The UN's Attempts to Control Anime: The Battle Against Cultural Hegemony in Media

In this episode, we delve into the persistent high quality of Japanese artistic endeavors, the influence of Western DEI initiatives on American and European companies, and how these factors contribute to the success or failure of media and gaming studios. We highlight the successes from Japan and China, the pitfalls of 'woke' culture on large organizations, and the implications of bureaucratic bloat on creativity. We also discuss the impact of UN initiatives on Japanese media, particularly anime and manga, and explore broader cultural tensions around gender roles, ethnic stereotypes, and the future of media production in a world increasingly influenced by AI. Additionally, we touch on the concept of teaching children about responsibility, financial independence, and the realities of the modern economy.

Malcolm Collins: [00:00:00] Hello, Simone. Today we are going to be talking about a interesting phenomenon, which is one, the persistent high quality of Japanese artistic endeavors as well as, The persistent efforts of the West to inject their companies and successful in some instances with D.

E. I. With the urban monoculture with woke ism and destroying those companies in the process we have seen, you know, throughout the course of this year, if we look at the disastrous dragon age veil card Assassin's Creed shadows..

It's encore, another major development project in the U S.

And for what I hear, things are looking good for a vowed.

And all of them are flopping. And then we get these huge successes both out of Japan and China. So like, I think blackness Wukong is out of China. We had a big success from Japan. I can't remember.

Yeah, the ones I was thinking of were games like Dragon's dogma to.

Final fantasy. Helldivers two,

frost punk [00:01:00] too.

And monster hunter wilds.

We had from like, I want to say Eastern European studio.

We had Helldivers. We had you've Helldivers? Was that a Japan? No, Helldivers was Eastern Europe. Okay. But even some Eastern European studios are getting corrupt. Like when they get too big, like, When any

Simone Collins: organization gets too big. Project Lead

Malcolm Collins: or whatever it's called, the one that developed the Witcher and like a lot of good games, they've become super infected with woke ism.

And they're now you know, like, oh, you see it in all this stuff. And it's correlated with the downfall of their studio and inability to make good products. Which I think we're increasingly seeing the bureaucratic bloat was in their studio was, which is that they adapted all this stuff. And, and the smaller studios in that region, like, you know, one of my favorite releases from this year, Frostpunk two, that's Eastern Europe, you know, And it's good.

It's Frostpunk two.

Simone Collins: Good.

Malcolm Collins: It's great. Yeah, I think the only good game that came out of the U. S. So I heard it had a big team in Eastern Europe was space Marines to but then we've also got like bad media in the U. S. And the question is, is [00:02:00] I want to get into like the U. N. Trying to ban this and the reaction to this.

Simone Collins: Okay,

Malcolm Collins: but why media like why I have a Crunchyroll account and I don't have a Netflix account and I know I should be giving money to Crunchyroll. It's just easy. Okay, and I don't have a Netflix account. Why should you not be

Simone Collins: giving money to Crunchyroll? Did they they're super woke

Malcolm Collins: they spend it on woke b******t.

They're terrible. But I don't have a Netflix account You know, I don't have an HBO account. I don't have a paramount account. And the the reason is Is because the media that's being produced there, if we talk about the one civilization hypothesis, is that wherever the one civilization blooms, it typically allows for large bureaucracies.

So I should note, if you haven't seen our one civilization hypothesis video, it's that humanity has largely consisted of one civilization that was, if you actually look at like the archaeological, artistic, and literature record despite what the DEI proponents want you to think, of only one civilization.

which is hopped from one ethnic group to another started in Egypt, went to Mesopotamia, then went to Ancient Greece, then [00:03:00] went to Rome, then went to Charlemagne like Central Europe, then went to the Victorian Empire then went around the world. And that after a while, like Greece today sucks.

Speaker: They smell like a bed of cheese. I

Speaker 2: The Faginoculuses are good people.

Speaker 4: Good people? They're Greeks. And Greeks are just Jews without money.

Malcolm Collins: Like this is not like an essence of premises theory at all. But like, it seems to exhaust the potential of a people after it reaches a golden age within a specific region. And I wonder if it's already exhausted a portion of the American potential.

I really worry about that. Like, are we. And this is what I always wonder. Are we at the end of the Roman Republic or are we at the end of the Roman Empire? I think it's more likely we're at the end of the Roman Republic. But it has exhausted a lot of the creative dynamism of America of the giant companies in America.

And so when I'm going for artistic creations, I need to go to a place less tainted because that's the [00:04:00] only place I'm going to find things that don't look like they came out of a factory line.

United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women, CEDAW, oh my god.

Can you believe they have, like, a whole committee on this? Like, our country is paying for, like, the United Nations to exist, and they're spitting that money on things like the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women Committee. And they don't, they don't focus on, like, the Middle East. They focus on anime.

This is about imposing a cultural hegemony, not on actually lowering the amount of discrimination.

Simone Collins: No, the fan service must end, Malcolm. It is not to be tolerated. No man can experience

Malcolm Collins: pleasure. They have expressed concerns about Japanese media, including anime and manga in a report from CEDAW. They claimed that these forms of media could potentially encourage gender based sexual orientation, gender based or sexual orientation based violence against women and girls.

The committee recommended that Japan [00:05:00] implement quote. Effective legal measures and monitoring programs in quote to address the production and distribution of such content The report also emphasized the need to address gender stereotypes towards minority groups in japan Including a new burakim and zinachi korean women and girls.

Oh, you want to reduce japanese? Like, like, stereotypes of, like, Korean and Chinese people. They're like, could you take, like, a more direct shot at Japanese culture? Like, you guys need to stop being so racist against other East Asian groups. And they're like, but that's, like, our core thing, man.

I find it shocking that are so drenched in their own cultural perspective. That they fail to see that different cultures may have a degree of cultural supremacism as part of the culture itself and attempting to erase that is attempting to erase a core element of that culture. It is. Racist. To [00:06:00] attempt to convince a culture that has

That has ethnic pride, deeply embedded within it. To erase that aspect of their cultural inheritance. And this wouldn't be so bad if this rule wasn't applied it's so unevenly two different ethnic groups. As we have
