Maybe Trump's demands of other countries has scared his other allies, so the better relations with China is there in case Trump tries to tariff Japan
I think that's exactly what it is, Japan is in a bad place economically now and they're really worried about what Trump will do to them.
Honestly a 10% tariff could really mess them up and the gov could collapse if they are force to cede an island.
Its good to see the US slowily losing its complete influence over some of its satellites
yup
Trump's brain is still stuck in the 1980s when Japanophobia was a cultural phenomenon, so I think they're right to be worried.
Title makes it feel like that’s what he calls his cock tbh
🤣
Communist Party of Japan, time to awaken from your liberal slumber - let's see the great East Asian Communist Bloc across Japan, China, unified Juche Korea, Vietnam, Laos, and more.
the JCP is openly antagonistic to China and it doesn't have any relevance since the 80s (you can partly blame the new left for that). China mostly have good relationship with the LDP
hence why they must awaken from their liberal slumber - it's only been 70 years since the were doing guerrilla warfare in the mountains
only been 70 years since the were doing guerrilla warfare in the mountains
This is probably what killed the left in Japan (and it is not done by the right wing in this case)
Nah, it was the collapse of the student movements
that would be a sight to see
it is only a logical conclusion for Japan to be more integrated within the east Asian Economic bloc. This is just coming back to the LDP's root in the late 70s
For those who didn't see it, Hasan toured the JCP last week
It wasn't super interesting, but I'd say it was very mildly interesting.
It was informative, but my favorite part was how dope their newspaper operation is, and how their investigative reporting is incredibly important for exposing corruption (in politics and corporations). And every party member, even the highest committee members, have to deliver the papers one day a week.
