Is this meme not about Japanese walking? Comments seem a little too focused on electricity generation while walking.

Half the reels I’ve seen on Instagram in the past have a copy pasted description that starts with “Japan is turning footsteps into electricity!” Regardless of the content of the reel. It’s on everything from make-up tutorials and videos of cute animals, to videos about Israel’s human rights abuses.

I’ve noticed that too, but why? I don’t understand the point of this.

No fucking clue. I think the fact that it’s so baffling is part of what’s turned it into a meme.

Love how it compares “Japanese walking” with “10000 steps”. Didn’t the latter start as a marketing campaign for a Japanese pedometer.
