I disagree since the stigma comes from people who think anyone with an anime pic is automatically racist - which isn’t true, especially since I’ve seen a lot of anime pfps who are normal online. This whole “anime pfp bad” nonsense stems from the anime fandom - especially K-On - somehow being a magnet for the far-right and antisemites of all people. One theory I have is that anime fits well with their reactionary vision of the world similar to 40k.

    I agree, the stigma is nonsensical and almost as bad as Nazi style stereotypical thinking of “le anime degeneracy”.

    Anime horseshoe theory, rabid weebs and rabid antiweebs are incredibly similar.
