Seeker of truth and worthy adult entertainment (NO, not THAT kind, but no victorian 'holier than thou' here either, so i won't pretend i never go there), just well written, properly discussing complex problems, philosophical). ( mediocre) artist and writer.
Unapologetic to anyone without a spine (also known as self sufficient, sturdy minded adult who is not hurt by random disagreements, stupid jokes and unintentional insults, as well as people prying too far toward a 'problematic' topics that are either general or concern them personally), functioning brain, and an ability to discus and debate, aka victims or willing followers of moral relativism, post modernism and the rest of the post enlightenment brain melting garbage people seem to usually go by today. As in the stuff preventing them from seeing any real problems in the world and hopefully their causes, rather than their symptoms and byproducts... And preventing them from saying anything concrete and of substance, and have a proper, fact and reality based debate.
Random reminder that friend requests without ever talking are weird (apparently it needs to be said), not that it bothers me, just pointless to send the request.

Nihilism is usually depicted in such a shallow manner in fiction as to just be tiresome. Usually it works better if it's a facet of the work (for example, one character is a representation of a nihilistic view). In rare cases, if the work is sufficiently complex or significant, such as with Texhnolyze, then I don't mind it. I think cosmic horror is a good example of it. It helps you get into the mindset of what it's like to be without any meaning or hope, and it can be crushing when done well, but it has to be a very distinct vision. But nihilism is kind of a common trend in mediocre "deep" art. Nihilism without any vision or strong aesthetic is a very special kind of bad. Cyberpunk's brand of it is just so banal. And one needs a break from nihilism and would hope the market is not oversaturated with such a thing. It's alright as an occasional indulgence, but I'm afraid it permeates mass art to a much greater degree now.
With fictional rape, everyone has their perspective on how that should be depicted and perceived, and they become biased based on what their perception of the event is like, usually from a couple of second-hand anecdotes they're familiar with. People do have all kinds of different reactions depending on personality and such. What made it even more ridiculous to me was how unique the situation was in HD. The brother's brain in the sister's body. Who could possibly predict the reaction there? And even if it were an unrealistic depiction... Oh well... Usually we would say the author made a mistake in the writing, but instead he needs to expiate his sin because it's about something "controversial." There's a huge difference in the way people approach a character being murdered versus raped in fiction. For a lot of people to not get upset, the latter has to have a number of rituals accompanying it, whereas the artist is pretty free when it comes to murder.
