The tendency of some Japanese right-wing racists to defer to the United States while directing cheap racist hostility toward non-white people, as if they themselves belonged to a supposedly “superior race,” can be understood through Ibn Khaldun’s analysis of how the defeated come to imitate and idealize their victors.
Yet even these Japanese racists are not entirely unaware of this contradiction. Deep down they must know that this is nothing more than a pathetic imitation. The tragedy for us Japanese is that over the past 80 years we have failed to develop an intellectual vision that would allow us to break free from this condition.

“The vanquished always want to imitate the victor in his distinctive characteristics, his dress, his occupation, and all his other conditions and customs. The reason for this is that the soul always sees perfection in the person who is superior to it and to whom it is subservient. It considers him perfect, either because it is impressed by the respect it has for him, or because it erroneously assumes that its own subservience to him is not due to the nature of defeat but to the perfection of the victor.”
Ibn Khaldun, The Muqaddimah

people underestimate how much elon musk has pushed radicalist right wing views including racism and islamophobia and how normalized it has become......it even seeps into other apps to the point where people with their names and faces up are OPENLY supporting hate crimes

Every Podcast: We have two hosts and a guy to do the technical stuff

H3 Podcast: We have 15 guys and it's not clear what exactly they are for. They are the most boring people in human history. We also get fewer views than the average Hasan stream.

Showing the Twitter fight to my black friend so she stops dragging me to every Japan related event ever

What’s even the point in being some Jew’s mistress it’s not like she’d get spoiled

pov you are a radfem woc:

@joesphill30219 We say down you say which tower

I swear everytime I see a Muslim Korean I think of that insane salafi guy lmao

The person scolding you for “antisemitism” (aka saying free Palestine) has a timeline full of the most aggressive Islamophobia you’ve ever seen in your life.

I choose peace of mind

Me while Twitter of Babel crumbles

the percentage of the Muslim and Jewish population in the US is about the same, between 1.1 and 2%, yet open and explicit racist hatred is only expressed and normalized by the media and political class against Muslims. You can mock their names, you can say they're all terrorist barbarians, you can say they should be deported, they don't belong here, they're an alien cancer, you can raid their homes as was done with Ilhan Omar, you can arrest them, you can do whatever you want to them, and still be elected a member of the House, the Senate, and President. You can be a chief advisor of the President, like deranged lunatic Laura Loomer.

The media class will not touch you at all. You will not be made unelectable and shunned from public life if you do all that, as we can all see with our own eyes.

Now can you imagine anyone saying about Jews what they say about Muslims being elected dog catcher anywhere, let alone a member of the House, Senate or President?

That's a hypothetical question. Without even anyone saying that about Jews, but merely being critical of the Israeli death-cult, the entire media fabricated hysteria about OMG THERE IS RACISM HERE OMG OMG RACISM is solely focused on purported anti-Semitism, from both parties, and across the ideological spectrum. That's the sole focus. The only conversation about racism is about anti-Semitism. The only one. Both the Republican party under Trump and before, and the Democratic party under Kamala and Biden and Obama and anyone else, is wholeheartedly committed to "ending the scourge of anti-Semitism", they will do anything in their power to "end anti-Semitism", Zohran Mamdani will give millions in funding to genocidal Zionists to "end anti-Semitism".

Now if you attempt to explain why this is the case, they will say that too is anti-Semitic and end your life.

I need to be incredibly honest with you: they didn’t have phone
