as an american I can get behind most of what he's saying, but come on. burgers, jeans, and fried chicken? don't throw the baby out with the bath water.
I'm sure he likes fried chicken if it's tori katsu instead of KFC. Unless he's vegan or something, but in that case, why is he making meat look so delicious in his movies
Remember that there is nothing inherently wrong with leadership. There are good kings, just as there are bad ones.
Sometimes the worse aspects of a government system isn't explicitly the head of it but all those who prop it up and take advantage of it. Petty tyrants taking their power and abusing it under the nose of those who could stop them.
All rules and things have exceptions when it comes to humans.
The whole idea of My Hero Academia is to exceed your limits. Their mottos are "plus ultra" and "go beyond". Deku absolutely does not believe in giving 100%, he's going to give even more than that
Two books everybody should read are Witness to a Century by George Seldes and War is a Racket by Smedley Butler. You would think these books are about today's world but they're actually about shit going down a hundred or more years ago. It's strangely heartening to think that the United States has always sucked this bad.

Okay, but Promised Neverland turned straight dogshit. The lesson there should be "quit while you're ahead"

Sometimes season one is meh, and then the series improves, like The Next Generation.
Sometimes you get one great season, and profit motives squeeze out a second shit season.

Iv read it, it's also straight dogshit later. It goes downhill on quality basically nonstop after the half way point.
Stop while your ahead is very apt

just to be clear this is Hayao? There are a lot of Miyazakis in anime.
ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml · 9 pts · 109d
But how many Miyazakis despise the US as much as him? lol
Yeah, that's Hayao.

Luffy: Also monarchy is fine if I personally like the King.

You forget, Luffys real superpower is to be unconsciously aware of everyone’s true morality instinctively

Obviously. He intends to be king of the pirates after all.

I mean, how many democracies do we see in One Piece?
It could boil down to his lack of knowledge in other systems.
RedFrank24@piefed.social · 3 pts · 109d
Water 7 is apparently democratic... To a degree.

And at work this will drain you out and get you no reward

The entire point is pushing beyond what you can give cripples and hurts you.
The message is you should give YOUR 100% not your mentors, not your friends, not your coworks or what others expect of you.
Do what YOU can. Because we all can be a hero if we give it our best.

Believe it or not, I learned the most important lesson of firearm safety from an anime when I was like five.
