NB : It’s bad that japan does those kinds of things, not that it should also be acceptable for arab countries to do them too.

    There is literally a picture of a vending machine in the article

    True. But that picture is like those AI videos on youtube today where the thumbnail doesn’t show up in the video. According to this article, those vending machines were banned in 2004 and the trade in used panties was driven to specialized shops.

    Edit:

    that was one person, not a pattern of behaviour by the masses Does this count?

      Dude ok, I’m going to post some corrections, but you’re too annoying.

      But that picture is like those AI videos on youtube today where the thumbnail doesn’t show up in the video.

      It’s wikipedia. The photo is from 2009, and it’s uploaded 2015. It’s a real thing, it isn’t AI, not everything is fake news, things happen.

      Does this count?

      That’s not bathwater, it’s panties.

        At this point you should just tell us what message you’re trying to convey, and then we can simply say “you’re right” and be done with it.
