    Poster above you wrote:

    A society without anime sounds like an all-round win to me.

    On which you responded with:

    The silent downvotes worry me, this is factually a true statement, what gives.

    Meaning you not only entirely agreed with blanket condmnation, you also implied there is something wrong with people who do not share such sentiments.

      Yes, I make no mention of the art style, when I hear Anime I think of the industry, not the art.

      Edit: If you see what the image in the post actually talk about, it is referring to the way the current industry operates, and how nobody would be willing to make anime the way its produced now under socialism, which I 100% believe will be the case.

      • I guess you agree with me that anime would be produced ethically and with better content under socialism and that society without anime would not be an all round win, but a loss for the culture and expression?

          At that point it wouldn’t be “Anime” as we know it. I use the term to refer to the exploitative industry and subculture that it fosters, not the art. And no, I don’t value cultural expression over the material conditions of the workers who are exploited to make them, or the eradication of the toxic subculture that results from it.
