...if people based their image of the character on either the manga or anime, they'd have an image of a white European woman.

That is what both the manga and anime describe the major's main body as, and depicts it the same.

They're including the entirety of China's media budget.

While I agree things like npr, pbs, and local newspapers are propaganda, you guys typically don't. So it's silly to compare the two like that.

It's like saying the entirety of the UK's tv license fee is just for state run propaganda; and that's not fair, channel 4 exists and works against UK state propaganda.

Complimenting people is gross, you're supposed to just quietly shit on them while praising their accomplishments as long as they themselves are flaw free humans.

Just a reminder since people apparently still have this confusion; ghost in the shell wasn't white washed. The character from book one is described as western looking specifically to be able to infiltrate any country without suspicion falling on Japan.

We can discuss why they didn't white face a Japanese person if thats somehow less offensive than hiring for the look of the android body instead of the original body that died of cancer as a little girl, but that seems even more silly than people that had no interest in the series (or anime/manga in general) getting upset about accurate casting.

Have you ever read comic books?

No, wasting resources is. And farmland is a resource.

Don't get me wrong, obviously there will be a starvation underclass in any place with any form of capitalism, but there's no reason to exacerbate the problem. Especially when you could generate the same total energy with 1/5th that land and use the rest for actual food. Or rewilding.

Turns out solar is easier and cheaper per kwh.

Next defense of wasting 30 million+ acres of prime farmland when people are starving in the US?

Minors are going to access the internet no matter what you do, it's on them an their underdeveloped brains on whether or not they can handle it.

If their parents don't care enough, then let them be raised here, amongst the stable minds that think anything to the left of burning kids alive for warmth is tankieism (.world) or anything to the right of luxury gay space communism is fascism (all the sane instances).

That wasn't the comment I responded to, this comment thread is about Harris. I responded about Harris.

And yes, this one has a green card, so instead of being disappeared into jail for an indeterminate amount of time later to be released on court order, he's disappeared into jail with his green card suspended later to be released on court order.
