Does anyone else hate the "Its just kids show bro!" argument when discussing a show's flaws? Avatar was a kids show yet treated it's audience with respect. Hell, even Korra did a better job than shows like pic related.

Why do people still jump to say this in the current year?
>>
I don't know, I just read comics

>>81175395
Because you need to remember that those shows are aired on networks whose main demographic are children.

Being a kids show affects tone and content not uality. That being said it does have to be simple. Having a dozen non-sequential episodes or something would confuse kids.

I dunno, he's not really being dismissive at all. He even said he enjoyed the critique. If you don't like the musical numbers in SU though, it's pretty logical that you'd be better off watching something else. No need to watch something you don't enjoy.

>>81175558
The critique was more about how the song made the who part of the episode tension-less. Also the fight looked like shit.

Because it's made for children and autistic 19 year olds like yourself take it too seriously. just like bronies people see you sperging over little kid shows and feel the need to remind your poor soul that you're making mountains outta mole hills.

Some girl on tumblr drew a SU character slightly (i.e. not noticeable unless you're a landwhale and thus get triggered by such things) less fat than the actual canon art. So she got bullied by Tumblr for a while, to the point where some people started doxxing her and harrassing her IRL until she attempted suicide.

Then some random person on Tumblr reported some of the people involved to the police, which lead to this, as well as some 25 year old basement dweller going on an insane tirade about how he got arrested because of it and his parents had to bail him out of jail.

>"I hate when people say it's just a kids show!"

Well.

That's because it is.

Ian isn't saying it's okay that it's bad because it's a kid's show. He's just saying the critique is looking at it as if SU is a completely different genre from what he's complaining about. It'd be as if he was watching a western and said, "Fuck, these people are on horses way too much, where the fuck are all the sports cars?" or watching a film about Jesus and complaining about the religious undertones.
>>
>>81175395
depends on the judgements
critique like "this is poorly animated/drawn, this doesn't mesh with the writing established, etc" makes sense
critique like "this comedy kids show isn't as dark as I want" isn't
>>
>>81176314
Already did, when it was posted here in the past. Bet you anything that Ian found it here as well

>>81176332
Just because its a musical, doesn't mean every number in the show gets a pass. Some of them in this show are garbage.

>>81175616
This is kind of very personal and not scared by most people. Its obvious that the writters were aiming t other thing, it its ok to not like it.

>>81176368
Okay but that has nothing to do with what I was saying. Unless you're implying Stronger Than You was one of those numbers which I hope you aren't.
>>
>>81176368
The critique was that it was not serious enough or something.
>>
>>81175395
I always find the "It's for kids" shit funny because people usually think about kids 6 and under when they say that shit but children 7 to 12 who watch cartoons do notice stupid shit or the weirdest inconsistencies in a cartoon show.

Especially if they see a cartoon that's better written and has good animation and then they watch another one that's shittier, they'll notice.

Still I have to agree with ian, a critique on SU is good but 20 pages just screams "dude, move on"

>>81176146
People who think they are morally superior to everyone who can't interact with others IRL and are stuck on their comp 24/7 tend to be bonkers.

I come from the era of shit 90's internet and the dramas were there in forums but I am glad it wasn't this bad when I was a kid.

It's like getting mad that Blues Clues wasn't more mature.

It is. Stronger than You is only held together by Estelle. The song composition and the lyrics are fuckawful. Which is funny because the song directly after it in the next episode does a better job of being catchy and fits better with the tone of the scene.

Ian isn't even saying "its just a kids show". Hes pretty much saying, "maybe this show isnt for you.

Avatar is clearly the exception.

I thought the fight looked pretty damn solid, but that's subjective.

The fight still had tension. The struggle against a force that hated her very existence was still there and still expressed clearly. It just wasn't the kind of tension the guy writing the critique was looking for. It was only partially about Garnet's direct conflict with Jasper. It was about the resolution of Garnet being broken apart as well as a validation of her existence. The song conveyed how truly powerful and "in-step" Garnet is: Singing and mocking her opponent in a cocksure tone while matching her every step of the way. It was both an act of defiance and a celebration of herself. It was pretty poignant. Not only that, but it was poignant a way that a more generic knock-down drag-out shounen/superhero/summer blockbuster style fight wouldn't have been.

Plus, the real dramatic climax of the episode was what happened immediately afterwards.

He isnt using it as an excuse for poor quality and most creators dont. But fandoms are tiptop cancer and hyper analyze every scrap of content like retards for a show that isnt going to explain technical shit. There was a thread discussing how the fucking hand ship from homeworld works. Its ridiculous how seriously people on this board and in fandoms in general take shows when they are aimed at an entirely different audience
>>
Just so you guys know, the critique in question was written way back when reformed aired. A lot of the flaws he points out in his resume arent even relevant anymore.
>>
>>81176638
Yeah, but there's some meaning to having a certain age range.

