Ruling LDP and its allies are set to win more than 2/3 of contested seats.
That would enable Shinzo Abe cabinet's long-sought goal of re-writing Japanese post-WWII constitution.
This wouldn't only involve repealing article 9, which ensures that Japan is a pacifist country, but also strengthen PM's emergency powers, restrict press freedom, abolish separation of church and state and promote nationalism.
That would be a major setback for Japanese democracy and would set Japan on a path toward illiberalism.
Old retarded pedo, who gives a shit about his concern?
Thomas Price
This is kind of stupid how people are associating the LDP with pre-war Japan. They are literally two different governments. They are more of a centrist group than conservative
Isaiah Rodriguez
Japanese are too cucked to every be strong again. They have been too feminized for 3 generations by the pop culture they created to ever want to be samurais again
Lucas Jenkins
LDP used to have many platform, but currently nationalists are the dominant one
Shinzo Abe and majority of senior ministers belong to revisionist society Nippon Kaigi
His maternal grandfather was a class A war criminal and also served as a PM
Michael Cooper
I really hope the best for Japan.
If they do good it will be a encouragment for us to change and if they do bad a warning.
Ryan Johnson
They will watch JoJo and become GAR.
Nicholas Martin
It will be good if Japan does this, because it will show that not only small, weak or economically backwards countries can be illiberal.
Luke Thompson
>abolish separation of church and state kek,you're making catholic the state religion?
Ian Howard
Presumably shinto.
Gabriel Rodriguez
No, state shinto

LDP voters are usually geezers, construction workers, fish deliverymen, farmers and hikki-neet netouyos, which form 70% of the population of Japan
Benjamin Bailey
No one took me seriously when i told them to vote communist
Cameron Gonzalez
that's some cheeky critics of democracy you're doing there.
Jason Reed
>2016 >not worshipping Our lady of Fátima
Connor White
Would Shinzo really want to restrict freedom of press and unite church and state? The other stuff sounds possible (and some likely), but I have trouble imagining those two things.
Alexander Reed
Based Abe gonna ban anime
Weebs on suicide watch
Tyler Cook
It is in their draft constitution. It has a lot of interesting stuff in it.
Hudson James
>Based Abe gonna ban anime That would be financially stupid. But not much room to talk here.

I hope he's successful then.
The reemergence of nationalism across the world might just save Europe.
Caleb Davis

Aiden Stewart
Godspeed Shinzo
Caleb Nelson
>restrict freedom of press He already kind of did that some time ago with the new state secrets law
Regarding state Shinto, he wants to go back to pre-war traditional values. Respect to the Emperor, obedience to family and the state etc.
Ayden Davis
What other cunts are having nationalist turnings? US is close if the establishment doesn't cheat and put in shillary. Britians in the pool. Now Japan is expected.
Joseph Carter
Anime was a mistake.webm
Dylan Thomas
Memes on you, I actually enjoy this song.
Henry Cruz
>financially not really The socialcultural basis of japan would change.He should implement measures to increase population and decrease suicide rates. Japan actually has a low tourist rate so the ban of anime wouldn't matter,the foreign market is too small. Banning anime would destroy some jobs but who gives a fuck.
Caleb Walker
Rightfully so
Landon Parker
Fair enough.
Oliver Peterson
Anime would propably just make a shift from degenrate pedo moe slice of life stories for fat perma virgins to heroic epic manly masculine testosteron animes.
Michael Jones
Anime won't be banned anyway. He has a base of support in the hikki demographic.
Andrew Thomas
The women of Korea and China will rise up and crush Abe and his LDP
Xavier Parker
How is that bad? Will probably raise the birth rates.
Mason Adams
Which is not the majority... The anime community is probably more left leaning,they like western influence. the right wingers are normies....
Benjamin Martinez
It's not good when you don't want to see a new war in the Pacific

Ryan Scott
There is literally nothing wrong with a war in the pacific.
Hudson Foster
maybe it's a good thing for amine to be banned
my backlog is already ridiculously long as it is, the last thing I need is new series and VNs being added
Lucas Thompson
What war? Who will do the war?
1. Japan fucks up its releation with the US = Hard Buttfuck by China 2. Japan touches Korea = 1. 3. Japan touches China = Buttfuck by China 4. Japan touches Taiwan = 1.
What options to they have? What they do inside their country is really their own buisness.
Matthew Rogers
To walk the road of peace, sometimes we need to be ready to climb the mountain of conflict
Nicholas Brooks
just like in nanking? You don't know how far japanese people go when it comes to violence... I remember reading in some history books in school that while china was being pillaged and raped by the japanese,alot of chinese fled to macau and were protected by the portuguese,the attrocities they told to our soldier made some of us puke.
Don't mistake anime with real life,anime portrays japanese life as reflected by western influence.japanese people do not behave like in anime,westerners do...
Adrian Peterson
seriously, how would you propose saving Japan's demographics? if they don't do something drastic FAST then they're facing massive problems which could destroy the entire Japanese society in a few decades.
Robert Bennett
World economy is much more dependent on East Asia now than it was 70 years ago.
China and NK have nukes. Japan might acquire them in the future.

