I have acquired most of my knowledge about ongoing international conflicts from "Golgo 13".

Of course, "Golgo 13" is a fictional story, so I cannot believe them all in their entirety.

From the point of view of an expert on international affairs, some of the ins and outs of the international arena as depicted in "Golgo 13" are frothing at the mouth.

In addition, I personally do not have the information, connections, or intelligence to correctly judge the international situation.

However, when it comes to technical fields, especially computers, networks, and other IT fields, as an engineer who has actually been involved in these fields, I can make judgments.

There are a number of inaccurate descriptions of the interpretation of science and technology in the "Golgo 13" story.

But I am not going to be blindsided by them.

We, the inhabitants of the world of science and technology, are used to this kind of thing.

Rather, on the contrary, I can say that I am getting an opportunity to know, 'Oh, this is how the world sees this technology.

Golgo 13 is basically a story that divides the good guys, the bad guys, and the stupid guys, and portrays the three of them in an opposing structure.

Here, "good", "bad", and "stupid" are different from the socially accepted "righteous", "evil", and "ignorant".

In the story, it is depicted in the style of "the benevolent", "the malevolent", and "the foolish".

The "good guys" are depicted with a "good face," the "bad guys" with a "bad face," and the "stupid guys" with a "stupid face," so I can easily judge them.

So, the other day, I was skimming through the new issue of "Golgo 13" at a convenience store, and I felt something strange.

"The current sitting President of the United States is portrayed as a 'stupid guy'"
