Yelnat is such an anti terf where did you even get the idea that theyre a radfem???

statement A: not all radfems are terfs

please don’t ignore the above statement

case A:

male/female (NB: pointed out) couples: had issues, worked them out (well, in Greg and Rose’s case, the entire point is that Rose did change from the person who would lie to whoever she’s in a relationship), would genuinely be happy if not for circumstances/is genuinely happy/might probably have a case of happily ever after:

OP: problematic. scrap this shit.

case B:

woman: has been in a happy marriage for ages and shows no signs of being even remotely interested in divorce

OP: gee I sure hope she dumps her husband and goes after the woman who tried to murder her


idk, does she believe that m/f relationships are abusive by default unless explicitly proved otherwise or what? because that’s the impression she gives off

pour one out for the “characters who were placed into dysfunctional/forced heterosexual relationships that are constantly romanticized for some reason” trio

and they’re all gay

Ah yes. These poor characters in happy and loving relationships with members of the opposite sex. How tragic. How abused. I might spend the rest of the night crying.

op is a radfem, ignore her

I don’t usually share this kind of thing, and I will delete it later. But this June 20th the EU want to pass Article 13 that will destroy fair use on the internet and will effect non-EU residents too. Goodbye to making money from fan art and livestreaming games and parody videos. No can do. Visit saveyourinternet.eu to very simply send a pre-written email to you MEPs. Please spread awareness as there’s not much time.

All you people who were afraid of Net Neutrality should be terrified of this.

C’mon, guys.

It’s a big sham my dudes, this https://effelants.tumblr.com/post/174463128077/important-the-eu-is-about-to-destroy-the-internet is what it’s really about, scroll down to the bottom of the post, it’s just a bunch of alt righters trying to lie to y’all!! 

Okay so I arrived back to a shit storm of notes. But this is definitely something I did not know about this campaign either. Does anyone have any other articles or statistics about it being alt-right propaganda hysteria? The link above is definitely a good start with information I was unaware of. I’m just so confused now, I didn’t realise this had connection to the alt-right and I definitely don’t want to be spreading false information that could help the alt-right. My apologies if I didn’t know the whole picture. I legit thought this was another SOPA deal, because I definitely don’t want fair use on the internet to be gone and that’s what still worries me.

Excuse me? Various sources, including Julia Reda have warned us about this. I’m at this point convinced that this is not alt righters trying to lie to us. I’ve heard that even news outlets that have nothing to do with the alt-right are talking about this now. 

Here’s an article by Julia Reda on how it could negatively affect us, and here’s an article on how to stop it.

Seriously, I’m so tired of the people that are saying that this is alt-right propaganda, and that article 13 is a good thing. We’re about to lose our freedom on the internet, and people now won’t do anything.

ARTICLE 13 IS NOT ALT-RIGHT PROPAGANDA! IT IS A LEGIT THREAT TO FANWORKS ONLINE. ANYONE WHO DOESN’T BELIEVE ME CAN UNFOLLOW ME RIGHT NOW. ANYONE WHO DOES, REBLOG! SPREAD THIS!!!

If you guys need any more confirmation that Article 13 is a bad thing for fanworks, just know that Ao3 is actively fighting against it. ARCHIVE OF OUR OWN. AKA THE SITE THAT WORKS TO PROTECT FANWORKS ONLINE. THAT IS A MASSIVE FREAKIN’ CLUE RIGHT THERE.

More info for those who have though this is a scam. I wish it was!

well HOLYSHIT!
spread around guys and make a livin’ hell for those bastards

Ok so since I kiiiinda live somewhere in this ~amazing~ continent called Europe and make fanarts and even references in my original work and I’d want to be able to share it as long as I’m alive so uhm if you can share this that’d be cool thaaanks

(Tbh, idk if it’s gonna happen or not because they tried to do something similar a few years ago if I remember correctly, and nothing happened but i’m still reblogging it in case.)

MINORS ON TUMBLR BEWARE

image

Keep an eye out for this pride flag! If you encounter someone with this pride flag as their icon, do yourself a favor and block/report them. This is the MAP pride flag. For those who don’t know, MAP stands for Minor Attracted Person, more commonly known as a pedophile. The MAP community is filled with adults who openly admit to having sexual feelings towards children, and post about how they fantasize about underaged children. It’s sick and disgusting, and these depraved individuals try and use tumblr as a platform to normalize their perversions. They appropriate the experiences of the LGBT community by feigning systematic oppression, and comparing the rightful societal condemnation of pedophiles to the violent persecution of the LGBT community, which isn’t even remotely comparable. It’s honestly reprehensible that they’d take advantage of pride by making a flag like this. It’s incrediblly dangerous because unifying symbols such as this create a platform for pedophiles to prey on children, and spread pedophilia-enabling rhetoric. Please spread this around if you can, and if you are a minor, don’t bother interacting with these scumbags. It’s not worth putting yourself in danger to call these people out or try to get them to see the error of their ways. Stay safe everyone!

where is the lie though?

It’s a lie of omission.

You’re comparing highly polished mainstream examples of iconic Japanese media to low budget, indie, and amateur american works. If you wanted to be fair the second image should look more like this:

image

The cultural exchange between American and Japanese art, particularly in animation, is hardly a one way streak.

image

Here we have Panty and Stocking, which boasts an artistic style that draws heavily upon modern western animation with it’s hard outlines and comical proportions. Shows like Dexter’s Laboratory barrow dynamic posses, dramatic framing, and highly expressive faces form anime and manga. Early anime and manga developed it’s distinct big eyes and childlike features by taking cues from western animation of the 20′s and 30′s

Betty Boop, in particular, was immensely popular in Japan. Her creators even made this short in appreciation of her Japanese fan-base.

image

WAIT I CAN ADD TO THIS ALREADY OBSCENELY LONG POST.

