2023.05.06 16:56 marco_nadal_75 Backup of Mazono Akira's YouTube channel (#RYONA #VTUBER)

Hello All,
I'm on a Discord conference call with Mazono Akira's VA, and the poor girl is bawling her eyes out. She recently moved house and she has just discovered her 1 TB volume is unreadable. I'm willing to pay for data recovery, in case some of it can be saved, but I want a Plan B.
I have heard from my CIO that there used to be a group of RYONA fans called /meat/, some of which hoarded all her videos. /meat/ and all discussion of #RYONA genre VTubers have been permabanned from 4chan.org/vt/, despite being polite and posting interesting material and discussions.
Any tips on where I can look for those hoarders? They sure as hell aren't here.
Thank You For Your Hard Work.

What is going on with AuroraLiveVR?
What is the community's opinion on this vtuber agency? I have done some research on them lately and now I have some concerns that I want to voice since I think people should be warned about them.
Hello 👋 I don't really use reddit but I don't know where else to post about this. One of my favorite streamers left this agency suddenly and I was slightly interested in joining this agency's staff team. I didn't see anything bad about them on reddit or has any drama channel spoke about them. I thought they seemed fine until I noticed that their talents tend to leave or graduate almost monthly. I don't know but that seemed like a red flag to me and I decided to post under someone else's post about their art studio?
I was then sent a link to a 4chan thread and what I read seemed very concerning. I really don't know if it's completely truth but thought I should include it because they are hiring for new staff members and talents right now. I am not going to tell anyone what to do but I believe that this information should be available on reddit for anyone who is researching about the company like me. I want to share my own opinions and encourage people to research so they don't end up in a bad situation.

2022.10.30 02:57 edgewolf666-6 maybe unpopular oppinion : wyrm ruins WtA

So I've been delving into werewolf the apocalypse lore lately as I am trying to get into the game with a bunch of friends. And so far the most consistent opinion I have about it is that the wyrm is the most annoying plot contrivance I've seen in a while. You have awesome fucking concepts and villains like Black Tooth a fucking African warlord were-lion with a messianic complex that wants to genocide all were-hyenas and build fucking pyramids from their skulls or the Skin Dancers, a sect of hunters that hail from an Aztec princess that go after werewolves not to protect humanity but to acquire their power and become werewolves themselves through fucking blood rituals. You have fucking mutated radioactive were-sharks and genetically engineered mindless werewolves created by Pentex and all of this awesome shit takes a back seat to some cringy ass captain planet fernguly tier shit where the Wyrm is behind everything, all bad guys are just evil because they are in one way or another corrupted by the Wyrm and the Wyrm's main avenue is fucking pollution and social evils. I get werewolves being representations of wild chaotic nature as opposed to the aristocratic orderly vampires. I can swallow the fact that an entire werewolf tribe has the civilisation hat "triggered radical feminist" and that the red talons are extinction rebellion. But at the point when I dunno where satire ends and preachiness begins reading shit like the Wyrm creating banes and gaining power from the fucking Yugoslavian wars and the werewolves going to war to save the fucking Amazon rainforest, Pentex, fucking PENTEX having ties to a fucking fantasy 4chan, and the phrase "OCCUPY MALFEAS" well that is the point when I flip my shit. Pentex from what I get in the old lore was meant to be primarily a joke, a parody of the Satanic Panic complete with videogames that make you possessed if you play them, a boss that had made a deal with the devil and a parody of White Wolf itself called Black Dog games publishing "Labyrinths and Lamiae". They were not meant to have so much influence they were just a side comedic bad guy in VtM while WtA turned them into the primary antagonist to the entirety of the Werewolf species and they are not even cartoonishly evil and funny anymore they are just every generic evil corporation ever with a hefty dose of heavy handed social commentary.Speaking off, compare the variety that you can have with bad guys in VtM as a dm to what you can have in WtA where you must always end up (From what I get so far) with some fucking variation of Pentex and the Wyrm. Even the core conflict of "Wild nature vs Ordered Civilisation" isn't served well that way. For example imagine if the side representing the evils of humanity wasn't the cult of some fucking big cosmic leech that wants to destroy the world because it's evil but human hunters who go after werewolves not with fucking eldritch magic but with the tools of humanity, advanced weapons and technology and clever strategy, which would work on two levels as contrast to the werewolves' honorable warrior ideals and as a more fitting analogy for humanity's conflict with nature. Instead of every bad thing ever from littering to holocaust feeding the Wyrm, there could be monsters and demons and other supernatural shit feeding off of atrocities or being created by them not because they are all peons of a fucking space maggot but because this is the World of Darkness and there are supernatural shit all over the place- ghosts, spirits, demons, fae.. Hell there are fucking entities associated with specific cities. And most of all Vampires themselves. Vampires have won in the world of darkness, they control humanity, vastly outnumber the werewolves, they run the Masquerade and have complex conspiracies that are already part of the lore (and which current WtA lore renders meaningless because it's all controlled by the Wyrm anyway). The werewolves could still have the hopeless uphill battle against Vampires who themselves can be way more diverse as bad guys to all the different variations of "Wyrm worshipping Pentex executive" the whole story would lose nothing if you removed the metanarrative about the Werewolves being in an endless war against the Wyrm (which btw is a shit ass boring excuse for an eldritch god) and it would only gain more possible variety for both dms and players, more possibilities for villains and more freedom for player character motivations. Again... all just imo

2022.09.08 19:02 No_Introduction_4421 My parents think therapy doesn't work and I need help.

So hi everyone, I'm a pretty young guy (grade 8) to be exact and I really want some help just online.
So let me paint the picture.
So before lockdown started my early years at school were very fun getting A+ and consistently getting top 1 and 2s in my school but then the pandemic hit when I was in grade 5 and I did some online class here and there and I was in a private school, my parents always had a thing for high grades even if they say to me that "we are ok even if you have low grades." I think that because I went to a private school they had this golden rule that my grades should not drop below 95.
So as the pandemic hit my grades also took a hit from your typical asian A+ getter to a sad sack of potatoes, and so I went to the internet to seek comfort since even in face to face I don't really have many friends and a lot bullied me (my parents weren't really here most of my life they never were, ever since I was born they were working abroad my aunt and grandma took me in since I live in a third world country in Asia.) And I started using reddit at a very young age and did some 4chan too since I have Asperger's and such I felt like the people on 4chan raised me better than who were around me. I mainly go on /vt/, /a/, and /v/ since I'm a massive vtuber fan and I play a lot of video games and by going on the internet it grew on me, I was shut in my room I never wanted to leave my room it was a safe space for me.
At that point of time the only somewhat human interaction I have was the trash taste podcast since I love anime and it made me feel human like I had friends for 2 hours, sometimes my family can hear me talking to myself while I was just watching their podcast. (I had parasocial relationship with that podcast but not to the creepy extent I just made my brain think that I was in the same room with them and just chatting like friends) and so it continued for 3 years until I was grade 7 when they started to see something is wrong with me and where I got really depressed and hopeless since when I was grade 6 moving to grade 7 they transferred me into a public school and the shift on people took a toll on me the already messed up me was getting worse and worse everyday.
And then boom they made me go to therapy and not going to lie it helped me a lot and my therapist was so good at making me feel better. But every time he builds up my confidence my parents will always make me feel awful. Like this one session with my therapist he says to my parents to give me a phone since even at grade 7 I didn't have a phone and yes they sure did give me a phone but a crappy one from 2014 which they fiddled with. (I know they did this since they had that phone for a while now, when they visited us here I saw that phone and my father is a very tech person since his work field is riddled with technology ie coding and other more tech stuff)
And then suddenly they made me stop going to therapy and keep saying it didn't work gaslighting me to think it did nothing and it was a scam. Then there was this grace period since my dad has a very high income on his work they gave me a boat load of stuff to bribe me and my stupid ass took the bait. Little by little they keep asking me if I "want to go to MIT" and more.
And it finally crashed when my family who I grew up with started telling me that they were using me for their advantage, and that they want me to go abroad, out of the third world country that I live in and into places like Germany, america, Singapore, etc and they had evidence.
Ever since that they have been cold to me and it didn't help that I used all of my savings from birthdays and such to buy myself a new phone now our internet goes off at 11:30 sharp our router gets jammed if you don't have a VPN (I'm using a VPN right now) and even this I have a very bad case of asthma but they don't want my aunt to use their car to drive to to school because "it's a waste of gas" and "he needs to grow up and stop treating him like a baby" and they want me to use a motorcab and or just walk since our house is near where my current school is it's only a 30 minute walk and because they want me to be "street smart" and to be "independent" but when I get independent they get mad.
I just feel like my parents are very manipulative, I can't even put all of the things they done in a single post or this will be a Wikipedia page. So that's my story I really want some help so please ask me anything and I will answer I hope I can get some help before I lose my sanity.

