I've been in a murderous mood since this morning

Tbh, I've idealized that country so much during my teen years, that as an adult today i'm eager to learn more on nuances in their society

yep

that's not the point of Kingdom Hearts

DMC5 is about style though the entire point of the game is to do combos to get style points

true, I'm really interested in studying Japanese society

I just wish we'd be more to see the pattern

yep

that's why populist leaders keep scaring people

without crisis, it can't work

because if the leaders fall then the entire party crumbles just like UKIP its an "ideology" that feeds on reaction to current events and only exists in situations of crisis

i'm studying this, but apprently populism is a quite feeble "ideology"/"movement" though

lol, as said earlier, those people don't care to be identified as nazis, some would even greatly accept it

?

hm

so people gather in communities against something they don't know, something they identify as a threat

impossible lol that's why they change history make up narratives to defend a "culture" and a "nation" even though nations are a fairly recent principles before people didn't identify as "french" or "German" but more from the city they were from etc We all have a need for belonging, but we also live in an extremely connected world, that feeds us fear, populism works on that because of the news outlets we can see all the bad things happening in the world

People, cultures have been mixing for centuries, but that would hurt them to admit it

The problem with populism is that they choose a point in history, and defend their "culture" or "ethnicity" from that point in time, defending the idea that people don't mix, and that a culture can be destroyed by another one. Many just go to the extent of retelling history and culture.

I had heard it before, but I guess that's because the guy who theorized it is a Frenchman I don't think they care or they'd tell it's different hell, some of them might even embrace nazism

people who lost their way

or those men in the far right that go into camps and believe in a great replacement of the white race etc

I had read an article, a while ago that basically explored the idea that nowadays, the youth doesn't have much "ideologies" and "utopias" anymore I mean we're witnessing how the world goes bad and that because of that, they pick more nihilistic ideologies and that's how we get kids who understand nothing about islam start jihad

yeah, we've been fed this narrative for years now, trying to make Muslims and Non-Muslims enemies why ?

I still am mad that the media refrains from using the "terrorist" term just because the perpetrator is a white man
