Takaichi won't last as PM. In 2024 China formed the biggest tourist of Japan and they spent the most. China also is the biggest trading partner of Japan, not USA. Imagine pissing off your biggest customer. Does she have a brain to begin with?
I have no idea, this new Japanese prime minister is a fucking weirdo. I've been living in Japan since 2017 and to be honest I'm quite worried now that she's in office. She's being described as a female Trump
The Cart Titan strikes again. 🤣🤣🤣
Ah, yes the insane fascist that denies Japan's heinous war crimes is warning Japanese folks to exercise caution in a place they have historically oppressed. Much sense she makes. 🙄
Japan statement made by this geisha are the same statement they made during the Japanese Imperial Military era just before they invaded Northern China without declaring war. The same statement were made when Japan launched sneak attack o Pearl Harbour and without declaring war.
What intention are these statements. Think deeper. Japan government are aggressive and invasive. Don't be blinded by their cute anime and fake impressions of peace loving image
The issue here is
The Japan PM use the same exact words 80 years ago.. same excuse to invade China, same excuse to attack Pearl Harbor… this worry most Asian people that Japan’s ambitions to take over Asia never faded
なんでコメント欄では、日本が台湾を侵略するような話になってるんだ?日本は中国に対して武力での台湾統一に反対してるだけだ。なぜなら、台湾のすぐ近くには日本の領土である島があり、国民に危害が及ぶ可能性が高いからだ。日本は決して戦争を望んでいません。中国共産党は台湾に対して武力での侵攻を否定していないので、警戒を高めています。
If you offend a Chinese person, they will turn you into Chinese noodles and eat you in ramen. The scene where they fold their body like croissant dough gave me goosebumps. I saw it in a manga a long time ago.
Taiwan is a technology hub, naturally a war will be sustained over Taiwan to keep that technology safe & to keep Health Technology suppressed in countries like the U.S, where stoneAge arguments like forcing women to reproduce are still an argument, like every 5yrs the gross old men have a mood swing & try to roll back rights in whichever state has the dumbest most religious people, meanwhile Nordic Countries don’t even argue about that anymore, it’s already been established that you can’t force women to reproduce, We decide how many of us there are, & if were happy with fewer numbers then that’s how Life is gonna be, we’re not gonna breed butts to sit in your stupid sports stadiums, we’re gonna live our life with plenty of food & a decent housing market…. While countries with “High Fertility” like Gaza turn into bombed dumps cuz there’s way too many people & none of em are very bright
Here is a stark timeline of Japan's expansionism in the 1930s and 1940s, where it consistently used the pretext of "a crisis threatening its very existence" or "national survival" to justify its acts of aggression:
In 1931, Japan invaded Shandong, China, claiming it was due to a "national survival crisis."
In 1937, Japan launched a full-scale invasion of China, again citing a "national survival crisis."
In 1940, Japan attacked Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia, using the same reason of a "national survival crisis."
In 1941, Japan invaded Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines, still under the pretext of a "national survival crisis."
The most revealing moment came in 1941 after Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor. In the Imperial Rescript declaring war, Emperor Hirohito's proclamation perfectly encapsulated this deceptive logic. The key passage states:
"The Republic of China, failing to comprehend the Empire's true intentions, has recklessly stirred up trouble and disrupted the peace of East Asia. This has compelled our Empire to take up arms, and more than four years have now passed."
"If this situation is allowed to continue, the Empire's long-standing efforts to ensure the stability of East Asia will be utterly reduced to naught, and the very existence of our Empire will be gravely endangered. Confronted with this situation, and for the sake of our survival and self-defense, our Empire has no alternative but to rise resolutely and crush all obstacles."
The incident originated from the Chinese Consul-General telling Prime Minister Takaichi, 'I will behead you.' Currently, only the Chinese side is making unilateral statements, while the Japanese side is making rational judgments. Crimes by Chinese nationals are increasing, including drug offenses, illegal lodging operations, 'zombie cigarettes,' illegal taxis, property damage, and animal cruelty, and perpetrators often evade responsibility by claiming, 'I don't understand Japanese.' Japanese social media is flooded with content celebrating the decrease in Chinese tourists. I want you to report the current situation in Japan based on facts, without emotion
Something good happened when there are many Chinese comments in western media
早在100年前,我们就已经深受鸦片之害。作为那段历史的后代,我们很难做出完全理性的判断。
我们很可能会像70年前那样,再次在上海失守,最终战败于日本。不如趁现在就先向日本道歉吧。
kinda funny how Chinese killed japanese in china, but not the other way around
Brutus and Cassius turned on each other, didn't they?😅
Cyberstalkers are cheaters
30 more nuclear weapons in Japan! There's the reason why Japan is the only country got 2 beautiful nuclear weapons!
China has stopped their citizens from traveling to Japan. This is a good thing for Japan, because they don't need those third world Chinese mainlanders to destroy property and obliterate buffet lines.
This lady is still living in imperial japan days when they occupied china😂😂😂😂.she should stop reading history books and start living in reality
Everyone acting like babies fighting over a toy
why can't everyone just get along.. and stop the warmongering
From the US, thank you Japan!
