    Meanwhile Japanese people, for all their faults, put a fucking mask on when they get a cold because that’s seen as a decent thing to do.

          If you think America is bad, you really need to look more into Japanese Black Companies. They really take the cake on toxic work cultural. Imagine being socially obligated to get black out drunk with your boss.

            ‘If you think America is bad’ is wholly unnecessary when you consider that socialized healthcare hardly exists, public education is a living corpse of severely underpaid teachers, mass shootings (I’ve been in one), mandatory cost of car ownership, and so many other fucked up things.

            I’m not saying that Japan is a good place to live, because it has a myriad of it’s own problems and I personally wouldn’t want to live there. I just think we should give people some credit for the shit Americans put up with too.

    It’s still surprising to me that so few after 4 years of this still do not understand the airborne nature of respiratory illnesses especially Rona with all that has gone on.

    Then again I might be expecting too much from people…
