Moral Ed: Considering others, cont'd, and Christo- fascist America

Puppy was angry and trod on pumpkin's runner. Makes no difference to me, said pumpkin. Just then a truck came along, and, before pumpkin knew it, the tendril was snapped. Ahh, ohh, that hurts, and tears coursed down. Students are asked to consider: Why is it important to think of others, to be unselfish? I'm from America, you know, the banana republic whose leader is a convicted felon, sex offender, and sociopath. White Christian Nationalists have no problem with that. In polytheistic, animist Japan, young children are taught the importance of community, of society, and they understand that taxes pay for schools, libraries, parks, fire and police departments, hospitals... And no one in Japan would dream of taking a blowtorch to healthcare, of denying people of a basic human right. No commandments, but closer to Christ than Jehovah Junkie Mike Johnson. So, America, サヨナラ.
