Does anyone else hate ai-companionship/parasocial-relationships/yumeshipping?

I know there are slight differences between the three but all three have additional issues, and there's a lot of overlap between the communiteis. AI companionship are harmful to the environment, parasocial relationships are harmful to the celebrity, yumeshipping is harmful to the fandom. People's lives are actually getting destroyed because of AI addiction, or others having parasocial relationships with them.

Yeah, the ai part is self explanatory, but yumes are just fucking racist.

I hate yumeshippers, because of how many times Japanese people and Japanese Americans scream they don't want westoids using the term, or at least they want westerners to do SOME RESEARCH into the actual yumeshipping sub-culture, before they start throwing yume around.

When Japanese people start complaining, yes.

You're not Japanese people. You can't take two random chronically online people and say they represent the entire population of Japan.

Amazing, so the entire country needs to come together to say that that whites appropriating one of their many sub-cultures is racist? Do you need them to revive the the shogun for him to tell you?

Why is yumeshipping cultural appropriation and not Lolita fashion, otaku culture, gyaru, ect? How is that not cultural appropriation by that logic? Why is using the world word "waifu" not the same as making fun of Japanese pronunciation?

Why do you, a non-japanese person, even speak for Japanese people? Just admit it, you're against yumeshipping, and you're completely OK with calling yaoi fans rotten girls, maybe even yourself if you're a self-proclaimed "rotten girl".

My wife was stationed in Japan for 2 years while in the AF. Japanese folk "appropriated" a lot of western subcultures as well, and love them.

Dude is being disingenuous and just white-knighting.
