TFW a secret is indistinguishable from a garden-variety socmed post.

Do a lot of people say this manga is stupid?

Not that I know, but you could easily post this on Twitter and get dozens of impressions whether they do or not, because dunking on Japanese media in a lowkey racist manner is fun and socially acceptable.

This is true in general ("Stop it, Japan" has the same energy as the "Girls suck at math" panel of that xkcd comic; when a Western thing is gross it's "This thing is gross" but when an anime or manga is it's "Japan is gross") but doesn't apply to this secret? I would go so far as to side-eye generalizations about "manga" because manga as a whole medium is no more fucked up than Western comics, but the secret only seems to be talking about this manga.

No, I didn't say it applies to this secret. The point is it barely counts as a secret and it could've been just posted in public, because what with the above common sentiment people would've dunked on that manga with no prior opinion anyway.

Every secret here has some place it could be posted and get tons of agreement. These are things people can't say in the fandom spaces they belong to, not things that everyone everywhere would disagree with.

Not the anon your replied to, but part of your comment was "because dunking on Japanese media in a lowkey racist manner is fun and socially acceptable."

I totally agree it's not exactly a secret to post this, but you did say as part of your explanation that part of what makes it not a secret is because dunking on Japanese media in a lowkey racist manner is socially acceptable, which implies you think this particular secret belongs to that category of activity? Maybe you meant to say that people racistly enjoy seeing people dunk on Japanese media, regardless of the reason, and so OP's contributions would be welcome, not a secret they have to hide?
