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.

How did isekai end up becoming the slave harem genre, anyway?
We started off with Magic Knight Rayearth, Escaflowne and Fushigi Yuugi too how did everything go so wrong
(answer is capitalism, duh)
Ok Fushigi Yuugi could be pretty problematic at times but still!
Before that we had the Neverending Story; it hits every checkmark for the isekai genre except the modern expectation of "video game boy wins at everything and gets the sex trophies."
Narnia, The Fionavar Tapestry, and of course the ur example of Lest Darkness Fall which started the power fantasy creep.
A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court was pretty based even if somewhat power fantasy too.
Also strangely Marxist in it's ultimate conclusion.
Also ultrabased quote about two Reigns of Terror.
