La mujer fue expropiada de todo medio de producción desde hace milenios, es decir, no se le permite trabajar, ni estudiar. Durante milenios su única salida para sobrevivir es la belleza; es un asunto de vida o muerte agradarle a la clase dominante o a lo que más se le parezca . De ahí le viene su paranoia sobre su novio; en conclusión, que no se les va a erradicar ese comportamiento hasta que extingamos el trabajo asalariado y todos por derecho humano tengan acceso a los medios de producción: Maquinaria, tierra y Libertad para todos.
The expropriation of women: The woman was expropriated from every means of production for millennia, that is, she is not allowed to work, study. For millennia his only exit to survive is beauty; It is a matter of life or death to please the ruling class or what seems most. From there comes her paranoia about her boyfriend; In conclusion, that this behavior will not be eradicated until we extinguish salaried work and all by human right have access to the means of production: Machinary, Land & Freedom for everyone.
* Orange Star! Pew pew, ‘Murica! Just like in real life, they’re the main characters of everything. Our commanders include President Hot Aunt Vibes, Ash Ketchum with wrenches, Steroids Man, GI Jane, and a little old Japanese shop keeper for some reason.
* Blue Moon! Russia but without the unrelenting horror! So many vague communist aesthetics but without anything to show for it, you’d think it was the Democratic Socialists of America. Our commanders include Actual General Winter, Lazy Cowboy, and a rich nepotism baby who fights with human wave tactics (which might be the most Russian thing ever put in a game).
* Gold Comet! Imperial Japan but now with 100% fewer blood-curdling war crimes! Originally called ‘Yellow Comet,’ but someone at Nintendo finally realized that this was a REALLY questionable thing to call an Asian country. Our commanders include an emperor who proves that it’s possible to be both Japanese AND a weeb, the only intelligent person in the entire series, and Grandpa ‘Nam Veteran.
* Green Earth! Slutty Eurotrash with tanks! Very insistent that nothing whatsoever happened between 1933 and 1945, thank you very much. Our commanders include Blitzkrieg Bishonen, the lovechild of Stede Bonnett and Jimmy Buffett, and tank lesbian.
* Black Hole! They’re the Bad Guys! They appear to be aliens, Nazis, and/or Hot Topic mall goths- but their similarities to the people of New Hampshire end there. They’re here to conquer the planet, despoil the environment, and make angry YouTube videos complaining about ’forced diversity.’ Commanders include Literally Darth Hitler, the obligatory dumb brute that every bad guy squad is required to hire thanks to Affirmative Action, Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way, a sexier Marilyn Manson, and Scar Fullmetal Alchemist.
Dual Strike, which is (honestly thankfully) not included in the remake, also adds the following commanders: Nuclear Nepotism, a white boy trying to become a rapper, another rich communist, Kamikaze Wario, Don fucking Quixote, meme robot, hobbit ninja, Karen, and Somehow Palpatine Has Returned
I know there's a lot of writing (that I agree with) on villains' struggles in hero society but c4n I also minirant abt how "willpower" is just makeup on "willingness to take abuse" (Aggretsuko corporate work culture & that Kermit "Imma keep it real w/u Shinzo Abe" meme) & the unique intersection BNHA creates by not just being a shounen but also abt the high pressure in moving up in work/school, working overtime being expected & normalized, sometimes to the point of self-harm (& even when the narrative condemns this, No It Doesn't🎂🍴), "Giving it your all!" (all your time to 1 purpose/entity instead of being a multifaceted human being with a life* & natural limits), etc. defined as True Heroism (bc valuing one's own wellbeing is kinda antithetical to the ideal of a hero By Design, & so often characters are forced into situations where saving others means getting hurt; the 2--self & others--are mutually exclusive), and Yet Again none of this being successfully/consistently criticized by the narrative despite being exhibited, just.,..,, The (UA) kids are not alright...
And it's a little thing for sure; it only really shows up anymore in the movies (it was more prominent at the start of the series), but I still needed it off my chest.
The story sometimes just refuses to choose: was [character's action] heroism or unnecessary self-destruction? 🎂🍴 Is the line often blurry? Sure. That shouldn't stop us from making ethical judgments, though.
Like, the last time I brought this up, I got pushback re:vague notions of entertainment value & the shounen genre, but like. Yeah, exactly? Do media tropes not also contribute to, in addition to reflecting, dominating cultural values? If your school & your society & your etc. are telling u to bust your ass** or else you're worthless, that might be something worth looking into & talking about, idk. Maybe Encanto's "Perfectionism is a homewrecker," & TOH's "School needs to accommodate children; not the reverse," and SPOP's "You're worth more than what you can give to other people," and actually sticking to those messages story-wise rather than just Telling one thing & Showing the opposite (🎂🍴) are all just spoiling my socialist feminist American ass rotten. Can't be the only wacky weeb who thinks an otherwise good message got twisted up bad on this one, though :/
Repeatedly putting characters in intense situations has entertainment value, sure, but there's something else going on in another layer to this that Very Much Does make social commentary (and it's commentary I disagree with), and I think because ppl are looking at the entertainment-value layer, they're not thinking to separate the Doylist from the Watsonian perspective or w/e.
If we want the *last* resort for our (both shounen & American superhero) characters to be self-harm sacrifice, then their first resort (& opportunity) should be to receive help; repeatedly being backed into corners where they conveniently can't rely on anyone else but their own self-destructive tendencies doesn't provide growth but teaches them, reinforces in their minds, that this is how the world must be. I can think of a few characters being receptive to help but not being within *reach* of it. I have also seen those same characters willingly shoving down very human parts of themselves in service of the system they idolize. This, too, is a form of self-harm.
