Nintendo is such a good brand and company

Also japan makes good electronics, audio equipment, engines, etc.

I have much respect for japanese culture outside my own White culture. I hope they protect it and learn the lesson from how Whites sabotaged their own cultures

I notice thru what little japanese media i see that they seem to push a very feminine femboy prototype in their pop culture media. Their boy bands look like girls. They aren't promoting masculinity.

Also because Romanized Japanese is completely unreadable from the sheer amount of homophones. You cannot tell by reading the term "hayai" whether I mean 早い or 速い, which mean different things. "koto" can refer to "stuff" or a stringed instrument. "sentaku" can mean laundry or a choice. Romaji is completely useless except for maybe karaoke. Even Japanese learners are told to NEVER use Romaji.

There's plenty of acts that fit the description, they're called "Manzai" or "double-act comedy". The straight man is the "tsukkomi" and the goofy one is the "boke". One of these may fit your bill. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manzai#Notable_manzai_acts

How do Japs solve this problem in spoken Japanese?

Context. Pure context. It's way harder to enter midway into a conversation in Japanese if you're learning it. Native speakers have grown used to it and though it is still difficult are more accurate than learners usually. Mistakes can still happen and this is why puns and the like are very common in Japanese comedy. Spoken Japanese is really difficult either way. I've spent over two years on it and I'd still rather read a sentence I only understand half of than hear one.

When we say America, do we mean jews, Shabbos Goys or free Anglo-Saxons?

it was always meant to be.

We created a government because if we did not someone else would.

We knew that psychopaths and tyrants would be attracted to it like moths to a flame.

We isolated the government from ourselves so that it is all but impossible for them to interfere with our rights.

Unfortunately, we put no limits whatsoever on what they can do to foreigners overseas.

Sorry about that.

Honestly, we kind of don't care what our government does overseas. It's not our problem.

It is our problem when you consider the fact that the reason BRICS is gaining so much popularity is because of our governments behavior.

That tends to matter when your entire economy is propped up by the petrodollar lol.

I hope they have success. Maybe the whole world will leave us alone when they no longer want our little pieces of paper with green ink on it.

I don't care what our economy does. I don't care who our trade partners are. I don't need your inferior crap and I don't want your trinkets.

"Not our problem" is the excuse who kick the ass of every idiot who don't care what the big government does.

You Americans are silly if you believe so because:
1. That creates enemies of your state and your nation, people wanting to fucking kill you all.

2.Even if you would reduce immigration to 0.000% and not get people used to living in tyranny and hating you - you still have tyrannical "laws" everywhere else - so the tyrannical government can sell it as "everywhere except USA it works so and it works" to most stupid of you. And as you would see tyranny as "normal" thing you will get it in your so called "land of the free" soon.

> You Americans

Your opinion is irrelevant. While we invented TV while plowing our fields, and our bicycle mechanics were making powered flight airplanes, what were you doing?

You are a loser, you will always be a loser, and your opinion will never matter.

I don't care if the whole world hates us. It was never a popularity contest. I don't even WANT the world to like me, because I hate the world.

Heliocentric Theory (Copernicus),First oil mining before your jews did and kerosene lamps (Łukasiewicz). Inventing fucking Silicon Wafers for transistors
(Czochralski),Breaking enigma before those faggot Turing did it, and so on. Still "stupid and not relevant" Poles,right, you wouldn't achieve fucking anything if you were in our geopolitical and historical situation.

I still respect USA,I do. But your country will next year have 250 year independence anniversary. Good thing,but please don't compare yourself to civilizations with 1000+ years legacy.

By the way:
- Concept of television were Russian (Константин Дмитриевич Перский) you refined it but ok.
- Bicycle is German (Baron Karl von Drais)

So yes,you have Wright Brothers,Modern Computers etc,but your silly exceptionalism and belief you would remain free if you let the rest of the world be ruled by tyrants is plain stupid and suicidal.

You missed the point entirely.

Europe is a sunken ship. It has been for nearly 1,000 years. The smart ones all got out when the getting out was good. They came to America where they faced virtually no barriers and were free to invent.

You Europeans who stayed behind don't matter, and you haven't mattered for a very, very long time now. You didn't matter back before America was discovered either, but you were either too rich or too stupid to realize it.

I'm convinced that Asian language characters act as a mandatory IQ test in East Asian countries that automatically weeds out retards from the elite and middle classes of society, and since the advent of mass literacy it even filters retards from the lower classes. No one can succeed in society and be a moron.

It teaches kids to memorize, practice and follow simple rules.

Even retarded kids can do it. They just take a little longer to learn the characters. Smart kids end up shooting themselves in the foot because they won't spend the time to memorize them.

Kanji still ended up being simplified anyways. And the writing was still changed, Despite there being no reason to do so .

The changes are minor. Anyone familiar with Kanji can recognize the old style easily. Source: i learned both Japanese and Korean. Korean uses the old characters. It was a trivial matter to "relearn" the old characters.

Honestly I prefer the simplified version when handwriting. The details necessary for the old characters means i need to use more soace. Typing- it doesn't matter.

The truth is both Korean and Japanese use a cursive shorthand that is unintelligible unless you know the language in and out. They skip a lot of unnecessary details in it.

Good for them for sticking to their culture and history.

Our writing system is better though. Ain't gonna convince me otherwise.

the main problem is that they wanted to make it so Japs couldn't read their old texts. The old texts that would have plenty of antisemitic content.

Our writing system is completely incompatible with our language. English has 20-something distinct vowel sounds and 20-something distinct consonant sounds. We have an extraordinary range of phonemes compared to most other language. That, and we have an accent system.

That means we need an "alphabet" of at least 40 something characters to represent each sound. To compensate, we use digraphs, combinations of 2 or sometimes more characters to represent a single sound. It's incredibly difficult to tell whether the two characters next to each other are meant to be combined or separated.

The only reason we ended up using the latin alphabet was convenience and tradition. It takes enormous effort to learn how to pronounce the latin letters in our language, so much so that it is all but impossible for a foreigner to do it properly.

You'll understand what I am talking about if you learn to read Greek and Latin. It's a completely different story when you use the alphabet that actually matches the language.

I'm not saying forcing the Latin alphabet onto Germanic languages was ideal. What I'm saying is that European (and some others) writing systems are better than Asian writing systems, by which I mean the idea of using a couple dozen letters, with relatively simple designs, which represent sounds, and stringing them together phoenetically to make words, is better than Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Thai, Arabic, etc. Japanese isn't terrible but the characters are too complex and a lot of of them are not phoenetic. Chinese is bullshit. Korean is better but the way the characters are built is not as easy as building words in European writing. Thai and Arabic have the same problem as Korean but instead of neatly building characters, they build words by smashing symbols together. European writing systems are superior.

Superior in what way?

Because literacy rates in the "inferior" northeast asian languages was always WAY higher than the "superior" English writing system.

They've been dealing with the complexity of Chinese characters for the better part of 2,000 years, and they've done a pretty good job. The Koreans invented their own writing system but even that is not enough. There is a reason why most world languages were not alphabets.
