   Why did Earthbound inspire so much faggotry?

     @PonyPanda @SerfnUSA In fact, I could probably get a Japanese fedi user like @ryo to verify that since they're more exposed to his works than we are.

     @PonyPanda @SerfnUSA He's pretty left leaning. He participated in a lot of Japanese social justice causes during his young adult years. And if you go on his Twitter or his personal website he does post a lot of neo-left stuff like COVID vaccines and being pro-Ukraine.

     @xianc78 @SerfnUSA what? Is he literally a commie or is that just what people are ascribing to him after Mother 3 and the whole capitalism critique?

     @SerfnUSA Because Itoi is a Japanese commie. Earthbound has a gay NPC (Tony) and Mother 3 is nothing but ancom commentary.

     @ryo @PonyPanda @SerfnUSA What about Itoi's other works. He's a huge celebrity outside of video games.

     @ryo @PonyPanda @SerfnUSA Fair enough. I don't even know most American celebrities either.
