Genderfixing Comics

Yay, more recommendations for readers to browse!

Some writers and artists are much more female-friendly than others. I think they deserve to attract audiences accordingly.

There are many different branches of manga, each with its own tropes. Some have a very particular audience, so there are girl styles and boy styles and so forth. But there's also a surprising amount of crossover -- girls who read mecha stories and boys who read about magical girls, etc. I think that's cool.

That would be a nice shift.

That would be nice. However, in my observation, the smarter you are, the sharper your opinions, and the farther from the sheepmemes you are, the less people want to hear from you and the lower your chances of selling. Best bets are niche markets where you can find audiences who are sick of the everyday bleating that fills the culturesphere.

A discontiguous conspiracy, perhaps. Just a few large corporations own almost all the American media now, and thus control what information most people consume. Those companies aren't inclined to publish news that makes them, or big business, look bad. Ignorant people are more easily led in some ways ... at least until they form a mob, which they are more prone to do than educated people, and there is no controlling a mob. And if ignorant people get an idea into their heads, no amount of facts is likely to remove it. Ever. This can be a problem, but strangely, people rarely foresee that. They just like being able to herd sheeple.

It doesn't require the collaborative, conscious effort of a true conspiracy to create such effects. You just need a bunch of people who benefit from doing the same things.

It does. The public education system is largely influenced by business and politics, and somewhat by religion. It was originally modeled after factories, but in modern times, is shifting the model more towards prisons (which can also be for-profit now). This is not good.
