Genuinely if you can’t even see the meaning behind a story why do you bother reading any ANY book. So many books out there mention the most atrocious shit but do people stop reading? While some do because they obviously can, but others can just as well read it through for themselves. Reading something with things that are uncomfortable doesn’t mean the reader has no idea it is uncomfortable. Does knowing that it has sensitive topics and feeling grossed out make you somehow the better person? No. Like when you read The Handmaid’s Tale, you know the stuff happening it terrible, then base on that in your opinion you would tell others they should stop reading treating them as if they were blind??? What utter bs.
It took me a while to discover the word for this: Ethnocentrism - to apply one's own culture or ethnicity as a frame of reference to judge other cultures, practices, behaviors, beliefs, and people, instead of using the standards of the particular culture involved.
It's not always a bad thing, but the amount of times I see this happen to fictional work (even in works that actually means to commentate an criticise a culture or society) is insane.
Btw, I found out about this word because I was looking for something that I observe often in reincarnated into historical setting: chronological snobbery and chronocentrism.
Ohhh! Thank you teaching me a new word!
Irony being that they lecture others on the "good" and "bad" content but they read Jinx (gave it 3/5 stars) and A Low Tide at(?) Midnight (gave it 5 stars). Your logic is that we shouldn't "encourage" writers to include bad things, BUT you technically "encourage" rape, sexual assault, violence, and blackmail of intimate partners ok ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
Some people really do the opposite of what they thought they would. Doesn’t bat an eye at one content while judging harshly another. Honestly this manga is much more tame than other ones with all type of atrocities.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAH BITCH YOU OBSESSED WITH ME
oh god you now stalking me isg you low key creepy honestly get a job or are you two 10 year olds who try to make sense of pedophilia just because you like to read shit like this. When I rated jinx the rape hadn’t started yet and dropped when I can’t remember when and the low tide midnight was a no brain story that I liked that had rape BUT AT LEAST NOT A KID KISSING A GROWN UP. while I don’t see those as too deep this is where I draw the line and I said times and times again I DOMT GIVE A SHIT IF YOU READ THOSE STORIES JUST KNOWLEDGE THEY ARE WORNG IN TOO MANY LEVELS.
You kids too obsessed this mangas and have become desensitised to the grossest thing ever that is this. Ugh just get a life touch some grass and stay way from kids!
I just wanted to emulate someone who I saw with great morals, but I guess you shouldn't place just anyone on a pedestal :(
Fr tho, Jinx was toxic from day one. Rape is still rape, can't morally grandstand with that track record. Hey I am honest, I like Jinx and Low Tide, but I am cognizant that it is fiction and in real life I would detest and fight against the situations. This story had a ceremonial kiss, was it technically wrong, yes, but it wasn't repeated or romanticized itself. I would stand against it in real life though, because that is wrong when it impacts real children. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Actually, ignore me. We are not going to agree and I apologize for taking this too far. I did get petty, so I'm sorry for that. Let's just agree to disagree.
I’m honestly tired but y’all start whole comments about me so I’m gonna reply this last time and to you since from all whom try to attack my opinion you are the only who has been nice when stating yours even tho I don’t agree with everything .
Try to get it when someone doesn’t condone with something, is their opinion just dislike and go on whith your day don’t start shit like you wrote this crap. I have said for a 1000000 times already I do not care what others read or enjoy but this doesn’t stop me from criticising it when this is what I think.
Also never claimed to have great morals or anything the fact that I’m on this site speaks on itself for my morals. Anywho don’t be so pressed (not talking to you personally) when it comes to negative comments grow tf up and go outside.
Of thank you I truly am sorry as well about getting mad or being rude
Hmm if that’s how you see it that goes with you replying and checking the comments under this manga. You really don’t know how ironic you sound.
If you want a real view of how “obsessed” I may be, i genuinely didn’t read a single thing you wrote because it’s much of the same thing. The frequency is enough to give me an idea.
bitch I’m getting replies you come check and even start talking about me and i didn’t read what tf you wrote as them just stop talking about me sicko
Dunno but their user sounds so familiar lmao
Can the person named Ida get the fcuk off this page
