@Glowberg_Fedstein @cyberanathema @Distolero Yeah in Japanese you can completely omit using the subject (other people) and it still makes perfect sense. That's why their only pronouns are 1st person. The language can be very minimalist.
@RacistReimu @verita84 @Distolero They wanted to get rid of the Japanese language entirely, but the Americans stopped that. Had to settle for destroying their culture instead

@typicker @Distolero @RacistReimu @verita84 Yeah they're definitely using it as a political narrative. I'm just showing what it was like pre-WWII and post. You can see a very deliberate shift.
@typicker @Distolero @RacistReimu @verita84 Japan was in a huge economic boom during the 80's and it's barely a dent. The far bigger impact is women having working careers.
@typicker @Distolero @RacistReimu @verita84 It's not about the work itself, it's about the mentality. Women are expected to make money and support themselves first and foremost, instead of how it was historically in that they would get a husband to do that first and then do light work after they have already raised children.
It's about the priority of job > children that causes massive fertility loss. Same with birth control to view sex as a pleasure activity, so people start dating just to have sex instead of stay together.

@typicker @PrettyHateMachine @Distolero @RacistReimu @verita84 Yeah it's a problem that naturally fixes itself if you would let it. Supply and demand. But unfortunately the powers that be have a narrative to push and will never allow things to progress naturally.
It's like deflation. Your currency and savings becoming more valuable over time. It's considered a heresy and something that should be avoided at all costs, so they stay at a "healthy" 2% inflation rate.
