Asian Public PR

Spandrell

The last video by the Chinese state news agency Xinhua wasn't widely appreciated by my Western audience. The common reaction is that Asians just are awfully bad at propaganda.

Yes, they are pretty bad. And that's an Asian thing; it's not a communist thing. Look at this video by the Japanese Foreign Ministry. This also ties with my other recent post on Japanese decline.

That's fascinating. Like watching a train-wreck in slow motion.

If you didn't know, this is a retrofitting of a previous media phenomenon, "PPAP", a short nonsense "song" by a Japanese comedian that was briefly hyped as Japan's answer to "Gangnam Style", though I think it was truly popular only inside Japan. So here they have him singing about UN development goals. It was debuted at a UN event in Japan, in which the comedian performed on stage with a multiethnic group of children. So it might be inane and perplexing to someone who encounters it unprepared, but really this is just a Japanese version of the well-known phenomenon in which a celebrity takes a moment to promote public awareness of a United Nations program.

Bad propaganda is a feature, not a bug.

No, I'm aware. It's still a train-wreck. I appreciate the attempt at context, though.

Propaganda is hard to make for asians because the number of things asians care about is inherently very narrow. White people are generally more eager to start dancing and cheering to nursery rhymes, and that doesnt strike me as a good thing.

At the Brooklyn Museum there's a very beautiful, gracefully dynamic, interestingly weird blue-glazed 18th Century Japanese "lion-dog" in a stretched out, undulating stance -- superior to any of the Chinese source-material I've seen. Seeing it made me think that working with and improving on themes from the outside world might be essential to Japanese creativity. Maybe if everything coming from the outside world is pretty much crap then Japanese artists just don't have anything to work with and improve on and so won't produce impressive things.

If it were just that they'd be doing homomania or negro worship better than we can. Better not to give them ideas though.

Asians just dgaf as a whole, they just want to blow a load in a skinny girl, they will also accept porn and substitutes but pretense carries little persobal weight. Which makes it a less profitable enterprise on net for people with a liberal neurology to engage in it. Some of it could have to do with analyical vs holistic neurology, but all the research on that got shoah'd pretty quickly.

There was an Asian guy down in the adjunct-lounge about an hour ago -- if he's still there when I go back to use the microwave I'll ask him whether he "just wants to blow a load in a skinny girl." ("I wanna blow a load in her" isn't the first thing I think when I find a woman attractive -- is that abnormal?)

Yeah, what would you like to do with her instead?

This video was so goddamn awful, my first reaction was that it must have been produced intentionally by the Cathedral rulers of Japan as a way to humiliate the benighted Japanese, just like Modern Art in America. Which leads me to think - how is it that literally zero Japanese exist who oppose the postwar Cathedral tyranny imposed on them, as far as I can see? There seems to be zero Japanese "right wingers" who even question feminism, labour laws, land reform, etc. It seems like the Japanese simply passively accept any system once established, even if it results in them being forced to work banker hours in a 40k job and being annihilated both economically and genetically in the long run. The fact that they are still a functional country is a miracle.

There's plenty of those. Way more than there are alt-right dissidents in the West. Not a majority, of course, but a lot. You find people on non-political internet forums openly saying the only cure for low fertility is stopping women from attending school.

Run my hand along the curve of her side, trace the line of her cheekbone and jaw, hold her hand. Seriously, this is abnormal? I thought it might be. How come characters in Dickens and Dostoevsky never think "I wanna blow a load in her," though? I mean, you just never find that in psychologically penetrating fiction. You'd think that if it were the normal thing you'd find it in first-rate literature, at least just under the surface. But you don't.

Foreplay can be fun, sure, but after a while you start to want to blow a load inside of her, right? That is Gnon's command. If you don't feel like that, evolution did something wrong with you. At any rate if stereotypes have anything to them, an emphasis in foreplay I believe is indeed abnormal among men, but I'm no expert in other men.

Didn't you say previously that Japan has no red pill or manosphere? Unless something major has changed since 2016. I mean serious arguments, not memes or jokes. https://bloodyshovel.wordpress.com/2016/05/06/the-evolution-of-the-sexual-marketplace/ By the way, what happened to your review of that book claiming neoconfucianism lead to acceptance of leftism? Saying the three bonds paved the way for leftism seems like a huge troll, but that would have been an interesting argument.

Dude, read Madame Bovary (1856), where Charles passes the time, when he rides round on his horse, thinking how great the sex was last night with his hot new wife - not like his first one who was all scrawny and had cold feet. Or the part where Emma has the first orgasm of her life with *her* hot new lover. It's all indirect (and in 1856 even indirect was enough to get Flaubert hauled up in court, but it's there). Incidentally, it's a fantastic book, completely stuffed with 'game'.

MADAME BOVARY bored and disgusted me (as did SENTIMENTAL EDUCATION), but I know that lots of smart people like it. Flaubert seemed to be bored and disgusted by everything. But I probably just didn't get it. I was in my 20s when I read those. That was a long, long time ago.
