speaking of japan's evil prime minister she had like a 60-80% approval rating last year lmao and it of course immediately started cratering the second she implemented all the policies she said she was gonna do all along. the lesson is in all countries globally have the same median voter brain

I get the vibe Shu Takumi looking at Japan and Britain with Great Ace Attorney, then coming to the conclusion "spiritually our countries are near identical and Not In A Good Way" was a very astute observation of his

Like i for sure need to do lots more reading about it but the easy explanation has to be the exploitation right? Like you cant have this shit happen in japan, colombia and england without it being an issue of how much time people have to engange politically

This has been happening in Argentina basically since the last dictatorship ended and the main issue seems to be that followed by heavy media olygopolies and other less comprehensible individual stuff

yeah in the uk it is due, among other things, to an extremely politically coherent media class that move in lockstep and decide on a dime what issues are acceptable and what the framing is and basically decide when a prime minister has outlived their usefulness
