Title: 4ch makes disabled girls eroge; takes it seriously; what is this I don't even

You should read the article, but here's the short version: 4ch starts making a dating game where the entire cast is disabled, as a parody of Japanese fetish culture - but due to hearing stories shared about the trials of a real-life disabled person, the team ends up taking the plot and characters somewhat seriously. Is this exploitive or touching or what is going on here - oh God, people made this game and I am a person, too. :-\

since I turned 30 I've given up faith in myself and all humanity; immersing myself in 4ch culture seems like a better way to go than toaster-in-the-bathtub

Not surprising.  Considering that extreme yet saccharine submissiveness is the cornerstone of lolis, making them disabled seems to be a natural step.

We should make a competing game.  This would be a good time to finally make use of the awesome title "Professor Prole's Panty Patrol"

I say we create a bunch of animu characters with STDs and have a main character named Kosma who is capable only curing their STDs ironically through intercourse.

Usually they just go the "life-threatening disease" route, but I guess this works too.

I saw this thread today and I was not really interested in it because I knew it would be about stupid Japtards. But I accidentally clicked on it.

And I was right. What the hell is this now? God, Japanese people are so weird.