2022.07.04 23:18 GreatInca Jumpchain Supplement Docs by Category - Alt-Rules, BodyMod, Warehouse, Item, Boon / Reward, One-Off, Ongoing, Cheat/Meta

Jumpchain Supplement Docs by Category – Alt-Rules, BodyMod, Warehouse, Item, Boon / Reward, One-Off, Ongoing, Cheat/Meta
No original documents. A list of existing supplement docs put into categories.
Update 2023-01-03 – 6 month update. 1 new bodymod supplment QQ, 1 new bodymod supplments TG, 2 new banking supplements SB, all other new supplments are Reddit. A number of supplements were posted to Reddit and not uploaded to a community google drive. Those are on the bottom under 'Non-Community Supplement Documents'.
Update 2022-07-09 – I uploaded a lot of the non-community supplement to the Reddit Drive upload folder and they all were accepted and moved into the supplements folder, making them a part of the Reddit Jumpchain community google drive now. Links moved / updated accordingly. Also added a bunch of supplement docs from the Reddit drive not previously listed. Spun-off universal drawback supplements to a new category. New category for Celestial Forge type supplements.
Alternate JumpChain Rules
Multiplayer
Warning: Multiplayer is disdained in more orthodox jumpchain communities such as SpaceBttles or Traditional Gaming 4Chan. Though there are two perspectives of multiplayer – multiple actual players, and multiple main-jumpers run by the same one single player. Both are disruptive balance-wise (with the above supplements actually making it worse), but multiple actual players / writers is the perspective that potentially creates drama and strife.
Body Mod Docs sorted in my opinion of weakest to strongest
Long contract ranking based on max level, 'special talents'
The new Ultra BodyMod on Questionable Questing (QQ) is much more suitable for use in NSFW / lewd / pornographic jumps than the original Lewd Character Customization. Ultra Bodymod isn't that powerful ... Except there is a perk in there that allows brining in compatible future jump racial perks into the bodymod.
SurvivalKit and Five and Three are ranked assuming a harsh time limit and/or pseudo-deception imposed by a BROB.
Warehouse Docs * Core Warehouse * Quicksilver Warehouse – TG * Personal Reality – SB * Quicksilver Warehouse Supplements * Two Warehouses – SB, Clarification Doc, also doubles space * Arena – TG * Companion Housing Complex – TG * Housing System – TG * The Bay – TG * Space Dock – TG * Pseudo–warehouse Extradimensional Space / Warehouse Alternative * Cosmic Motorhome – TG * Cosmic Motorhome New Version – TG * Cosmic Shipping Container – Reddit * Cosmic Inventory Bag – Reddit * Cosmic Backpack – Reddit
Notes: * Personal Reality replaces Quicksilver Warehouse, Two Warehouses, Companion Housing Complex, Housing System, and The Bay. * Personal Reality obsoletes other supplements as well, such as Jumper’s Family. * Should the full warehouse be granted at a substantially delayed time, well beyond the 2nd jump, or not at all, the Cosmic Inventory Bag, Cosmic Backpack, Cosmic Shipping Container, and the Cosmic Motorhome counts as ‘warehouse’ for Jumpchain item storage / retention rules purposes, provided they fit.
Universal One-Off Jump-Attachment/Augment Supplements with Non-Persisting Perks
Notes: These jump attachment supplements are completely reusable. Perks and drawbacks in the supplements in this section do not persist post-jump. The supplement doc is fully reset on re-use. The audience supplement allows the franchise perks to persist for all future jumps however. The audience supplement is easily house-ruled into an ongoing jumper meta-supplement where all of its perks and drawbacks persist for all current and future jumps.
Universal Jump Attachment/Augment Vehicle Supplements
Notes: These supplements are reusable, but is usable only once for a specific vehicle / mecha / spaceship. The vehicle must hook into an appropriate perk-attachment point of the jump world the vehicle supplement is being attached to.
Jump Specific Vehicle / Companion Supplements
The evangelion supplement is usable only once per evangelion unit – it is explicitly stated as such in the document’s notes. FATE Servant is reusable with other FATE jumps as long as the servant is a jumper or a jumper’s companion, though tier-change is likely not supported.
Universal Ongoing Jump Attachment/Augment Supplements with Persistent Perks
Though universal, the Xianxia cultivation supplement document suggests it is used with the Generic Xianxia jump.
There are over 100 additional jumpdocs that are normally standalone jumps, but offer a universal jump-attachment ‘supplement mode’ and the supplement mode involves the perks persisting for all future jumps. About half of jumpdocs that offer a ‘supplement mode’ are generic jumps. Examples include Generic Divinity, Generic Muscle Building, SimCity 4, and Civilization V. Some offer a supplement mode that are attachable only to jumps in the same broad setting – examples are TES Magic, TES Dovah, TES Undead, TES Werebeasts and Star Trek Mirror Universe.
Generally, universal jump-attachable supplements and jumpdoc ‘supplement modes’ are reusable but have persisting perks unless the JumpDoc explicitly states otherwise (Addams Family is one such example banning re-use). The starting CP in the these supplement docs or the jumpdoc-in-supplement-mode can only be used once. Additional usages of the jumpdoc in supplement mode are 0 starting CP, but drawbacks can be taken to gain additional CP, but you cannot gain CP from the same drawback more than once – only new drawbacks not previously taken.
Jump-Specific Supplements:
Since base jumps cannot be reused except via the warehouse return feature, reuse is a non-issue with jump-specific supplements. Jumps revisited via the warehouse return feature explicitly state that no additional cp can be gained from revisits in any way, and it is safe to assume that also means no further CP can be gained from taking additional drawbacks. Things might get complicated with return milestone perks or long haul alt-jumpchain rules.
Item Supplements
Ongoing Jumper-Meta Supplements
The above supplement doc perks and drawbacks apply to the current and all future jumps in the jumpchain.
The Audience Supplement (Reddit) is a universal one-off jump-attachment/augment supplement with non-persisting perks, but it allows the franchise perks to persist for all future jumps. The audience supplement is easily house-ruleable to become an ongoing jumper meta-supplement though, where all of its perks and drawbacks persist for all current and future jumps.
Ongoing Boon / Reward Supplements
One-Off Meta Supplements with Non-Persistent Perks
Perks / drawbacks affect attached jump only
One-Off Meta Supplements with Persistent Perks
Reusable, challenge is attached jump only, goal rewards are chain-persistent
Other Ongoing Meta Supplements
Ongoing Meta Supplement perks and drawbacks apply to the current and all future jumps in the jumpchain.
Cheat Supplements
Universal Drawbacks
Universal drawbacks apply to the current and all future jumps in the jumpchain.
Celestial Forge
Interrupt Jump Supplements * Slaanesh Supplement – Reddit, Intended for NSFW / Lewd / Porn jumpchains
Joke / Sartre Supplements * Super Shamelessly Soulessly Stolen Shitty Sartre – Reddit

