    One of the things that made r/genzedong so much fun was the sheer amount of reverse circlejerking, and knowing that the rest of reddit was seething at our existence. So there was a real tendency to dogpile on anything that average redditors tend to go ga-ga over – Japan, for instance. It didn’t go overboard too many times, and the mods usually caught it when it did. But I can see how some weeb-brained liberal might have interpreted it as racism.

      With Japan he have a point unfortunately, it was routinely going overboard, contrary to things like “gamercide” which was indeed like you say i always had the feel this one is much more serious. Though truly wicked shit like “nuke them more” was usually modhammered.

      Porn issue is serious and always well argumented, it is obvious the guy from OP is just a lib that just skimmed ovr few comments.

          I’m not really an expert on the issue, the porn industry is incredibly exploitative plus it’s basically rape in most cases. r/GenZedong had many threads about it and in many of them someone did write about it.

          Now that i think of it, r/GenZedong had many, MANY threads about porn and sex, and they were usually among the most active. Damn they are horny as hell.

        Now that I think back on it, you’re right, there were a lot of over-the-top comments regarding Japan, and sort of a general attitude that every Japanese person is a fascist until proven otherwise. I seem to remember one thread in particular (the mods shut it down, thankfully) where people were referring to the atomic bombings of Japan as “trash taking out the trash.”
