     @eee @RaHoWaJoe >why is it always sonic
     Sonic is the modern James Dean, embracing the need to rebel and the live fast die young mentality, which is unfortunately fitting for transvestites and other sexual deviants.

     @eee @RaHoWaJoe From a critical perspective, Robotnik and his roboticized army is an allegory for the pervasive system which seeks conformity through the loss of individuality and obedience. Of course that's a funny thing to see on paper because it's just a video game and libtards are simply their own repressive counter-revolutionaryforce (ironically much more oppressive and less variable than the loose coalition from the center rightward).

     @BowsacNoodle @eee @RaHoWaJoe Also that big extended universe with a ton of characters is appealing to autists, trvst me as one myself, thankfully I grew out of Sonic as a kid.

     Why does Sonic endure? He predates zoomers, but here we see them fetishizing Sonic.

     @pepsi_man @RaHoWaJoe @eee His constant need to go fast resonates with Zoomers, a generation who came of age in the digital era and who fetishize instant gratification and share an addiction to high time preference dopamine hits. Even the name Sonic and his mantra of "gotta go fast!" fit as perfect mantras to a generation who has only ever known busyness as the ideal state of man.
