Thanks.
While I’m not in favor of boycotting culture, I do feel like boycotting products and services that incorporate it.
So I try to buy boycotted cultural products secondhand whenever possible.
This way, I can legally obtain culture, but it prevents American companies from making any additional profits. (Naturally, I avoid using Amazon[.]com when making these purchases.)
The problem then arises when an American artist performs in the country where I live.
Naturally, experiential entertainment cannot be recorded, meaning it cannot be purchased secondhand. This issue determines whether a boycott is feasible based on how individual artists respond to corruption in the United States.
Separately, I also try to avoid cultural dependency on social media platforms such as YouTube and x[.]com by prioritizing domestic alternatives (such as Nico Nico Douga and mixi2).
In Japanese, the English phrase “12 years old” is written as ‘12歳’ or “12才”.
Both “歳” and ‘才’ are read as “sai,” and “歳” is the standard form.
As an exception, since children in elementary education typically learn the character “歳” before “才,” it is sometimes common to write ages as “12才” during the period after learning ‘才’ but before learning “歳.”

I found a study that may be helpful.
The project is called the Chapel Hill Expert Survey, which is being conducted by Gary Marks of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and others, and asks political experts in each country to evaluate the policy positions of major political parties in EU member states.
This survey interprets the multidimensional political conflict as stated in the question, and in the latest survey (Version 2025.1), it is measured by the following conflict terms:
