Don't Try to Argue with me

(This is in NO WAY meant to be funny, disregard my analogies.)
This country reeks of hypocrisy.

The people in this contry are seething piles of fecal ignorance

The rancid odor of blind patriotism could knock off the entire population of Texas.

Hard-headed parents who won't listen to reason have idiocy just PERMEATING off of them like the kind of cologne you wouldn't want someone to wear while you're trapped with them in an elevator.

One of my beloved best friends is now offically more of a hermit than I am due to a little mishap involving her brother. But it isn't a little mishap to her parents. It's this huge "OMGWE'RENOTAPERFECTCHRISTIANFAMILYSOWEMUSTTAKEALLTHATISOFFENSIVEANDHIDEITEVENIFITSONLYABUNCHOFJAPANESEDRAWINGS* issue to them.

Apparently, liking anime makes you a: weirdo, pedophile, pervert, violent psychopath, sadist, masochist, and abnormal. Why is this? WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THIS GODDAMNED LANDFILL WE CALL A FREE COUNTRY!??!?! What is wrong with Manga? What is wrong with Anime? What is wrong with both of these genres in general? The answer is simple.

NOTHING, YOU HYPOCRITICAL RELIGIOUS GITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH ANIME OR MANGA IN AND OF ITSELF! WHAT APPARENTLY IS SO WRONG IS THAT PEOPLE, YES, MY MOST FAVORITE THING IN THE WORLD, PEOPLE ARE INTERPRETING IT AS 'Foreign garbage'. I have overheard some people's opinions of manga and anime, in fact! LEt me give you a clear cut example of what the majority's initial interpretations of manga and anime are:
'a bunch of cartoons having sex' <==YOU ARE A BLITHERING IDIOT IF YOU HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT ALL MANGA AND ANIME IS LIKE THIS!!!

Manga and Anime, boys and girls, are just like movies and books. There are good kinds, and there are bad kinds. There generes like comedy, action/adventure, drama, fantasy, sci-fi, and even some made for young children. They are just like anything we make here, difference being that comics here are a bit more gruesome and grown up; which yeild impossibly proportioned male meatmounds with gums made of worn rubber and painfully endowed sex-dolls that are supposed to be grown women with limbs that share the width and strength of a toothpick. Some things are alike in anime, such as common themes like cute magical girls saving the world with special wands or power-up forms,like a pink-haired, blue-eyed version of a Power Ranger, random slapstick comedy you wouldn't see coming from a mile away, and all that mushy gushy, kissy-kissy-goo-goo love rubbish in the same amounts as your typical daily soap operas. The difference here is that typical cartoons in America today feature impossibly (or horribly) proportioned characters based off of mindless everyday objects that revolve around wasting 30 minutes doing things that could get your little baby killed if they tried it at home. Although I'm sure anime has it's victims of those sorts too.

What I am trying to say here is that assuming that all japanese animation is XXX rated stuff, is just as silly as assuming that all germans are Nazis and all Russians are Communists. It's a terribly unimaginative way of thinking and it must be ceased. If you are one of these people who assume this, here's an assignment for you: Look up some famous japanese cartoons and then look up the same amount of american cartoons. I assure you that while the Japanese do tend to like their mature titles (just as we Americans do.) they are never forgetting the younger generations that indulge in animation as entertainment and not just something to get off on. There are just as many american porn movies as there are japanese, and if either of these happens to have more, then it's probably because the person or persons who came up with the concept has never taken a sex ed class in their life.

DON'T HATE ANIME AND MANGA JUST BECAUSE OF SOME BAD SEEDS!!!! THERE ARE REDEEMING QUALITIES IN THIS GENRE AND YOU CAN FIND THEM EASILY BY RESEARCHING IT AND BY KNOWING THAT WHATEVER YOU MAY SEE THAT COUNTS AS INAPPROPRIATE IS PROBABLY PRESENT IN MOVIES AND COMICS HERE TOO!

...I have seenthe worst of both sides of the Pacific, so I know what I'm talking about.
