For me personally: I really enjoy tiktok. My feed is curated enough over time that I only see stuff I'm genuinely interested in, comedy, science, tech, fitness and ofcourse skimpy dancing ladies. I do not suffer from the so called propaganda on it.
I agree that tiktok melts brains of teenagers, but so does Instagram reels, facebook and YouTube shorts. So that isn't a tiktok issue in itself anymore.
I like tasty gourmet food. But I also like junk.
I genuinely like a big Mac or a domino pizza. Are they as good as a gourmet burger or a wood oven pizza? Not even close. Can I enjoy them regularly? Absolutely.
My grandfather for sure. No way he would be able to understand the current cultural climate. He basically died from getting worked up about stuff the entire time in the late 90s. I'm 100% sure he never stopped rolling around.
Lived in Japan for more than 2 decades. Never saw one.
Japanese cities have a surprising lack of green tbh.
Or even better, donate to wikipedia. I know I just did.
I use a seedbox abroad and secure ssh to transfer stuff to my own server. Don't see what additional security a vpn would give me.

I use swiftkey. I type in 3 different languages daily (even in individual conversations) . Swiftkey does this very simply and automatically. Almost no fucking around with changing languages. It just does it by itself.
Would love to use other keyboards, but none of them comes even close if you need multiple languages all the time.
Half the foreigners survive on the shitty education system though. No need to organize mass deportations in Japan. Just stop English education and 50% of white guys are gone instantly.
Could just write your tweets in notepad you know. If you don't want anyone to see what you do.
I use windows. I haven't paid for a windows key since windows 7 iirc. Windows has been free for years. (I know you pay with your data etc. Good luck convincing average Joe who uses all social media services that this even matters)
