do you really think all those white girl armchair activists on tumblr should be wagging their fingers and tsking at pocs about racism and imperialism? really?
most sjws don't know two shits about how japan's history is viewed and taught in japan or what the political climate is like in japan currently so if they have any brains they're keeping their fucking mouths shut
pretty much this. lacking any kind of perspective on it means you should likely not talk about certain controversial topics. for once, tumblr SJWs are getting it right by just not bringing this up in western circles.
uh i'm east asian and its obvious that defending imperialism like isayama did isn't a good thing and there are japanese people who disagree with his views whoa
he's a majority in his own country you're the ones being western centric in acting like his views aren't terrible just because he's poc we're not made of glass
the problem is it will inevitably turn into white hipsters scolding and looking down their noses at people living in a ~less progressive backwards part of the world~ versus The Enlightened West
so actually yeah no i don't want to see them weighing in about this shit thanks becuase it will just turn into a racist clusterfuck
