This is 100% correct. Kishida let BlackCock take root in Japan this year and they are already trying to implement their ESG scores within Japanese companies.

It's not fair. If you look into how BlackRock came to be this finanical titan it goes back to the 2008 housing crash and recession. They got rich through peoples misery and then "bailed" corporations out, bailed out in this case means keeping them in their pockets. This isn't even tinfoil hat shit, this is publically accessible information and they are open about their ESG schemes, they talk about them openly at various world economic forums. They have admitted many times that if a company has a good ESG score, they get obscene amounts of money gifted to them so even if the products they sell are poor and lose money, the company is still making bank from the BlackRock handouts. How do you think Disney etc can afford to keep release dud after dud for years, Disney aren't stupid if they were losing big bucks they would nip it in the bud and change their MO.

Kishida is a bit of an idiot but he's not anti loli/sex negative unlike a huge portion of the left (recently invaded by western type feminists) and far-far right in Japan. He had a work relationship with both Taro Yamada and Ken Akamatsu since 2017-19 back when the UN was trying to pass a resolution asking for all member states to ban sexual fictional content with characters that look underage and he basically reiterated the message these 2 and the anime industry had passed him and politely told the UN to fuck off. Legislation wise in Japan any kind of censorship has little chance of passing as long as he is up. I'm actually much more scared if all the stupid scandals the LDP has had lately could lead to a change of government to the Democratic party or for the presidency of the LDP to go to women like Sanae Takaichi (far right) or Seiko Noda (westernized center-left) both candidates in the last election and both of which supported censorship of "unhealthy manga" back in 2010-11. If that were to happen things could truly take a turn for the worse.

But you're right insofar that the traditional right (in the US Republicans, christians etc.) have been against porn forever, and have been pushing for more and more restrictions for decades now.
However, while in the past non-right porn haters existed, it's only in the last few years that an authoritarian progressive ideology developed, the so-called "woke" (which so far is mostly an exonym, but that might change). The woke are big on being anti-western (the only civilaization that doesn't murder them on sight) and anti-male, having brain farts like advocating what's basically muslim dress-codes (women got murdered for defying those) and being generally pro-censorship.
They mostly lack the power to actually push most of their anti-freedom of speech-views, but they're often anti-porn, ESPECIALLY anti-drawn porn and double-ESPECIALLY anti-manga. So they found useful allies here in the conservative right-wingers.
Especially sad that the woke basically devoured liberalism. Progressive liberals, for all their bleeding-heart faults, were generally very anti-censorship and pro-freedom of speech. Wokes are neither. Plenty of those olf Progressives now feel like right-wingers, simply because they refused to give up their views.';

Groups mostly overlap when it comes to tranny shit (including ruining kids with puberty blockers), multiculturalism and representation.

Ignore the retards who say credit card companies are woke. They're policing porn because Pornhub fucked up a few years ago with keeping childporn on their site.

They didn't.
It got removed as soon as it got reported, but it took a while to actually get reported.
IIRC the girl was in her teens already, so people likely gave it the benefit of a doubt instead of smashing that report button.
Shit like that happens, but the anti-porn crusaders managed to convince a judge that credit card companies and pornhub are guilty of profitting from child porn (the ads, you see). This is a dangerous reasoning.';

'Adding to the Credit Card Companies do it because they're woke/right-wing/porn causes financial trouble":
probably all of that. There's likely plenty of neo-progressives and old-style-conservatives in leadership and management positions that only agree that pron is bad, add frequent refunds to this, as well as clueless managers who just want to look good and you have the perfect storm.
The real problems are that they're so powerful and that they're allowed to do this in the first place.';

'But honestly, why are wokes so bloody obsessed with child porn? Seriously, not even the christards spend so much time screetching (and it's always screetching) about how all anime characters are literal real life babies and you are all pedomobiles and molstors for liking it.

