The article outlined reasons for that to be happening in Japan, and references India for similarity, it didn’t imply that that is a universal response to gender inequality, simply that the reason for that specific phenomenon in Japanese culture is likely because of gender inequality, which seems more than a reasonable conclusion to me, especially when you look at the 80’s business woman culture era and how there was a decline in that specific behavior.

Also, I’m very much not seeing what you’re saying about your interpretation of feminism being present in the article. Gender inequality is a thing, objectively, to address that as a part that plays relevance in any given context doesn’t require feminist values.

Meanwhile, the government: “That’s fucking stupid. We don’t poison you with the air, that would be inefficient. We have to breathe that, too. We just poison the water and the soil, and if you’re a target we will just pick you up off of the street like a stray cat, we’ve always been very up front about that.”

You’re right, we aren’t in Nazi Germany, we are in pre-nazi Germany. Literally doing the exact same things they were doing. The holocaust didn’t begin with Jewish concentration camps, it started with queer folks and immigrants at the hands of a hateful right wing government that does bad things and was voted in by democratic processes. They even outsourced their first concentration camps, just like we are doing with El Salvador.

Always keep in mind, if it’s free then you are the product!

That’s why my life, my love, and my lady is the sea.

This isn’t a Tik Tok.

Learn your history. There is only one way that fascisms has ever been stopped. Spoilers, it’s not voting or protesting.

Also friendship!
