cell classic (cell@shitposter.world)'s status on Thursday, 18-Apr-2024 09:56:21 JST cell classic you know i've come to realize that privilege truly is a thing in the world
it's truly unfair that an american just by the providence of birth gets to work at defense contractors such as raytheon, lockheed martin, northrop grumman etc whereas some poor schmuck born in china or russia or iran will never be able to realize their dream of working in such esteemed places and have to settle for their own domestic sub-par industries -

cell classic (cell@shitposter.world)'s status on Monday, 15-Apr-2024 00:03:12 JST cell classic @lain @sun Crazy Rich Asians is interesting in that the movie got alot of support from the Singaporean Tourism Board, while simultaneously portraying the life of only the top 0.x% people here and the author of the book it was based on is wanted by the SG government for draft dodging
if you want the True Blue Singaporean experience go watch Phua Chu Kang or Under One Roof :0180: -

cell classic (cell@shitposter.world)'s status on Sunday, 14-Apr-2024 23:28:57 JST cell classic @sun @lain side note i have a few indonesian friends who studied there and they complained about the (corporate) push for diversity there - it's like you want to push for people to live in harmony together without even considering the cultures themselves and how things might clash, a total disregard for subtlety
best part of course was how one of them complained at how racist the californian gay scene was that was an eye opener -

cell classic (cell@shitposter.world)'s status on Sunday, 14-Apr-2024 22:54:36 JST cell classic @sun @lain but i still don’t understand how this works on the ground at least? american political discourse seems so poisoned anyway it would be funny if it didn’t affect things halfway across the world
you guys switched from ethnic to national quotas for immigration quite recently too - and at least from reading the stats seems like most of the immigration is happening from asia now - but i don’t see alot of messaging for or against such things?? :cirno_think: -

cell classic (cell@shitposter.world)'s status on Sunday, 14-Apr-2024 22:20:16 JST cell classic @sun @lain at least for me as an asian (the fact that you can generalize the term is funny on its own) for instance the brainworms second+ generation asian americans get trying to reconcile their cultures is interesting to see
the culture shock as they go and visit asia for the first time - the fact that i personally would consider them american first… -

cell classic (cell@shitposter.world)'s status on Sunday, 14-Apr-2024 22:19:04 JST cell classic @lain @sun aah of course makes sense - i think we discussed before the difference between various countries’ ways of achieving Ordnung
Japan’s ordnung is bottom-up, while I would argue that Singapore’s ordnung is top-down -

cell classic (cell@shitposter.world)'s status on Sunday, 14-Apr-2024 22:13:31 JST cell classic @sun @lain oh that’s actually quite interesting - i don’t really understand how multiculturalism in the west works on a ground level basis so to speak so it seems foreign to me :cirnoPeek:
but wouldn’t it be different in a place like the usa where cultural identities of multiple immigrants meet as compared to say europe where well defined differences in cultures usually also are correlated to political borders between nations? -
