Being fair, is supposed to be a hyper capitalist government. The good guys are portrayed as hippies that get raptured to heaven.

But oh wait, you want people with mental health issues that are on the creative side to just hide away right? Just go away and be entertainment for your little fishbowl! Honestly I swear I remember a story last year about people not understanding how bipolar works and it absolutely astonishes me the amount of non-sympathetic people. It isn't something you can control and sometimes it's overwhelming!
Just don't be creative that's my lesson that I've learned interacting with people online. Or sadly just keep it to yourself because the Lord forbid, your own issues that helped create your creations will be used against you. (In my limited capacity)
Also considering the creepy stalker vibes that happen even with kids taking pieces of hair off of other singers? Lol if you think bodyguards are being paranoid clearly you don't know how fans can act. See Gooseworx on Reddit as an example just online fandom!
Being bipolar doesn’t justify you on being an asshole.

Lazy explanation: Is Pokemon with mythological heroes and with Harry Potter esque society. Rin is Gary/Misty to Emiya’s Ash. Saber/KingArthur(Arturia) is Pikachu. There is incest because Magecraft practitioner need to maintain their bloodlines, is not celebrated by the narrative but it happens. Nobody likes the sex scenes in OG VN, not even the perverts. The gacha game, Fate Grand/Order, makes millions.
Fate/Zero is the one piece of Fate media that could be considered universally good (depressing and nobody wins in the end.

My car has exploded. I am surrounded by airbags. My car has called 911. My phone has called 911. I talk to them. I don't know what I say.
Someone pulls open the door on the passenger side, and I hear a voice asking if I'm okay. Am I okay? I don't know. Everything hurts. What is happening? Is this really happening? My car and my phone are both on the line with different 911 operators. They are talking to each other somehow. I'm trying to tell them where I am but I don't know where I am or what is happening. I crawl out of the driver's side, under the deployed airbag. Smoke is coming from my steering wheel.
I look around, and the world is unfamiliar. My car, that I bought two years ago, that my daughter named Chocolate Brownie, is fucked all the way up. The back is destroyed. The front is destroyed. Two lanes away I see the culprit. The front of her vehicle is destroyed.
People are asking if I'm okay. I can walk. I think I feel pain. I don't know. I call my ex-wife. No answer. i call her boyfriend. He answers and I tell him what happened. Because I'm a corporate slave, i call my manager and tell them I'll probably be out tomorrow.
A firefighter asks me if I want an ambulance to take me to the hospital. Yes. How else am I supposed to get to the hospital? Should I walk there?
The police talk to me, the firefighters and first responders talk to me. In a daze I answer their questions.
An ambulance takes me to the ER. The paramedic talks to me about barbecue in Sacramento. The cot is uncomfortable and I can't get comfortable, I can't move to a more comfortable position.
When I get to the ER I text jokes to my friends that everyone there isn't in any rush to attend to me and this is reassuring. I am not actually reassured. I don't know what's happening.
Eventually I get into a "room". There's no TV. Vitals are done, I'm hooked up to monitors. I get x-rays, I get a CT. No breaks, fractures, bleeds or otherwise. This is a good outcome, I think. My head and neck are shockingly fine.
My ex and her boyfriend drive me home. I get home and I feel like death. Sleep comes, an hour at a time at best. The pain and anxiety keep me awake.
I call work at 4AM leaving a voicemail that I'll be staying home. My manager calls me in the morning asking me if I'm not working that day. Yes, really.
The day goes by in a blur of pain and video games. I am able to work Wednesday through the pain. Thursday I can only work a half day before the pain takes over.
I will note that even though I didn't sustain any inuries/fractures/breaks/bleeds, I did end up with severe muscle strain on my left upper abdomen. You really have no idea how much you use those core muscles until they're injured. Standing up, sitting down, lying down, bending down,... all of it is excruciating. I yell in pain when I try to get up to go to the bathroom. I yell in pain when I try to adjust my position on the couch. I yell in pain when I try to lie down for sleep.
Did I mention that I'm a fucking idiot? I called Progressive the day after my accident. Apparently the insurance I've been paying for the last four years was the *wrong* insurance, and they aren't going to cover shit. I am fucked.
Fortunately, today I found out I have separate insurance with Subaru. so if my car is totaled, they'll pay what I have left off. This means I owe Subaru my life two times over. I am a walking, talking Subraru ad for the rest of my life. That Forester probably saved my life or at least protected me from crippling injury.
It's been a shitty week, but at least the pain is improving.

The real answer is that the series is not only popular but originated from a doijin circle (basically, indie, but the term is also associated with pornographic fan projects  ) so there is a ton of porn of those characters. The series also has a lot of weird sexual explanations for a lot stuff, specially early on before the Gacha game dialed down a bit.
To be blunt, the dude complaining about it probably saw porn of Rin having lesbo sex (she is bi, btw… :evilore ) with her sister (I don’t remember if this happens in OG VN, like I said, weird sex shit that was mostly so inconsequential that can be eliminated and becomes an all ages VN).

