MODERATORS
I know they have a pretty brutal work culture, which suggests a dismal political landscape, but that's about it. That seems like a pretty typical knowledge level for westerners, so you're probably right.
Western media acknowledges the worst excesses of neoliberalism as a gesture towards reformism, it will never expose the underlying structure that makes brutal unrestrained looting the driving force of today's world
And sometimes they make controversial super bowl half time shows to give the optics of resistance the placate the masses calling for it.
They also have a batshit judicial culture and women apparently never get justice and most courts are a kind of semi-scripted kangaroo court.
Ace Attorney was specifically made as a parody of Japan's courts IIRC.
