Joe ST he/him Posted December 9, 2017 Posted December 9, 2017 strap yourselves in nerds, buckle up for some wild revelations: So we have the Shin, a bunch of pasty white, wide-eyed people who like to collect swords, and use Japanese-style honorifics.. yup they're all weaboos.... which leads me to my conclusion: Rayse, their native (to Ashyn) Shardy-boi, who seems to espouse being Passion, once got slighted by something inconsequential, and became the whiny-peebaby we all know and love/hate.... yus that's right Rayse is the god of the patriarchy 13
Jazzy Kandra she/her Posted December 9, 2017 Posted December 9, 2017 (edited) I frankly have no idea how to respond to this, Joe, you have rendered me speechless... Because you're right. Think about it! Indeed. He's even fighting a goddess who is basically the Mom-Shard. A++ theory if you ask me. xD Edited December 9, 2017 by Ookla the Kandra 2

Morsk he/him Posted December 9, 2017 Posted December 9, 2017 Anime fans are the patriarchy? This must be some black hole created by too many memes converging. 5
Kered he/him Posted December 12, 2017 Posted December 12, 2017 The 17th Shard is the Singularity of said black hole. 1
Farnsworth Posted December 12, 2017 Posted December 12, 2017 It's not memes, it's genius. Rayse is a patriarchal Otaku. Zero questions. 1

My point is that while we do have small Asian communities in "hill country" you'd be hard pressed to find someone with any visibility (i.e. someone other than nerdy twenty-somethings congregating in a basement) who could fairly be described as a Caucasian obsessed with Japanese culture (i.e. a "weeaboo").

I'd like to second @Morsk and ask, "How are white people obsessed with anime associated with patriarchy?" Are we just connecting "weeaboos" to patriarchy by throwing some shade at the archetypal privileged white male? If so, is it safe to apply the following logic?
