Subtext is thoughts not expressed directly in the text such as emotions and tension. It is the unspoken content under the spoken dialogue. Subtext can be used to imply controversial subjects with a metaphor or subtext can be used to explain a characters inner thoughts and motives. Often subtext is used in explicit themes that are unable to be expressed due to censorship.

The subtexts in a narrative, which convey underlying themes or messages beyond the literal meaning, can be referred to as "subtext." In literature and film, subtext often reveals characters' motivations, societal critiques, or emotional undercurrents. Additionally, in the context of dialogue, subtext can imply what is not explicitly stated, adding depth to character interactions.

"Ghost in the Machine" typically refers to the philosophical concept of mind-body dualism, but in the context of video codes, it often relates to hidden messages or glitches in digital media. These codes can manifest as Easter eggs, glitches, or unexpected behaviors in video games and other digital content, hinting at deeper narratives or subtexts. The term suggests the idea of an underlying consciousness or presence influencing the machine, inviting players or viewers to explore beyond the surface.

No, of course not. Anyone showing Urotsukidoji to a child, for example, could probably be arrested in many countries.While most animated films seem targeted to children, there are many animated films that are actually intended specifically for adult audiences. There are existing animated films that are pornographic or extremely violent that are most definitely not intended for children. Also, many animated films, while ostensibly intended for children, are made by adults who have fun slipping in adult subtexts, thus rendering the film accessible at different levels to both children and adults. Many Bugs Bunny cartoons are prominent examples of this.

Aloha: In 1887 the Bayonet Constitution was forced by armed Caucasians. The new constitution made voting rights only for Hawaiians, Americans, and Europeans this denied the rights for Japanese and other groups. The Japanese commissioner worked to pressure the Kingdom to restore the rights of Japanese by amending the constitution. In 1893 the Hawaiian Monarchy was overthrown. Continued presence of the Japanese Navy and Japan's opposition to the overthrow led to a concern that Japan might use military force to restore a queen, Liliʻuokalani, to her throne. Anti-Japanese sentiment developed amongst the annexationist government, press, and Americans over concerns that Japan might reverse their progress to annex Hawaii to the United States. In the 1890s, worrying about the increasing Americanization of their US-born children, the Japanese set up the first Japanese schools in the United States. In Hawaii, Japanese is a major language, spoken and studied by many of the state's residents across ethnicities. It is taught in private Japanese language schools as early as the second grade. As a courtesy to the large number of Japanese tourists (from Japan), Japanese subtexts are provided on place signs, public transportation, and civic facilities. The Hawaii media market has a few locally produced Japanese language newspapers and magazines,but these are dying out, due to lack of interest on the part of the local (Hawaii-born) Japanese population. Stores that cater to the tourist industry often have Japanese-speaking personnel. To show their allegiance to the U.S., many Nisei and Sansei intentionally avoided learning Japanese. But as many of the later generations find their identities in both Japan and America, studying Japanese is becoming more popular than it once was. Once as high as 43%, the Japanese population now is around 17%.
== = yes! Anything they are accusing you of, they are doing themselves In the narcissist's surrealistic world, even language is pathologized. It mutates into a weapon of self defence, a verbal fortification, a medium without a message, replacing words with duplicitous and ambiguous vocables. Narcissists (and, often, by contagion, their unfortunate victims) don't talk, or communicate. They fend off. They hide and evade and avoid and disguise. In their planet of capricious and arbitrary unpredictability, of shifting semiotic and semantic dunes - they perfect the ability to say nothing in lengthy, Castro-like speeches. The ensuing convoluted sentences are arabesques of meaninglessness, acrobatics of evasion, lack of commitment elevated to an ideology. The narcissist prefers to wait and see and see what waiting brings. It is the postponement of the inevitable that leads to the inevitability of postponement as a strategy of survival. It is often impossible to really understand a narcissist. The evasive syntax fast deteriorates into ever more labyrinthine structures. The grammar tortured to produce the verbal Doppler shifts essential to disguise the source of the information, its distance from reality, the speed of its degeneration into rigid "official" versions. Buried under the lush flora and fauna of idioms without an end, the language erupts, like some exotic rash, an autoimmune reaction to its infection and contamination. Like vile weeds it spread throughout, strangling with absent minded persistence the ability to understand, to feel, to agree, to disagree and to debate, to present arguments, to compare notes, to learn and to teach. Narcissists, therefore, never talk to others - rather, they talk at others, or lecture them. They exchange subtexts, camouflage-wrapped by elaborate, florid, texts. They read between the lines, spawning a multitude of private languages, prejudices, superstitions, conspiracy theories, rumours, phobias and hysterias. Theirs is a solipsistic world - where communication is permitted only with oneself and the aim of language is to throw others off the scent or to obtain narcissistic supply. This has profound implications. Communication through unequivocal, unambiguous, information-rich symbol systems is such an integral and crucial part of our world - that its absence is not postulated even in the remotest galaxies which grace the skies of science fiction. In this sense, narcissists are nothing short of aliens. It is not that they employ a different language, a code to be deciphered by a new Freud. It is also not the outcome of upbringing or socio-cultural background. It is the fact that language is put by Narcissists to a different use - not to communicate but to obscure, not to share but to abstain, not to learn but to defend and resist, not to teach but to preserve ever less tenable monopolies, to disagree without incurring wrath, to criticize without commitment, to agree without appearing to do so. Thus, an "agreement" with a narcissist is a vague expression of intent at a given moment - rather than the clear listing of long term, iron-cast and mutual commitments. The rules that govern the narcissist's universe are loopholed incomprehensibles, open to an exegesis so wide and so self-contradictory that it renders them meaningless. The narcissist often hangs himself by his own verbose Gordic knots, having stumbled through a minefield of logical fallacies and endured self inflicted inconsistencies. Unfinished sentences hover in the air, like vapour above a semantic swamp. In the case of the inverted narcissist, who was suppressed and abused by overbearing caregivers, there is the strong urge not to offend. Intimacy and inter-dependence are great. Parental or peer pressures are irresistible and result in conformity and self-deprecation. Aggressive tendencies, strongly repressed in the social pressure cooker, teem under the veneer of forced civility and violent politeness. Constructive ambiguity, a non-committal "everyone is good and right", an atavistic variant of moral relativism and tolerance bred of fear and of contempt - are all at the service of this eternal vigilance against aggressive drives, at the disposal of a never ending peacekeeping mission. With the classic narcissist, language is used cruelly and ruthlessly to ensnare one's enemies, to saw confusion and panic, to move others to emulate the narcissist ("projective identification"), to leave the listeners in doubt, in hesitation, in paralysis, to gain control, or to punish. Language is enslaved and forced to lie. The language is appropriated and expropriated. It is considered to be a weapon, an asset, a piece of lethal property, a traitorous mistress to be gang raped into submission. With cerebral narcissists, language is a lover. The infatuation with its very sound leads to a pyrotechnic type of speech which sacrifices its meaning to its music. Its speakers pay more attention to the composition than to the content. They are swept by it, intoxicated by its perfection, inebriated by the spiralling complexity of its forms. Here, language is an inflammatory process. It attacks the very tissues of the narcissist's relationships with artistic fierceness. It invades the healthy cells of reason and logic, of cool headed argumentation and level headed debate.