2022.06.06 15:00 Whookimo vtuber boards on sites like 4chan are weirdly... normal?

4chan and similar sites are known for being filled with trolls and toxicity, but after browsing through /vt/ and a couple of other vtuber boards, I've noticed that there's less toxicity and trolling than the rest of the site. It's still there, for sure, but its not as prominent. Like, I came across a thread that was completely positive and strangely cibvil while talking about Ironmouse, except for like one post saying the only reason she's popular was her illness.
It's so weird.

2022.04.13 07:06 ModmanX /uj Do you think Suisei knows what Suipiss/Suisex is?

Like, fully comprehends it? Does she know about the deranged Hoshiyomis on 4chan who try to recreate her piss?
We already know that T-chan is aware of Suisex, and by extension us, since she gave a picture of place to Subaru to show on stream, and Suisex was blurred. Some of the ID girls are aware of this sub, and I believe it was Risu who said she actually visits this place somewhat often to see the memes.
Judging by this, it's not out of the question to say that maybe one of them told her. She said Suipiss on stream once, unaware at the time, so maybe she asked someone.
I genuinely would like to know the levels of primal disgust that would come out of her when and if she knows, either to okbh, which pretends to be mentally deficient, or to /vt/ which is genuinely mentally deficient.
I'd love to hear all your thoughts on this.

2021.11.06 18:04 Fates_End [My Little Pony] The Radicalization of Bronydom: how a fandom went from arguing about who the cutest horse was to debating the ethics of slaying BLM protesters in melee combat.

A little image for the thumbnail.
Warning: Nazis and 4chan.
It's the beginning of June 2020. Around the world, adult fans of cartoon horses are waking up and checking their feeds. For those who weren't paying much attention to the internet over the weekend, they get a shock when they find blog posts about a bizarre event that happened that Saturday.
An adult man known for writing a reasonably well-liked pony story heavily based on Tolkien (and roughly the length of one of his books as well) had the shit beat out of him after he tried to charge people attending a George Floyd protest wielding a Roman gladius with the intent, one would presume, to politely engage in friendly debate over their differences in political opinions. I mean, for what other reason would a white catholic dude chase down protesters while waving around an actual goddamn sword?
A decent amount of people are confused by this event. How could such a popular figure in the pony fandom end up doing something that crazy and then tweet to publicly confirm it was him? Why are there people in the community trying to defend or even cheer on this lunatic's actions? How did we even get here?

