   The tiktok larpers were the worst thing to happen to the VN community. Those people are below 100 IQ lobotomites, that couldn't possibly understand the beauty of the author's philosophical discussion . I am just happy that they didn't find out about Full Metal Daemon Muramasa yet.

   I think some larpers do actually hate what they pretend to like without realizing it. Just take a look at the nekopara larpers once they learn nekopara is actually 18+. They don't actually enjoy this type of media except for the "aesthetic". Ask them to sit and actually read a VN I'm sure most of them would not be able to or would refuse to

   Yup, i agree with you on everything you mentioned, i really dont understand how our ancestors appealed to this submissive and "turn the other cheek" religion. Its just so weak and defeatist in its Nature, how can anyone hear all the gloomy sayings and go; "wew, this sure sounds awesome". And all the "muh Deus vult thoo" amerifat larpers are even worse. Christianity has No Stamina and sovereignty compared to other modern religions, buddhism islam etc, give me anything but this depressing cuck religion. On a semi religious Side note, ZEN is pretty awesome and makes me want to Read Up in buddhism.

   Real-world events will confront young urban Catholics with the full implications of Catholic doctrine, making it hard to view the rosary as a fashion statement. Over time, these developments will sort the converts from the LARPers.

   No actual Marxist would ever do this. Hinkle is not a leftist; he's a LARPer appealing to racists and colonialists.
