Is it anti-capitalist to say that capitalism art still existed prior to it, therefore it likely would have been created regardless of if capitalism were a thing? To say "the reason anime exists is because of capitalism" is a shallow worldview that ignores the insane standards the existing industry puts on the workers. You don't have to work 30 years on a dream project to be given decent working conditions, but the profit motive gives an incentive to cut corners or drop quality to pander, which are clearly detriments. I'm saying removing those barriers would help to create quality productions. Obviously, we get plenty of quality shows under capitalism. I'm only trying to make the point that it's obviously not the only factor, much less so important thst the industry would cease to exist without it (an insane belief). Now, RACG is a lunatic who thinks everyone that looks at her the wrong way should get Old Yellered, so this isn't a defense of her ridiculous positions.

No, anime is an art form. Art existed before capitalism. If people can organize to create something, they will. If anything, capitalism ACTIVELY makes it harder to do that. Have you seen the working conditions anime company have? Is that really the only way to create art?

You strike me as the type of person who responds to "How are you?" with a manifesto about eradicating "undesirables". Those poor cashiers..... -
Why are you asking a bunch of gotcha questions that have nothing to do with what I said? When did I say anything about anime coming from non-capitalist countries?

That's not what communism is, nor is it relevant to art existing before capitalism.

Art existed before capitalism. Wtf are you talking about?

No, she's an authoritarian fascist. Like she thinks executing people for disagreeing with her is progressive.

I've never gone to a casino and played blackjack. Broadly speaking, they do deliberately stack every game against you in one way or another. I guess blackjack would be harder to stack the deck on, but purposefully giving low cards should be simple enough for any experienced dealer. -

Card counting is actually cheating in basically every card gsme. It nullifies shuffling altogether. Dealers get away with it since it isn't actually illegal to cheat at a game and they can do what they want in their establishment to prevent loss of profits. It's a scummy open secret. -

It's all rigged. I'd suspect blackjack would be moreso since the dealer is in complete control, while slots are designed to give a small payout so people will continue using it in hopes of the very slim (but technically possible) jackpot. Unless you're real good at counting cards, slots would probably have a more reliable payout so long as you stop after making even a small win since it does have a win probablity. Dealers will fuck you over and are likely to have plants in any group game. Basically nothing in a casino is going to be particularly reliable, even with strategy. I believe dealers even open new packs of cards for every new game so they can more easily screw patrons. At minimum, never play a game against the dealer. -

The majority of children with gender dysphoria experience a decrease or complete recovery from it post-puberty. In fact, most adults who experience it began feeling it during puberty. That's "most," not "all." But that's one of the primary reasons for puberty blockers to be used to delay puberty to see whether or not it fades. -

I don't think I've ever met a doctor with long or polished nails.