Act 0: Background

My Little Pony
Yes, I know you probably know what My Little Pony is, but unless you've dipped your toes into the fandom (or read one of the other write-ups on this drama-prone community), I'm reasonably willing to bet you're not familiar with the more specific aspects of it. Feel free to skip this section if you want, but it'll put part of how the modern fandom started into perspective.
My Little Pony is a toy-based media franchise that was first created by toy juggernaut Hasbro in the early 80s following a formula they had piloted with their G.I. Joe franchise in the 60s and would later perfect with the Transformers franchise: make toys, pay studio peanuts to create fiction that'll get kids invested, make absolute bank.
The original TV incarnation of My Little Pony (in the period of toy designs referred to as "Generation 1" or simply G1) was, for better or worse, a very standard 80s cartoon in the vein of He-Man, GI Joe, and Thundercats, with little that stands out either way except for it being tuned for (animators' idea of) girls.
Which isn't to say that there aren't any bits that stand out at all; there's the pilot's villain who was oddly terrifying for a cartoon marketed towards little girls in this time period, the infuriatingly catchy theme song of the film's main threat, and the bizarreness that can only come from writers who aren't paid enough to care about stuff like verisimilitude or implications. It's just that such moments were few and far between.
G1 would go on to last a decent amount of time, and ended quietly in 1992. The franchise would go into a period of dormancy (briefly interrupted by the short-lived and unsuccessful G2, which didn't really have any fictional media attached to it) until the early 2000's.
In 2003, what's called G3 would make a comeback, with both the toys and the shows being retooled for a younger audience. In less than respectful terms, this would mean that the fictional media was 'dumbed down' from the already 80s standards of G1. It is generally not looked back on fondly by those who got into the series with G4, aside from the odd popularity a pony called Minty got, and is arguably the main reason for the negative preconceptions that G4 would face when its time came.
There was also, near the end of G3, a bit of a redesign to the toys that made the changes from G1 more extreme. This would be referred to as G3.5, as it was still technically within the continuity and toyline of G3, and the animation that would accompany it... well, we don't talk about Newborn Cuties. Let's just say that it was in the early days of Flash animation and every possible corner was cut.
Inspired by, believe it or not, Michael Bay's incarnation of Transformers, Hasbro decided to do things quite a bit differently for Generation 4, Friendship is Magic, which started in 2010 and is the generation most of bronydom focuses on.
First, the designs and characters were created first for the TV show, and then the toys were modeled after them, rather than the other way around. Second, the main creative mind behind the show, Lauren Faust, was known for her work on beloved shows The Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. Third, the show's target was widened significantly. While it was still centered on adolescent girls, it took the more modern approach of trying to be a show that parents would actually enjoy watching with their children, rather than dreading.
The size of Friendship is Magic absolutely dwarfs its predecessors. Running for 9 years and amassing over 200 episodes, a film, and a spin-off (which was successful in its own right) over the course of 9 seasons, it's easy to tell that Hasbro knew it had something good and milked it to its last drop.
Nazis on the Internet
While they didn't grab attention on a large scale until their rise under the moniker of "the Alt-Right" during the 2016 election, that isn't to say they haven't been around for a long, long time.
White supremacists were rather early adopters of the internet following the Eternal September; Stormfront, a large and sadly difficult-to-kill white supremacist forum has been around since 1996; KKK leaders like David Duke spoke of it as the greatest source of "racial enlightenment" they'd ever had access to.
Of course, they didn't go out and start shouting passages from Mein Kampf in the comments section of social media sites. Well, some did, but most of them were smarter than people expect them to be.
You see, at the time the neo-nazi was thought of like some kind of an evil cryptid; when one became obvious, it was chased off with prejudice, but until then, people would discount the idea of them out of hand. Of course, people vaguely knew that they existed, but, especially in the US, they were seen as something that only happened in other communities, other cities, other countries.
And so, they used this to their advantage. In places like Stormfront, they would cook up and refine recruitment strategies, which operated a lot like the mythical frog in the pot; find a source of vulnerable people, and slowly change the environment around them until they either were convinced of white supremacist ideology or were totally overwhelmed by white supremacists.
I've heard that the furry community is well familiar with these tactics. Someone more versed in furry culture than me could probably do a good write-up on the battle between furries and nazis.
4chan
4chan is a website that began in 2003 as a teenager's spin-off of the influential, though nowadays somewhat obscure, dead gay internet comedy forum Something Awful, based on the source code of the popular Japanese imageboard Futaba Channel (aka 2chan).
It was intended to be a forum that was more casual, less heavily policed, and more open to anime fans than SA, and as such it began with a board (think subforum) for anime discussion and an 'anything-goes' board, though the boards would multiply as time went on and the community grew. 4chan's history is long and chaotic, and drama on it could fill many, MANY posts on this sub, so I'll try to stick to a general outline of what'll be relevant later.
4chan would quickly develop its own cultural identity, centered on a dislike of outsiders, a love for edginess, a very Southparkian idea of comedy, and above all, the idea that caring about things was for losers. As such, it developed its own unofficial laws and coded language of memes and insincere bigotry that would not only advertise users' 'I hate everyone equally’ concept of comedy, but also would repulse outsiders and make newcomers incredibly obvious.
Moot, the founder of 4chan, would manage the site very well for its first 12 years of life, juggling the comfort of users, the continued survival of the website, and his own morality. While many users would constantly post memes about how they hated Moot and everything he did, the reaction to his retirement from the website in 2015 revealed that under all the irony and insincerity, the userbase was by-and-large devastated to see him go.
Then he sold the site to Hiroyuki. While there isn't any solid proof, it's believed by many that the man who would take the reins of the site from Moot, Hiroyuki Nishimura, got the site by misleading him about his exact history.
You see, Hiroyuki Nishimura was the original owner of 2channel. No, not 2chan, that's a different website. Now, 2channel/2ch, well, it was 2chan's predecessor. However, it's solely text-based rather than being an image board like 2chan and 4chan, and the website is quite a bit more... controversial. If you take a look at the Wikipedia articles for each website, 2ch's is a good deal longer than 2chan’s, and much of it is negative. Note, though, that at the time of the sale, much of the controversies were totally unknown to western users due to the language barrier.
The community is notorious for being far-right wing, and Hiroyuki Nishimura himself has earned himself a lot of notoriety. Pocketing huge amounts of money without paying the people who actually ran the site, suspicions of credit card theft, running malicious ads, publicly declaring he would never pay the penalties for the lawsuits he lost, and getting kicked off the site by not paying his domain registrar, he has it all.
As for his tenure on 4chan? Well, on the public front he plays the persona of the innocent foreigner with poor English skills, while on the back-end of the site, he's been up to his old tricks.
Nowadays, 4chan's declined a lot from its prime.

Act I: The Birth of a Community

Let's rewind a bit, shall we?
Ponybros
The date is October 10th, 2010. The location is /co/, 4chan's western animation board. Today is the day that the new My Little Pony series premieres. Discussion has been sparse in the lead-up, but there are still people posting on the show's designated thread. Some people are cautiously hopeful due to the big names behind it. Some people are there to laugh at people posting in the thread, and at the fact that one even exists. Many are simply there because they have nothing better to do.
And then the show premieres.
They love it and they hate that they love it. Some people love it a little too much. Owing to site culture, a few people immediately fire up the edginator. Of course, there are still neighsayers. One poster makes a joke that's hilariously prescient.
Then the second part of the premiere aired.
Over on a 4chan splinter site, this conversation occurs. History is made.
The Splintering
Although there was certainly a community by this point, it was pretty much entirely localized to 4chan. The community was growing rapidly, though, and tension began to build up between the fandom and 4chan's moderators, both due to it threatening to overwhelm all other conversation on /co/ and even /b/ (the random board, known for having such a massive volume of posts that few threads would ever last very long before being pushed past the page limit and deleted), and simple dislike of such a fandom existing on the site.
Owing to this atmosphere, a member of /co/ who drew attention from the mods due to his excessive role-playing would go on to create Equestria Daily, a blog that would serve as something of a link aggregator for pony content and news. Meanwhile, on /b/, general hostility from the mods towards pony threads would lead to the creation of Ponychan, an imageboard made exclusively for MLP discussion.
Come February 26th of 2011, this tension would come to a head, leading to mass bannings, autoban wordfilters, and blacklisting of the methods which the main thread used to avoid duplicates. Chaos ensued, eventually leading to an exodus of much of the fandom to Ponychan and a mod encouraging the invasion of Ponychan and the spamming of death threats to Lauren Faust's Deviantart account.
Mod action would slow down after a couple of days, and after a year of uneasy tension, Moot would step in to create /mlp/ - a containment board to separate bronies from non-bronies.
At this point, the fandom would be split into two; those who remained on 4chan, and those who left to one of the two original fansites. Just about every new brony from then on will have entered the fandom from the former, the latter, or one of the latter's descendants.

Act II: Decay

The events that led to the creation of /mlp/ allowed for segments of the fandom to exist free of 4chan's baggage, but it also led to a cohesive us-vs-them mentality among bronies. With both the largely-female pre-brony MLP fandom and the media at large looking at them with disgust, mockery, and at times straight-up hostility, the fandom would grow to turn a blind eye to alarming politics and stuff like being violently homophobic in a fandom built on homosexual ships as it repeated 'love and tolerance', since bronies had to stick together. Everything's normal. Everything's fine. We're all together in this, so let's all not look too deeply.
It's at roughly this point that 4chan's use of edgy and controversial language began to attract the sorts of people who use that sort of language sincerely. As it turns out, the strategy of making yourself look repulsive to deter outsiders doesn't work when the outsiders are themselves morally repulsive and looking for like-minded people.
Right-wing politics began to build up around the site, and so Moot made a third attempt to create a board for politics. Prior to this, there had been two news/political boards, both of which Moot had ended up purging once their nazi concentration hit critical mass. Any political or obviously unironically racist posts outside of the board from then on would result in an immediate ban, and hopefully, the precedent of what Moot had done to /pol/'s predecessors would keep them under control and out of sight. And it did, for a while.
And in 2014, Gamergate came to town.
Gamergate
Stop me if you've heard this one before: some dude gets pissy and tries to enlist 4chan as his personal army to get his petty revenge. It's happened quite a few times before, and pretty much every time the result has been the same: the poster gets relentlessly mocked and then forgotten about, barring the dude doing something even dumber in retaliation.
Except here's the problem: it's the mid-2010's, Tumblr's getting popular, and backlash against the boogeyman of the Ess Jay Double-yous is rising and rising. Couple that with the nazis realizing that 4chan's userbase is the perfect blend of awkward, outcast AMAB teens and laying the groundwork to worm their way in via /pol/, and you get a recipe for one hell of a harassment campaign.
Outrage gets drummed up, more and more targets get added, and fresh meat gets lured in with 'you know how video games journalism is a corrupt institution where AAA studios can blatantly buy good reviews? Well, I can tell you the real culprits behind all of this' and 'yeah, all these people here are using bad methods and started this by listening to a misogynistic douchebag, but we're all working towards the same goal, so we should stick together even if we disagree'.
In many ways, this was the test run for the alt-right's big debut a couple of years later. The subterfuge and blurring of lines was so effective that people who were involved in the movement but didn't follow the alt-right pipeline all the way wouldn't realize what was really going on until years later.
This started and became popular in /v/, despite the driving forces of it being /pol/-related, illustrating how much nazi influence was spreading throughout the website. As for /mlp/'s part, this same year would mark the creation of the character of Aryanne, a popular original pony who can be boiled down solely to 'what if a pony was a Nazi?'. Her existence and popularity was, and often still is, chalked down to 'it's just an edgy joke'.

