I was referring to the perspective of the guide maker in the OP which I assume was making this for new viewers not people who are already weebs.
Maybe that assumption is wrong, but IMO following from it, having a white blond American woman as a soldier AND antagonist while Tanya as a child soldier giving orders and often talking down old men in the army is not something I expect anyone over 40 to enjoy, this is all far more likely to annoy older conservatives while sure 4chan loves it. Also as I said the atheist theme alone is likely a turn off, its either you stand for Nazism or you're a 4chan kid. Normie 40yo+ conservatives are probably going to have a negative reaction.
So "conservative core" is rather more like "4chan top random picks for [current year +-15]"
oh sure. i guarantee you whoever made this list was active on 4chan in 2006, and probably still is today. thus list is incredibly elder millenial/young gen x weeb. i'm a little surprised they don't have like, slayers on there
That's a good way of pointing it out. Although I extend this to older fascists as well. Normies basically fall under the base assumption that "good = fascist" and "bad = left-leaning".
If normie Amerikkkans watched Snowpiercer and liked it, they would call it a based aryan film. If they read The Turner Diaries and somehow didn't like it, they could call it woke.
