In Japan the keiretsu comes before the individual. The 'individual' is in fact 'owned' as part of the keiretsu. There is no doubt strong economic forces at play in this. Japan has preserved a very feudal society in some respects. Nukes in Japan are like a sputtering candle on a dried-out xmas tree.

Reminds me of several scenes in Conan The Barbarian: the opening tile shot of a card with the words "That which does not kill us makes us stronger", and the scene where James Earl Jones waves the virgins to leap to their death.

Humans pretending.....

.....to be lemmings.

Theater of the absurd for the dammed.

That is all.

Great idea Japan!
