Bill O'Reilly, from Fox News came out with a counter argument on his blog titled, "I Hate Anime and so Does America," claiming that, "anime is not real. Anime is for stay-at-home-losers that don't appropriate real American made cartoons." He also said, "Anime is Japanese propaganda, it does not belong on American TV screens. Anime will destroy America and turn our kids into freaks of nature while ruining American culture. Kids today are being brainwashed into thinking that it is socially acceptable to say things like, 'Kawaii', and 'Senpai', when it clearly isn't. We need to protect American youth. Keep your children away from anime, or they'll end up unemployed, overweight, and living in your basement, with their body pillow girlfriends eating nothing but ramen noodles and sushi while discussing popular anime topics on Reddit's anime section" O'Reilly then goes on to talk about how memes will be the downfall of the Reddit community, and it's all Obama's fault.
My fellow Americans, don't be afraid to express your passion for anime. Anime is real, and so is your body pillow waifu. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
UPDATE:
O'Reilly declares war on anime as of April 6th, 2015!
The amount of satirical topics you have on your blog makes me want to come back everyday to see what you will post next. Though I try to make an attempt at making my blog funny, the sincerity of this post specifically adds a more personal kick to something that some people might think would be lame. KEEP THIS UP PLEASE!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty great.
ReplyDeleteI found the fact that Obama actually gave some sort of response to what Bill said extremely funny and considering it has to do with anime makes it just better. Honestly i think Bill spoke for himself and some others when he said "America hates anime" but none the less it was pretty low.
