Nikkei average stock price hit 39,098 yen per share, a high that hasn't been seen in 34 years

Hokkaido resident interviews below regarding the phenomena

When the stock prices go up abnormally, there are repercussions so I'm cautious

Hourly wage nor salaries will rise up and we cannot go on living like this. Only (stock) prices that are unrelated to daily living are rising.

No one feels that the economy's doing well. The rich gets richer while the poor stays poor.

Patriarchy civilised women into being something worthy of love, and without it monogamy is an idealist dream

It's an 18th century forum at this point.

-Saito Kohei is a renowned Marxist scholar from the University of Tokyo

-As a result of ignoring climate change and economic disparity, people are not reproducing anymore

-Japanese social contract has been broken down and lifetime employment has been reduced to irregular employment

-Workers are being seen as nothing more than costs by companies

-Overconcentration of population in Tokyo is happening not due to the wish of the poeple, but due to the concentration of capital there

-Population decline is happening not only in rural areas but in regional cities as well due to this phenomena

-Japan and South Korea are in a grave situation due to advanced capitalism (in their respective countries)

The car starts at just over US$11,000, lower than bestselling petrol-powered cars like Volkswagen’s Lavida and Toyota’s Corolla

The world’s largest EV maker, BYD has been ramping up efforts to make its mass-market electric cars more affordable for Chinese consumers

BYD, the world’s largest electric-vehicle (EV) maker, has launched a new version of its plug-in hybrid model the Qin Plus DM-i, pricing it lower than bestselling petrol-powered cars like Volkswagen’s Lavida and Toyota’s Corolla.

The company, backed by Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway, said on Monday that the new variant, known as the Glory Edition, aims to accelerate customers’ conversion from fossil fuel-powered vehicles to EVs amid a slowing economy.

The new version starts at 79,800 yuan (US$11,086), lower than the previous edition by 20,000 yuan or 20 per cent. Its battery-only driving range is 55 kilometres.

“The price will make petrol car assemblers tremble,” BYD said in a statement on the microblogging site Weibo. “The Glory Edition will become a benchmark for the Class-A [compact] car segment.”

The new edition is 15 per cent cheaper than the entry-level Lavida and nearly 40 per cent less than the basic Corolla.

K-pop stars criticized for drinking coffee from 'pro-Israel' Starbucks

Korean artists have received criticism for using products from Starbucks as fans call for boycotts of the franchise regarding the company's alleged stance on the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

Enhypen’s Jake was criticized for drinking the company's product during a Jan. 5 live show on Weverse. Fans complained in the livestream's chat, telling him “not to buy and consume drinks from Starbucks.”

“I made a mistake, I’m very sorry, won’t happen again,” the singer said on Weverse in reply to one such comment.

Singer Jeon Somi was also criticized for using a tumbler with a Starbucks logo in a makeup video uploaded to TikTok last month. The clip has since been taken down following the backlash.

An Instagram post depicting Blackpink member Jisoo holding a Starbucks tumbler, which was uploaded last July, has also received a number of critical comments, with users demanding that she boycott Starbucks.

Starbucks received backlash last October when it sued its workers' union, Starbucks Workers United, after a member of the union tweeted a pro-Palestinian message. Online critics interpreted Starbucks' action as indicating support for Israel, though the company has denied that claim.

Starbucks Korea is owned by Shinsegae Group and operated separately from the U.S.-based Starbucks.

But it pays royalties to the US Starbucks as the article fails to mention.

BDS is alive and thriving in... k-pop?

How can he not understand being a part of an invading force makes him guilty by association? A (former) soldier still thinks he was saving lives instead of destroying them, as if Iraq didn't have clinics or vaccines before his organization bombed them.

On a more positive note, even people like this support Palestine.

A lone wolf incident then. No radicalization or extremist ideology this time around.

Vietnam showed that the public is a great threat to the war effort. Governments will not allow media to show what warfare is really like nor how the war is actually developing.

Begrudging acceptance of the more palatable Billionaire is close to the microcosm of the political reality in the US (and the West).

I don't like Bill Gates, but at least he is no Zuckerberg. I don't like Zuckerberg, but at least he is no Elon Musk.

I don't like Biden, but at least he is no Trump. I don't like Trump, but at least he is no De Santis.

Ad infinitum while the bar gets lower and lower.

Liberals disputing vote counts when it doesn't go their way? I swear I've seen this before, but usually in the global south.
