smuganimebitch:

people like to say it’s okay to enjoy “problematic” media but you have to do it “critically”

and “critically” here seems to mean “never shut up about the bad elements in a piece of media, constantly self-flagellate for daring to enjoy something terrible, and let anyone who enjoys it ‘uncriticially’ know how revolting they are for daring to think a piece of problematic media is neat”

id rather not treat liking some shitty titty anime like being a catholic thanks