That age range is their expected audience and who they're designing the show to please the most.

Pleasing the adults is not as important to them.

>>81176725
Why are you complaining about autistic things on a site made for autists bro :^)
>>
>>81176036
...is what people like to say to make their bullying, bigotry and death threats look good by comparison.

What actually happened is that someone drew fanart of Rose which was thinner and closer to a "standard" sexy female body than the character actually is, and people criticized that for complicated reasons involving nonstandard beauty and the like. For unrelated reasons, mostly about non-internet matters, the artist was very depressed and troubled.

The War on Justice, being their usual psychotically evil selves, likes to rewrite this into "she killed herself because of cyberbullying" because it fits their political narrative. No, that narrative isn't "cyberbullying is bad"; in fact, the people who parade it around would aggressively laugh off the concept of bullying in any other context. No, the point they want to prove is either "liking this show makes you a subhuman Nazi who is guilty by association of word-murder" or "having this social justice viewpoint makes you a subhuman Nazi wurderer"; which they took the opportunity to illustrate by sending a flurry of bullying, death threats, and other harassment at anyone who's on the wrong side of their politics.

A sane person would notice that the thing they're using this incident to justify is the exact thing they love to do themselves. But if they were sane, they wouldn't be the War on Justice.

Cartoons were more universally accepted for all ages A LONG TIME AGO. 2016 has nothing to do with shit you dumb fucking moron.

SU is a children's show. It's not complex. It's goofy. It's got "randumb" humor, the protagonist is a fat annoying child.

A child's show has to be looked at differently when it's given to all the tropes of babies shows.

It really is telling how little you know about the entertainment business. Studios always find ways to maximize their audiences. Unless it's a niche network like Discovery Kids, it's in the network's interest that the show attracts as many people as it can.

There's nothing unclear about it, but I'll simplify it.

The incident, which is actually a distorted fabrication, is treated as an atrocity because someone was cyber-bullied over politics. The people exploiting it would normally dismiss cyberbullying as something that isn't even a thing, but now it's suddenly convenient for them to acknowledge that words can hurt people.

Now that they've acknowledge this, instead of accepting the harmful nature of cyberbullying, they choose to engage in even more of it than they already did, using the political issues of the incident as an excuse. This ignores the fact that the political issues had nothing to do with any of the actual problems they have with it, nor did the incident establish anything wrong with the viewpoint they're attacking.

To further shorten it, the War on Justice is demonizing their political enemies in a certain way in order to justify doing the same evil deeds they try to associate with others. This isn't surprising, since it's what they always do.

You're referring to a number of abstractions ("the incident", "the problems", "the political issues", "the viewpoint", "their political enemies") without any points of reference.

No, that's YOUR entire argument. You and the people marching in lockstep alongside you aren't taking a single step against bullying, or against threats, or against harassment.

Welcome to the Brave New World. This is the new norm for non-anonymous online interactions. Anyone who doesn't kowtow to the ever-increasingly-more-absurd PC culture gets their life destroyed.

I remember a story last year about a webcomic artist, I think the one who does Ava's Demon, getting online harassment, threats, and even having her website hacked and DDOSed because some tumblr special snowflake threw a shit fit over one character joking that another character was a virgin because "that kind of disgusting language is offensive to persons self-identifying as aesexual yadda yadda yadda".

IIRC the artist deleted all their shit off tumblr, ended up having to pay a couple thousand bucks for the server overage, and had to switch hosts.
>>
>>81176825
>What actually happened is that someone drew fanart of Rose which was thinner and closer to a "standard" sexy female body than the character actually is, and people criticized that for complicated reasons involving nonstandard beauty and the like. For unrelated reasons, mostly about non-internet matters, the artist was very depressed and troubled.
That is complete bullshit, stop trying to rewrite the past you idiot.

I'm saying that none of the people you try to bully into suicide for saying the wrong thing "deserved it", and your fabricated controversy does absolutely nothing to change that.

Nor does it do anything to dehumanize the people it's meant to dehumanize, because it is never, EVER used to show that cyberbullying is harmful, only as "proof" that people who have (insert opinion here) or acknowledge (insert fact here) are evil subhumans who should be cyberbullied into suicide.

Because the actual Rose Quartz has a nonstandard body type but is still portrayed attractively. If one replaces her with a more conventionally attractive version, then it could be seen as confining standards of beauty to an overly specific framework.

Notice the complete lack of death threats in the above paragraph. Despite this clearly noticeable feature, some people will call me a subhuman monster just for typing it, because of guilt by association. This is the entire reason people are drumming up controversy over the incident: not to stop bullying, but to stamp out perspectives.

just like no one is stopping anyone from playing an E rated videogame, because its rated E for everyone.

if you target a young demographic, that leaves breathing room for a wider audience with less backlash. a show doesnt have to be mature and serious to be enjoyable to adults.