'>>7980699
Yes, some prominent figures, but surely not all those jumping on the bandwagon.
It honestly feels like a cultural thing. American are really weird about this, you probably saw some scene in an american movie or cartoon were one character goes "Wow, she's hot!" and some other "Dude, she's 17!" and the first character acts like he just got accidently sucked of by his grandma or something.
This is, frankly, not normal behaviour.
I know that America is culturally hostile to sex in general, but this is kinda new and feels so strange and faked.
The Age of Consent is treated like a literal divine wall that separates toddlers with no sex drive from adults with all the rights. And online it spread to people being hostile to anime and manga, since most characters there tend to be in their teens.
You also get weird shit, like a girl insisting she got groomed as and underaged, she was 24 or so, but described herself as mentally underage, whatever that means.';

'>>7980762
And that wokes are really rapid about this is especially strange considering the left used to be more sex-positive. I don't think there's some larger goal or conspiracy behind this, it likely has it's origin in the beginnings of what we know as "woke" in the mid 2010s (yes, the term is older, but has lost it's old meanings), which got influenced by Gamergate and MeToo. It's now one of the boxes you have to check to be accepted by the crowd.
Just weird, and so bloody random. And I can't even talk anywhere but here about this, because of the stigma attached to it (oh, you just want to bang children! SCREEEEE!).';

'>>7980762
I think it's just the culmination of years and years of the media propagandizing shame in those areas. It's no different from how Americans treat race differences, like it somehow makes you a hateful bigot to simply recognize the fact that Asians have different eyelids or that black people can't absorb as much vitamin D naturally. The more they heap the shame on, the less people want to be associated with it, which consistently moves the goalposts away from the reasonable and towards the insane and out of touch with reality.';

They could make a dent into the content by getting "Loli" and "Rape" as terms to be blocked.

The problem starts coming in when you have to start applying the west's pretty standardized 18+ rules to years worth of content where age 13 was the age of consent and age 20 is when you were considered an adult. The schoolgirl going on compensated dates with old men, the cheeky artist drawing the 17 year old getting her top pulled off by a mischievous friend, the heartwarming story of how a boy and his tomboy girlfriend grew closer and started fucking in middle school and now they're looking back at an old picture remembering those times.

Directly using assets was never the problem or issue. You're confusing independent, pornographic derivative works (Which qualify as parody for the most part in the US, and are a grey area for Japan depending on the license holder) with "I have stolen your PNG and put it into my game", which isn't defended...anywhere on the planet.

The name makes you think it is some right wing thing, but it's pretty much balls deep in DEI and what not. Look up the site if you don't believe me, this is globalism my guys.

Project 2025 is what the conservative side is selling for their anti-porn monitoring campaign promises. (All porn bad, public health crisis that people are masturbating, stop teaching about contraception because sex should have consequences.) The liberal goals of removing non-consensual content >>7968618 is easy to agree with because it removes any availability of porn, which is the overall conservative goal.

Japanese content is being disproportionately affected because from a legal standpoint they have exceptions for drawn characters as long as they still follow the other censorship rules (mosaic censored genitalia)';

'>>8011905
Agree that this is bipartisan, and more palatable to liberals, disagree that it's only about consent. Feminism, despite the no-true-scotsman egalitarian shit many feminists espouse, has been de facto anti-male for decades now and demonizing primarily heterosexual male sexuality so any content that straight men like is haram to them now. Just look how many people care that you sexually harass men in otome games that are on both Sony and Nintendo consoles. In Tokimemo Girl's Side on the Switch (and previously on the DS), you can play touching minigames that make them moan and say really suggestive shit. Women love this and giggle about chaining these guys up in their sex dungeons. Go check out any place these girls hang out online. The games also let you marry your teacher and presumably have his babies. You're probably 16 at the start of the game but you can touch older men sexually anyway. You don't get a confession or kiss until you graduate, though. In my opinion, this is all great, I'm not knocking it at all. But it's absolutely a double standard that you can have this kind of content for straight women but as soon as you try to bring over Fire Emblem Fates you have to gut out the just as tame/lewd (depending on how prude you are) touching minigame as what TMGS has, because then straight guys would be equally able to enjoy sexy fanservice. Can't have that. It's why Senran Kagura games are dead too, Sony of Commiefornia wouldn't allow anything so sexually suggestive in JP games because they want people to play western shit with ugly women and gratuitous gay scenes instead. If they weren't clearly trying to piss on straight men, they could just go make games for gay men, but instead gay men have fuck all to play. Same with lesbians. Instead of making content for people they like, they target people they don't like and try to shit it up for them. Probably the reason almost all of my collection is hentai for straight men despite also liking dudes.';

