Lmao that weeb is still “I’m an expert”-ing about japan after getting politely slapped down

https://www.resetera.com/threads/at-least-18-people-injured-in-kawasaki-stabbing-incidents-in-japan-majority-of-them-were-children-update-2-dead-suspect-died-in-the-hospital.119360/page-2#post-21171934

I'll note since someone asked about mental health in Japan: It's really, REALLY, hard to get or find clinics that offer support in Japan. While things are a little better than they are in the past, it's still a really difficult place to find help. People in the mental health field have talked about their frustrations about this. Also, there's all sorts of medications that are banned that are notably for treating (or helping specifically) certain conditions that result in certain mental health problems. People who've gone into Japan have ran into issues bringing prescriptions because of this.

Do you speak Japanese and/or live in a medium or large city? It's pretty hard to find clinics that offer psychiatry/counselling in English (and the ones that do are very expensive), but I found it incredibly easy to find good care as someone proficient in Japanese. There were at least 10 clinics within a 20 minute radius of where I lived (granted, that's in central Tokyo). However, when I lived in a small town of 35k or so, it wasn't hard for me to get to a mental health clinic to get my prescriptions. The town nearby of 150k people also had multiple mental health clinics too. Getting support in English is hard, Japanese isn't.

Out of curiosity, what medications are you referring to? Japan does ban a ton of narcotics/benzodiazepines, etc. (I'd argue that nobody should ever go on benzos for longer than a couple weeks, but that's a different discussion..), but quite a few medications that are banned can be legally obtained from a Japanese doctor once in the country.

I personally had a great experience with Japanese mental health clinics/doctors, but maybe that's just my experience.

I don't live in Japan, but I'd been following a number of discussions on the Japanese side of things from people living there over the years. And most of the comments seemed to be mixed about the mental health care, even among therapists and stuff living there. So if your experience has been good, that's good to hear. I wanna say most of the comments were regarding outside of the Tokyo (Kanto probably as a whole), but I can't recall everything. But that might be the main difference between your experience and what I had heard.

Following number of discussions = watching anime and reading weeb fantasy forums

I didn't wanna make this its own thread out of fear of being called a "clickbaiter" or whatever, but there's something I recently noticed about Super Paper Mario that is very disturbing.

The villain's plan, as shown in the opening cutscene, is to open a dimensional rift that will eat the multiverse. He does so by making a chaotic, universal law-defying act happen - the wedding of Bowser and Princess Peach. Now, you may be asking, since when would Princess Peach agree to do that?

The answer? The villain's minion with mind control powers makes her say "I do"



Now, you may be thinking "That doesn't count as any form of consent!" I agree! However, this still counts as a "marriage" enough to open the rift.
What the fuck Nintendo.

If this has a better topic to post it in, I'm sorry, I will correct my mistake if it is one.

Thanks for the didactic explanation of Brazilian’s crime theory, but I still insist that there’re some glaring and dangerous problems with your interpretation. I am no criminal lawyer, but cyber crimes is a passion subject for me and I feel pretty comfortable talking about the subject, as a lawyer with ten years of practice and having studied cyber crimes do Brazilian’s legislation about it for years.

I’m not going to defend anything Jontron has said in the past, but he has largely walked back what he’s said and said he knows he doesn’t believe the things he said in that debate with Destiny. He’s a big time idiot but I think it’s a little disingenuous to imply that he is legitimately a white supremacist.

Does he know he doesn't believe those things? Did he start advocating for the rights of people in the border? Against Trump administration treatment of that people? Did he supported AOC or other new predominant Democratic people that fights for inmigrante rights? Did he openly criticize Alt-right members?

If you don't support AOC you're racist.

I found out that a member of my extended family (not a blood relative) is a hardcore #StandWithVic guy. Part of me thinks I shouldn't be posting about this, but I'm extremely disappointed, and it's challenged my guess that most of the people associated with this would have already been radicalized.

