I disagree since the stigma comes from people who think anyone with an anime pic is automatically racist - which isn’t true, especially since I’ve seen a lot of anime pfps who are normal online. This whole “anime pfp bad” nonsense stems from the anime fandom - especially K-On - somehow being a magnet for the far-right and antisemites of all people. One theory I have is that anime fits well with their reactionary vision of the world similar to 40k.
Honestly, I don’t trust anime pfps because I know full goddamn well that’s a favorite avatar archetype for feds. You see somebody you perceive as a ‘weeb’ with like… A Hetalia pfp or some shit talking on some MONSTROUS geopolitics, that motherfucker’s probably posing out of Eglin, Langley, or Dulles.