That is fine. Japan should have nuked, so should South Korea. It would act as a deterrent.
Jackson Edwards
will Japan still be bros with the US?
Thomas Gray

You think the overaged population of 120million Japanese can defeat the modern China of their massive production capacities (japan produces a lot of their stuff their themselves) and 1,3billion.
As long as there is a USA, China can't make Japan their playball.
Michael Ortiz
the only thing these women can crush is his penis as Abe's BJC (Big Japanese Cock) relentlessly and without care of his own well being brings forth a hike in birthrates. it'll be like the good ol' days, and they'll like it. Korean women are just longing for it, you can see it in their faces: they want BJC
John Wood
Better rev up that commonwealth
Ryder Martin
>yfw JAV will be banned >yfw our Queen, Anri Okita, will lose her source of income >yfw she'll probably end up a homeless begger who gets abused, and will eventually be decapitated by an imperial soldier wielding a katana because of "disonoraburu behaviour for a woman" japan please don't
Andrew Jackson
Japan and South Korea hate each other's guts. The only thing that keeps them at peace is a common enemy in North Korea.
Unified Korea would be much closer to China than to the US.
Carter Taylor
So, war wih Russia for islands soon?
Hudson Hall
well, wathever.
Just hopes the world does the right thing this time and send them straight to the stone age if they decide to go apeshit again.
Christian Martin
Their birthrate isn't that extremely low. Japan's problem is very low immigration.
Oliver Hughes
Two nukes wasn't enough.
Jack Campbell
Just have more children, then no need for immigration. Immigration is a huge cancer and not worth it.
Ayden Hill
I hope he wins.
Japan doesnt want immigration.
Alexander Jones
are you perphaps,retarded? Any modern developed nation suffers from this problem.Immigration is just a left wing political move,germany and france have tried it,ask them how they feel about it now...
Blake Ortiz
not my concern.
Mason Watson
the fuck are you talking about? it's one of the lowest in the entire fucking world
>immigration Let's just do some quick math here. Let's assume the replacement rate is 2.0 (in reality, it's slightly higher, but let's just assume). So, in other words, 1 child per person. Let's be generous and round up Japan's fertility rate to 1.5. That means that, for every person, there's only 0.75 being born. So, if you wanted to compensate and have the same demographics as a 2.0 fertility rate, that would mean needing 25% of your population in immigration. Now, IRL there are other mechanisms at play, such as population lag/momentum, but eventually, in the long term, if you want to compensate for natural demographic loss with immigration, this is more or less what you'll be doing. And then it continues, because more than likely the Japanese's birthrate will still be just as low.
Bottom line: you cannot fix a low fertility rate with immigration. It's not feasible in the slightest. At best you can use it as a temporary bandaid as western countries are currently doing, but the problem will not be fixed, even once the baby boomers are dead.
So, I ask you again, how would you fix Japan's demographic problem?

I don't really see anything serious coming out of this, most Japanese are not interested in these propositions, so in the long run it won't work out.
Henry Wright
This is why we declared independence.
Lucas Parker
Japan is xenophobic central.
I'm not really sure how dismantling free press, abolishing separation of state and church, singing nationalist chants and turning autocratic is gonna help make Japan great again, when it didn't work back in the good old 1930's.
Not that I care much desu. In fact, the sooner japs and chinks nuke-exterminate each other, the better.
Nathan Brooks
All those things are Japan's last attempt to revive from economic recession starting in late 80's. If they fail this time, they won't rise again. South Korea has the same problem just that they are trying to do more multikulti and try to use unification (or even if that doesn't happen just absorbing some NK population after its dissolution) to resolve population issues, both of which are actually not that successful so far.
Gavin Green
Germany has significantly more immigration than Japan does. Once the migrants settle down, that rate is going up fast. To solve Japan's population issue, they need to allow immigration. That would fix shit pretty quick since a fuck ton of chinese and southeast asians will flood in and start fucking like hamsters.
