Governments in any nation - France deefinitely not excluded - are self-serving and following the wishes of the rich, but the common French people have always had balls!

You know that their Asian neighbours also have low birth rates, right? Then it's simply shifting the issue to another area.

Really depends on the society. South Korea, for example, is definitely genuinely threatened by its way too sharp decline - including culturally. Otherwise I agree that negative effects are generally overexaggerated and that the future will inevitably demand less human labour.

European governments and the EU definitely don't care about us, their citizens, but most do see the threat coming from USA these days, thankfully

How is that a "crazy theory"? Information control is not directly tied to capitalism but to any form of regime. The Western model and social media is, of course, strongly tied to capitalism and the desire for economic growth. How does that add to it?

There is no better regime than the West in this regard. Force things on people? You're gonna risk a revolt or dissent. 'Subtly' make people dependent on your product so they'll voluntarily use it and share everything with you while you 'subtly' control the algorithm in your favour? Now that's perfect. Social media is the ultimate tool of power and governance.

Although North Korea is a very "successful" oppressive regime, largely able to have full control over information both in and out of the country and to greatly limit desertion. I can't think of a "better" regime in this regard.

This is it.. how about these dudes stopped preparing for the apocalypse that they themselves are causing, and instead changed the reality they've created, thus preventing said apocalypse from taking place in the first place..

Just to be clear though, it's not a state programme. But fuck Germany's stance on Israel for sure..

You know fully well that vaccines make frogs gay. It's a protective measure not to use them!

For real, what is wrong with you?

Huh? I'm not even from the UK or a royalist 😂 what is up with your stupid assumptions? Go touch some grass fam

"Never"? This is literally the only comment of mine you've ever seen 😂 bro, don't tell me there's not pleeenty of criticism of the Catholic church going around. By far the most scorned religious institution in the West.

Now what does this have to do with criticism of a pervasive issue in Japanese culture? Do we have to attach a list of every problematic institution every time criticism is given, or do you just have a weak ass mental? Bring an argument rather than ad hominem and we might actually have something relevant to talk about. Otherwise you're just a tosser.