Act III: It all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down

The Alt Right Rises
The year is 2017.
Two years ago, Moot handed off ownership of 4chan to Hiroyuki Nishimura, a man with absolutely no moral standards and who would do absolutely nothing to stand by Moot's implicit threats, thereby dooming the website to become slowly overrun with white supremacists.
One year ago, /pol/ became the central hub of the United States' fascist movement, inciting violence and electing an orange lunatic to the country's highest office. In addition, they came up with and popularized Pizzagate, an insane melange of minor 4chan memes, traditional Nazi rhetoric, and any and all conspiracy theories that could be fit into it, culminating in a man deciding to open fire on a pizza restaurant.
And then, on April Fools Day...
/mlpol/. God damn it.
4chan is no stranger to April Fools pranks and screwing with the operation of the site. Even outside of April Fools, the site owner would sometimes just fuck with the site because he felt like it. For example, in 2010, the website's video game board was invaded by rainbows and the sound of Erasure's Always due to the popularity of Adult Swim's game Robot Unicorn Attack. And in 2008, all posts were corrected to ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWAH, with background music added to fit it, in celebration of Barack Obama's election.
The alterations to the website on April Fools 2017, however, would have more far-reaching consequences.
On that day, boards were merged due to 'budget concerns'. For the most part, this was harmless, and in some cases kind of funny as radically different board cultures tried to exist for the day.
Except on /mlp/, as it was cronenberged with /pol/ into the monstrosity called /mlpol/. For once, /pol/ didn't need to hide who they were, and were free to proselytize as aggressively as they wanted, equating themselves to the pony fandom as ‘kindred spirits’ who were just as unwanted in online spaces as them. And the worst parts of /mlp/ were free to unmask in the presence of their peers. The uptick in visible nazi presence in the fandom spiked, and the later creation of permanent /mlpol/ communities let it stay that way, as bronies increasingly tried to ignore the trends and tell themselves that it was just a few people.
From that point onward, things went mostly quiet on the brony front for a couple of years as everyone who wasn't a nazi prayed that everything would turn out fine.
Until some asshole decided to go all out, just this once, on his own little holy crusade and got taken to the trash.

Epilogue: So what happened next?

As much as I’d like to give this post a nice feel-good ending about how the fandom overcame its roots and purged the nazis from their ranks, the consequences were, sadly, not much.
For a while, there were blog posts and debates (shoutouts to Cynewulf specifically, her posts on the subject really helped to form the skeleton of this write-up) that caused several prominent figures to put their feet down and call out the community.
People posted recollections of their encounters with modern fascism and its apologists, especially within the brony community, a bunch of nazi bronies came out of the woodwork to play faux devil's advocate, show their asses and get blacklisted, and prove that not all nazis are smart. In addition, more bigots in the fandom got receipts pulled on them and the whole thing caused a big hubbub on Derpibooru.
Despite this, as I said, not much has changed on the whole. Habits are a hard thing to break and the fandom's been in a lull since Friendship is Magic ended and G5 has only just begun. Only time will tell what the community's ultimate fate will be, but fascists are like cockroaches: even if you manage to get rid of a few individual ones for good, there are always more.
TL;DR: Nazis like to infiltrate communities and subtly brainwash vulnerable teens and bronies were the perfect target, especially since the fandom started on 4chan.

2021.09.21 05:09 biogenital I'm ending it. Finally.

No more 'one last day' or 'this is my final goodbye so let me pull out all my favourite doujins' kind of thing.
I've seen so many sick shit on nhentai. Of course I blacklisted tags like l*licon, guro or scat, but the covers from blacklisted works are only a little blurry. So I hover them, because maybe it's something good, and I see most degenerate things imaginable. Sometimes I click. I feel so sick and I wish to erase all of this from my memory. I don't want to remember that one guro doujin where a girl got burned alive or that one loli exhibitionism hentai.
No more. I will not read ecchi manga and hentai. I'm also quitting 4chan forever. Fuck /v/ and their pedophile roleplay threads. It's basically a porn site, even SFW boards.
No more 'just a few days of nofap and then relapse'. I've been relapsing for over a year ffs. Nevermore. End. Finito.
I've been laughing at my friend's constant failed attempts to quit smoking, but I can't quit hentai. This is no longer the case. I'm quiting. I'm out.
The post above has actually been written a few days ago, and hasn't been posted because reddit antispam filters automatically removed it. Since then I opened up porn. Then saw a thing on Twitter and went 'Man, I wonder how 4chan reacted do this!' and immediately checked /vt/. Turns out it was in the middle of getting raided and it was full of 2D CP. I have never been so utterly disgusted in my life. Scat. Infants. Repulsive, horrifying images drawn by sociopaths and pedophiles. I will never repeat my mistake. I am. So. Fucking. Done. With hentai and chans. Even eyebleach doesn't help now, fuck.

Turns out he was taking the exact same course but ofc he didn’t say shit, even back when we asked him. All of us were shocked to see him. We approached him(obviously it wouldn’t be him approaching us), and asked him to hang out for the first time in a fucking year.“Nah…I’m busy…peace guys haha…”And he just fucking leavesThe rest of us go to the mall and when I check the group chat when I get there guess whatTHIS FUCKING RETARDPOSTED LIKE FIFTEEN HOLOLIVE “MEMES”If you can even call them memes it’s just average basic Chinese girls talking behind a gay fucking pedo-bait mask singing along to the best of the next popular tiktok song…I digress.Anyway this man had no social interaction outside of hololive, and god forbid, this forumJust recently he posted about a hololive expo or something happening nearby. None of us gave a shit but said we are willing to go with him just so we could chill with him in person again. Again, he said noAnd it’s not like he hates us, I mean if he did why would he keep posting holoshit memes in our….oh….Well anyway he still talks to us in online group calls frequently, he just refuses to go outside
It’s been 3 years, 3 fucking years. It can’t go on for much longer, we are growing further and further apart . As the rest of us are developing one way he is stagnating in the hololive hell hole.I just want to hang out with my friend of 10 years…Please…I just want my friend back…

2020.04.07 14:38 SkynetJusticeWarri0r [WATCH REDDIT LIE PART II] How r/WatchRedditDie has become the main beneficiary of the admins tolerance and discretion.

