Never let Iberophiles forget that Spanish colonists worked 6 million indigenous South and Central Americans to death in silver mines
Oh that's Centurii-chan, she's sus. See this comment on from some months ago with details about her being racist as hell: https://old.reddit.com/r/GatekeepingYuri/comments/1jbucb7/anyone_down_for_a_female_eanasir_and_archeologist/mhyg1ny/?context=3
Also by this artist with the commentary "me almost slipping and showing my full gamer power"
C/W Racism
This whole trend of cute but perverted girls saying Nazi shit cannot start fading out soon enough.
If there is a list of things that should never have been allowed to exist, this should be on it.
Shit, yeah that's not even a little ambiguous

i don't understand what the fucking tweet is trying to say with "basically made sea-mexico and land-phillipines"
this is the brain of someone who thinks "West Taiwan" is the highest form of comedy
They're calling the Phillipines the South East Asian Mexico. I'm assuming they also mean Mexico is the equivalent of a SEA country for Central America.
We're gonna need more Igorot headhunter axes, it seems.
I believe in the Latino Belt as a concept of countries and regions banded together by its colonization by the Spanish Empire and their distain for that pathetic little country acting as a vestigial organ to western hegemony simply because it exists in europe.
You dont even speak spanish right
toxic yuri, but it's racist actually.
Why is it always anime girls?
It's a good way of removing the features of something that are disgusting and replacing them with something likeable. A cute anime girl can't be intimidating, and it's hard to dislike her. Replace an invading coloniser that SA's the local population with her and it becomes a fun romp in the periphery territories! Partaking in a fun romp is ok right? Even desirable!
That's the level of propaganda they're going for. They're aiming to make being the imperialist desirable and the fun side to be on, which gets the audience onto that side, and batting for it years down the line after committing their identities to it. It's quite literally a mask for the intimidating presence of male patriarchal violence that you can't remove from the situation if you depicted male soldiers.
Amazingly well articulated!! I've raised a post in the centuriichan sub to try and scrub this shitstain off Lemmy and wish I could link to this post and your comment but hexbear defederation sucks major ass
I'm surprised the artist made the conquered women look so sad.
Some of that tragedy is still bleeding through the glossy anime aesthetic.
They see the crushed spirit of a submissive slave woman as a good thing
Could be interpreted as submissive and demure, which is how they like their women to be.
There are two things I've come to associate anime girls in online spaces with. One is good, one is bad.
The good one is cool trans girls just wanting to be cute which is wholesome and valid.
The bad one is cis dudes that seem to like them for male power fantasy reasons.
I saw someone complaining once about trans women using anime pfp online because it's unrealistic, like what do they want them ro do? have a picture of their local starbucks barista as a pfp?
I'm actually the real Palestine flag IRL
That also explains the anime girl profile pics they always use. Very informative, thank you!
I actually want to expand this and say it's basically identical to how animals were used to make countries and their actions less intimidating/bad. Depict a country as a rabbit, an eagle, a bear, etc. They're disarming instead of scary soldiers.
This is the same. It operates on the same level and the anime girls take it further. It's also slightly enlightening when viewed this way because anime girls are also not really treated as human beings, they're treated more like creatures. Creatures doing bad things to other creatures is another form of distancing from the reality of humans torturing humans.
I was confused until I saw this was c/slop
Only 3% of Filipinos even have spanish ancestry
Slop.
