>we don't
Everyday there is some faggot telling us we need to "build the productive forces" and repeat the Bible quote about "thou shall not work, shall not eat" here. That's why communists are so fucking useless, you just want to be better managers of capital than capitalists and nothing else. Even fucking Stalin envisioned a 5-hour work day by the mid 20th-century, and here we have morons like Leninhat (Phil Greaves) who say "you will work at gunpoint because communism is when le ebin workers do epic shit dude lmao", and you all silently agree. You are fucking useless, that's why most NEETs think you are a joke, and nobody cares about anything you have to say. Keep discussing some obscure historical trivia and geopolitics as if you had any real weight on the matter, maybe Lenin will ressurect from his mausoleum one day, keep praying.

Is it that difficult to comprehend how come many nihilistic consoomers, who are often lumpen-petty-bourgeois, just sufficiently financially endowed to be able to go become hikkiNEETs, or prone to the fetishization of Japanese imperialism and the encouragement of misogyny, aren't very receptive to communist ideologies?

>>17919
Yes indeed, and, like, basically every explicitly socialist state had historically the obligation to work for all who are able written into their constitutions.
Also, Marx himself remarked similarly that, to paraphrase, the aim of Communist society is to make it such that to labor is considered nigh sacred. Labor, that power to transform the world, is a special, perhaps divine, gift of humanity and should be celebrated and joyful under Communism. It shouldn't have to be work that is all drudgery, obviously. But even the gradual extension of humanity's time for leisure, as one goal that Communists have supported, is ultimately for the sake of the replacement of the domination of the burdensome necessary labor, which is what toil is necessary work for merely human survival, with the primacy of labor that is done for the sake of fulfillment for each and every, the realization of the felicitous and blessed destiny of humanity and the realization of justice and salvation; as Communists, for our goals' sake the productive forces, yes, must be developed, so that the burdens of necessity are no more the yokes which upon the masses cruelly weigh.

Somewhat ironic that there are now whites who want to be Asian all while there were many nonwhites who hate themselves and try to become whites, and it's probably capitalism's fault.

i was looking up info about the hiyama saya incident and it's easy to shit on "virgins" and "incels" but why would you be surprised that fans react badly when you have an industry that specifically targets mentally unhealthy men? this word is great because that's what it is
when you have these kind of parasocial relationships there are three actors: the "idol", the fans and the businesses that create this environment to profit from it. the first two are aware this is not healthy; to my eyes they're both victims & perpetrators
but the latter, the businesses, are the only ones who aren't victims cause they will always find a way to profit from everything; preying on lonely men and attention-seeking women (both unhealthy groups) is profitable and they will keep this cycle going

/v/-tier commentary about muh woke translators inserting trans people and normal vernacular everyone under 50 has encountered before into my animes. in other words, cancer by people too stupid to learn japanese and too belligerent to simply fuck off or ignore the word that bothers them and wait for a fan translation. when you try to hear out their grievances, it's all just bigotry and endless bitching. i fucking despise every single gamergater, they're the most annoying people on the planet. total consoomer death.

Reading your post I can only conclude you're a mentally ill reddit-lib, or a particularly skilled /pol/-troll (so a retard either way). Congrats, you almost got me to do a serious reply, but the very fact that you clearly didn't watch the video being about Japanese comments about translators, was the first sign in your disingenuous intent.

There is no Japanese culture. Most of what exists is a construct created to keep the citizens hikkimorized, supine servants of western hegemony. It's so successful it was exported to Korea and now it's come home to the metropole.

"Social Credit", contrary to the hysteria and slander, is largely about business regulation. The claims of sinister social psyops or social manipulation are yet once more the projection of Western societies. The irony is that now, as the system is under genuine trouble, policies of liberal governments outright clamp down on the counter-liberal and counterhegemonic positions more harshly and skillfully than their opponents, despite all the talk of openness.

An issue that rarely gets talked about in relation to /jp/ is Toyoko Kids. It seems to be a replacement for Delinquent and Sukeban subculture ( >>7655 ), although much less flashy and 'cool' looking. I think it's a reflection of Japan's repressive capitalism that seeks to hide everything that appears bad while refusing to fix endemic issues.

TL;DR: Cute weather woman who played a single, young girl as a role for her job got idolized by Japanese men. When she was revealed to have a relationship and a personal life, immediately was attacked by these incels for ruining the immersion of their escapist obsession.
