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.
Mechanime 1963-1980: Haha big robot fights monsters and EEEEEVIL mad scientists! (buy our toys, kids!)
Mechanime 1980-1995: Imperialism and war fucking suck, we need to create a better society where it won't happen anymore! (SUNRISE: buy our toys, kids!)
Mechanime 1995-2006: Have you heard of a show named Neon Genesis Evangelion? (buy our skimpy-clothed figurines, otaku!)
Mechanime 2006-Now: 50% chance it's right wing nonsense and 50% chance it's trying to recapture the golden age of Mechanime and is unlikely to have succeeded.
This is how we got the unironic Zeon stans. Just pure because no one explained to the kids who bought Zaku's why War is Bad.
(Because we're on Hexbear someone is going to link that red sails article about propaganda now lol)
will communism have gunpla?
Every day your one job is to build a gunpla model. You start off with low grades and some wire cutters and by the time you graduate you're building real Gundams for the people's army.
