Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

He also wrote Planetes, which was at least socially progressive -- prominent female black character, not caricatured either -- though I don't remember the rest of the politics well (it's been holy shit more than twenty years since I read it and iirc the anime did its own thing with the terrorist plot). I was a fan long before Vinland Saga took off and he did always give me the impression he was left adjacent but that was also before I became a commie, lol
