He's offered a pardon for being a military deserter and this is his reply:
Miyazaki fucking hates war.
Fuck, the entire premise of "Howl's Moving Castle" is how war turns people into literal monsters!!!
Miyazaki famously was not present to accept an award for "Spirited Away" because of George W's war policies!!!
FOR FUCKS SAKE!!!!
He also expressly stated his hatred for AI art.
Satire is truly dead, buried, dug up, smacked around a bit, shot in the face for good measure, buried, dug up again, had a shit taken on it, and buried upside-down.
It's not satire. It's overt propaganda. Problem is, it's lazy propaganda! Do you think people who truly love Ghibli would be swayed by this? Who does this appeal to? It's nonsense.
That said: let them keep doing it. Allow them to continue shootinh themselves in the foot.
I think OP meant irony. The irony that we're at a point where zionist/imperialist militaries are communicating on a nazi-owned platform using stolen AI art styles about war when the style was developed by someone vehemently against war/imperialism in their creations. The irony is palpable on each and every level.
Precisely, thank you
Sorry! I replied like 2 minutes after waking up. Understood you completely. My bad!
No worries!
Who does this appeal to?
The cheap seats. The know nothing public.
How does The Wind Rises fit into this?
Plot spoilers
I've always been a bit puzzled at that one, given that the protagonist spends most of the storyline designing and building warplanes. He's apparently motivated purely by the love of flight, but consequences are never directly addressed, except for maybe at the end when he comments on how they all got destroyed. Is he wilfully oblivious? Is he on board with Japanese aggression? Is this a comment on the "just doing my job" people involved in any war effort?
Well, Nazis do have a tendency of appropriating and mangling countless cultures to fill the void left from their humanity, I would say that extends to those who openly admit ethnic cleansing
Of fucking course the IDF jumps on the Ghibli AI bandwagon. They can't allow themselves to be neutral when they have the opportunity to be on the wrong side of something
😂 all these Nazis thinking they'd be the protagonists in a Ghibli story.
The creator of the style hates the use of AI images that mimic it's likeness and almost every bad person out there is "jumping on the bandwagon" for social media points. From the Trump admin, the IDF, and even Sam Altman and Elon Musk.
The tone deafness is...deafening. I have never been so convinced that people at large who consume this brainrot have no self-awareness, introspection, or critical thought.
Am I the only one with this problem? The images that the AI generates it doesn't resemble to Ghibli to me. They look like a hard try to "look like ghibli", but it falls in its own style.
You're saying it has no soul in that is true.
They look really washed out, like they're tinted yellow.
You're correct, it looks odd and very obviously so
They look like one kind of Ghibli character.
I'm not even that invested in Ghibli and that's radicalizing me
Making the IDF look like heroes or anything other than the monstrous savages that they are is an insult to humanity.
Lets do an IDF, CIA and RUAF collab episode next.
Is Gravestone of the Fireflies right? I couldn't finish it. Cried a river...
Grave of the fireflies. I watch it whenever I need a good cry.
Damn I should take one day to watch it. But right now I'm not having a great time to stomach it.
That's fair. It hurts more when you know the writer's story. You have to go in expecting to be destroyed.
May I offer Ponyo as the alternative (movie I watch whenever I want to feel better?)
My daughters watch Ponyo every other weekend 🤣. My confort series is Futurama.
My comfort series is Futurama!!!! When am I hanging out at your house lol
I'd invite you but I'm probably very far away. I'm Uruguayan you see.
Love from Canada!
Yeah no. Don't watch it until you're sure you can stomach it, it WILL fuck you up
Yes. Directed by Takahata who co founded Ghibli and is also very based iirc
That is so fucked up
Even in their infinite insanity, the IDF version looks like a recap of them attacking the USS Liberty.
A fascist is a thief. Fascist are the useful idiots of empire. Capitalism is a pyramid scheme filled with thieves. They will poison your fields and send you to the factory and feed you canned foods filled with poison. This is the world of the lowest common denominator and the longer you are on this ride, the sicker you will start to feel. It's like the first few hours of Disneyland is pretty nice, but once you realize you're not allowed to leave Disneyland and you have no money and you're stuck there for an eternity, well then it becomes your hell. It's a small world after all. It's a small world after all.
Better a pig than a fascist
😬
What the fuck. Is ghibli?
Japanese animation studio, responsible for very popular animated movies.
Grave of the fireflies is a very interesting ~~propaganda~~ morality piece they made
Does the movie include mass indiscriminate bombing of a civilian area and using human sheilds in ground operations?
First one, yes. Second one, no.
I cant blame them, if they depicted all of the GDFs crimes it would be rated R.
The movie opens with the fire bombing of Tokyo and ends with children starving to death so no human Shields
