I’ve put a fair bit of effort into trying to understand the Japanese perspective, because as a northerner it frankly displays an odd contrast of values to me, being extremely sexually liberal, while also holding firm to tradition and social responsibility. It appears to me as though they manage this by maintaining quite clear social boundaries regarding empathy for each other’s individual perspective, and so they don’t appreciate when things which hold a strong sentimental place in many people’s hearts, such as the master of anime’s unique style, or a Shinto shrine in a popular video game, are portrayed in an uncharitable light within the public sphere.

The tools matter because of the sheer volume of content which literally any meth head can produce, which has already severely tainted the whole online ecosystem, and will only get worse.

I just think it’s funny how being kind to front line workers, because they aren’t the people being assholes, is one of the most common memes on social media. Now though, because people are caught up in the hype, they’ve completely forgotten their own ideals and lash out at those they have previously declared to be their friends.

This is the kind of behaviour that leads to religion, because having an actual hard coded set of rules gives the victim the ability to point to something physical to say “hey, we’re supposed to be your friends jackasses” when these sorts of things happen.

That’ll show those minimum wage slaves.
