Great Reset isn't a theory. The notion that Bill Gates and Prince Charles are plotting a communist takeover, that's a theory.

The far-right have been spit-balling vague threats about "the World Bank" since I was a kid. Now they get bylines in The Hill and other tabloids that pretend to be news.

This is what he said on his blog, according to the leftist who wants to cancel him:
Klaus Schwab, the executive chairman of the World Economic Forum, stated a year ago in June 2020 that the world would never return to the way it was before. He declared that there was a need for a Great Reset. No, he even said that the pandemic was a convenient opportunity for a Great Reset. People such as the British royal family and the Prime Minister of Canada immediately agreed.
As far as I know, I've never encountered any person who agrees with this kind of claim.

The world has come under information control as media outlets such as Google, Facebook, and Twitter have begun to shut down different perspectives, opinions, and other information that differs from those reported by the mainstream media. But, perhaps because he was frustrated by the fact that things didn't go to plan, Klaus Schwab declared that the next threat to the world would be a ‘cyber pandemic’.
An event called Cyber Polygon, which was held in July 2020, is scheduled to be held again this year as well.
They may want to reset all of the world's values for real this time.

It's a little alarmist, but it's definitely not that out of line. And that's assuming this is a 100% accurate and truthful translation.

Here's his perspective on the news, and on the "alt right" news sources they hate:
Since spring 2020, I've completely stopped watching news on television. Even before then, the deterioration of television and newspaper coverage had been getting awful. The last ten years or so has seen budgets no longer being properly devoted to investigative journalism, and although you could barely see some of it in the past, all opinions that stand in opposition to mainstream journalism have vanished. ‘On-site coverage’ has been replaced with smartphones, and news coverage has all now become remote. But now that we're in a situation where anyone can tell that something is strange, I have completely lost all love for the television that keeps undoubtedly pouring out poison. It's not just television. The newspapers that spill out the words from news agencies are the same.

I've been a screenwriter since the late 1980s, and ever since my debut, I've been emphasizing the role of fake news in television reporting. My tokusatsu and anime productions from the end of the 90s to the beginning of the 2000s depicted television as being a visualization of people's shared perceptions, and now, I'm even starting to feel regrets about this.

The only honest coverage I could find about the situation in 2020 on YouTube was from the UK program Talk Radio (which was mercilessly asking Cabinet-level government officials questions over the phone), and the independent reporter UK Column (which often gathered statements from whistleblowers). The former has now been forced to stop uploading video clips, and the latter's account has been terminated.

To no one's surprise at all, TV Tropes (the forum) has noticed the Digimon Tamers 2021 script reading.
Discussion of the reading begins near the bottom of this page.

Their opinions are obviously agreeing with Twitter for the most part.
EDIT: Having read people's replies beneath Konaka's (the writer of Digimon Tamers 2021) tweets (below), I mean the majority of people getting uppity over a generic "censorship/cancel culture is bad" take.

I expect TV Tropes (both the forum and page/subpages of Digimon Tamers) to start screeching about how Konaka is alt-right (more than they are now) after he posts his view.

People are coping hard (as expected of them) by claiming they'll ignore it exists (the concept of "fanonuity" which I consider stupid)... when it's a follow-up to Digimon Tamers 2018: Days -Information and the Unordinary- which I presume is canon... considering that in turn is a follow-up to the Digimon Tamers anime itself.

Someone was disappointed in the voice actors for "going along with this nonsense."
View attachment 2417029
I guess they don't understand that the actors either (A) were paid to do this or (B) wanted to come back and didn't care what was part of the script.

I just realized they (the posters) contradict each other by claiming "Tamers is ruined!" while also saying "I'll ignore this lalalalalala."

Relevant screenshots (not from the forums but subpages within the/on the Digimon Tamers page)

Great way to be impartial/neutral, guys.
Also they still use tropes when talking to each other on the forums? Are they all autistic or something?

What did the script say?

Think about it: They're obsessive enough to do the mundane task of categorizing stuff that normies consider trivial... And this is on a good day. On the other hand, we get the rejects who were banned for being too annoying to keep around and can't the hint that nobody wants them around.

But anyways, I love how they're directly serving the cancer to us.

Harry Potter fanfic.

The only review of Chris' webcomic.

Aspergchu page, since nobody archived it and it's in their crosshairs.

It's been locked since the days of Fast Eddie.

Character page.

YMMV

And the fridge page.

Even in reviews, they can't stop linking tropes. I get what they mean when they say Chris' art sucks, I can look it up on my own. I don't need them to link some trope that I'm not opening. It's circlejerking the site itself.

also lmao this comment
Maybe if we had given them some \'constructive criticism,\' then there would be a chance that they would listen.

Chris, as far as I know, has never listened to any constructive criticism regarding his art. (He's also barely improved, or even regressed from some points of view, from the first issue of Sonichu onward)

It's kind of impossible to make Crayola look good without digitally editing it. And considering how he organizes the panels, it's pretty clear that he's incapable of planning ahead. Almost in the same vein how he randomly blurts out embarrassing facts.

His art for the gofundme surprised me by being way better than it used to be. He has improved over the years.

Their paranoia is showing, again.

These guys are really keeping me busy, lately. Yet another Chris fic. (Where they just deleted the text that compared him to Downfall)

And this should be the last one.

I mean, it’s not really paranoia considering we actually are watching them.

On another note, from the Jerks Are Worse Than Villains, look at the kind of books they put under “literature”:
Atonement
Harry Potter
Goosebumps
Warrior Cats
Percy Jackson
and a couple light novels.

Nothing in there more complex than a YA novel. I enjoy light novels sometimes too, but good grief. How about some Shakespeare or some Clive Cussler or Hemmingway or Alistair MacLean or anything?