Another Confirmed Hoax
You're probably aware of the vile allegations being pushed around on the most hateful corners of reddit, given how prolific the users are who are participating in this vile harassment campaign. I explained what was happening a few weeks ago in [PART I].
Basically:
  1. Someone posted what WRD claimed was child exploitation material on WatchRedditDie.
  2. WRD and other hate subs have then continually claimed that everyone who has ever used AHS is not only allegedly responsible for this, but we're also all pedophiles who commit the crime of distributing child exploitation material.
  3. WRD and other hate subs claimed that this occurred because hate subs aren't actually banned because they repeatedly break Reddit's TOS, but rather hate subs are instantly banned because hostile users post child exploitation material to "false flag them".
But as I said in Part I, it turns out that WRD the subreddit with a long habit of accusing everyone that they disagree with of being pedophiles and of creating hoaxes to incite their users into taking matters into their own hands, has once again been caught out in a lie.
1. It turns out that no actual child exploitation material was ever posted on WRD.
WRD Mod: "… the content everyone is referring to as “child porn” here (at least as far as I’ve seen as a mod of WRD) isn’t pictures of child abuse." // [ORIGINAL THREAD] // [ARCHIVE]
2. There was never any evidence to support their assertion that there was any actual involvement from AHS. Because there was never any actual involvement from AHS.
WRD Mod: "The kids in these pictures are not being abused in the pictures and I think it's a misnomer to suggest that they are "child porn" but they are certainly unwelcome. All of the evidence that AHS members are involved in these attacks is circumstantial at best, and would also be consistent with someone attempting to frame their community. " // [ORIGINAL THREAD] // [ARCHIVE]
3. As expected doing something as stupid as sharing child exploitation material would not get a subreddit banned.
And what a surprise it didn't get WatchRedditDie banned.
 
They're Trying to Wash Their Hands of This Again
But do not take these statements by a member of WRD as a sign of integrity or remorse. This mod knows from experience that by allowing his sub to push claims that he knows to be untruthful he would be inciting WRD's rabid user base and those of other hate subs into harassing the mods and users of AHS both online and (hopefully) offline. This is merely another belated attempt to wash their hands of the harassment they incited.
WRD Mod: "I didn’t say “Don’t blame AHS guys”" // [ORIGINAL THREAD] // [ARCHIVE]
 
So Who Did It?
I'm not saying that WRD or their mods had any involvement in making these actual posts or that they actually false flagged themselves, but that they have continuously recklessly and dishonestly claimed that it was AHS without any evidence. They pretended that there aren't many groups and users on 4chan, 8kun and other websites who would target WRD just for the "lulz" because they knew that they would react violently, instigate drama and immediately blame the people they collectively hate the most (AHS). And there were certainly users who faked evidence after the fact to push this false narrative. Like this user who had their account suspended shortly after faking a conservative with an admin. // [ARCHIVE]
They also pretended that there aren't hate sub users on Reddit who think that (rightly or wrongly) that WRD is run by "cucks" who have sold out and compromised their values and would therefore have a motive to do so.
And WRD was forced to instruct their users to not share what they claimed was child exploitation material.
And it appears that for some hate sub users all they need is an excuse before they start threatening to distribute child exploitation material.
And the "anti-porn" sub's alibi that "anti-porn" crusaders wouldn't go near porn is also very flimsy.
EDIT: A mod of conservative admits that the only evidence they need to accuse and convict AHS of committing an extremely disgusting and serious criminal offense is to show that AHS has different opinions than they do. And if you read this section, you'll also note that they again are openly lying because I have not accused WRD of posting these images.
conservative mod: "If you don't want WatchRedditDie to think you are posting CP to their subreddit, maybe stop openly petitioning for their subreddit to be shutdown." // [ARCHIVE]
 
Watch Reddit Become a Martyr
So after inciting their user base and those of many hate subreddits into grabbing their pitchforks and harassing us, they're now in the process of clutching their pearls and playing the victim. So instead of stepping up and actually moderating their sub, and take actual action to discourage their users from making posts and comments reiterating these false allegations, and from making countless posts smearing the users of AHS as pedophiles, they instead are attempting to martyr their sub.
To push this narrative they began to automatically remove all comments and posts and require everything to be approved manually. You got that right, Reddit's Free Speech Absolutists now have one of the most heavily censored subs on reddit. And they're having this tantrum because they claim that they are be treated "unfairly". But they’re not only this to push a narrative, they're doing this to deliberately antagonize their users into antagonizing the admins.
Another moderator makes takes these extremely bold and unsubstantiated claims a step further.
Other users continue to push the narrative that they are being unfairly targeted by the admins.
"I think it’s time we abandoned our accounts." // [ORIGINAL] // [ARCHIVE]
"Reddit is now banning subreddits based not on violations of TOS or content policy, but based on userbases. It’s clear that the admins fucking hate this sub, but it’s too scummy even for them to get this sub banned. So they’re taking out their anger on us by banning newly created subs which many watchredditdie or even some consumeproduct users frequent. Which is why we must abandon our accounts."
 
What about Watch Reddit Die?
Whenever a hate sub gets banned hate sub users flock to WRD to ask "What about X, Y, Z" these subs aren't banned, therefore hate subs are being treated unfairly. A hate sub and/or WRD user is physically incapable of acknowledging that hate subs get banned for a reason, and they immediately try to deflect, blame others, create conspiracy theories and claim that Reddit is simply biased against "conservatives".
They claim there is some sort of "hidden policy" and that the admins have some sort of hidden agenda. When the truth is that these so called "conservative" subs are actual naked hate subs that incite harassment, discrimination and violence against marginalized and vulnerable groups. The only "bias" is in the hate subs themselves.
But the truth is the subs who are shown the most leniency and are the ones who receive the greatest benefits are those those like the_donald and WatchRedditDie. So what about WatchRedditDie? I have now documented three hoaxes they have created to harass AHS and TMOR. But we're far from the only people they've harassed, and yet they are still going strong.
 
V A L U A B L E   D I S C U S S I O N
Normally we don't share the hate mail this subreddit receives. A lot of it is petty, repetitive and relatively easy to ignore. Even subs that aren't of a controversial or political nature will receive some level of hostile participation.
I have limited this to around 200 examples which represents only a fraction of the abusive and threatening messages that we have received in the last couple of weeks alone - due to the baseless allegations that have been spread about us.
For illustrative purposes I have included a small number of examples of hate mail and spam that makes up the vast majority of our regular hate mail, "you guys are nazis / fascists / communists / socialists / stupid / sensitive / snowflakes / safe space / echo chamber / honk honk / you do it for free etc".
Where available I have noted where these users had been encouraged to join in this massive harassment campaign against us. PoliticalCompassMemes followed WRD's lead early and their mod's have been instrumental in this campaign as like WRD they have refused to moderate their subs and have allowed them to be used as vehicles to push these vile lies about us. us.

