Welcome to c/anime on Hexbear!

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.

I have problematic favorites too. I don't make excuses for them; I accept the bad parts exist and continue anyway.
The GI Joe's 80s cartoon was part of my childhood and is screamingly terrible US imperial propaganda, for example. I still glance at it sometimes for kicks, and Dr Smoov did some great parodies, and the PSA gags on Youtube are classics.
I really hate when outright right wing propaganda gets sophistically spun so someone feels less bad about consuming it.
Oh boy you'd have loved the Attack on Titan discourse...
I was there. And I hated it everywhere I found it. Including on Hexbear. Hated the discourse. The goalposts were moved around in a sprint from "this is leftist actually" to "presenting something doesn't condone that something" to "let people enjoy things" to "you must be mentally ill because you don't like the treat."
