How is Japan anti-censorship? What a time to be alive
This is a country that has porn mags being sold in convenience stores and plenty of stores where you can find content for all sorts of fetishes both online and offline. They also have 2 huge indie artist markets every year where at least 50% of the content being sold is porn. Each event gets about 300k people. Only thing I can think of regarding censorship here are the mosaics and those are only really there due to a very old law that no lawmakers are gonna bother with expending political capital to reverse.
Seriously. I was so surpeiced when I learned that porn in Japan is serialized and you only need to know the serial number of a porn to find the exact one piece you are looking for.
Porn is serious business man
What’s the indie artist market called?
Comiket
japan exists in a superstate of being pro censorship and anti censorship
I don’t think they are. Protectionist and interested in their exports, seem more likely.
While this is probably true. I don’t think it’s a stretch to say countries like Japan and South Korea are probably better at democracy than the “west” atp
Let’s maybe not include a straight up oligarchy corpo state like south korea in that statement. Better than the usa? Maybe, but they’d even give that a run for the money, and just barely win out.
Japan isn’t much better for oligarchy.
