I think the better question to ask is "Why do SJW's like capeshit?"
I guess for the actual hardcore marxists the “infiltrate & change” theories presented above could be true, it’s ostensibly for children. For the others maybe it’s largely the simplistic morality.

Were SJWs actually sperging on Joker or was that just media astroturfing? Because the complaints that stood out to me were that it made audiences too sympathetic to the joker, which is basically complaining the morality isn’t simplistic enough.

Why do you think they like capeshit?
 
Speaking of anime and race, we got any dipshit takes on Beastars yet? The central premise being Zootopia where the prey’s fears are at least partially justified and where the main character nearly kills and eats his love interest in a fit of homicidal rage.
 
“It's both possible, and even necessary, to simultaneously enjoy media while also being critical of its more problematic or pernicious aspects.”

Also this entire thread is full of No True Weebsmanning and it might just be the best honeypot in recent memory for this board.

You do have a point there, but you could've picked a better person to quote than Anita Sarkeesian.

One could imagine the quote was used by someone else besides Sarkeesian. Then again for problematic and pernicious aspects, one can only wonder how much of that is really from our own point of view and all anime. One could go on railing against fan service but then again, how much of that is just somehow getting upset over the size of tit fat vs legit reasons of how it makes one objectify women irl.

Unpossible, real women are disgusting.

Because anime is mainstream and requires zero effort to obtain.

Same thing with the alt-right weeaboos. All of these people really want to think of themselves as some kind of counterculture, but their choice of cultural refreshments belies the fact that they are the mainstream masses of our age.
 
They don't, they just like My Hero Academia.
In all seriousness, just look at Pedantic Romantic, he started talking about Social Justice and his views steadily declined, his gf who always talked about Social Justice never received much channel growth and only ever really gets views on vids that focus on something else.
You can't really sell SJW shit to anime fans who aren't already SJW's and those people are extremely selective to the point that they usually can't have a normal conversation with another anime fan, kind of pushing them out of the wider fanbase. These people can't really reside within a community without that community assimilating to their wider political hugbox and if they can't absorb it whole then their interactions with it will be sparse and limited to whatever their political hugbox deems okay, actively keeping them away from most shit.
Like the reason they'll never accept Naruto is because it's a show about trying to understand people even if you disagree as opposed to demonising them as evil just for the sake of being evil.
 
I'm honestly fascinated to find out anime is an SJW crusade now. I shouldn't be surprised seeing as how they're not happy unless they're infecting every hobby or interest they can, but man I've been out of the loop. Anime was always seen as something the nerds and geeks liked. Politics never played a role in it.

Like a few others have said, it seems capeshit attracts far more SJWs than anime does.

They may try but they won't get far, Japan could give a single shit what outsiders think, they make anime for Japanese audiences first and foremost.

You couldn't find a more successful anime in the US than Cowboy Bebop for example and yet all that success didn't lead to any sort of continuation since it wasn't as big of a hit in Japan (and the movie doesn't count as it was already released in Japan before the anime aired on US television)

So the idea of anime makers somehow caring what US progressives think is hilariously absurd.

What I can see happening though is more shows like High Guardian Spice, SJWs just trying to make their own "anime" basically.