Actually the opposite of that. People who DO want to drive other people off the face of the planet for expressing social justice viewpoints are the War on Justice. Because the social justice viewpoints are what they actually target, not the evil bullying that they falsely accuse them of while shamelessly using themselves.

>>telling said person they deserve all the shit flung at them is fighting the "war" on "justice"
Yes, telling someone that they're subhuman and deserve to die for having the wrong opinion could be metaphorically compared to waging war.

>>suggesting content creators abiding by your own personal set of rules when creating content, there by violating the first god damn amendment
The first amendment doesn't forbid people from disagreeing with others' expression, nor does it forbid people from thinking about how they express themselves or how their speech affects others. It's doubly hypocritical in this context because pretty much all the rage and hate in the War on Justice is directed at forms of speech; even their own strawmen tend to involve accusing others of being mean or expressing themselves in the wrong way. Unless the "goddamn" amendments are something different from the actual Constitutional amendments, they aren't doing you any favors.

Read his essays. He can be frighteningly accurate sometimes. This one is my all time favorite quote from him:

>Nearly all western thought since the last war, certainly all “progressive” thought, has assumed tacitly that human beings desire nothing beyond ease, security and avoidance of pain. In such a view of life there is no room, for instance, for patriotism and the military virtues. The Socialist who finds his children playing with soldiers is usually upset, but he is never able to think of a substitute for the tin soldiers; tin pacifists somehow won’t do. Hitler, because in his own joyless mind he feels it with exceptional strength, knows that human beings don’t only want comfort, safety, short working-hours, hygiene, birth-control and, in general, common sense; they also, at least intermittently, want struggle and self-sacrifice, not to mention drums, flags and loyalty-parades. However they may be as economic theories, Fascism and Nazism are psychologically far sounder than any hedonistic conception of life. The same is probably true of Stalin’s militarised version of Socialism. All three of the great dictators have enhanced their power by imposing intolerable burdens on their peoples. Whereas Socialism, and even capitalism in a more grudging way, have said to people “I offer you a good time,” Hitler has said to them “I offer you struggle, danger and death,” and as a result a whole nation flings itself at his feet.

Neither side of that entirely arbitrary border is really sane or devoid of shitty practices (includiing cyber-bullying), pretending otherwise spits in the face of facts.

The quesiton of whether art should be criticized or we should pretend it exists in a vacuum isn't the main issue. The point is that the viewpoint itself isn't a death threat, but the WoJ wants to bully it into oblivion as it if was. They don't want to stop actual bullying.

ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS

here is a constructive criticism: "hey, i like what you did with the coloring in this piece, but it's off model."

calling people cis scum and that they should die for "fat shaming" you is NOT CRITICISM

thats being an unrepenting asshole

Alternatively, I could be a person who's calling out a group psychotic hypocrites on their psychotic hypocrisy. This doesn't automatically make me part of the vividly specific category you're trying to lump me into.

Wrong. That IS the main issue we're arguing.

>The point is that the viewpoint itself isn't a death threat, but the WoJ wants to bully it into oblivion as it if was. They don't want to stop actual bullying.
You keep going back to "bullying" as it is somehow the core issue at stake. Take the hint: it's not. Bullying is a collateral effect that, as you have probably figured out (I hope), gets practiced by the radical voices in either side. Stop going on a tangent.

Nobody here has made any sort of death threat. And, being this an Anonymous image board, is an utterly pointless practice. Unless, of course, you have a pathetically thin skin.

Are you? You're the ones trying to equate the two. Obviously expressing a certain viewpoint and bullying someone into suicide aren't even remotely the same thing, even if they actually did happen together at some point in time, but people viciously and self-righteously attack the former as if it were the latter, while engaging in the latter themselves.

What you're accusing me of is the opposite of what I'm doing.

>>81179240
>The first amendment doesn't forbid people from disagreeing with others' expression, nor does it forbid people from thinking about how they express themselves or how their speech affects others. It's doubly hypocritical in this context because pretty much all the rage and hate in the War on Justice is directed at forms of speech; even their own strawmen tend to involve accusing others of being mean or expressing themselves in the wrong way.

The SJW movement is literally strong-arming content creators into creating content by their own set of rules. They do this via loud discourse over the internet, using that as leverage to get into positions of influence, and then enforcing those rules by bullying or firing anyone that doesn't follow these rules. It's not a de jure violation of the first amendment, but it sure is a de facto violation.

>>81179814
>You keep going back to "bullying" as it is somehow the core issue at stake.
It is and always has been. It's both the favored strawman and favored tactic of people who want to silence the viewpoint they hate, and that is the issue at hand. The validity of the viewpoint itself is an entirely distinct issue, that some people would rather equate to bullying and death threats than actually discuss.

