Shinzo Abe must be spinning in his grave knowing people are out here trying to understand anglo memes instead of having sex

the funniest thing about these memes is i'm like 90% sure abe wasn't even that big on the birth rate thing, or at least not in the way that he was portrayed in all these memes

like, he was a conservative politician so i'm sure it bugged him but i don't think he was connected to any of the big things that the memes ascribed to him

Modern politicians are cowards, he should've had FDR style fireside chats encouraging people to fuck.