(9 hours ago)Boredfrom wrote: Being fair, is supposed to be a hyper capitalist government. The good guys are portrayed as hippies that get raptured to heaven. This isn't inconsistent, socialism is supposed to happen after capitalism has peaked to end scarcity. At which point all labor will be mindless repetitive assembly line tasks. That's why the proletariat can take over, because they don't need to know anything else but how to operate the machinery. Then we simply distribute the output.
All socialist thought since Marx has been about how to skip building peak capitalism and get straight to that. Mostly by insisting that we're already there and scarcity has ended. Marx himself sometimes suggested this was already true in his lifetime. You'd think the fact that scarcity has continued since then would have debunked Marxism permanently but the idea that we can abolish everyone else's desires and force them to live how they truly want to live which is how I want to live has great appeal to narcissists.
This is also why almost nobody on Era is actually proletariat, they don't do manual labor. Even the ones who actually labor have some kind of service job or white collar job. That's all bougie shit that will be abolished because it's useless. It exists because it caters to the whims of capitalists, not because it's socially necessary.
They have a fundamental misbelief that socialism will elevate them personally and only them, when capitalism is the only system that can give them what they really want. The whole AI mass line they've adopted proves this perfectly. Under socialism if you're ordered to generate fragile Aryan whores who engage in incest BUT NOT LESBIAN INCEST, you have to do it. You don't get to say no, because your duty is to produce what the community demands. That's the whole entire point, that's the failure of capitalism, that if some rich jerk wants to pay you to personally draw lesbian incest he can do that and you can do that no matter what the community wants. That's an inefficiency, it takes resources that the community could use and uses it on the wants of two irrelevants. It's literally why we have poverty, because if there's no scarcity the only reason poverty exists is misallocation of resources, something which central planning is supposed to abolish.
Ultimately they don't really truly care, they're against capitalism because it's the "norm" and a major part of their identity is attacking any norms because it can only ever be everyone else's fault that they're miserable. If people just praised them and did whatever they wanted, you know, basic human decency, we'd finally get past the problems of life.

Like this isn't a great connection. I definitely don't wish this "extra conscious process" for men (even if they're joining it slowly anyways).
As someone who's HAD cosmetic surgery (minor, but..), it's not a thing I look at lightly. It's still dangerous AND it's still often elective. Some people get horrible infections or problems and the recovery isn't easy.
Using cosmetic surgeries "casually" as a fix to problems that aren't problems to begin with, but because narrow societal/patriarchical standards would be "pleased by it" isn't exactly great and I honestly don't think it should be encouraged, really. If you get it, fine; but messing with plastic surgery because "big butts are in" is just...kinda tragic. You risk a lot of money and health problems depending on what's done.
The fact we shun aging and certain facial types that we'd lop off skin and shave bones and inject junk for it .....sucks. :/ Now I'm curious what kind of cosmetic surgery Dice had.

It is like how I can "appreciate" the side effects of adhd medicine reducing my appetite to nothing and also acknowledge that the reason for that is in part tied to a history of very serious body image issues, bullying, and disorders. It's still objectively good for me, like GLP-1s are for many people, "shortcut" or no. But we can still address the social problems, misogyny and psychological distress that might put people who do not necessarily need them into the space where they seek them out, or feel pressured to. And we can call out when their usage is being used as a tool to do larger harm, like the entire state of social media. The point is literally to make women look like the DLSS5 slop filter and I don't think people here are incapable of making that connection.
Full physical transformation is always kind of a mind fuck.That's why puberty is Like That.
And keep the cheeks if you can. Filter them online or whatever but like.. You want the face fat irl. Rinoa Irl:

Taiga = best overall
Sakura = best route heroine
Tohsaka = normie choice
Saber = haha she likes to eat food hahaha isn't she quirky?
it's like someone choosing Asuka and Rei over Misato.
Edit: I've never touched fate after fate zero so my opinions are unbiased and based, unlike people who still suck nasu balls

At some point the world turned on its head and I didn't notice and grew into "good curvy", which has it's own baggage, but the best? The very best? a woman can do? Be rail thin. Always.
It is like how I can "appreciate" the side effects of adhd medicine reducing my appetite to nothing and also acknowledge that the reason for that is in part tied to a history of very serious body image issues, bullying, and disorders.

Just look at how the slop filter made Grace rail thin and conventionally attractive:
Oops, that's from CAPCOM's game website, let me grab something from NVIDIAs:
If that's not enough, NVIDIA even used the slop filter on the model for the character to make her thin and into an Aryan whore:
