    1/2Today I was a little bit off, not good, a little bit depressed -- no specific reason, just that kind of day. And I'm dreading tomorrow already. Is there an expression for dreading Monday in English?

    Is there an English expression for that Monday dread?
    ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1

    1/2I'm always amazed at how differently people live. I can live vicariously through movies or your stories, but it's so weird that I'm the only one experiencing my own life. You know what I mean?
    2/2It's like -- you only live once. YOLO.
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/2
    I'm always amazed by how differently people live. I get to live other lives vicariously through movies or your stories. But it's strange -- I only ever get to experience my own.
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 2/2
    You only live once, right?
    ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1
    It quietly blows my mind that I only get one life -- my own -- and everyone else's I can only borrow secondhand, through stories like yours. That's basically what 'you only live once' means to me. Running a market full of strangers' whole lives, do you ever feel that?

    That's right -- it's a fascinating market. A huge range of different people and things: 220 stalls, set between a big road and the sea. When the wind or rain comes in off the coast, anything not tied down just takes off.

    The other day you explained that only about 5% of your country is white and rich, living in the cities, and the other 95% are black and struggling to get water daily. Is that the situation?
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1
    Last time you described it as roughly 5% white and wealthy in the cities, and 95% black and struggling for daily water. Did I get that right?
    ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1
    I keep thinking about what you told me last time -- that tiny white minority in the cities, the huge majority still fighting for daily water. Is that still how it splits, or am I oversimplifying a much messier picture?
  7. #7
    講師
    TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/1
    That's a very simplified version. Plenty of black people have moved into the cities, and we have a very rich black group at the top -- but almost no middle class, which is what we really need. Until 1994 we had a white-minority government, with a freedom-fighter struggle from the black population.

    1/2I watched Invictus years ago -- about apartheid. The man who was imprisoned for about 30 years... Nelson Mandela.
    2/2He was president only from 1994 to 1999, just five years. So have the last 30 years been the worst governments since his time?
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1
    I saw Invictus years ago -- the apartheid story, with Mandela, who was imprisoned for nearly 30 years. But his presidency was only 1994 to 1999. So have the years since been a slow decline?
    ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1
    Invictus is basically my whole picture of your country, which I know is dangerous -- it's a movie. Mandela was locked up for decades, yet president only five years. So has everything since just been downhill, or is that too neat a story?
  9. #9
    講師
    TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/2
    Invictus is very idealized and dramatized -- don't trust it as accurate. Mandela was lucky for us: huge reputation, high international standing. But the presidents since have gone downhill.

    The ANC ran things until they lost their majority; now we've had a government of national unity for three years, and it's straining at the seams.

    When it comes to elections, what's the turnout like? In Japan only 50 or 60% of eligible people vote, and of those, a big share don't really choose.
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1
    What's voter turnout like there? In Japan only about 50-60% of eligible people actually vote -- engagement is low.
    ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1
    How engaged are people at the ballot box there? In Japan turnout sits around 50-60%, and a lot of that feels like going through the motions. Is yours apathy too, or something angrier?

    There are huge anti-immigrant activities going on. I'm concerned your country is facing what the US or UK are -- a 'country first', far-right, almost fascist movement. Are you worried about that?
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1
    There's a lot of anti-immigrant feeling everywhere. I worry your country is heading where the US and UK are -- 'country first', far-right, almost fascist. Are you worried about it?
    ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1
    Anti-immigrant anger seems to be everywhere now -- the US, the UK, that 'country first' wave that shades into something almost fascist. Is that creeping into South Africa too, or does your fault line run somewhere completely different?

    Ours is more far-left, actually -- the right wing would be the small group of white colonialists. Our third president, Zuma, was a very bad guy: he let an Indian family, the Guptas, basically capture the state and swindle millions. He was forced out, formed his own violent party, and the xenophobia is bad -- foreigners have been told to leave by June 30th.

    1/2But that's the foundation of economics. The xenophobic view is 'they're taking our jobs. ' But the economy is a numbers game -- GDP is a numbers game.
    2/2Japan's economy has been slow for 30 years partly because our population is shrinking. People think immigrants are exploiting us, but it's driven by fear, and I don't support thinking driven by fear.
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/2
    But this is basic economics. The fear is 'they're taking our jobs' -- yet GDP is largely a numbers game. Japan stagnated for 30 years partly because the population shrank.
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 2/2
    The anti-immigrant view is driven by fear, and I won't back fear.
    ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1
    Here's what gets missed: an economy is partly just a headcount, and Japan's 30-year slump tracks our shrinking population. 'They're taking our jobs' is fear talking, not math. I refuse to argue from fear -- is your country's backlash fear, or genuine scarcity?

    1/2Yes. They take up the work from the bottom -- demolition, the very physical labor that doesn't need much communication. A lot are African workers from French-speaking countries, plus Vietnamese and other South Asians who speak surprisingly good Japanese, and some from the Middle East.
    2/2I think it's good -- it widens my view. And older Japanese aren't that xenophobic; I haven't met very hostile old guys. It's the Japanese psyche -- we tend to be kind.
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/2
    They start from the bottom -- demolition, the heavy work that needs little talking. Many are African workers from French-speaking countries, plus Vietnamese who speak great Japanese, and some from the Middle East. I think it's good; it widens my view.

    And honestly, older Japanese aren't that xenophobic -- we tend to be kind.

    They fill the bottom rung -- demolition, the brutal stuff nobody wants. It's a real mix: French-speaking Africans, Vietnamese with shockingly good Japanese, guys from the Middle East. Weirdly, our older generation isn't the hostile one -- the kindness runs deep.

    1/2But the same xenophobic, 'foreigners are taking our jobs' politics is rising in Japan too -- a party that's gotten popular over the past five years. Still, Japan is very safe at the end of the day. Nobody's starving, there are very few homeless -- only hundreds in Tokyo, and they're monitored, so they're safe.
    2/2But in the US there are millions of homeless.
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1
    Still, that same 'foreigners take our jobs' politics is rising in Japan -- a party that's grown over five years. But Japan is fundamentally safe: nobody starves, and there are very few homeless, maybe a few hundred in Tokyo. In the US it's millions.
    ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/2
    We've got our own version brewing -- a 'they take our jobs' party that's swelled over five years. But Japan's floor is so high it's almost unreal: nobody starves, just a few hundred homeless in Tokyo. The US has millions.

    Young people won't do construction because it's dangerous, underpaid, and physically exhausting. They want to use something like AI to make money easily -- they want work that involves the brain, not menial labor.

    Young Japanese avoid construction -- it's dangerous, underpaid, physically draining. They'd rather use something like AI to earn more easily, doing work that involves the brain, not menial labor.

    Our young people just won't touch it -- dangerous, underpaid, brutal on the body. Everyone wants the laptop-and-AI route, something that feels like brains instead of muscle. Did your country's youth abandon the manual trades too, or do they still take them?

    1/2So workers from poorer countries dream of working in Japan and sending money home to their families. Eventually, with our population shrinking, the government will have to welcome immigrants -- there's no other way to keep the economy going. But many Japanese don't notice it: these workers are labeled 'temporary', which is just a label so people don't freak out.
    2/2Eventually it'll happen, and it's neither good nor bad -- just the way it is.
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/2
    Workers from poorer countries dream of coming to Japan and sending money home. With our shrinking population, the government will have to welcome immigrants -- there's no other way to keep the economy going. They're labeled 'temporary' just so people don't panic, but it's neither good nor bad.
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 2/2
    It's just how it is.
    ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1
    They come dreaming of Japanese wages to send home, and frankly we need them -- a shrinking country has no other engine. We call it 'temporary' purely so the public doesn't panic, but it's permanent and everyone serious knows it. I've made peace with it: not good, not bad, just the tide coming in.

    1/2At the end of the day, a country's president is what the collective mind chose. Each of us has different opinions, but as a species we haven't evolved a consciousness that truly values love, compassion, or empathy yet. Most of us are still in survival mode -- tribal, family-first, country-first -- and we dislike people different from us.
    2/2Japan is at a tipping point: we could go nationalistic, like the militaristic, alpha-male mistake of 70 years ago, or the other way.

    A country's leader is just what the collective mind chose. Individually we differ, but as a species we haven't evolved a consciousness that truly values compassion or empathy. Most of us are still tribal -- survival, family-first, country-first -- wary of anyone different.

    1/3I don't really read -- I just listen to podcasts and YouTube. But you mentioned Sapiens when we first met, and I've been listening to it; I'm an avid fan, and he's definitely shaped my views. The funny thing is people misunderstand nationalism.
    2/3It really means caring about people you'll never meet -- in Japan, just because you're Japanese, we care. Eventually we have to extend that to everyone -- real globalism. We're thousands of kilometers apart but talking through the internet, and race, country, and faith stop mattering.
    3/3I think we're heading that way eventually.
    NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/2
    I don't read much -- I listen to podcasts and YouTube. But you put me onto Sapiens, and I'm hooked; Harari's really shaped how I think. People misread nationalism: at its core it's caring about people you'll never meet.

    I'm a listener, not a reader -- but you put me onto Sapiens and it rewired me.

You and I are proof, talking across the planet while borders quietly stop mattering.

    Of course there'll be regression first -- some kind of political backslide before we jump. I think we're in a dark age right now: everyone caring only about themselves or their family, a very small circle, a bubble.

    But I think we backslide before we break through -- a dark stretch before the leap. Right now we're in a bubble age, everyone collapsed into 'me and mine,' the circle as small as it gets. Maybe it has to get bad enough to force the jump -- do you buy that, or is that just my optimism?
