Yeah, don't worry, my post was not directed to someone I believe. It's more of a general statement that fan tend to make about One Piece. Also something to note is that most fan here never lived with an asian culture. Which is why we feel that Oda is borrowing a lot from Naruto here and other...

And you must be Freddie Mercury. Nice to meet you, love your work!

You don't what materialism means. Step aside. Lmao

I do not consider myself a full marxist either.

Disagreeing with your vision of the world and saying that you don't understand something ? Do you want me to agree with you and say to you that I'm fine with the stuff you guys are saying even when I know from a fact AND experience that it is mostly not the case? Sorry, not happening. Not...

I always oppose a set of continuum of vision of the world, not specific ideas. (ex: the far right continuum) A continuum of ideas means that one idea is always linked to another set of value which is linked to another set of value, which can all form a continuum with bigger sets of value inside...

I know. And there can only be one right side here. So which is it? And how do we make sure of that without using our political biases?

Not really. One Piece is simply very big, so you will see the reference and influence much more. Perhaps Oda doesn't shy away as much as other to show that he is paying hommage or use an influence. But all these references and influences mixed together form of coherent all. This is why its not...

What is funny is that people believe Luffy to be a chosen one, but again, let me repeat what I said a year or so ago: Luffy is not a "chosen one", he is "one who was chosen by circoumstances" Luffy just happens to have ONE specific traits in common with ancient history : His D. name. That's...

Everystory is ripping others stories, without this principle, there is no story. It's the principle of influence an creativity. The nuance comes in the fact that good stories are usually using the reference with mindfullness. Which is exactly what Oda does. He uses the references he grew up and...

People here never understood chapter 99 it seems. I have a news for you... you are not gonna like it...

To be fair, I have seen Solis and Okamakama do a fair share of self reflecting and I believe my fellow leftists had to reflect on their own biases to understand what they currently do.. The rest? I have seen absolutely 0 political or ethical evolution. I'm still seeing the same argument from...

I mean. It's a simple observation based on what people here are showing. I don't know their private life beyond that point. :goyea:

Not yet Yup Yup In motion :) Of course, dozens of times, but it was a long time ago. The fact of living this era again is very cool Ironically. Yes.

So the question "do you have a job yet?" is not that great and the better question would rather be "Did you reach any of your life goals yet?" or even better : "do you managed to find happyness?" Perhaps you would see your life and the world differently throught a non capitalistic and...

Is having a job the end goal of your vision of the world? Then you are not ready :)

You don't get it. There are things in politics people can have different opinions on. But these usually are questions on which we do not have a definitive answer. For example, what is the best way to establish a socialist society if we can ? I could tell you that it is communism, or anarchism...

Careful.. It's a continuum. Conspiracy theorism is something people do not go volontarilly to. Discernment is a learned skill. I know from experience that most people HERE lack that exact same discernment as conspiracy theorists. There is not the conspi on one side and us on the other, it's a...

Simple political alignment yes. Nothing complicated to understand. If you do not understand the situation correctely, you won't have the proper tools to fight it.

You don't get it. Mélenchon is a soc-dem. To the right of Mitterand who was really not that leftist. The guy talks about France like a colonist, really.. he is absolutely not far leftist. Just too leftist for the political paradigm at the moment since everyone displaced too far to the right...