Notably, he was also (and still seems to be) passionately anti-Gamergate, although he wasn't the most well read on that, either. He bought into their fake attack-on-gamers origin story, but he didn't believe that was justification for harassment. So I was surprised that he was taking this stance, and he seemed to be surprised by me as well. He's been watching Nick Rekieta; another point of surprise was when I told him how the livestreams have harmed Ty Beard.

Since we seemed to be pretty entrenched in our positions, I just lightly explained why I took my position, and for the most part I talked with him about the facts of the court case. He was the one who brought it up, since apparently he was dying to find someone else who was familiar with the situation, but he didn't really try to convince me either. He just insisted that everyone on #KickVic was insane, and that #StandWithVic is misrepresented by claims that they're against women.

There were a few things he did that particularly disappointed me. When the topic of Nick Rekieta came up, I also mentioned the blackface. He was clearly familiar with it, laughed uncomfortably and danced around it for a bit, and then settled on something like "but he was at a party with a friend". Tangentially, he also joked - with a toddler, no less - that the easiest way for the toddler to mock him is to accuse him of being a white supremacist. When the first part of our conversation was closing, he said to me "so anyway, Vic will win, he's innocent, and even if he isn't he's good looking so the women should have enjoyed it anyway." That's almost verbatim.



I'm posting this primarily because I'm upset, but just in case he bumps into this post somehow, I'd also like to say the things that I should have told him earlier.

You're in an mixed marriage. When you left the living room, members of the family you married into were sharing stroies about being suspected of being possible terrorists by border security. Your son is biracial. The white supremacy you scoffed at considers him to be an abomination, living proof of genocide against the white race.

Instead of painting yourself as a victim because people said mean things to you over the Internet, instead of styling yourself as a saint because you've never put on a hood and robe, you should be trying to understand that people different than you have different experiences. You should be trying to appreciate that there are problems in the real world that risk affecting your loved ones, that might have affected your wife in the past, that might affect your son in the future.

As for "he's good looking so the women should have enjoyed it anyway". What you said to me, in effect, is that sexual assault against a woman is justified if by an attractive man. What's more, the woman has a duty to enjoy it. That is completely heinous and you know it is. This sort of justification is why the term "rape culture" exists; it's part of why sexual assault is underreported and difficult to prosecute.

I may be prone to sarcasm myself, but that doesn't mean that this situation is a joke. Think about the implications of what you said. God forbid, but think about what it means for your family. I've known you long enough to know that you love your wife very much. Imagine if someone was to approach her with that mindset, that if they're a handsome man, they can assault your wife and she's supposed to enjoy it. Imagine if your son grows up with that idea, that if he's handsome, he's free to assault women. Could you live with yourself if your loved ones had to face the consequences of the idea you shared with me?

Tell me again how it's wrong for you to be painted as a misogynist when you told me what you did. If you want people to see you as the good guy, don't take it for granted. Make an effort to actually be one. Up until this point, I've thought that of you, and I'd like to believe that you'll reflect on what you said and look back on it with shame.

So at the beginning of 2020 a global recession where manufacturing returns to US, thats a big win for the orange buffoon, right?

I mean, it would be silly of anyone to dismiss the influence of YouTube as a whole on popular youth culture... but someone like JonTron might as well be a cable access channel TV host for all the amount of actual influence he has on anything, especially as personality driven sketch content is being eclipsed by pop culture assimilated content and live streaming.

Nobody is going to fall into a rabbit hole of white nationalism based on JonTron's Trover advert, and this is important, UNLESS THEY FIND THE ERA THREAD in which everyone associates JonTron with white nationalism.

the whole point of giant bomb content is being able to get a bit of generic gamer news, a little bit of the more serious union/labor talk, some hardcore nerding out about some 80s random pc you never heard of before, and then a palate cleanser like dan talking about nacho cheese or saying "i didn't know metal gear was political i thought it was just about nukes and armies and stuff"
