Thinking aloud here, but that one post going around taking the piss out of fandom critique of children's media for being about the power of friendship instead of Marxism: it's not lost on me that the op is a popular mangahood blogger lmao

#babe is it terminally online to critique an anime about genocide and imperialism for being a juvenile ''power of friendship'' take #on resolving genocide and imperialism?#surely these idiots get that it's super cringe to want anti-imperialism in their funny cartoons about imperialism 🤪#thing is: the association of that blogger w/fma doesn't necessarily mean that post implicates critique towards mangahood per say #but i find it pretty funny all the same #(this isn't a vent post but more a bemused way of pointing out how fandom brain erases imperialism in media #while also completely centering political discourse on entertainment media instead of news media state media & material reality)#but i digress #vent
