  • The “we are Charlie Kirk” is just the disambiguation added by the first person to enter this as an answer. In case there are multiple distinct people that share a name, it asks you to enter a little context so other people who guess can verify whether it’s the exact same one. You can see this by continuing with someone it doesn’t know until it gives up and asks you to enter your answer.

    So it’s just another player having a laugh, not any kind of statement from the authors.








  • For the record I am neither Chinese nor Asian, but I assume this is just active voice for dramatic effect.

    This isn’t some novel phenomenon special to Japan. Seasonal local festivals that attract many times the local population happen everywhere. At first there’s trash everywhere and general chaos.

    Local government and event organizers adapt and improve infrastructure. Or they throw up their hands and say the tourists are impossible to manage.

    In the modern day, they monitor social media and predict crowd sizes based on impressions and engagement. They respond with increased infrastructure that includes trash and bathrooms. That’s actuarials.

    Common sense is that tourists don’t shit in yards without extreme circumstances forced upon them.
