It also directly goes to politicians through AIPAC

Housing isn’t really much of an issue in Japan. The actual issie with tourists is overcrowding, bad behavior, and the effect on food prices

I dunno if I’d have the balls to just roll into a tiny pub in rural Ireland without knowing anyone there.

Coincidentally, I did that a couple months ago. 10/10, would recommend. Everyone was super friendly and interested in why we ended up there, in a village of less than 100 people

Refuse tourist into many Izakayas for decades

I’ve been to probably 100 izakaya and never once been denied. This is the kind of bullshit you say when your views of Japan come from the internet rather than personal experience

Japan, unlike the US, shows final total price on the shelves/product. Customers know what they’ll pay the whole time

I doubt a business will have many customers if they’re charging significantly more than their competitors due to still charging taxes

I have no intention of voting for another pro-corporate, “my turn” Democrat. If we don’t end up with her, or another actual progressive, I think a whole lot of Democrats will be completely turned off the party

The CDC first learned of the outbreak when it was publicly confirmed, despite the fact that there’d been rumors of an outbreak for weeks. This represents a notable change for the US government, which has historically played a key role in responding to rumored outbreaks in places like DRC and, if the rumors are confirmed to be true, helping to stop the outbreak.

It feels like the US government is on the sidelines this time

Yet another aspect the US is no longer a world leader in

Based greyhat

Nathan, an American Jew from Brooklyn who preferred not to give his last name, told +972. “It’s very sad to me that after the [1967] war Arabs were allowed back — that was a big mistake, and I hope they won’t make those mistakes in Gaza and in Lebanon.”

Openly admitting to wanting ethnic cleansing. Deeply evil people

Reunification now seems permanently off the table for both sides. Sad to think about

Right? I just want nothing to do with Israel. The middle east is so fucking complicated and nothing we ever helps the situation. Let’s just do whatever keeps trade moving and avoids war

They’ll say every country to broadcasting their solo performance is antisemitic

What does feddit.org do around Israel?

Not useful for at home systems either

No, they’re perfectly fine for home systems

What narrative?

I know NY Post is a rag, but it’s so disrespectful to their readers to act as if we’re incapable of reading the words “fucking” amd “bastards”

I don’t buy that. I guess we’ll find out who is right later this month

This happens with every corrupt, right-wing leader

They win at the polls due to morons believing propaganda and culture war bullshit, their approval rating tanks over the next couple years as the country performs poorly

Then the election rolls around and the propaganda campaigns and culture war bullshit makes them vote the same way again

Considering medican tourism from the US places a lot of strain on the Mexican healthcare system, the US really has no business telling Mexico it can’t accept Cuban doctors

Can you expand on what you mean? What level of security do other ISPs provide that Starlink does not?
