Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Yeah that is why I kind of despise outrages. It comes not at the sign of trouble, but at the sight of drama. In this case it waited up until it was no longer even that much of a thing while it poisoned politics for over 2 decades.

The guy did nothing of positive note, it was plain bloody revenge and people cheered for it, at least that is what you are saying.

It helped expose a lot of government connections to the moonies, so something positive came out of it. Abe kinda sucked anyway. The conservatives have held power in Japan for literally like 60 years (minus a couple years right before the 2011 tsunami).
