Comment on Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest Update
Aljernon@lemmy.today 1 day agoIf our country finishes it’s transition to fascism and I did nothing to stop that, I’ll have to own that. Inaction will lump me in with the fascists. Neutrality makes me a guilty party; for evil to triumph, all good men must do is nothing. History isn’t kind to collaborators regardless of their reasons.

I hope you are doing your bit to stop it. You are clearly passionate about it. I just worry that too many people feel hopeless because it looks worse than it really is, which is the very tool the fascists need to win. Much like you say, apathy and inaction is what will destroy the world.
I am sorry to see so many downvoting me during this exchange. I don’t feel like i oppose your views, i just have a different perspective. I think its healthy to allow others views to help to shape your own. Even if all it does it reaffirms your already held beliefs. If i was to think of an example of this, i would compare it to the characters in always sunny in philadelphia. They are not the heroes of the story, they are assholes, they are a charicature example of what not to be. They reaffirm my position against that type of person and those types of views.
I hope you are safe over there. Its a scary place to live right now, or at least it seems it from the outside looking in.
