I am so sick of not only the stigma that animation being kids’ stuff, but also the response to that stigma. Disney marketing a 100% animated movie as “live action.” Manchildren unironically talking about MLP like it’s made for them and not little girls. And the fucking attitude that gore and fetishes are the mark of “mature” cartoons.
Like, fucking ahegao shirts, waifu tier lists, actual murderers, Elon Musk thinking what’s going to get him clout within the community is talking about waifus and rape doujins (and succeeding in getting that clout). We’re supposed to be proud of that?
I hate that shit. But I’m just not supposed to say anything, right? I’m not allowed to be angry at this sort of representation of something I care about. I’m just supposed to take everything like I’m a rock.
But no, I am not a rock. And I get it, no one fucking cares. Ultimately its my problem, thinking there could be anywhere on the internet I could escape this shit, but of course not, not even in a tiny thread in a tiny MLP board. My feelings on these things or anything don’t matter; not here, not anywhere, not to anyone. Just fucking kill me.
