@m_takewaka Since you have a great Prime Minister hopefully that will change. I would fly your flag anyway if I were you. There should never be shame about being patriotic.
My friends in America, in Japan, expressing patriotism is met with shunning. For example, if I put a Japanese flag sticker on my car, police officers will stop me for questioning. I only display the flag at my front door on Japanese holidays. Almost no one displays the flag at their home on weekdays. This is due to the past excessive claims made by the Japanese right wing, but don't you think it's natural to show patriotism to the country you were born in?
@EricLDaugh NATO was to protect from the Soviet military from rolling over Europe. That threat was gone 30 years ago. We don’t need to waste our money on Euro trash countries that hate us.
🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL: NATO was just put ON NOTICE by Sec. Marco Rubio
"If NATO is just about US defending Europe if they're attacked but them DENYING us basing rights when we need them?! That's NOT a very good arrangement."
"That's a hard one to stay engaged in...so all of them are going to have to be reexamined, all of it's going to have to be reexamined."
What does NATO even do for America in 2026?
🇯🇵💬 Why do Japanese people like the traditional American way of life?
At least for me, I’m not interested in some imagined version of America shaped by shallow experiences or one-sided ideology. Especially not the kind pushed by the left, rooted in a form of white guilt that, in my view, ends up benefiting communists without offering anything meaningful.
In the same way people overseas are drawn to samurai, we’re drawn to things like cowboys.
I also feel that people who embrace a kind of political correctness based on wanting to offend no one and be liked by everyone are, in some cases, struggling internally. I’d rather they learn to like themselves first, instead of trying to control everything around them. Even if traditional American culture were erased, I don’t think that would make them any happier.
What I find compelling is the real America—the one rooted in its own history, culture, and traditions. That’s why I want America to stay truly American.
The bromance between Japan and America reached new levels this weekend as we bonded over grilled meats and mass deportations 😌

@BillyCookn@Half_A_Pond Clever as your guy fucking his own economy up his rectal cavity before at last going to hell, truly a masterful gambit sir.
Also better a snow mexican than a yankee with a loss streak against farmers.
With the latest revelations from ODNI we now know the truth: Democrats never wanted to stop the war in Ukraine because they have been using the war as a money laundering scheme to kick back billions in American tax dollars to fund their operations.
This may be the greatest, most corrupt scandal in American history.
@freeman_gav@DefiantOutlawX I took that death machine to the limit. That SOB tried to kill me. I survived barely. I loved it. I will always love it because it made me feel alive.
