InceptionState (npub1tsy…c657) Leaf Lord (npub1jac…zppv) Mister Coonster (npub1pg0…7rcu) Springtime for Zeon (Woggy Mk II) (npub1lnz…k8dk) I agree. It's not that wuxia or Eastern literature is inherently bad, it's that it's being written by rat utopia goblin men with poor classical literature understanding who grew up arguing about the 17 ranks of the sound kekaku fox lords of the baofeng mission to kill the god of thunder for Saske and Naruto to be friends again or w/e anime they watched too much of to escape their crushing lives dominated by classes to learn skills they had no passion for, but were auspicious for their parents to proclaim to their "friends" in horrible little pissing contests. Not dissimilar to how the Western middle classes used to brag, not about having maids, but about not having Maids of All Work for the more specific the maid's duties, the more affluent the masters must have been.
Like the west, the Easterners often have this weird, 3rd hand backing in a lot of their own cultural traditions because of the structure of modernity being antithetical to the transmission of culture, religion and identity so they, like us, rarely produce authentic and good transmissions of it themselves.
The total degradation of culture, faith and human kind is not unique to the west. It's just disproportionately intense based on how recently your civilization has reached internationalism.
