        Idk dawg I literally don’t care what 4chan nerds like, it does not matter to me. Makes me think of the Republican/Democrat duopoly and how all Americans view everything in that context. Ahhh the fascists like it, must be fascist!

          In your opinion, why do you think Hexbear doesn’t stan this show? Partisanship? Virtue signaling?

            I think there are like 5 nerds here who think too hard about shit like the big wall of blah blah media literacy i just got from someone else. Someone wanting to write some shit about killing goblins and isn’t really thinking too hard about it, just like the people consuming that content, that’s just beyond the realm of probability and it must be this fascist dogwhistle propaganda vehicle, lol.

            I’m getting these walls of text about how goblins are real world minorities and goblin slayer is the KKK or whatever like my brother in christ it is a goblin it is a fantasy creature it’s not like they’re fucking coded like the goblins in Harry Potter, like that’s actual use of goblins as racial allegory

            Don’t feel like you gotta write more words at me it’s pretty pointless isn’t it

              Ok, so you think a minority of posters on Hexbear are over-analyzing the show and are seeing Nazi ghosts where there are none. Ok.

              it’s not like they’re fucking coded like the goblins in Harry Potter, like that’s actual use of goblins as racial allegory

              Why do you think the goblins in Goblin Slayer aren’t coded like the goblins in Harry Potter?

                Perhaps because they are fantasy monster and in the case of goblin slayer not meant to be a racial stand in for a real life minority but instead are, you know, a fantasy monster

                    You can point to harry Potter goblins and say that they are clearly an anti semitic caricature

                    What are goblin slayer goblins meant to represent? Is there some specific ethnicity there? Ah, curious.

                    “They’re an Other!” okay so basically you don’t want any humanoid monsters involved because any Other is automatically some sanction of real world racism

                    Zzzzzzzzzzzz

                    This is a waste of both our time
