“Punch” is the name of the adorable baby monkey. There was no violence, thankfully. All of the animals are unharmed.

And the point of this idiocy?

It was later revealed that this appalling stunt was orchestrated purely as a promotional gimmick for a cryptocurrency meme coin.

    The Japanese quite famously do not take kindly to this or other kinds of jackassery.

      They let Johnny Somali walk out of Japan though. And the same for that other idiot that is now a boxer.

      Let’s hope they learned their lesson and this time give out an exemplary punishment

      That’s a lie. Every time it happens, they slap them on the wrist and sends them on their way.

      Korea on the other hand locks them in prison while citizens rough them up.

      Japan needs to stop letting “nuisance” folks get away with shit.

        I defer to you I do not actually know you are correct. I do know how I heard that Japan’s cursive system involved execution and that is it. Traditionally. There was like the death penalty and that is it the fuedal in Japan, hard world.

        As to the koreans, I worked at a place where there were Koreans and I would wave at them and they would snub me I asked someone and they told me the Koreans are very hierarchical and to not believe in acknowledging existence of those below them. Hold on
