though i think there’s a solid argument to be made for most of these being conservative, even if not in ways this guy would necessarily recognize as such. name a series on this and i could find a legitimate, not a bit reason it’s reactionary. that goes triple for one piece

      I was referring to the perspective of the guide maker in the OP which I assume was making this for new viewers not people who are already weebs.

      Maybe that assumption is wrong, but IMO following from it, having a white blond American woman as a soldier AND antagonist while Tanya as a child soldier giving orders and often talking down old men in the army is not something I expect anyone over 40 to enjoy, this is all far more likely to annoy older conservatives while sure 4chan loves it. Also as I said the atheist theme alone is likely a turn off, its either you stand for Nazism or you’re a 4chan kid. Normie 40yo+ conservatives are probably going to have a negative reaction.

      So “conservative core” is rather more like “4chan top random picks for [current year ±15]”

        oh sure. i guarantee you whoever made this list was active on 4chan in 2006, and probably still is today. thus list is incredibly elder millenial/young gen x weeb. i’m a little surprised they don’t have like, slayers on there

        That’s a good way of pointing it out. Although I extend this to older fascists as well. Normies basically fall under the base assumption that “good = fascist” and “bad = left-leaning”.

        If normie Amerikkkans watched Snowpiercer and liked it, they would call it a based aryan film. If they read The Turner Diaries and somehow didn’t like it, they could call it woke.

      That begs the question, why would CHUDs of any stripe hate Amerikkka? Is it like Russia where their only gripe about Amerikkka is that they are a bunch of fascist baby eaters that are in competition with them for eating babies?

        japanese conservatives generally dislike america on account of america forcing the dismantling of japan’s military and general bitterness about ww2 and the aftermath. so kinda what you were saying but they do have specific historical and current gripes