But they were literally the same thing, since those that expressed those viewpoints also bullied someone into suicide you sophist.

I really doubt you could be that, you don't seem to be too good at noticing hypocrisy. Because you know, a hypocrite calling other hypocrites is a bit hypocritical.
Your whole argument is that people should be able to express themselves without being bullied. I think we all agree on that, be it fanart or criticism thereof. Problem here is that you're defending people who bully others for expressing themselves "wrongly" through fanart, simply because those bullies have been then bullied themselves.
The fact that they were bullied doesn't make their previous bullying legitimate, two wrongs don't make a right. Nobody here is arguing that cyber-bullies should be harrassed.

>This doesn't automatically make me part of the vividly specific category you're trying to lump me into.
What? There's nothing arbitrary here, you lumped yourself into the ennemies of "the War on Justice". You put yourself in a stupidly specific yet ill-defined category that literally nobody ITT identifies with or against, I didn't do that, you did.
>>
>>81179979
>But they were literally the same thing, since those that expressed those viewpoints also bullied someone into suicide you sophist.
Even if that were actually what happened, it wouldn't make them the same thing. Attacking someone with a political motive doesn't make the political motive an attack in and of itself. It's entirely possible for someone to express the viewpoint in a completely different context, which is not guilty by association of being an "attack".

except no one was simply "expressing a viewpoint".

they were at best harassing the artist, and were indeed telling them to kill themselves.

so im telling YOU that you are making them out to be the same thing. YOU are DEFENDING online harassment.

at worst, you can just say "its shit." that is objective, and therefore is a critisim. saying "this offends me" is not objective, but subjective and is no longer professional criticism. it's telling the artist to change THEIR own work that THEY made for THEMSELVES.

tldr (which im sure you didnt): basically this >>81179979

please either understand that what you sjw's did to the artist in your "super real fight" against the "super duper cereal war on justice" was a scumbag thing to do or else do what is pic related.

you are fucking outnumbered here

No, the problem is that you're pretending I'm doing that, which is just more guilt by association. I'm only calling out the hypocrites who use the bullying to excuse their own.

But that's the issue. There's nothing wrong with expressing strong discencing viewpoints, there's something wrong when you use bullying to silence opposing viewpoints.
Like there's nothing wrong with praying to whatever deity you like, but if it means you need human sacrifice, then it's an issue. The issue here is not that religions exist, it's that some people take it to unsavory extremes.

Whether it's used by both sides is irrelevant here, we aren't trying to assign blame to one side over the other.

Look at this thread.
Obviously what those people who harassed that girl did was very despicable, and they deserve to get fucked however they get fucked.
But for some reason a lot of people are just posting about how much they hate fat people which has nothing to do with this.
Were the people that bullied the girl fat? Possibly, even probably, but lots of fat people would never do anything like that.
Same goes for people who support body positivity or whatever. Even if some of them engaged in this bad thing does not mean all of them are shitty

do you have any evidence that there was even ONE person who did not jump down the artist's throat?

Nobody? Ever? At any time in the future?

That's not the case. It's entirely possible for someone to "simply express a viewpoint" without being a bully, even if it somewhat resembles that of an imaginary bully.

For example, someone could say "this art could support harmful body image issues" without attacking the artist, and if someone called them a bully because of guilt by association, that would be incorrect.
>>
>>81179928
>It is and always has been.
No, it isn't. Only a minority of people in this discussion care about that, as they acknowledge that it is a problem practiced by BOTH sides (a known fact you consistently deny with sophistic arguments). As you can see in the collection posted on >>81178648, you can see that it is NOT a strawman.

>The validity of the viewpoint itself is an entirely distinct issue, that some people would rather equate to bullying and death threats than actually discuss.
Enough with your tangent. Why are you so obsessed with that thing, rather than debate your points of view in the open?

Also, enough with your "guilt by association" thing as well. You sound like a broken record.

Did you miswrite that question? Because it sounds like you're admitting you jumped down the artist's throat since I can't prove you didn't.

>>81180102
>This is theoretically true but not really.
No, it's really true. A strawman doesn't taint an otherwise valid idea by association.

But that's what you're fucking doing. You're the one defending bullies here, nobody else is.

Literally nobody, LITERALLY NOBODY ITT is arguing that it's okay to bully someone because they're bullies themselves.
You just accuse people of having secondary motivations for disagreeing with you (i.e. they are bullies themselves) because you think it makes your argument stronger. That's just low level bulverism.

One person, period? In all of existence? I'd say that's statistically likely.

And hypothetically, if the happened to share an opinion with one of the people who DID bully the artist, then their opinion would deserve to be judged on its own merits, not by the actions of others who held it (or something vaguely like it).
