@CWC36218948 It's a good season in general for people who like different anime styles (Sayonara Lara, Ghost in the Shell, Jaadguar or DenMoku) but this one... I don't know, this is the one I'm circling every week and looking forward to the most
@Meme_Man_Shill@Msamalam It's even further than that, really. This is the terminal phase of a path dependency that nobody in office actually chose, not even the people in the BoJ or in MoF. They all inherited a machine that was built to run exactly like this, upon appointment or election.
Some people are having genuine crash outs over every single thing Chelsea do.
Iโm seeing people tweet several times for Andrey Santos. Genuine question, are you okay? Heโs a talented midfielder but has limitations and it wonโt take much to replace what he did for us, which wasnโt a lot.
If you prefer to live your life this way then fair play, you do you, but give me a break and judge responsibly.
You can have your moan all you want if they fail to get Lacroix, a good midfielder, and a good attacker, and fail to clear out the players holding us back.
And For those that are crying over Enzo wanting to leave, Chelsea literally want him to stay.
Until then why donโt you just chill out for 5 minutes. All of a sudden it seems that the squad no fans rated is now worthy of crash outs when we sell them.
@LysenkoMaoist@kato_hirohisa@MarxianReason I think if you want a more American-analogue, it's probably closer to compulsory flag-veneration laws or oath-of-allegiance requirements that get justified as "patriotic, not ideological". What Meiji-onwards does is more top-down bureaucracy than that.
@alalelelejerolo@gurumistar@AarinH2 To be fair, Doan also said "That's why we try to beat them with teamwork, because our individual level is not as high as theirs" or something like that.
@heydunyaliselam@masayasan201911 I was thinking, because she had a specific memory about "the ocean", that she and her brother was either Kipchak-Cuman or Circassian.
@kato_hirohisa@MarxianReason The government can control the frame (a ton of traditional practices, local kami and shrine lineages got destroyed after the Meiji era) but they can't really control people's reception to that frame, which is why we still get internet urban legends and new ghost variations
@kato_hirohisa@MarxianReason I guess what the state secularized was the legal-administrative status of shrine practice, but not the practice itself or people's actual relationship to it. The latter is ungovernable since kami-hood is protean and endlessly instantiable regardless of the gov't's feelings of it
@kato_hirohisa@MarxianReason The Archbishop of Tokyo resolved the standoff by ruling that Catholic students could participate in the rites as a civic rather than religious act. The Ministry of Education assured the Church that shrine visits had "only the significance of love of country," no religious meaning
@kato_hirohisa@MarxianReason An example I can think of is that, in 1932, a small group of Sophia University Jesuit students refused to salute the war dead at Yasukuni for religious reasons and the incident cost the university its military attachรฉ and damaged its standing with the government.
@SBalisang@Render1ng1898 The GEACS is more like an Asian Monroe Doctrine than how you're describing it, which sounds like Roman Empire-style annexation. The former is much cheaper to run than the latter, America has done it to the Western Hemisphere. It also wasn't proposed and failed, it ran for 5 years
@StevenEvidente@Render1ng1898 The policy was Tagalog AND Nihongo replacing English, not just Nihongo. That's different from Taiwan's kลminka, which aimed to erase local identity into Japanese identity
@s_pacefrog@Render1ng1898 The closest Japan gets to 'colonialism' is their exportation of the flying geese model to the Philippines via MITI, JICA & other FDI / ODA projects. It produced more long-term dependency-like patterns than whatever Japan did from 1942-1945. It's not satisfactory for me, though.
@s_pacefrog@Render1ng1898 Well, you're going to have to consider a lot of academe 'pure stupid'. There's some postcolonial circles who might extend the definition, I wouldn't agree with them personally, but if you want to reach for that, by all means.
@s_pacefrog@Render1ng1898 That's what occupations look like. If that's colonization, Germany colonized France, Norway & Denmark. Japan colonized Korea (35 years, settlers, forced assimilation). Japan occupied the AMERICAN Commonwealth of the Philippines (3 years, war extraction, no lasting institutions)
@s_pacefrog@Render1ng1898 Why don't you inform me exactly which extractive institutions that the Japanese set up in the Philippines during that 3 year occupation that is still doing actual structural long term suffering and damage to the Philippines to this day?
