Come fucking fight me China. I don't give a shit.

That's not the only way. Simply refuse 100% of the time to ever buy a vehicle where you have to get a subscription for nothing of value added. We have ALL the power here and we don't need guns (well, laws, ie men with guns who will force you into a cage if you don't comply) to enforce it, just don't be an idiot an buy one of these vehicles. I'll buy nothing but used cars without subscriptions if it becomes impossible to get a new one without bullshit subscriptions.

The demand is clearly high, so if it gets bad enough I guarantee another car company is going to start up and do things better, taking business away from idiots who try shitty practices for a short-term gain and a long-term loss.

Or at least if we're going to add a law, we need to take away two useless laws, as we have FAR too many.

Nope, I fucked up. The songs are in Japanese still, I just remember the English lyrics with the beautiful singing and misremembered. My bad.

Oh really? Let's hear why you think this, I bet it'll be good.

They are the same. I'm sorry that you see yourself so much in them that you feel the need to lash out at me, but if that works for you whatever I suppose.

The problem with talking about China is how hard it is for any news to get out of that country that they don't want you to see. I dated for a long time and nearly married someone from the Chinese mainland, and the stories are so sickening of how easy it is to get 'disappeared' I mostly blocked them from my memory. Of course Winnie the Pooh (Xi Xinping) has made things considerably worse and worse so I try not to even think about what they pull now, particularly with their infinite number of cameras and AI face recognition to make it impossible for you to be free in any way.

People have tried to protest several times there, but of course the CCP is quick to act against and disappear anyone with that kind of behavior. So a few months ago they had a more covert protest (though obviously it's going to get found out about) where they simply held up blank pieces of paper as a sign of protest, since they knew they weren't allowed to say anything bad about the CCP without serious repercussions. Good luck trying to find anyone who did that, as the government went after them and also put some other ridiculous measure in place that I can't recall off the top of my head.

If you have legit friends in China though, then you can get the skinny on what really goes on over there. Assuming they're not too scared to even tell you in code since everything is constantly being monitored. They're disturbingly close to a richer North Korea at this point unfortunately. Definitely don't believe anyone saying that censorship and detainment isn't constantly happening though. Criticize the CCP while in China? Good luck ever escaping, and if you have any close friends/family they will absolutely be used as hostages. The CCP will do absolutely everything they can to look good in the public light though, so their extreme tight control over information prevents us from hearing about so many things, and any accident caused by their shoddy construction, if it does get reported, will be said to have a casualty count of 18, when in reality 300+ casualties would be the very minimum possible death toll by the most optimistic possible estimates (like awhile back when an underwater tunnel flooded and you could physically see and count at least five times as many dead bodies from stealth-footage taken than the reported death toll actually was).

Fate/Zero and Psycho-Pass dubs are both very much superior to their subtitled counterparts. Fight me.

Fate/Zero and Psycho-Pass are two good examples where the dub is superior to the subtitled version. They mess up some of the meanings in the subtitled versions, like in Fate/Zero when Saber first appears. In the dub she says "are you worthy, to be my master?" Which is definitely the intended meaning especially once you get further into the show and know how she is, but the subtitles just say "are you my master?" which makes her seem not quite like a dumbass... but it does make you go "wtf kind of question is that?" Not to mention the actual performances. Gilgamesh's dub voice actor is absolutely perfect for that role, and while the Japanese voice actor is good, he just doesn't compare.

Similar things with Psycho-Pass. All the meaning gets across pretty well in both version if I remember correctly, but Makashima's English actor is irreplaceable for that character. His performance alone is worth watching the dub for and it's just so much better, which is pretty difficult because I watched it subtitled first and I already loved it.

I'm certainly not a subtitle hater though, as everyone knows there are plenty of examples where the dub is terrible in comparison. Then you have shows like My Hero Academia which are interesting, because on the Japanese side they have Tomura Shigaraki who is absolutely perfect for that role. Listening to him in dub is painful to me, as his Japanese voice actor is absolutely perfect in that role. Then on the other hand you have Twice, who isn't as disappointing to listen to in Japanese as Tomura is in English, but Twice in the English dub is NOT a performance you want to miss out on. It was so annoying watching that show when the two were in scenes together, I'd often switch back and forth between dub and sub just to get the full awesomeness.

All this is to say that it's really on a case by case basis, and I'd suggest checking out both dub and sub early on (if both are available) that way you don't get attached to the version you're used to. Start right and give yourself the best experience from as early on as possible.

I tend to agree. Although as a counterexample for not singing in dub, I present to you Angel Beats. I watched the English dub of that and one particular song that the main singer of a band sings made me cry from how beautiful it was. I'm sure it still would have had an impact, but there's no way it would have been as strong if they hadn't dubbed that song. Granted, a large reason for the crying was the episode in general and learning the story of the singer, but it's so fantastic in English that it seems like that was the only possible way it could be.

What's sad is that the same level of stupidity could be said about America with anything that someone is immature enough to get offended over. At least we don't disappear people all day every day constantly. If we keep getting offended by stupid shit then it becomes increasingly more possible though.

Well the CCP isn't exactly known for being smart. Or good at anything at all other than oppression.

If you're seriously questioning this, then the actual terrible laws and acts going on in China would BLOW your mind in... five.
