How can it be a victim blaming when there is no victim here? Being hit on is not being made a victim.

Never heard of it.
I know it may sound crazy, but not everyone is driving around with a phone. That's why you sometimes see updatable signs on highways telling you what AM station to tune into for whatever alert it is they have to issue .
You're right that AM is mostly used by right-wing hatemongers in the US, but they will always find something else. It's not the platform that's the problem.
It's a bit funny to me that this move is coming from Japan. It's been a little more than a decade now, but I used to live in Japan, and good radio stations playing music were all over AM radio when I was there. Maybe it's regional.
It's true that it's largely used for spouting hate in the US. It is also used by transportation departments to share travel warnings, but I doubt that gets a whole lot of usage under normal circumstances.
If AM goes away, the hatemongers will just find another platform.
Other way around. Lobbyists for the auto industry want to get rid of AM to save themselves money, but AM is more reliable than FM for emergency alerts (further range, can penetrate buildings).
What a nice, concise way of letting us all know that you're aggressively rude.
Argue semantics all you want. It is a labor shortage caused by Republican policies which keep out the cheap labor while doing nothing to address the gap that creates.
They don't get fascism is an ethos and not just a pejorative.
They're basically the same with racism.
Florida has been making it increasingly difficult and hazardous for undocumented immigrants to live and work in Florida. Hence labor shortage.
No sane Americans pick up hitchhikers, so that would be interesting indeed.
omg, I actually chuckled. I basically never do that to memes.
Oh I've read what you've had to say. You sure do like the attention. Go on then and enjoy it.
