  • Is KFC for Christmas even a thing in the US? As far as I know that’s a unique thing in Japan and the result of a marketing campaing, not cultural exchange, and the rest of the world was just as much affected by the coca cola campaign that made santa’s clothes go from green or brown to red.

    And it makes sense. Japan doesn’t even really celebrate Christmas and it is still today vastly overshadowed by the japaneae new year celebration following it.

    I live in Japan and don’t see much resemblance to the US anywhere. Maybe that they are the only other country than the US where people care about baseball, and that people like Disney. Japan is very conservative in its own culture.










  • Replacement theory is a conspiracy theory about white replacement in western countries, not a place where a real minority is the target of a large amount of hate. The South African minority white people have not ever been part of this conspiracy theory. Lumping them together is dangerous logic often used in genocide denial.

    Is genocide happening? I don’t know. If people are claiming to be victims, then it should be taken seriously even if they’re white. So here we are, someone asked “what about the other ones”, got downvoted, and people start arguing “no, it’s not real” because a few of them weren’t real.
