Power? Control? Indoctrination and lack of critical thinking skills to escape it? Some kind of latent fear where they think if they don’t come out on top someone will, treating life as a zero sum game? There’s lots of potential reasons for people to act this way but it probably depends on the individual. I’m not comfortable painting with a super wide brush here because its dehumanizing, and these people are human. Reprehensible? Perhaps, but still human.

We can wax philosophic about why anyone does the things they do, but in the end it doesn’t matter why they do what they do, it matters what they do and what actions we can take to try and improve our own lives and the lives of the people we care about.

The right wing is afraid of a totalitarian dystopia?

Lol, no they’re not. They salivate at the thought of having a totalitarian dystopia where they’re on top. This is just more projection shit on their part. If anything, 15 minute cities deradicalize people by putting them in proximity to more diversity, make people friendlier by making them get to know their neighbors better, and financially better off because they’re not forced to buy and maintain a vehicle to live a healthy life.

But fascists can’t put the boot on your neck as easily if you have more wiggle room with money or solidarity with the working class, so of course they’re afraid of it.

+1 to Undead Unluck, I can’t believe how good it got from where it started. Phenominal stuff.

There’s potentially a bot that can post weekly currently airing anime episode discussion threads, but it’d be good to know what shows people are watching this season. The rest of the community would drown if we posted a thread for every show that’s currently airing, so that’ll be a problem that needs solving. I’ll look into that bot in the meantime!

If you haven’t read it already, the Erased manga has a different ending from the anime. Its been a long time since i’ve read it so I dont remember if it was better or worse than the anime ending though.

In fairness to the FATE series (not that it particularly deserves it, it was just important to me growing up so i feel the need to defend it lol), it is adapting a visual novel that takes 30 hours for the first route alone, with more if you count unlimited blade works and heaven’s feel. A lot of what gets cut out is internal dialogue that provides the MC’s actual justifications/logic for his actions, making him a lot dumber in the adaptions. Additionally, there’s a lot of VERY JUSTIFIED censorship near the end of basically every fate VN route adaption which is why we get CGI dolphins all the time.

That said, neither Zero nor Apocrypha have this excuse, they were adapted from a light novels and not visual novels and to the best of my knowledge they’re pretty straight forward adaptions.

Totally unrelated but Zero and F/SN mutually spoil each other, which i’ve always thought was pretty funny. There’s no correct entry point because you’re literally incapable of watching both shows without one spoiling the other.

far right group advocates for website that caters to far right groups

not even remotely a surprise to me, beyond I guess the fact that the taliban would have said anything at all about it
