Is This a Broader Kind of Struggle?

i've been surprised, to be honest, by how deeply this has sort of penetrated public consciousness here and in japan. I haven't been in japan as long as iwaa in russia, ukraine, but it certainly seems to me that this is resignated at an unusual level. Just to mention, i spoke to mama three days ago, last time, when she was laid in the bathroom floor, hiding from bons teote doll. So i think a real sense amongst folks here in japan that this conflict is connected to something larger, that this is about a broader kind of struggle with different forms of authoritarianrussian violence.