The entire Magical Girl genre is a big example of Western (primarily U.S.) and Japanese cultural exchange!

BeWitched (which was inspired by the 1940′s American movie “I Married a Witch”) was incredibly popular with young girls! This prompted the creation of the first popular Magical Girl Sally the Witch.

When the “Little Witch” Subgenre was big in the 70s the U.S. countered with animated Sabrina (from the Archie comics) which followed the same formula albeit with an older girl.

The 80s we start seeing more “flash of light” henshins/transformations being utilized along with the rise of the “Magical Idol” sub-genre in Japan it gave birth to shows like Creamy Mami and Magical Emi, in the U.S. it made way for Jem and the Holograms and She-Re Princess of Power (not a magical idol but still uses “flash of light” transformations). Jem was even a collab with U.S. doing the writing and Japan doing the animation!

The “Magical Warrior” sub-genre emerges in the 90s (even tho it has roots in the 70s with shows like Cutie Honey). This doesn’t catch on in America until the early 00′s with Atomic Betty (Canadian creation) and The Life and Times of Juniper Lee but we did see the start of it with the Canadian/Argentinian collab called Cyber Six. We also get W.I.T.C.H. and WINX Club in the early 00s from Italy which are both probably the most heavily influenced from Japan’s then current MG show structure.

Today we have Steven Universe, Bee and Puppycat, Star vs. the Forces of Evil, Lolirock, The Miraculous Ladybug, and if it gets picked up Twelve Forever which are all great Western MG shows that are influenced by Japan!

I could go on, I haven’t even scraped the ice berg on this! I have a whole hour panel I run on this subject called “Magical Girls from Around The World”

The point is the Magical Girl genre- and tbh animation in general- has been Japan and America (with some other Western countries thrown in) talking back and forth since the 60s. I leave you with probably the most direct influence:

image

can I add to this that Osamu Tezuka aka “the God of modern Manga”

image

was inspired by Bambi 

image

into deciding to give big eyes to his drawings so that they would look more expresive. He also remained a big fan of a certain Jewish American animator until his death, oh yeah this guy

image

Walt Disney himself was also intrested in Tezuka’s work, with Astroboy being one of his favorites. A similar case exists now between John Lasseter (Pixar and Disney fame) and Hayao Miyasaki (Studio Ghibli) who are big fans of each other’s work.

Japan and America are less of a competition to those who work on it and more of an inspiration, it is very often the fans and not the creators who create rivalries between people that would be friends in real life.

WE’VE HIT TERMINAL MEME

@caesarianconfection

I’ve said “I hate this” so many times on this website, and never actually meant it, because “I hate this” is just shorthand for ‘this is an example of a meme given a twist I wasn’t expecting with intent to surprise’. Which is, in of itself, a meme on this site. God damn it.

But this… This is something else.

The rapidity of a meme’s introduction to its zenith to its decline is so rapid that in ten years, you’ll need a damn twenty-page manual to explain this. It’ll be as unfunny and hard to explain as jokes in Shakespeare plays, except even more inexplicable because fuck, at least Shakespeare’s jokes are usually about anal or fucking your mother, good wholesome sex jokes we can all get behind.

For the love of fuck, how do you explain loss.jpg? How do you explain gun?

….I THOUGHT THIS WAS A YMCA REFERENCE

it is a YMCA reference - that’s one of the 6 memes being represented here

ok let me see if i can break this down easily. YMCA is the easiest place to start - the song itself has become a meme over time with people changing the lyrics to reference other pop cultural events. so YMCA is meme one (1)

this first lyric replacement (”take the breadsticks and run”) is a reference to the tumblr meme ‘stuffing breadsticks into my purse’. i think everyone remembers that one so i wont bother to explain it. that’s meme two (2)

“man door hand hook car door” is a meme of its own, a creepypasta from i dont remember when. it was a terrible stupid retelling of the generic ‘stuck in a car while hook handed man tries to kill us’ story so the stupid title caught on for memorability. that in and of itself is meme three (3)

‘gun’ is… yeah i dont know how to explain gun. long story short you add gun to the end of a phrase instead of what you expect the last word to be. its shock funny. its everywhere but its popular to add to “man door hand hook car door” for.. some reason? gun is meme four (4)

and the thing is, this four meme combo is something thats gone around before. meme combos are, itself, a meme. which means taking this meme combo and mixing in another meme actually becomes meme five (5)

which leaves us at loss.jpg. loss.jpg was a terrible bad comic supposed to be about some tragic event, but it was presented so poorly literally no one takes it seriously, and for some reason recreating the four-panel setup has become popular. so thats meme six (6)

(but i need to add that this is the greatest version of loss.jpg i think i’ve ever seen. the initial ‘young man’ lines up with the guy bursting through the door, and the shock meme ‘gun’ matches the shock scene of the woman in the hospital and idk if OP even thought about that but it makes this just so much better)

I wasn’t going to reblog this, but @pagesofkenna‘s comprehensive meme-by-meme annotation is a thing of beauty and should be shared.

average tumblr post contains one meme, this post, which contains six, is an outlier and should not be counted

it might also just be a coincidence due to loss.jpg’s format but the whole white minimalist four-panel setup is also suspiciously reminiscent of those early 2000’s rage comics

I was getting a political compass vibe too
