The reddit thread describes exactly how SJWs recruit in the US, by the way. And Fortune 500s aren't that different, but they will always hold a great deal of power.

Maybe. But things do change.

i'd even argue that the racial tensions are getting worse in japan because we can't stand the chinese tourists defacating on your floors and destroying our toilets

That signals enough strength to have taken said step in the first place.

haha. Yeah, racial tensions are getting worse in the US too.

also there are only 2 genders in japan, its not even a subject of debate

I blame the whole intersectionality thing for most of it, but there's other factors driving it too.

That was how it was in most places in the US until a couple years ago.

so since there is no such thing as "gender bias" training in japan there isn't even anywhere to start

I still remember how people on Reddit used to make fun of the whole concept and you couldn't find *anyone* pushing the "gender is a social construct" line.

in the US feminism and LGBT has been a issue from a long time ago before trump even announced his presidency

Now the "gender is a social construct" seems to be the dominant narrative.

they always existed, just not that vocal before the trump presidency

Don't forget. Obama campaigned *twice* on not supporting Gay Marriage.

yeah that's the US, nobody is even talking about gay marriange in japan for the most part

? 2015 ... https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2015/05/06/japan-gay-rights-domestic-partner-law/26696889/

Bear in mind, Obergefell vs. Hodges (the turning point in the US) was also in 2015.

Read that Reddit thread and just ask around if anyone you know has heard of similar things. That's what to watch for.

do you know that gay marrriage isnt even legal in japan

homosexuality isn't illegal but same sex marriage isn't legal either

http://www.asahi.com/ajw/articles/AJ201808020056.html

That's how it was in the US until the last decade or so.

Outside of a (very) limited selection of places.

didn't the US legalize it for like a couple decades

at least in most states

It's complicated. It was basically de-facto banned everywhere and gradually expanded via the courts.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_same-sex_marriage_in_the_United_States#Early_years

It wasn't nationally legal until 2015.

Also, Prop 8 (banning gay marriage) passed *in CA* in 2008

It was mostly fought in the courts.

The mainstream culture was very against it until very, very recently.

so its been around for a couple years not a couple decades then, ok

The left is currently hunting down anyone who supported Prop 8 (see Brendan Eich)

plus even if same sex marriage gets legal in japan not many japanese people care about it politically, becaues they don't care about politics in general

That's the US too, to be honest. only ~40-60% bother to even vote.

no in the US millemials are overwhemlingly democrat

And it gets much smaller as you get more involved.

Yes? So?

"In the most recent election for the House of Representatives (the lower house of the National Diet) in 2014, for example, 68% of citizens in their sixties went to the polls, but only 32% of those in their twenties turned out. This combination of factors has led some people to complain that Japan has a “silver democracy”—a system in which silver-haired seniors hold the upper hand and young people’s wills tend to be neglected."

https://www.nippon.com/en/currents/d00231/teen-voters-and-politics-in-japan.html

so, since japanese people, especially the younger generation, are much less political than millenials in the US its much harder to push any political agenda in japan since the younger people are too busy fapping to hentai than listening to politics

30% turnout rate for millenials at the polls that's pretty damn low

Yeah, I was going to say.
http://www.electproject.org/home/voter-turnout/demographics

and, its dwindling too "In fact, though, the newly enfranchised 18- and 19-year old voters make up a mere 2% of the total electorate. And it is fair to say that their participation had no significant effect on the results of the July 2016 election for the House of Councillors (the upper house of the Diet), the first nationwide election following the lowering of the voting age. The cynical voices of young people who said, “Even if I vote, it won’t make any difference,” turned out to have been accurate."

Things aren't as different as you might assume.
