Exploration is ill-advised.
I've said before that a lot of stuff coming out of Japan like the massive age stratification and resulting effects like shut-ins and a youth culture well aware that they are held to impossible standards, are just them being slightly ahead of the curve of neoliberal rot. Though the need to have a liberal centrist facade over the frothing fascism seems to have staved off what I assume is the next step of a Brexit style nationalism-fuelled national self-destruction.

it has been very funny to see "anarchists" online saying there's no way to know whether every picture of peng shuai has men with guns just out of frame, based on the conjecture of "experts"

"What could the US government and the CIA possibly stand to gain from spotlighting and wildly making poo poo up about a tennis player?", I ask as US population willingness to go to goddamn war with a nuclear power doubles within 7 years and jumps a full 12 percentage points in 6 goddamn months.

I am very smart and media savvy, obviously.

I'm surprised the Ukraine support is that high. That kicked off 8 years ago now. I'd figure most Americans simply wouldn't care

"Literally" the exact same thing? Because I can pretty easily find political rape and sexual assault accusations being reported by the Japanese press.

The Japanese government has also repeatedly acknowledged and apologized to China and Korea for their war crimes. You can argue that they drug their feet or didn't atone as much as Germany did, but I don't know where you think discussion of it is being legally censored in Japan, even if there is a segment of hypernationalists that don't want to admit it. You can easily find japanese-language books on Amazon giving detailed and accurate accounts of their war crimes, written by Japanese journalists and historians.

Dude you are quite seriously the dumbest motherfucker in this thread. Please read something, anything other than Wikipedia on this topic and learn why these tepid apologies and cheap attempts to buy off survivors have been wholly rejected by the victims themselves

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.

holy crap msm really doing everything they can top make this into an actual international thing

also imagine the entitlement to think american media should have the same rights in china, or any other country for that matter, as they think they do in america

the same american media that famously whips up consent for illegal wars and probably other bad poo poo
