It's just scientific fact that they love being slaves to corporations unlike us, the proudly independent and individualistic Westerners

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Anyone who thinks Japanese people always follow rules should take a short drive on the highway system, especially in Tokyo where doing 80 in a 50 zone is extremely common. Afterwards they can drive the surface roads and count the number of illegally parked cars illegally idling with engines on.
Yes. I spent some time living in northern Kanto, which is famous for its car dependancy, and absolutely everyone drove 20-40 KPH above the limit. Sixty KPH (which is generally the highest speed limit outside of highways) is equivalent to around 37 MPH, so I don't blame them.
having your entire society at school zone speeds
But only for those that keep to the speed limits. Plenty of people drove at 80-100 KPH when I commuted by car.
