童夢 PART2 扉　1980

DOMU PART2 first page

The anime for Attack on Titan and Flowers of Evil released around the same time; ToT greeted with utmost praise and Flowers of Evil ridiculed endlessly. 

Why?

Because FoE was animated in rotoscope rather than the style of the manga.

How dare a studio try something different and experiment.

It was decided that FoE would not continue with a second season due to the backlash. So in response, although the two animes were unrelated, I boycotted AoT. Seeing the same people who uphold anime as a legitimate art style then burn down anything that doesn’t conform to the standards, was an eye-opener.

Most of these “billionaires” that are “stealing” “”“"Chinese”“”“” art, AREN’T doing that. They are doing so on favor of the CCP to steal Tibetan art so it can be destroyed.

There’s been a long standing string of *Tibetan art goes on auction* and some unknown man from China in a suit and glasses out bids the fuck out of everyone else, gets the art, and the art is never seen again.

Why is this happening? The CCP actively tries to destroy Tibetan culture, to deny it’s existence and weaken it’s claim to the Tibetan Plateau to make it’s active military occupation look more “justified”.

Actual Tibetan refugees, including the mother of the Dalai Lama during the beginning of the military occupation WILLINGLY gave away prized Tibetan and Buddhist historical artifacts and antiquities because they knew the PLA had orders to confiscate them for destruction.

It’s incredibly frustrating to see “”“”“woke”“”“” Twitter and Tumblr actively shilling for the CCP in their effort to undermine and destroy Tibetan culture and spread news that only further shoves the Tibetan Genocide from the records, especially when I’ve spoken with western Tibetan Culture scholars, and seen all the art and culture that the CCP has had destroyed or has gone missing over the past 50 years.

There’s a fucking pandemic happening.  We have basically no infrastructure to handle such an emergency.  We have to keep going to work and exposing ourselves and our loved ones and our communities to possible infection because we’re all one or two missed paychecks away from starving to death.  Those of us who can’t work are facing homelessness because we can’t pay rent, i.e. we can’t afford the usurous and ever-rising fees that a guy who contributes nothing to society but happens to own a building charges us to be in a building.

Oh, but the landlord might have to pay his mortgage!!!! Bitch I wish I had a mortgage

The for-profit healthcare industry is so determined to not handle the crisis correctly that they are *seriously considering* shuffling life-saving medical equipment away from elderly and disabled people and letting critical COVID-19 patients just fucking die.  There’s no fucking reason to do any of that, except that it’s more cost effective.   Because that’s what The Market demands, is blood sacrifices.

And speaking of blood sacrifices for The Market, they’re also talking about lifting the state of emergency and sending everybody back to work in the middle of a fucking pandemic and just accepting all the tens or hundreds of thousands of people who would be killed by that as reasonable losses in order to make the stock market go back up.  "Hey man, I’m sorry about your kids and I’m sorry about Meemaw and I’m sorry about your friends with respiratory issues, but they’re just useless eaters anyways and we just gotta get that line to point up.“

The presidential election looks like it’s gonna come down to an epic battle between one conservative rapist and another, different conservative rapist.  

Meanwhile the planet is still heating up and we’re still disappearing people into camps in the desert.

Is this the world you want?  Are you just going to accept this?  Are you really just going to say “yes sir, thank you sir” and take this lying down and wait for shit to just go back to normal?  Like a dog?

Or are you going to fight?

Because I got news, man:  It’s not going back to normal.  Not ever.

You need to look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself:  Am I going to take this?  Am I going to stand up and fight?  Or am I going to force my grandchildren to suffer the shame of laying a coward’s bones in my grave?

UK: mutual aid / rent strike

… let me get this straight. The average rent in Houston is $1338 (1 bed: $1148; 2 beds: $1446). Every single month for who knows how long you were paid thousands of dollars x32 and you didn’t save anything?

And yet you expect tenants on a minimum wage to save enough money to pay off your mortgage?

Landlors really expect people to sell their own car and borrow money from friends and family because - in the mist of a pandemic where some people barely have enough money to eat - they feel entitled to your money.

Couple things to remember:

1. These people are fucking cannibals and have no hearts or souls or shame and will not stop until they are stopped

Fight

Fight hard

They credited 詹詠翔 Yung Hsiang Chan on guitar but they don’t list him as an official member. He did play live with DSPS last year, so it’s nice that they included him in the MV. (I don’t know if he played on the new release.)
