imagine if you learned that japanese twitter was full of baffling memes about jfk that required a specific context that doesn't exist anywhere in america
Shinzo Abe must be spinning in his grave knowing people are out here trying to understand anglo memes instead of having sex
the funniest thing about these memes is i'm like 90% sure abe wasn't even that big on the birth rate thing, or at least not in the way that he was portrayed in all these memes
like, he was a conservative politician so i'm sure it bugged him but i don't think he was connected to any of the big things that the memes ascribed to him
Modern politicians are cowards, he should've had FDR style fireside chats encouraging people to fuck.
Very clear evidence the Japanese people are confounded by these simple instructions tbh, they even released an official statement
Sometimes I wonder about people from non english speaking counties coming across hexbear and being like
I had this for Lemmygrad but it's the same thing, I was wondering why the fuck a bunch of gay western communists were replying to my comments with "inshallah" and "mashallah"
Like the obelisk and apes scene from 2001 but from the perspective of the obelisk
Hexbear isn't in English, it's in Maoist chronically online vernacular
In most of Europe we do have a similar internet culture. Although, Hexbear is quite US centered
The European internet culture is people who are fluent in English hanging out on the Anglo internet and then doing the same things as there two years later.
honestly it's probably a good thing that japanese people see as little of what english speaking twitter users say about them as possible
We need a worldwide great firewall that keeps the anglos confined to their own little corner of the internet
Meanwhile in China they have "The Good Doctor" memes for some reason
If it's specifically the scene where the white doctor is throwing a tantrum and the Asian doctor is sitting in a chair barely reacting, I can see how that can be a meme for when the west throws a tantrum
I google it and it seems to just be a generally memed show, i think your thing is more the english version?
Show
"Amputate everything below the neck" is the caption
Coincidentally I was talking to one of my Chinese doctor friends who works in the West and she said that basicly the same thing happened to her but with a Neurotypical colleague. To quote her: "He's not doing that because he's autistic. Hes doing that because he's white."
I feel like something about that guy's performance in Good Doctor should be punishable by law but maybe I'm a self hating autistic
Because the actor's prbly screwed up his job or he intentionally type-cased the protagonist, "the Good Doctor", as ebil or unintentionally malicious for some reason...
I think it's gotta do with that episode with the autistic patient character....
The first pic is from some meeting between him and Putin. Putin asks who’s in charge of transportation and Xì replies with “the ministry of transportation” and Putin just nods lol
Japan is the one place you wouldn't ever have to say "NEED A DISPENSA HEA"
ok so shinzo abe, the former prime minister of japan had a reputation in some english speaking anime circles as a man obsessed with japan's birthrate (which is obviously a very fascist thing to be obsessed with) that started when wild stuff like darling in the franxx got made. there were a couple shows that had major plot threads about people learning the great power of heterosexual marriage and sex and procreation. so people made memes about him secretly sponsoring anime to try and get the youth to fuck without birth control. he was a conservative politician who definitely cared about the birthrate but this became his defining trait among some weebs, and every time an anime came out that had a cute kid in it people accused him of having his fingers on it.
when he died people had a field day with it as it related to this, and the pictured meme is a reference to cowboy bebop. it's like an in memoriam thing for him, where he's telling the viewer to have sex in reference to the popular perception of him. naturally if you aren't in western anime spaces that were constantly making jokes about "imma be real with you 57th prime minister of japan shinzo abe, this will not solve japan's declining birth rate" every new anime season when a show showed a happy family it would make no sense. this does include japanese people, who seem very confused by this long trail of memes about the former prime minister of japan
This was already funny without the explanation, but it's nice to understand what I'm laughing about
i mean darling in the franxx is so absurdly horny what other conclusion can you draw other than it being a government conspiracy
And not just horny to an absurd degree, but horny in the most absurd ways.
Mecha are piloted doggy style
it also went from a plot that was clearly headed for revolution to something weird and nonsensical really abruptly, like the studio got told no you can't air that, around episode 15 or so
obsessed with japan's birthrate (which is obviously a very fascist thing to be obsessed with)
White people try not to be obsessed with East Asian birth rates challenge (Impossible).
that started when wild stuff like darling in the franxx got made.
I remember seein' Shinzo Abe birth rate memes as far back as 2014 when this slap banger dropped
Demo was a funny guy back when I actively browsed fourchan dot org :) As for the short it's some navelgazey thing about how being a hikikimori is self fulfilling or something, usual from Studio Kara.

Shinzo Abe sucked and was a piece of shit for a ton of reasons, but if you're running a country with declining, non-replacement birth rates, being concerned about it isn't "very fascist."
It is when you are doing literally anything possible to avoid even considering immigration as a possible solution.
The CPC isn't fascist, has looked into various methods of encouraging higher birth rates, while PRC has low immigration levels. I hate that you're making me defend
here, but on its own trying to bolster birth rates, even with minimal immigration, doesn't make a country fascist.
Abe had raising the birthrate from 1.4 per woman to 1.8 as one of his policies.
