the weak should fear the strong

Absolutely wild, ty for the explanation

My ningen, what? I need some context to this; all I kinda remember is that shinzo abe was a Japanese official of some sort? PM or something?

The real reason I’m apeirophobic ^^^

Fair point!

I mean if their intent was to ask a community that was explicitly international, it might be in good faith. That being said, I don’t see any implication of that in their actual post, soo…

For what it’s worth, I personally find discussion about foreign politics interesting if it’s something that I can learn from, but there’s for sure an inundation (and normalization) of US politics on a lot of different social media platforms, and that gets old.

You are a guntleperson and a scholar, friend

I don’t know whatever the fuck is happening here, but I need to know if this is a media reference so I can immediately binge it

Thanks for the summary and the links!

THE WEAK SHOULD FEAR THE STRONG

Holy fuck this made me completely fucking lose it lmao

hard agree. I think the only way we can improve our lives and the lives of those in our communities is to unflinchingly believe in the fact that we deserve better, and we can get better

Ah Yes, another fine addition to my reading list.

seriously though, we live in a late-stage capitalist hellscape and it’s always funny to be when people use government monitoring fears to justify removing core social safety nets while simultaneously Walmart, Google, etc. Know when your balls ache because they have collected data on you from when you were prepubescent.

I’m actually not not into the idea of being able to instantly and accurately judge the needs of a whole nation of people. I mean shit, we already collect so much data through smart watches that once we are able to accurately measure metabolic rate, that’s like 90% of it right there I think lol
