though i think there’s a solid argument to be made for most of these being conservative, even if not in ways this guy would necessarily recognize as such. name a series on this and i could find a legitimate, not a bit reason it’s reactionary. that goes triple for one piece

    The two where I can squint and see his point are Hellsing and Spy Family.

    • Hellsing’s obvious because of all the Christian imagery

    • Spy Family, is about well…starting a family. But I never thought conservatives would like it because Loid isn’t a fat abusive alcoholic like an “alpha male”.

      It’s also about found family and adoption. There’s definitely a portion of right-wingers that adopt kids, but the fascist anime fan types seem too obsessed with cum to consider “raising someone else’s child.”

      yeah, hellsing is all about conservatives killing heathens in gloriously aestheticized violence. and spy x family is being the patriarch and cold war stuff
