I'll let C.S. Lewis dunk on those irony poisoned retards:
"Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."
@okuu@ArdainianRight that's a great quote im gonna save it being able to show genuine apreciation for pure, hearthwarming things is great and i can't understand how some are unable to take the mask off for a few secconds and just enjoy the little things in life ottogemu.mp4
@okuu@rlier23@ArdainianRight don't forget that during the past decade and half (maybe two decades even) "adult" or "mature" media have been redefined to mean gratuitous sex/violence/drug use/cussing etc almost exclusively and its fans are almost exclusively soy creatures like :wojak_soy_point: one example of this garbage is whatever shit cum dicks projekt refund puts out every decade or so, most noticeably MUH ADULT AND MATURE glitcher 3 and cyberjank
Not just soy creatures, also that fat kid in school who thinks he's badass for carrying out another mass shooting in GTA and bragging about it like that bitch he totally fucked last night.
I think that's the reason Call of Duty and the like was so successful for so long too, everyone only played the MP mode (which at it's peak was like a Nintendo game with it's skill curve) and even when the single player got 2edgy4u, nobody noticed except with No Russian because mass shootings are one of those things that are genuinely shocking for most TV watching normies (and that every kid jokes about). And even then it's something not unlike that of a typical GTA gaming session except for the fact that you're literally getting to experience life as a federal agent.
Or the Zombies mode being you know, extremely marketable and "safe". It's as edgy as something like 5naf is, the kind of edgy a 10 year old thinks is edgy.
@rlier23@ArdainianRight@okuu yeah it's so fucking funny though, it's a wifebeater's trashy 12 year old kid's idea of adult/mature. just wraps around to being childish in a way
What really happens is well, you know. People don't like playing games where the dev says "I went on liveleak/bestgore/watchpeopledie to find reference videos ".
@rlier23@ArdainianRight@PhenomX6 One problem in our scene, exactly where you wouldn't expect it, is that politics and ideology are thought to be upstream of pre-political things like aesthetics. It's a very left-wing view. Walter Benjamin is no friend to us, but he was right when he said communism is politicized aesthetics but fascism is aestheticized politics. For them, politics comes first and tinges everything; for us, the aesthetic is the prime mover.
@PhenomX6@ArdainianRight@Xeraser@okuu fair, i don't really care much about it. my problem is always with this atitude some have where they think that they are suddenly better than everyone for having grotesque shit shown on screen
take for example redo of healer, it's rape revenge the anime but it never tries to lecture you on anything, it knows how edgy it is and the writters genuenly enjoy the edge EdlE8iCU8AAYISr.jpg
@PhenomX6@rlier23@ArdainianRight@Xeraser@okuu brother lost his dad the day before and then bought this game only to see the only father figure in the game die because a cucklifornian
