So the joke is...you're a bigot? Seppuku is not a common part of modern Japanese culture, nor is the death penalty a uniquely Japanese idea.

- Bootvis 13y agoI guess that's the joke but it isn't mine. I don't think understanding the joke makes me a bigot. Fact is, seppuku is a part of relatively recent Japanese culture whereas it's not a part of European culture. In Europe suicide has been socially unacceptable since the fall of the Roman Empire.