Here's also something I wish more people might want to think about and consider:

Companies, publishers, developers, IP holders and Estates that hold the rights of certain IPs or media. Can basically sumbong (tattletale or report in Filipino, sorry I wanted to bring that up) to the mods or admins of Patreon, Gumroad and Skeb AND the payment processors of "problematic" R34 artists making porn of their IPs and properties as potential sexual crimes bullshit? I do remember the root cause of the clampdown by the payment processor originated 2 or 3 years ago when OnlyFans and Pornhub hosted Cheese Pizza and actual videos of sexual violence and rapes, which then caused PayPal, Mastercard and Visa (the payment processors) to bail out of OnlyFans and or Pornhub for not wanting to be associated with actual sex crimes. To which then OnlyFans and Pornhub had to readjust their policies and try being more "safe for work" to appease the payment processors and also not get legally assfucked by Federal Law.

This then caused Patreon, Skeb, Pixiv, Gumroad and all the other art sites to also revaluate their policies and even tone down how much NSFW and porn they will allow in fear of also having the payment processors bail out on them. So now that turmoil can be utilized by the corpos, publishers and devs and all the IP holders and Estates who are not pleased with the countless amounts of porn of their property and media they own.';

'>>8014720
And even worse, all that censorship and nsfw crackdowns can be weaponized and utilized by individual normal sfw artists and other independent smaller time creators to target nsfw artists who made porn of their OCs, series and other works. To which they despise and hate because of it.

Because additionally back then, when corpos, publishers and any individual/independent SFW artists or creators see porn and general R34 of their characters, settings and works. They'd request or outright demand the porn and R34 be taken down and deleted or face legal consequences and troubles. Thing is neither the corpos or smaller individual artists who dislike or hate R34 of their OCs and series on the receiving end of some retards or NSFW artists' petty bullshit weren't able to do squat. Simple because there were no existing or technical laws or rules they could use against the nsfw R34 artists or horny retards they despise. Though the corpos and publishers (and maybe even the certain Estates) can use their legions of lawyers and legal teams to issue DMCAs and Cease and Desists against individual nsfw R34 artists in isolated and individual cases. While some individual and independent sfw vanilla artists and creators are rich and wealthy enough to also afford Lawsuits against the nsfw R34 artists they don't like. But even then lawsuits are expensive and the corpos, publishers and other artists avoided it altogether to avoid incurring the Steissand Effect.

But the recent changes spearheaded by the payment processors and even bigger and powerful corpos eliminate the need altogether to do so, though it could certainly go for the kill or add insult injury, on top of all the other damage, both corpos and SFW artists could do.';

'>>8014721
In other words, it's not only the big giant corpos, publishers, IP holders and Estates you have to worry about. The smaller time individual and independent sfw non-porno artists and creators are joining in and or weaponizing the ongoing NSFW crackdowns. All because some of the individual independent artists and creators out there simply dislike or hate that R34 of their sfw non-porno vanilla OCs and ongoing stories exists and that nsfw artists and horny retards make such things of their work. And back then, sfw vanilla artists and creators had no little to no choice but accept the fact that rule 34 exists and will be made of their OCs and settings. Much to their chagrin, whether they like it or not.

