You’d probably have more luck if u actually read the article

“Last week, US military officials and Japanese police conducted a joint patrol of a popular entertainment district near a US airbase in Okinawa. It was the first time the two countries had conducted patrols together since 1974, two years after the islands that make up Okinawa prefecture reverted to Japanese control.”

It has nothing to do with the investigation.

I actually don’t even know what you’re talking about with your other points because nowhere does it say the US is blocking the investigation in any way, and the previous investigations into previous behavior lead to indictment

If someone grabbed my ass at a party, I would count that as sexual assault. Idk what ur going for here, just cuz you don’t mind doesn’t mean it shouldn’t count

I mean, those are portrayals of humans with backgrounds that have some relevance to their character. A mermaid is just a fish lady who cares what they look like the important part is they are part fish

I hate to be the person to burst your bubble but racism isn’t going anywhere no matter how much people wish it would. Tribalism is heavily ingrained in humanity, people will always separate themselves into us and them. Pretending those differences don’t exist won’t solve the issue

Poverty is a real issue in America that is also often influenced by race. Race is a real issue in itself that has many different facets.

Entirely depends on who the majority is. Racism is just tribalism.

Ok, I’ll bite. Just because you grew up not having to consider the color of your skin doesn’t mean other people had that same privilege. I wish I could say that ethnicity doesn’t matter, but people here will absolutely treat you differently because of race, whether it makes sense or not. The fact is that “not seeing race” is something you only have the privilege of when you are not in the minority race. Interestingly enough, while I am a very clearly black man, my mixed half sister (32) has faced more direct racism than me, starting from as early as second grade. Her also mixed daughter (15) also gets called the n word at school regularly. You’re right that it shouldn’t matter but it does to enough people that it can’t just be ignored.

Last time he was in office housing assistance programs were gutted so that will most likely change

So to clarify, having no plan to stop shootings is better than having a plan to stop shootings? I’d personally argue that any plan is better than no plan

Not arguing for or against just saying that’s really not a policy just a lack of policy

What gun control? His platform is just to let everyone keep their guns, school shootings be damned

Sir this is a meme community

Is that a boss baby tshirt?

Breathe

the reasoning varies from person to person but one thing it does do is make your body release dopamine which makes you feel good for a bit

Bold of you to assume after 20 years anyone cares if I wake up
