Eh, always having a sook about something or other. Someone was claiming Taylor Swift fans were the same as Jews in Germany in 1938 the other week.What? I'm sure there's some context here I don't know about. Is this about titties again?
The usual claim is that Hades 1 Aphrodite makes her face look "manly". Personally, I think it's a consequence of the shading and pose (the way the arms are posed makes her face look more angular in a way that doesn't give a very feminine impression) they're using that's unflattering.I just don't even know what they want anymore. Do they know what they want?
Weird choice for a group simultaneously accused of being white nationalists, given that they're not from Japan and Japan is generally very not white.They've been pushing the whole 'Japan understands' narrative for a couple of years now.
You know what, QAnon or otherwise if someone can provide actual evidence that an election software company is doing anything with their software other than accurately counting votes, or can show that they're getting funds from candidates and the candidates paying them are tending to win then they absolutely should hand it over to the relevant LEO and also make the evidence very public. That of course assumes such evidence actually exists.
White nationalists tend to love ethnostates. See also their love for Israel.Weird choice for a group simultaneously accused of being white nationalists, given that they're not from Japan and Japan is generally very not white.
It is weird, but these folks tend to have a heavily distorted understanding of Japan, often filtered through otaku culture rather than the reality of it. I suspect more than a few would become disillusioned very quickly if they had to live there for an extended time.Weird choice for a group simultaneously accused of being white nationalists, given that they're not from Japan and Japan is generally very not white.
Japan is also ~98% ethnically Japanese, so you can see why there might be a certain affinity there.Weird choice for a group simultaneously accused of being white nationalists, given that they're not from Japan and Japan is generally very not white.
Yeah, look at all those gamers that Sony is literally lynching, right? Strange fruit indeed....
That depend on the demagogue. The Italian fascist at least seems to realize she has a country to run and has done her duty in terms of opposing Russian aggression, and as horrible as the Polish PIS party was they too realized Putin was a danger to them. Trump and Orban however chose to slobber all over Putin's lap rather than regard him as a danger and a competition. Trump seems particularly gleeful to directly sacrifice American interests to Putin.And indeed it's very common. For example, autocratically-inclined nationalists the world over esteem and admire each other: Meloni, Orban, le Pen, Trump, Putin, etc. and all their supporters. The reason being is that all look at each other and see people like themselves - helped by having general common enemies (i.e. liberal democracy and internationalism). At the same time they also kind of hate each other and would slit each other's throats (well, invade) at the blink of an eye, because nationalists of different nations.
I've actually been looking into that, because claims on the internet are always worth checking, and that statement is slightly misleading. 97.8% of the Japanese population are Japanese citizens, but as long as you're a citizen the government statistic bureau doesn't much care about your ethnicity. There's no doubt that Yamato Japanese make up a large proportion of that 97.8% figure, but there's still a lot of ethnically Chinese and Korean folks, indigenous natives, descendants of naturalized foreigners, mixed kids, etc. that are also part of that percentage. The remaining 2.8% are explicitly non-citizenJapan is also ~98% ethnically Japanese, so you can see why there might be a certain affinity there.
No, more in the realm of this...

Poland is a slightly different matter because Poland and Russia have a border and a particularly difficult history, but yes Meloni is an exception to the rule. It might be conviction, but might just be she's in the same sort of place as le Pen and Wilders, but with less baggage of past comments and quicker to align with political expediency. Meloni is I think a bit cannier and pragmatic than many of her further right bedfellows (or required to be by circumstance): more willing to be or appear co-operative.That depend on the demagogue. The Italian fascist at least seems to realize she has a country to run and has done her duty in terms of opposing Russian aggression, and as horrible as the Polish PIS party was they too realized Putin was a danger to them.