2020.03.11 21:14 BlancheFromage Let's talk about that persistent rumor that Ikeda is of Korean ancestry

This is one of the most fiercely taboo subjects in all of SGI.
Why?
WHY should this be a problem? Why should this be OUR problem? If Daisaku Ikeda is of Korean ancestry, why should any of us feel obligated to cover that up? Isn't that deeply weird, anyhow? Why should anyone be ashamed of his ancestry??
The history, in a nutshell. The Korean peninsula is Japan's closest neighbor to the not-north. It's near Sado Island. During the Pacific War, so many of Japan's men were conscripted into their armies that there weren't enough men left to work at home, so many Korean "guest workers" were brought over to fill their jobs. There is a name for them: zainichi. Although their descendants have been there in Japan for a few generations now, they're definitely second-class citizens - they aren't allowed to vote, for one thing. Although they're a miniscule proportion of the population (half of 1%), they form 40% of the yakuza crime syndicate.
The Japanese word "Zainichi" itself means a foreign citizen "staying in Japan" and implies temporary residence. Source
People of Korean descent are the largest minority group in Japan.
During Japan's colonial rule, some Koreans went to Japan looking for economic opportunities, while others were taken there as forced laborers. By 1944, nearly two million Koreans lived in Japan, though most were repatriated after Japan's defeat in World War II, and the number fell to fewer than 600,000 by 1947. In 1952, the Zainichi were made to choose between South or North Korean citizenship, and were recognized as permanent residents of Japan.
Chung's parents settled in Iwate prefecture in northern Japan. While she was growing up there,Chung remembers, most of her classmates were told by their parents not to associate with her.
"Once when some kids threw dirt on my dress, my father said, 'Who did that? You should fight against them.' But my mother said, 'Don't blame them. It's the parents who didn't teach them."'
When she entered junior high school, a teacher ordered her to adopt a Japanese name. Other Zainichi in her class, who used Japanese names and hid their real ethnic backgrounds, faced anguish at graduation ceremonies when certificates were handed out in their Korean names. Source
We'll come back to that "bullied" angle later - hang onto that.
All the bios of Ikeda include the detail that his family's 10 children included 2 adoptees, though these are never identified. Why make a point of that? The narrative of Ikeda coming from a poor family is flatly contradicted by the fact that his family was obviously affluent enough to take on another two mouths to feed! Wouldn't it be far easier to simply say that the Ikeda family had 10 children? In the Angelina Jolie/Brad Pitt family, which has 3 biological children and 3 adopted children, every story about them identifies them as "six children". No distinction is made between the adopted children and the biological children. Granted, that's from a different time and a different culture, but the fact that that fact is carefully noted without any further expansion is peculiar. Take a look at how the Daisaku Ikeda site has changed this detail:
Ikeda was born in Tokyo, Japan, on January 2, 1928, the fifth of eight children, to a family of seaweed farmers. Growing up during World War II, he endured firsthand the suffering and devastation of war, including the death of his eldest brother who was killed in action in Burma (present-day Myanmar). This experience as a teenager gave birth to a lifelong passion to work for peace and root out the fundamental causes of human conflict. Source
Yuh huh. Ikeda has now erased the fact of those adopted children - why?
Here is an interesting speculation: What if Daisaku Ikeda was one of those two adopted children, and he was zainichi? Are any of his siblings even left alive by now? Who would contradict Ikeda's new story?
The tale of that fateful meeting between Toda and Pappy Ikeda sounds like a textbook yakuza recruitment - and Pappy Ikeda sounded glad to be rid of Daisaku!
Toda met and talked with Pappy Ikeda Soichi Yamamoto, Daisaku Ikeda's Shin'ichi's father, for the first time in his life. After the customary formalities of introduction, Toda said: "I should like for you to give Daisaku Shin'ichi to me."
Pappy Ikeda suddenly found himself saying: "I think that I can safely give Daisaku Ikeda Shin'ichi entirely into your responsibility."
"And I will be completely responsible for him; rest assured of that," replied Toda with a smile. "By the way," he continued, " there is an extremely good offer for marriage between Daisaku Ikeda Shin'ichi and the young Miss Kaneko Mineko Haruki." [Toda talks] Pappy Ikeda Soichi Yamamoto agreed at once and remarked: "I've just given him to you; do as you please." Toda was delighted with the answer and with the way he and the reputedly stubborn Pappy Ikeda Yamamoto had come to an amiable agreement in a short time. Read more here - from here
Notice that, while Ikeda blathers on and on in raptures about "mothers", he rarely mentions "fathers"? NO ONE in Ikeda's family of origin ever joined the Soka Gakkai, you know. For all of Ikeda's worship of father-figure Toda, he hasn't a single word to say about his own father. Dysfunctional family much? See some of the drawings of Ikeda mooning over Toda in the comments here.
I tell u wut - when we recently watched the Korean movie "Parasite" (which won multiple awards), I was struck by how the older Korean actor who played the father of the grifter family, Song Kang Ho, brought Ikeda to mind, the physical resemblance. It was uncanny, to say the least. I had no thoughts of Ikeda in my mind when we sat down to watch this much-buzzed-about foreign film - I've always loved foreign films - so when the father came on and I immediately recognized a strong resemblance to Ikeda, it was a striking revelation. Here are the first 10 minutes of "Parasite" - you can see what you think. The connection came out of nowhere for me.
I don't get that when I see Japanese actors - not even close. Never have - and I've seen a lot of Japanese films. "The Seven Samurai" is a longtime fave. And I've never had the slightest thought about that, never connected anyone in that flick with, "Hey, that guy resembles Ikeda!"
Here is a collage of pictures of a Korean male - look at the square picture upper center and compare that to this childhood picture of Ikeda (front row, second from right).
I realize it's a huge minefield trying to identify Asian people - even Asian people have trouble telling each other's origins apart, I've heard. It's not so easy as, say, identifying which of these is an Indian man and which is a Norwegian man.
One of the distinctive features of the Korean face is supposedly "high cheekbones":
These three nationalities of people may look somewhat similar but if you look closely, you will notice some real differences in facial features. The Japanese face is generally longer and wider, while the Korean face has a more prominent jaw and higher cheekbones. Source
I've often noted Ikeda's sharp-enough-to-cut-glass cheekbones - Ikeda clearly has those, even while the rest of him is sloppyfat:
Image 1 inauguration - closeup and from the side
Image 2 - 30s with birthmark/mole guy
Image 3 - this is 1979 - Ikeda is 51. Hojo, behind him, is a few years older. Notice Ikeda's more prominent cheekbones. I believe Hojo is ethnic Japanese - I've never seen any question of his heritage, though I've read that a high proportion of Ikeda's top lieutenants were Korean.

