fladdict I wonder why in Japan there is such a strong aversion to illegal hobbies like parkour and graffiti, but in the rest of the world they are accepted even though they are criticized. I wonder if there is a difference in the sense of value for the law.

readingā€¦ A Russian couple whose hobby is ā€œillegal climbingā€? Russian couple continues to climb skyscrapers around the world

fladdict Itā€™s kind of hard to verbalize, In Japan, it is said, ā€œIf you break the law, you are out as a human being. If you break the law, you are out as a human being. Overseas, itā€™s ā€œbreak the law ā†’ you wonā€™t get state protection from here on out, and I donā€™t know what will happen to you. I sometimes feel a nuance like that, or something like indifferent self-responsibility toward other peopleā€™s rule violations.

interchange format B in obedience and protection for ā€œbreaking the rules will not get you asylum.ā€
