Japanfag here. I "work with" 9 other foreigners, and by that I mean that they work in my same town but we are assigned to work in different schools. I usually never see them unless it's during breaks like the current summer vacation because we don't have lessons scheduled. I have overheard them talking about taking their children to get vaccinated and I just sit there and try not to roll my eyes. Today I overheard two of them talking about voting independent. There's no way they'll vote for ermagerd Drummmmmmpf, but apparently they're getting sick of the Democrat Party at last. One of them is a paid subscriber to NYT and WaPo, so he's a boomer. Just this week he tried telling me that MSG is just a spice like anything else, so apparently it's no worse than turmeric or something. I try to keep my interaction with these people to a minimum because they're lost causes, but it looks like even they are getting tired of what's going on too.
