@cisgenderhaver@Winnower_ i don't perceiving you to deserve it, however i'm raised to express (my?) truth in an honest way, often times to my own detriment
@cisgenderhaver@Winnower_ i mean i don't want to sound harsh or anything but you managed to break a part that is at least 1 inch thick made of forged steel so imma be on insurance's side on this one big dawg
@hecubian_devil especially rome is in sad state of affairs, (a duoply of sort) not only an extremely traditionally conservative native population but also influx of immigrants from south eastern asia (bengali, hindi etc.) who generally tend to be culturally/religiously super conservative
@hecubian_devil i would also like to add that historically there has always been a steady influx of queer folks (in general) immigrants from south of rome/naples to the north due to discrimination etc. (sort of red/blue states dichotomy present in the states)
@finger_puppets one in a nihilistic way (indifferentness of life, thematic of murakami's overall body of work), the other in a way that has resolution (seeking redemption by raskolnikov, javert's overwhelming sense of guilt for his actions) /3 /end
@finger_puppets even hope), the latter deals with sense of justice/righteousness (in pretty murky characters, javert of les miserables or raskolnikov of crime & punishment). authors of both murkakami's era and hugo's era deal with aspects of the human condition but in opposite way /2
