Such an excellent photo, too

Cool. Publish the list of subscribers.

We are the only ones who could realistically stand up and change anything. Nobody else is coming to save us.

This is correct.

Cool, guess you’ve done all you can. Great work. Sit back, have a coke, watch tv. Be very proud of all you’ve accomplished.

Come on, at least call me a keyboard warrior. You guys are going off-script.

Can’t wait for all the Americans who haven’t done a thing to stop him or to fight his voter base to show up and loudly proclaim that they don’t support this.

Will also get a nice shitty side of “well what do you EXPECT me to DO?”

If they feel safe leaving their homes, you’ve failed.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki were not a bad call.

As for your second point- in this situation is it acceptable or justified? Fuck no. Is it tactically the correct move, given what these pieces of shit are trying to accomplish? Yes.

Oh, it absolutely is. I’m not saying the attack is by any means justified.

Flawed?

I would take enormous offense if this comment wasn’t dumb as hell

To be clear, FUCK Israel-

but if you’re going to do this, this is the way to do it. War is hell, and the objective should be to do whatever is necessary to bring your opponent to the table for surrender or negotiation as quickly as possible and avoid a prolonged engagement. In any other era we wouldn’t even be discussing this.

Again, though, for those in the back- fuck Israel.

He was a great politician. He was a terrible human being.

Self-inflicted crisis

Go suck a dick, really- we have been shouting for about 25 years that exactly this was going to happen and you told us “fuck off, you’re America’s hat”

It’s not a crisis, it’s just backwards-ass ethnonationalist bullshit. Disabuse the Japanese populace of the goofy “only Japan-grown rice is suitable for our very special and unique Yamato bodies” nonsense and the crisis disappears.

On top of this, given that:

Ultimately, Japan will need to figure out a long-term strategy since the average age of its farmers is 69, and the farming population has fallen by half over the past two decades to 1.1 million in 2024.

There are a LOT of people in Japan who would like to start (or take over existing) farms, but the system is stacked against anyone who isn’t a citizen. The Agricultural Land Act requires approval from local committees that favor established farmers- and the dinosaurs in rural villages would prefer their communities disappear than bear the horror of living next to foreigners, making it nearly impossible for newcomers to acquire farmland. Even forming a farming company demands that over half the directors be certified local farmers- a unrealistic hurdle given the circumstances. With no dedicated farming visa and no institutional support for newcomers, they’re “protecting tradition” at the expense of these same traditions by blocking foreign residents from contributing to its disappearing agricultural sector. Shit’s wild.

What the hell is with the last few years and suddenly nobody knowing that “worse” and “worst” are two different words with different meanings?

Counterpoint: no, you

Authorities suspect the group was targeting the LGBTQ+ community. The arrested teenager was in possession of child sexual abuse material.

So exactly what you’d expect
