Comment on Why is the community for Honkai Star Rail and Genshin Impact like this?
PunchingWood@lemmy.world 1 week agoThat’s the thing, the whole waifu crap.
Like people talk about it as if they’re real persons and treat them as such. It’s borderline psychotic.

The thing abaout “waifu culture” is that most people do not actually think or act like fictional anime characters are real people. They do it to troll, or be funny, or act stupid, whatever. Like circlejerk subreddits or other online boards where there is some joke that gets perpetuated that everyone in the community thinks is hilarious but everyone outside thinks is stupid.
Yes, there are a tiny few that do, but not a significant number of people actually think that way.
