And because someone else also does it , that somehow makes it right ? <| sep |> Someone down voted you wasn ' t me <| sep |> Hey I got this exact monitor last year ' s black friday for $ 199 . 99 I love watching movies on this thing , it ' s so awesome . Just make sure that you know the pros and cons of an ultrawide vs . a dual monitor setup before you get oneOh and this monitor overclocks to 75 hz , though PERSONALLY I can ' t tell a difference . <| sep |> Stick those cookies in a microwave for a few seconds . Hot chocolate chip cookies <| sep |> That ' s a great article , thanks . My impression though was that it made it out to be more significant than just a loud minority . I ' ve always thought of internet culture in the US to have started out very leftleaning because it was 1 . used a lot by scientists who tend to be leftleaning , 2 . younger users , and 3 . the whole cyberpunk culture thing . These three have outnumbered the 4 chan and related users so far . Now that everyone ' s on the internet , I can see how the altright has become more significant . I still see them more as a loud minority . Outside of the US , though , I don ' t think you have 1 . and 3 . being significant cultures on internet users during its formation in the country . Instead , you just have the 2 . younger users dominating the internet . So I don ' t think there was as much of a leftleaning culture that dominated the internet at the beginning . If we focus on Japan and otaku culture on the internet , neither of these are 1 . or 3 . Regarding 1 . , In the US , there ' s a generalization that STEM types and anime go together more often nonSTEM and anime , but in Japan , no such stereotype or trend like that AFAIK . Regarding 3 . , there is cyberpunktype anime , but otaku anime is totally distinct from that . I suppose just having 2 . younger users dominate isn ' t enough to drown out young rightwingers , which isn ' t surprising . I think this part hit the nail on the head So are you saying that moe makes you conservative or that conservative politics make you want to read about fictional little girls ? I don ' t think these two interests share a causative relationship . I would suggest they are correlated , but even if you don ' t believe that , they do appear to sit happily within the same subculture . Explaining the link between the two requires some level of psychological analysis , which gets messy when you assign motives to an entire segment of people . That being said , being openly interested in little girls especially when done in tandem with berating feminism and modern Japanese women suggests the desire for more traditional gender roles , male dominance , or at least a disinterest in maturity among the opposite sex . Hard not to see this as a reactionary position in the context of the female gender ' s steady but slow progress in the last halfcentury .
