The real culprit behind all fascist movements
  • All liberal capitalists want a full on chain of commands and dictator level control over their domain employees. The only difference is that they want “market forces” to force people to work for them instead of violence.

    Japan to criminalise cannabis use
  • I don’t think the youth of Japan should pop out kids. That’s what the leaders want. The youth want a better life, which if provided, would probably make them want to procreate more (not that they have to).

    My point was that cannabis is not gonna have positive effects (my guess) given how things are and how little chance there is for young people to have financial stability and comfort.

    Young women are more liberal than they’ve been in decades, a Gallup analysis finds
  • Of course they will, it’s not on them to do so differently.

    Imo it’s on democrats and “left leaning parties” to appeal to young men and maybe put similar attention to men’s issues as they do for women’s.

  • I mean, you can define it differently for sure, but modern politics basically use left and right wing as whether you want more hierarchy vs equality. Once you established that, the question becomes, do you force that by authority or do you do systems thinking to get the environment to encourage that.

    There are right wing people who believe in small government. They want hierarchy and “better” people to be on top, they just either want the market to decide (old school cons) or by taking it by force (GQP).

    But I do agree with you, right wing politics will always end up with a minority having most of the power, the how is what separates Trump vs Cheney.

  • Yes, which is what differentiates them from the old country club conservatives, they don’t just have right wing views of the economy, they want a leader with absolute power.

    Which is why it’s so dangerous and we shouldn’t be taking about left or right wing but authority vs freedom.

  • Right and left wing are not the same as authority and lack of authority, it’s actually a different dimension (as shown on political compasses).

    Japan’s issue is their hierarchy and authority, them being right wing is not really what makes cannabis incompatible.

    Idk where the right wing connection came from

  • I am very, very pro cannabis and I was not joking.

    In my experience, cannabis does make you question authority and being told what to do (to be fair, that might just be how it affects me).

    I’ve been to Japan, there is a huge culture of respect and following authority and just trusting the authority has honour. Psychoactive substances encourage you to think twice instead of trusting authority based on tradition.

    Just my two cents.

  • I actually think it would be detrimental to Japanese demographics.

    They are already having a hard time trying to convince young people to give up their freedom and pop out more babies. Weed would only make them think more clearly, not blindly.

  • Does he mean what I think he means or is he saying he will buy her a child cause that’s how he thinks money works?

    Or does he mean he will give one of his children?

    There is no good implication.
