It’s much easier for a state to unite a culture under monotheism than polytheism.
I’d rather wear sneakers to do a 5 minute trip, my feet are more protected and it’s comfier (more so in a wet and cold climate).
Another thing is the rapid Westernization Japan went through after the Meiji Restoration. Emperor Meiji didn't accomplish it just through industrialization but also culturally, by doing away with the more, ahem, out there traditions like ritualized homosexuality in the samurai and monastic classes.
>I'd rather save the 5 seconds it takes than to put on real shoes and be lazy, and then suffer the entire 20 minute walk
Religion in Japan is a complex topic that it could derail the thread so I'll try keeping it brief. Buddhism was introduced to complement Shinto as the latter did not provide the spiritual side of religion. After WWII, American occupation barred Japan teaching about religion and they became more secular. Devouts of any religion there are more of a minority than you expect but they do participate in rituals for a sense of community building. As I mentioned earlier, Japan did have their own version of untouchables because Shinto is autistic about cleanliness and someone has to do the dirty jobs. Paradoxically, they and East Asia, also have meritocracy in their culture so they believe you can work your way up (whether that happens in practice is another topic). Guess what India is lacking.
What do we know about Bali? I know they have a variant of Hinduism.
I honestly think the religion got in there because it got popular in China. A lot of the Japanese Aristocracy were China Simps from what I recall reading about. Especially during the early days.
Can someone compromise a playlist of bodycam videos of jeets getting arrested? I tried, just for fun, to search "Indian + police bodycam" but of course YouTube instead shows all other ethnicities getting arrested except for jews and jets.
I've seen reels of Africans even making fun of Indian streetfood. Some of them have been so well made I've seen them in compilations of nasty Indian street food videos when it has obviously been a parody. Guess it's very authentic that some autist doesn't even react that the person who dips his bare feet in brown slop and marinate something edible in his armpit before spitting on it is in fact a negroid larping as a jeet for fun.
Not a woman in sight. Pajeetas must have gone into hiding, knowing a street full of pajeets celebrating would mean it’s raping time.
Search YT for "Indian arrested in US."
What even is the point of this? I get sometimes renting an expensive car *can* be a boon for your business if you want to project a certain image of success so any prospective big project patrons think "if this person can afford this car their business must be booming, I can work with this person" (this one's free, even if it's a variation of dressing for the job you want) ; but as a timeshare you don't fucking get to use the car for this unless you happen to land a potential deal within the month you get it.
It's so they can take a few pictures for Instagram and make their friends think that they're rich. 30 days a year is enough time that they can book the car if a friend asks for a ride in "their" car.
I was going to reply "what about the next 11 months, if they ask for a ride are going to pretend it's been at the mechanic for nearly a year?" but then I realized I'm putting way more thought into this than a jeet ever would.
You're correct that it was Uganda in 1972, specifically under the regime of the Meme King Boss Nig himself Idi Amin. This didn't have a particularly positive effect on the country though, as while they were jeets, they majority weren't of the street shitting variety as they dominated the banking and financial sectors in Uganda since before independence due to the Brits purposefully educating them to be a class of middle management colonial governors.