But now these days, thanks to the corpos, publishers and payment processors spearheading the nsfw and porn crackdowns. The seething individual sfw artists and creators can now tattletale to the payment processors, in which this and that nsfw R34 artist has made porn of their vanilla sfw OCs and series and they're possible badmen who harbor and make Cheese Pizza. To which they payment processors will tell the mods and admins of Patreon, Skeb, Pixiv, Gumroad, etc. to then effectively Shadow Ban the nsfw R34 artists, denying them of the payment and profits made from their horny art and commissions. (Because all of this porn purge also serves as Shadow Banning certain individuals, artists and creators that the corpos, publishers and other certain sfw vanilla artists do not like, right)

What a sad timeline we live. Let us pray and wish companies, publishers, sfw vanilla artists and IP holders or estates that hold the rights of certain IPs or media. D not come together to create a new definitive legal law that makes ANY fan made nsfw of copyright material and other IPs now illegal and criminalized because porn and R34 bad.

This might just be tinfoil hat tier conspiracy theory crafting. But think about it, this may or may not be a concerning factor in the future.';

I've seen this theory before. I don't know how true it is alone. Another factor maybe. I know there are people out there that think rule 34 is morally wrong on the basis of kids coming across it or being groomed and shit, and there is a heavy push right now for national and state governments to mandate age verification for access to porn. So yeah, there may be a wider "hermeneutics of pedophile suspicion" (instead of gay suspicion) thing going on here at play as well, particularly in America. Every year people get more and more paranoid of kids being molested or groomed online (even just playing video games with a minor is now a red flag to people, or adult men around kids even if he's a father) and take more and more rights away from kids and even teenagers "to keep them safe" and try to take helicopter parenting to insane extremes and even push against other parents that disagree with them, like wanting it to be neglect to let your kids play outside, walk places, and take the bus/train unsupervised. I would hate to be a kid right now, I'm glad I got to use the internet anonymously and unsupervised growing up. Wish I was allowed to leave the house to play with other kids though, the paranoia was real even 20 years ago.

I have been wondering about other possible reasons though, so I appreciate takes like that and the one about payment processor liability. I thought of some others.

One is how much money is being spent on JP media, if there is a financial factor. Are we hemorrhaging some percent of our money because American media is boring as shit right now and JP media is growing in popularity? I can't imagine this, as I still consume far more weebshit than anyone I know, even other weebs. I still hear people talking about Netflix shows and whatever movies are coming out. But a lot of fans of JP media tend to be less outgoing and more reclusive, or they hide their power level so you wouldn't know if they spend thousands per year on weebshit.';

Then there is the matter of whether or not we are experiencing birth rate problems or mass death of old people impacting population/demographics. Is there a crisis looming that I'm not aware of and the powers that be are conspiring to try and raise birth rates? Banning abortion, contraception, porn, and sterilization (including transsexuals) would certainly do that just because policies work. Not everyone will go around the law, probably a majority won't. I've definitely seen lots of young people so deathly afraid of environmental fearmongering that they go full antinatalist "how could you birth a child into this world," same thing with COVID doomsday crazies. Even seen young people not wanting to have children with people that took the jab. Japan already has birth rate issues, and many have speculated about waifuism being the issue, so I wonder if Japanese content and things like AI girlfriends and the hypothetical for now AI robot sex dolls that are clearly coming in the future could be scaring them into action there, in addition to the usual "porn bad" or "the sex dolls almost always look too young" concerns most people parrot.

I'm sure there is also an element of "almost all adult men and over half of women consume porn, and if we require ID then anonymity is dead" because people will generally take the path of least resistance (although you can fap without porn or just make/share your own). I don't know if it would be much of an impact since most people already are deanonymized by now. And obviously that sort of thing helps to shame people away from porn for those that have a religious issue with it, or for corrupt politicians it enables blackmail of people that previously could have gotten away with only an IPv4 address.

It's difficult to know which of these are intended and which aren't.';
