Evidence has finally surfaced from Vaush's own stream that makes it clear that his secret proclivities are just as bad as had previously been implied.Support...
Also it turns out the wanting to fuck horses thing wasn’t just a bit.
From your other comments here, you’re overreacting.
Sexualized depiction of minors in anime is a HUGE issue, alongside hypersexualization of women in general too, but it’s not what the whole medium of anime is. The same way there’s a lot of bad stuff in the shonen genre (basically the category of anime whose target audience is teenage boys), there’s plenty of stuff that don’t do that, and there’s also stuff that actually criticizes that practice.
Anime movies from Ghibli and other works like Perfect Blue, for example, don’t rely on this this type of stuff. For anime series, Wonder Egg Priority is very pro-LGBT and criticizes Japan’s issues with sexual assault, all while having a cast of only girls without sexualizing them. There’s other works too like Trigun and The Promised Neverland that, as far as I remember, don’t rely on this type of sexualization at all, and these are not small niche anime, they are well known works.
Only if you’re Japanese, by your own definition. Nobody else would call Spongebob anime, come on now. Why are so many here so over the top freaked out by criticism of sexualised cartoons of children?
The point of what they said is that the Japanese call every type of cartoon Anime, but everyone else in the world only calls Anime specifically the animated media that comes from Japan, or in some cases animated media that uses the same style as the Japanese, for example, Avatar: The Last Airbender sometimes being called an anime.
Also, no one is freaking out about the criticism you’re giving, everyone agrees with you on this front, but you’re clearly uninformed enough to lump everything together as the same thing, without giving it a gram of nuance and material thought. Japan have a pretty big problem with these practices that are still unresolved, it is clearly gonna show up on some of the stuff they produce and they SHOULD be criticized for it, but this is not the type of stuff that is gonna change tomorrow, it takes time.
