No, not really. Trying to shame(?) people just because they read Harry Potter is peculiar behavior in and of itself. It's a book. People read it. People can discuss it. It's as simple as that. But I guess some people want to appear like hipsters for some reason, even though not reading a book is not a sign of nobility. It just makes you a guy who didn't read a book and thinks himself superior because of that. Like I said - a peculiar behavior.
Huh, I liked these series. I didn't expect them to be mentioned, ever.
I think this is more or less right, but the timeline is wonky. The books had gotten popular overseas before there were any movies. I've never read any of them because I wasn't terribly interested in reading what I considered to be a children's book, but I know several adults who read them and got really into the series and were excited about the upcoming movie, etc.
It's far from being the only product with such thematic. Moorcock never hide the parallels he draws between Melniboné and the UK, and the same goes for Wh40k. I'm sure some people more versed than me in English pop-culture could find more example.
Very on point analysis, thank you
Damn, that's such a disappointment. They could have made twice the game they released in the end. Its honestly worse like this than if they never planned those features in first place.
The age of consent is on average around 15 in the western world, so thats twice as absurd.And, like a train that is never late, the majority of the comments section on that mod are some variation of "she's only EIGHTEEN years old you sick fucking pedo!".
When the overton window shift was locked, so around 2012-14. Due to that there's little point in noting that 'conservatives used to rally against it', right now the only thing in common is the name.
Your mental image of what's going on here is a bit dated. Atlantic culture right now sees any interest young men show towards women as inherently suspicious, and looks for ways to leverage that against them. It has nothing to do with nasty old men, unfortunately.For the first time ever, public opinion turns against nasty old men creeping on "technically legal" girls. And of course they must all be leftists, because they're saying something I don't like!
What gives you the impression the people saying these things aren't "technically legal" themselves?
thats a very amogus statement fellow zoomer
Wait, so you're saying it's fucking ridiculous to ascribe distaste for creepy behavior to the woke conspiracy? Hmm, you might have something there.
