That is the opposite of being petty.
To be fair, she can get away with it, unlike, say, Queen Elizabeth II.
She gets away not talking to trump, mostly because she's dead.
Why would she do that, she's married to a fascist
Sometimes I wish I could not know English for 2 hours.
I'm on public transport and I just giggled. Love it.
To be fair, the Orange Shitgibbon barely speaks english itself.
日本語を食べません
I also don't eat Japanese
何？わかりません
Sucks to explain jokes, but this is internet recommended practice to avoid any kind of everyday trouble with Japanese officials etc. Use at your own risk
That's not petty, that's just being smart
Pettiness and pragmatism are two wildly different things. I'd also count her as pragmatic.
Back in his first term
"Was." That's Abe and he was assassinated a few years ago.
She is still alive, though, and may have been avoiding taking to Trump by not knowing English all along!
with a doohickey gun some dude made in his basement, no less.
Wasn't the assassination due to some connection to a church if I recall correctly
Most successful political assassination in recent memory. The shooter got everything he wanted and then some.
Inspiring, really.
Yeah, Moonies. I can't remember why him. The kid that did it, his mom was grifted 100k or something. That's all I remember though.
It was because Abe, like other LDP politicians, had an history of propping up the Church of Unification cult. The shooter picked him specifically because of a video of Abe speaking in one of their churches. Abe's family in particular has connections to the cult since the very foundation, and their ties to the LDP are something out of a "Like A Dragon"/"Yakuza" plot.
Yep.
People not from or really familiar with Japan and also South Korea... when you tell them that actually, weird ass insano religious cults actually fund and drive a very substantial amount of politics and prominent political personalities...
People often think you are being some kind of racist when you say that.
Nope. This is just actually true, to an extent that is often absurd/incomprehensible to many in the Anglosphere.
Which... is kinda weird, because, look at the US.
The Republican party, as in elected officials, is ... majority composed of outright christian nationalist theocrats? Supermajority?
That are functionally a death cult that is actively trying to bring about their version of the apocalypse, at a geopolitical scale, so that Jesus can rapture them all away.
... What are the Mormons? Oh, right, an extremist domestic terrorist religious cult, founded by a locally infamous conman, that just barely managed to not get snuffed out in its infancy of many clashes with Federal Forces and state militias, that's just managed to get a hell of a lot better at PR... while also continuing to evangelize and amass money and political power, and gaslight the fuck out if its adherents as to its actual history.
It really shouldn't be shocking at all that massive, culty religious organizations with opaque external financial reporting standards and essentially always also massive tax breaks/exceptions... do in fact worm their way into having massive power over the political apparatus.
He was a big supporter I think.

I wouldn't utter a single word to that turd.
Is it possible to learn this power?
Anybody whose able to speak another language than english can do it.
But that does exclude a lot of americans.
you don't even actually have to speak another language. just make shit up. babble like a fundie "speaking in tongues" and repeat "no speakey eni englche"... helps if you can go a little castor-eyed and pull out the crazed weirdo look.
But please don't try that with bilinguals. We may not understand you but we have plenty of experience knowing what a foreign language sounds like.
I've had two people pull that shit on me and all they did was lose my respect for thinking I'm that stupid.
While I get what you're saying, I'm not sure whether people who are pretending to speak another language in order to avoid talking to you really care after they have your respect.

so like, the people it works on, aren't going to be bilingual people, generally. especially if you happen to be a white dude. But it is fun to fuck with a certain crowd.

As an English speaking American, I would attempt the same thing.
"This person doesn't speak ~~English~~ American, must be an illegal immigrant" -ICE
“Oh. I don’t speak or understand any of the English language at all, so I cannot talk to you or your staff.”
¿Que?
