Crime Thai Prosecutor and Daughter Arrested in Japan for Assaulting Airport Staff
What? Japan is certainly not socialist. Nor is everybody equal in Japan. The means of production are in the control of the private sector, not government. it is a system of collective capitalism. You have misinterpreted the societal and cultural norm of harmony and conciliation. You also misinterpret the concept of politeness and respect to mean equality. Social cohesion does not mean that everyone is at the same level. Children are taught at a young age to respect authority figures including the elderly, which results in a greater respect for order. There is also a distinct social caste system, where social position and family history is a differentiating factor. Non Japanese, particularly black people are at the bottom of the hierarchy. Ex-cons, undertakers, morticians, and slaughterhouse workers, and others who work with dead animals or decaying flesh are considered low class dirty people and are to be avoided. The university one attends makes a big difference. Tokyo Institute of Technology and University of Tokyo graduates get priority for hiring at businesses and with the government. People with tattoos are still banned from some of the onsens and sentos. Even water parks and work district hotels will not allow entry to people with visible tattoos. The social differentiations are nuanced and can be subtle, and are easily missed by foreigners who do not appreciate how important decorum and manners are to the Japanese. -

Non O Extension Renewal | Timing and Travel Question
Thank you. So to do it 45 days early I would have to go soon but have to resign myself to a lot of waiting as online queue is not available until 12th June at the earliest. But that's ok if that's what I need to do. A day out at CW is always a joy. I have a multi reentry permit now, so if I get an under consideration that takes me beyond 2nd July (my current expiry) would I need to get a fresh one? And is the under consideration period always 30 days? Or does it vary? My main concern is if the date to come back after under consideration falls when I am away. -

Crime Thai Man Arrested for Raping Elderly Mother in Lampang
Perhaps, his intention was rape. It seemed planned to do what he did. Maybe he was unable to become functional to actually commit the act though. Either way, I have read many times from AN members that even if no penetration happens it is still construed as rape. So this should not be a questionable thought here. -

How to tell if you're dealing with a MAGA folk?
If you included more spaces and paragraphs more people just might read your post. I would. Same school as @Tug?
