Meanwhile in China, the viral White House prayer scene has turned into a full-blown social media trend. Bosses at small businesses and factories are rounding up their employees to make fun of the stunt—forming a circle, placing hands on shoulders or heads, and praying in a humorous way for “better sales, higher incomes for every worker and the whole company.”
Videos of these “prayer circles” are blowing up on Douyin and Weibo. Not sure how much divine favor the White House actually summoned, but these Chinese bosses? They straight-up turned the Oval Office prayer stunt into free global marketing gold🤣
こういう正気のユーモアがあれば、カルトみたいな堕落したユーモアは生まれない。 ユーモアは社会の硬直をほぐす潤滑油のようなものだ。 昔の日本にも「もどき」と呼ばれるユーモアがあり、その代表例が狂言『附子(ぶす)』である。物語では、欲深い主人が水飴を独り占めし、召使には「毒だから食べるな」と言い張る。しかし中身は何の害もない水飴で、召使たちは誘惑に負けてついに手を出す。その過程で、桶を倒し、道具を落とし、掛け軸を引き裂くなど、次々に家中をめちゃくちゃにしてしまう。観客はその滑稽な光景に笑い転げるが、笑いの対象は召使ではない。彼らこそ主人の利己心や欲深さを映す鏡像であり、愚かで浅ましい振る舞いを観客に体感させる。欲得を正面から否定するのではなく、そのありさまを映し出すことで、社会や人間の硬直に柔軟な目線をもたらす。こうした笑いが、秩序に潤滑性を与えるのが「もどき」としてのユーモアの力なのである。
sorry what’s the original?

Jesus god, that FIFA
trophystatue is the icing on the cake of that photo.I thought that was a watermark until you said that and I actually zoomed in on the photo.
So gaudy.
Hah I thought this was from his first term till being told that’s what that monstrosity is. To be fair I didn’t look closely (mean with him in the middle why would you want to?) I now see it says Fifa on it and realize I should sometimes pay more attention.
Seriously though this is the person who controls the most nukes in the world? Mean one thing to vote in someone to nose dive your own country but when they can take out the world…sheesh, have a bit of responsibility.
That’s the machine they use to make “Contact” with God.
I thought that was like a watermark on the photo. Everything about this hilarious
As a kid I used to think it was dumb when in myth or story, the ruler would visit some kind of oracle/witchdoctor/etc for advice or good luck. And yet here we are.
holy cow hahahaha
The country for dismantling theocracy and installing democracy everyone
Look, their biggest allies in the region are… oh no
So humble, so brave… my eyes well with manly, patriotic unshed tears
Oh my god are they just shuffling these creeps in whenever he falls asleep at the desk?
Don’t ask questions you don’t want the answers to.
no I’m glad I asked this one is fuckin wild
I’m amazed it took them this long to make fun of this. It’s been happening since long before I was born.
This is pretty funny. Let’s do one back about Uyghurs and forcing ethnicity minorities to learn Mandarin. They can do one about bombing kids. It’s like ping pong except both sides look identical.
It’s doubles, they’re on the same team, and the opponent is the wall
Bombing kids and having them learn a language are identical? Really?
Haha no, but the genocide is the same unless you’re gonna simp for China and pretend it’s not real. Fuck both of them.
Pretty sure China didn’t just glass an entire city, and isn’t currently trying to glass an entire country.
Nobody said they did but the uyghur genocide is still it’s own problem
Xinjiang uyghurs are part of China, of course they’re required to learn mandarin, however that does not mean they’re forbidden from speaking their own tongue.
I’m sure they whisper in it during reeducation.

this is basically you
And this is you: 🙈🙉🙊
Thank you for the explanation because while Google translate does the job it’s intended to, it doesn’t help with context. I was confused at first because I thought religion was frowned upon (to put it politely) in China. (I frown upon it, too, but I’m not a proponent of how it often gets handled over there, either.)
Yeah, the latter half of my life as an American has been frustrating AF because I’m finally at the point where I get what’s actually going on, and it’s just been an ever-deepening pile of shit that frustrates & embarrasses TF out of me.
Religion is frowned upon? I guess too bad for the dozens temples at every corner (+ the churches, mosques, and synagogues)
Religion is definitely not “frowned upon” in China. What is frowned upon is public proselytizing and what gets really frowned upon is the constant attempts by the west to set up “churches” (cults) whose job is to be recruitment centers for color revolution and, when they inevitably fail, an object of constant propaganda how “China prosecutes religious institutions”.
Not sure this is actually newsworthy, but I burst out laughing at the one I saw where a family was blessing Ultraman Tiga. With that said, I’m off to get my poopie butt cleaned
