@pharekore @Emily19655848 Guys your analysis is too simplistic. This is a bigger crisis whose solution is more than just telling people to eat less, move more. There are emotional, social and psychological dimensions to obesity. Even in Japan obesity rate, while really low, is steadily increasing.

フィリピンで肥満が急増。20~59歳の成人肥満率は、2023年の39.8%から2025年には44.5%へ上昇。女性、都市部住民、富裕層ほど高い傾向に。
一方で成人の約10人に1人は慢性的な栄養不足状態。
「食べ過ぎ」と「食べられない」が同時進行する地獄に。

Are we hyping the presence of the Chinese floating platform in Bajo de Masinloc? Of course not. We have more than enough basis to say so, because the Chinese government has always been good at lying—especially when it comes to denying its true intentions in the West Philippine Sea.
Here is a video of Wang Yi in Manila in 1995, where he claimed that the shelter China built on Panganiban (Mischief) Reef—well within the Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone—was for civilian purposes only, and would remain so even in the future. But look at that same reef today: a massive illegal reclamation that is now one of China’s largest military bases in the entire South China Sea.
Their claim that they care about the marine environment is just as hollow. They showed no such concern when they bulldozed and buried the reefs and seabed to build their illegal bases across the South China Sea.

@maharuinph An American imposed hero but I don't think you're ready for that conversation.

@benrhiatt @Alonso_GD So what should be enough then? And for you to say that 1 million people isn't enough to be considered a separate culture by itself is a disrespect and borders on erasure.
English

@Alonso_GD There are 25K Ainu and 1.4M Ryukyuan living on the edges of Japan. They are a combined 1.1% of the Japanese population. I don't think that is enough to make Japan not monocultural.
English

The “monocultural” Japanese society he is referring to was still actively hanging these signs around the necks of children who spoke Ryukyuan languages or any Japanese regional dialect as recently as the 1930s

Japan is a monocultural society and they still have World Cup matches and food from all around the world.

@kd_tky @Alonso_GD Hello can you enlighten us more about proletarianization and what it means from a Japanese perspective
English

@inarchus @Alonso_GD Unfortunately, this subjugation was brought about by social Darwinist thought arriving in Japan. The West really fucked up Japan in many levels.
English

@inarchus @Alonso_GD Yeah Japan is not mono cultural. Just like any group of islands in the pacific, there are a lot of separate peoples and cultures. The wa /Yamato people just decided to subjugate other people's so that their culture not the Ryukyu's, not the Ainu's becomes the dominant one.

@SleepX247 @imtheatan As if ang basta meron lang ay sapat na. Baba naman ng tingin mo sa sarili mo at sa mga Pilipino.

@SleepX247 @imtheatan Ngek. Kaya nagkaroon ng bill kasi may public clamor pero yung actual bill magmagpapa igting pa ng dinastiya. Maglalatag ka ng panukala para meron lang na panukala pero yung espiritu ng batas wala. So saan banda hindi naging inutil ang kongreso. Ipagtatanggol mo pa.

The public is pretty skeptical about the new anti-dynasty bill or House Bill No. 8389.
Watchdogs are calling it "pro-dynasty" because it is packed with loopholes.
By only banning immediate family up to the second degree, it completely ignores extended relatives like uncles and cousins.
Plus, because of a jurisdictional blind spot, a family can still vertically lock down a whole province as long as they are not running in the exact same tier or town.
The irony is not lost on anyone, especially since the main guys pushing it to fulfill a long-delayed constitutional mandate are Speaker Bojie Dy III and Majority Leader Sandro Marcos — and let’s not sugarcoat this — both are from massive political clans.
Their original draft actually went up to the fourth degree, but it got seriously watered down just to survive the Lower House.
In this video Majority Floor Leader Sandro Marcos calls a spade a spade: the House is packed with dynasties.
He basically admits that a stricter bill would have been “dead on arrival”.
For him, this lax version was a necessary, pragmatic compromise just to get the foot in the door, pass the House, and let the Senate tighten the screws later during the bicameral conference.
