I just saw a review of it from Saberspark. I have to admit that I'm a bit right of center in social issues, but this show looks terrible so far. Saberspark said it best when politics get in the way of good writing and characters, those things ruin a show.

A furry with eclectic tastes who loves the 80s and 90s. Mostly 1984-1992.

That's where SS is wrong though-ALL fictional media is inherently political so I rolled my eyes when he said that, politics in and of themselves can't get in the way of good writing and characters, it's poorly explained or bad politics that do(which is definitely the case with this show).

Again, what are you SAYING can be used to INVALIDATE marginalized groups. Not all things are inherently political & a lot of people in marginalized groups would rather NOT be associated with politics. I may be a "leftist", but I rarely allude to it(and saying I'm gay doesn't count) because politics are an insanely complicated rabbit hole that is so psychologically brain frying that it may cause some people to become completely mentally unstable 200,000 miles beyond repair.

Like I am already completely insane as it is from knowing so many cartoons, video games, music, films, etc. I am NOT about to dive my whole body into politics at any point in time because if I-I'm going to stop there, the idea that "EvErYtHiNg Is PoLiTiCaL" just infuriates me & I just find it wrong on so many levels.

Dreams are boundless, imaginations are infinite, space is a multi-directional spiral & Akazukin ChaCha is my favorite anime

I fail to see how it can be used in that manner.

Yeah they are though, even being apolitical is technically a political stance.

you can stop being an entitled ass for wishing bad on everything that goes against your views. Just stop being rude and wishing everything you don't like to be locked

Geez, chill. There is a civil way to express those things, or as you put it yourself, not "rude" way of expressing it.

I'm hardly the worst offender on these forums.