Ikeda's parents - can you see any resemblance?
As you can see in the example below, the non-Japanese SGI members are expected to adopt the same prejudices and outrages that Ikeda feels:

You spend almost all of your time on Reddit at sgiwhistleblowers. The people there are so lacking in critical thinking skills that they think that articles from Japanese scandal sheets claiming that Daisaku Ikeda is a Korean gangster (and just think for a moment how racist that is in a Japanese context) are credible evidence to support their obsession. Take for instance this post which also talks about "Jew controlled drug lords". But the most striking thing about sgiwhistleblowers, even more than its malice and racism, is how infantile it is. There is no point arguing with people who have no respect for facts.
Stop wasting my time.
Mee-YOW!! WHY is this AMERICAN guy so worked up about Japanese racism against Koreans? It's neither his circus nor his monkeys. Whenever people expect you to adopt their beefs against others and take sides when you don't have any dog in that fight, WATCH OUT. This is simply NOT anyone-in-America's problem!
Notice that Monk, above, has obviously heard this rumor, too. WHY is it so prevalent??
Here is some evidence:
A magazine published by SGI in March 2000 cites an interview to Ikeda. "I have a memory of my father teaching me Korean," he says in the interview. Source
Was Ikeda's father a zainichi in a mixed marriage with a Japanese woman? Was Ikeda's biological father zainichi, but he died and that's why Daisaku was adopted into the Ikeda family? Who renamed him "Taisaku" (fat building)? It was Ikeda himself who later changed his own name to "Daisaku", meaning "great building". So modest, from the very beginning!
It is rumored that Daisaku Ikeda's original name was Song Tae Chak or Naru Tasaku.
Ikeda's pet political party Komeito has, as one of its platform planks, suffrage for zainichi - extending the right to vote to the Korean residents in Japan. One of the way fringe political movements try to gain followers is by offering what the marginalized groups want, trying to gain their support. If the Komeito somehow won the right to vote for the zainichi, guess which party those zainichi would be voting for??
But back to Ikeda. Here's part of the problem with the zainichi - and it includes an optics problem:
When the Treaty of San Francisco came into effect, Koreans residing in Japan lost their Japanese nationality overnight.
That treaty was signed in 1952; Ikeda as a zainichi would have immediately felt that slap in the face. An unwelcome new identity had just been attached to him, and nothing he could do about it!
Despite such circumstances, the government of Japan has restricted Zainichi Koreans' human rights. In this capacity, Zainichi Koreans have been subject to deportation like other foreign nationals, and the government of Japan has added nationality requirements to social security and welfare provisions and excluded Zainichi Koreans from public office.
THIS explains handily why Ikeda has never sought public office. He created a political party, the Komeito (now New Komeito or Komei), in order to gain control over the government (didn't work), because the only way HE could become the all-powerful ruler was by changing the Japanese Constitution and laws such that someone like him could take it, take over.

And getting the zainichi "normalized" to the point they'd be permitted to vote alongside the Japanese would be an important hurdle to overcome. Never managed that...
Such measures of exclusion employed by the Japanese government have only encouraged discrimination based on nationality and ethnicity in the private sector.
Note that, in 1952, Ikeda was already working for Toda, and only worked for Toda or the Soka Gakkai from then on. Did this become a necessity for him once his Japanese citizenship was revoked?
In Japan, nationality is defined by the Nationality Act. Japan's Nationality Act strictly applies jus sanguinis (right of blood), and, as a rule, children born in Japan do not receive Japanese nationality if their parents are foreign nationals. Likewise, descendants of Zainichi Koreans who had been deprived of their Japanese nationality in 1952 on ethnic or racial grounds do not receive Japanese nationality unless one of their parents is married to a Japanese national. The principle of jus sanguinis in Japan's nationality law functions to exclude Zainichi Koreans from Japanese nationality on ethnic and racial grounds. In this sense, Japan's nationality law may be described as ethnocentric or racist.
Under such nationality law, there are cases of fourth- or fifth-generation Zainichi Koreans who remain foreign nationals. Among Zainichi Koreans who had been deprived of their Japanese nationality in 1952, there are families with the history of more than a hundred years of residence in Japan. Source
First, he claimed that only those Koreans and Taiwanese who transferred their koseki to Japan proper before 1 September 1945, or who naturalized after that date, should be eligible.28 Second, he expressed security concerns about the electoral consequence of upholding suffrage for the ‘2 million Korean residents’. Implying their connection with the Japanese Communist Party (JCP), he warned that their ethnic block vote could be ‘linked to the philosophical issue’ and that ‘those advocating for abolishment of the imperial system are probably Korean nationals who reside in Japan’ (cited in Mizuno 1996). The first of these motives can be interpreted as an emphasis on the degree of incorporation of former colonial subjects, while the second is an expression of a perceived security threat. SOurce
Ikeda married a Japanese woman, so at least his children would be Japanese citizens in the meantime. Toda arranged this marriage; Ikeda married Wifey on May 3, 1952. The Japanese government's revocation measure, which removed zainichi citizenship, took place on April 19, 1952. Coincidence? Marriage to a citizen often serves as protection against deportation. And Wifey's family was Soka Gakkai, so they'd of course do what Toda demanded, even if 1) they knew that Ikeda was zainichi, and 2) the union was breaking a social taboo (keeping the two ethnicities separated).
Keep in mind that Ikeda is notoriously vindictive and vengeful.
"Ikeda never forgets to exact revenge against those under whom he has served in the past or those who have bullied him. He definitely exacts revenge. To get revenge is his unparalleled joy. Source
In recent years, antipathy towards [zainichi] has been stoked by internet trolls, sensationalist media, and the silence of the Abe administration. And like the Jews in pre-war Nazi Germany, they are blamed for all of Japan’s social and economic problems. 2 Channel, Japan's 4chan, is filled with conspiracy theories about them. Source
So put all of this into the blender, hit frappé, and here's what comes out:
Ikeda was born zainichi in Japan and was bullied throughout his schooling on that basis. He developed a megalomaniacal drive to get himself in a position of wealth and power from which he could then punish those people who'd bullied him as a child. This urge coalesced into a plan to take over Japan. Because Ikeda was forbidden under law from running for office himself, he created a political party to do his bidding.
Ikeda felt it was dishonorable the way Japan knelt in abject submission before the American Occupation. So he added onto his plan - he'd take over the USA as well via his cult (which of course no one would be able to resist because they'd all be in thrall to him because of course) and install his own second-favorite son Hiromasa as President of the United States. THEN he'd use the USA's might as world superpower to take over the rest of the world!
It was perfect.
Ikeda would exact all the revenge - on everyone. He'd finally be on top and nothing anyone could do about it.
Where were the most Japanese? Japan, Brazil, and the USA. Easiest to sell a Japanese religion for Japanese people to Japanese people. And the USA just happened to be one of the world's top superpowers. Cha-CHING!
Kansai is the heart of the kosen-rufu movement in Japan; Los Angeles, in America; and America, in the world. Ikeda
That's why other countries' Soka Gakkai colonies were known as SGI-[country abbreviation] while the US colony was known as "Nichiren Shoshu Academy" ("Gakkai" meaning "academic society") or "Nichiren Shoshu of America".
But everything rested upon the proper foundation being laid: Ikeda taking over Japan as its ruler - that had to be accomplished first.
So, you see, it is only natural that a Japanese homegrown religious cult led by a cultural outsider will have as its objective to take over Japan and the world ("kosen-rufu"). It's for our own good, you see...or at least for Ikeda's "good" - he thinks that will satisfy his cravings, you see. Boy is HE wrong... Source
Too bad, so sad. Ikeda never got what he wanted...