A direct example: BNHA won't decide whether Midoriya's martyrdom is heroic or cruel, and I don't think it'll ever cast any of the students' level of dedication in an unhealthy light (even when certain other characters within the story protest, they're being used as a mouthpiece for the immature, or the faint of heart, but never of the author or narrative. Assistance is painted both as goal-inhibition & reward, but not necessity. The rehabilitation was a hero's welcome, not a change in perspective.) Martyrdom isn't a flaw at all here; it's something to be admired, even if this is concealed behind flowery, empty nods to "support" & "interdependence." Because (as class1akids put it) characters aren't allowed to fully meet the consequences of their actions, the story appears to condone those actions (& in kind the system that enables them.) Horikoshi thus can't resolve the systemic issues he exposes because he sides with the system he created (or certain aspects of it), and his MC has to keep believing in heroes. (Sometimes I feel it'd almost have been better if the issues were never touched upon, so that I could see through Midoriya's eyes the way he wants me to.)
I just don't like seeing overworking be glamorized, especially knowing what I know, especially especially wrt children, and I guess I've also become disillusioned, disenchanted, with the concept of self-sacrifice (moreso its overuse in media.) There are multiple avenues to self-harm; it's not always so direct. Moreover, the law of equivalent exchange doesn't apply to self-harm; you lop off your own arm IRL and all you've done is lose an arm--it isn't a guarantee that some fairy will appear and honor your recklessness with an arbitrary reward for hurting yourself. You do unpaid work for your boss, and all you've done is lose hours of your finite existence on an otherwise gorgeous planet. Repeatedly affiliating the two as an author (harm & gain) in people's minds can't exactly be said to have *no* effect.***
Anyway, tl;dr, glamorizing overwork is just one more nail in the coffin for me, I think. And yes, that is what it's doing. It's not really a main issue in the series but so often that little red flag goes up in my head during lulls in the story where we just see the kids doing their work as hero students, reflective of the heavy, excessive, detrimental requirements in our own reality & education systems. Let children be children, etc. Actually, let humans be humans. It really tries to, at times, but fails bc that's antithetical to the underpinning philosophy, social mores, etc.
*Like, if humanity can turn heroism into a profession, then they can give it professional limits, just sayiiing <3 I mean, they do, to an extent, but it's not enough.
**(You can't just OVERwork your muscles to strength; you can't train yourself to need less sleep, water, oxygen...) Overworking for pennies costs workers their time, but this isn't natural--it's man-made (to benefit the few.) If we can't change that system, the least we can do is to begrudge it for how ugly it is, and not kiss its feet the way these starry-eyed babs look at hero society :(
***It Most Assuredly Affected Me When I Was A Lass, I Can Tell You What ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ It's almost like… a huge slap in the face to have the Toxic Trait you avoided, deliberately made an effort to avoid, and succeeded in avoiding by just a hair… be held up and praised even if it is *lowkey,*(🎂🍴) ykwim?
Not to be that girl/ sister/ dyke but I can’t wait to move to ny to be there to protect my baby boy. he lets ppl treat him so shitty!!! We’re the softest in my family and it gets taken advantage of so much and I’m fucking tired of it. If I won’t change for me, I’ll do it for him which has always been more comfortable for me anyway. Omg plssss let someone hurt my baby while I’m there, my pent up rage can use a release and I haven’t felt the euphoria of kicking someone’s ass in so long.
Quick question, of I'm a minor an you follow me first, can I follow you back? I hav nsfw an nsft tags filtered an can filter another one if need be
Ah, didn’t realize I was following a minor, whoops. I try to avoid that because I do occasionally make lewd jokes, and the fewer minors on my dash, the less likely it is that I’ll accidentally do that at a minor (related: if I do that on one of your posts, PLEASE tell me so I can delete it asap).
Similarly, I recommend that minors not follow me because of posts like that. I won’t block you for being a minor, and I do have a “#horny on main” tag for provocative images and explicit text, but often times suggestive text is generally not tagged.
So, ultimately, it’s okay, but like, be forewarned that this blog is not rated G for general audiences. It’s the philosophy I had when I was in middle and highschool, and I turned out to be a bisexual, socialist, furry weeb mostly fine. To use an analogy: this museum has some stuff on the floor. I keep the caltrops and barbed wire in a separate building, and there’s warning signs around the pincushions and jacks, but there are some 4-sided dice and Legos around. It may not be wise to visit without shoes, but I won’t bar the door.
Queerphobes (including terfs) are absolutely not allowed in the museum, though. They are cordially invited to get better opinions before trying again.

⭐ - You're allowed to pick three countries to be introduced to the series. Who do you pick and why?
Okay, firstly I wanna thank you for pandering to my pleading for people to send me asks, I live for this and you’ve made my whole ass day.
But I think I would want to meet Alfred, Elizabeta, and Matthieu.
Alfred because he’s my all time favorite, a totally relatable young adult nerd whose aggressively American. I just understad all of those and I think talking to him would be easy.
Elizabeta because I relate to her feral little girl past and TMI, as a young heathen I also assumed I was a late bloomer and would— ahem— grow one. I also trust women pretty openly and feel like she’d be great if I asked questions and would be a nice host for like afternoon lunch.
I think lastly, I vibe with my personal view of Matt, which is like, a soft stoner socialist who has to deal with being the second favorite. I also know he’s a weeb in canon and have to say that I think he’d be fun to talk DBZ with lmao
cant wait to be famous and have fans going thru my tumblr to see what was i like in my early 20′s just to find out that i was a weeb a kpoppie and a socialist
