death note if it was epic:

he’s also a murderer lol. age doesn’t mean you can’t call someone what they are

good comment

i think you have an unrealistically restrictive definition of meme for some reason haha

bestie i hate to break it to you, the sarcasm tag is literally right there

ugh you’re so right and what an excellent example too

a fellow of taste i see 🍷

i think the creator of this meme (not me if that wasn’t obvious) made a mistake in that it was actually L who was coded to be white:

When asked about L's ethnicity, creator of the series Tsugumi Ohba responded, "I think of him as a quarter Japanese, a quarter English, a quarter Russian, a quarter French or Italian, like that." fandom

no literally every protagonist is the good guy thats what protagonist means. just like walter white!

(sarcasm)

who said they weren’t obvious? it’s called framing. applying a political lense to a fictional character’s traits and coming to a conclusion within the political framework.

literally no one is saying these observations haven’t been picked up on or that the character is meant to be liked.

no hate to you individally but, as a pattern, these anti-intellectual comments do make me sad. it’s like picking up simone de beauvoir and saying “duh i already knew women were historically oppressed.” the point isn’t already knowing. it’s about intellectual growth from the process of analysis, the meaning generated from the uniquely human application of knowledge. :)
