> this week, Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party and its coalition partners won a two-thirds majority in the legislature’s upper house...amending the constitution is one of the central planks in the LDP’s platform.
> LDP legislators and ministers — including Japan’s prime minister, Shinzo Abe — are members of a radical nationalist organization called Nippon Kaigi, which believes (according to one of its members, Hakubun Shimomura, who until recently was Japan’s education minister) that Japan should abandon a “masochistic view of history” wherein it accepts that it committed crimes during the Second World War. In fact, in Nippon Kaigi’s view, Japan was the wronged party in the war.
> According to the Congressional Research Service, Nippon Kaigi believes that “Japan should be applauded for liberating much of East Asia” during WW2, that the “Tokyo War Crimes tribunals were illegitimate,” and that the rape of Nanking was either “exaggerated or fabricated.” It denies the forced prostitution of Chinese and Korean “comfort women” by the Imperial Japanese Army, believes Japan should have an army again — something outlawed by Japan’s current constitution — and believes that it should return to worshipping the emperor.

Should The GOP Adopt A No More Trumps Rule For 2020?
http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/437887/should-gop-adopt-no-more-donald-trumps-rule-2020
Let me suggest two potential rules, both somewhat novel, that could help prevent the twin problems of (1) a hostile takeover of the party by an outsider whose ideas and interests are opposed to the views of the majority of the party and (2) the nomination of a figure with minority support in the party due to a divided opposition.
The first would be a more or less explicit “Trump Rule”: a candidate who does not meet a minimum threshold of experience within the party may not be awarded the majority of delegates in any state. “Extra” delegates won by votes for such candidates could be allocated to unbound “superdelegates.” A minimum could be four or six years in certain specified offices as a Republican – Governor, Senator, Representative, Vice President, Cabinet Secretary, Mayor, state Attorney General, perhaps a few others.
The second potential rule change – which might be difficult to enforce in terms of ballot access, but could be effectively enforced through rules on delegates and debates, assuming the primary calendar is less compressed and less geographically unbalanced in the future – would be to have an escalating series of thresholds that a candidate must pass in order to remain in the race. Such thresholds already exist for debates, but they are very low and tend to rely on polls; these would be based on delegate and/or popular vote results in the early states.
Preventing hostile outsiders from using a minority of the vote to cram down a nominee unacceptable to the majority is exactly what party rules are for.
>>81348399
This is pretty cool.
Congratulations Japan.

You know, in a sense, we have this as well. We have a freedom of speech, but the law can put on restrictions, or as it says: "to the responsibility of every person under the law."

Some of you seem to confuse Patriotism with Nationalism.
It's actually quite easy to defend ones traditions and be proud of your country without being Nationalistic. (Progressives love to lump the two together and scream JINGOSIM at any display of pride in America. Nothing gets them frothing at the mouth more than the idea of American exceptionalism)
> Nationalism is not to be confused with patriotism. Both words are normally used in so vague a way that any definition is liable to be challenged, but one must draw a distinction between them, since two different and even opposing ideas are involved. By ‘patriotism’ I mean devotion to a particular place and a particular way of life, which one believes to be the best in the world but has no wish to force on other people. Patriotism is of its nature defensive, both militarily and culturally. Nationalism, on the other hand, is inseparable from the desire for power. The abiding purpose of every nationalist is to secure more power and more prestige, not for himself but for the nation or other unit in which he has chosen to sink his own individuality.

Pretty sure he's talking about the rapid industrialisation of Japan post-Sakoku, and more importantly post-Meiji Restauration. Which was driven mostly by British and French investments (and to a lesser extent by American and German investments), sure, but it's still very impressive.

>picture related we are friends with everybody, Jews, Muslims, refugees welcome, but bad China for not having interracial sex to produce American mud blood prostitutes

Weird, in my country everyone is protected and white people. You can legit get a miniorty jailed here for saying kill all whites.

You guys truly don't know shit about Japan. Calling it "fascism" is the same as calling Trump or Lepen "Hitler". Fucking retards I swear.

They used the plague, not HIV. HIV didn't exist back then.
And yes it would. I still want to know what the LDP's position on Unit 731 was. Vivisecting people after injecting them with disease, sewing their arms back on backward and is a lot harder to paint a pretty picture of than burning thousands of people to death.

Liberal policy: we do nothing, we don't secure borders, we don't prosecute financial crime, we break up with tradition, we don't mind foreigners on our land, we don't mind being occupied, we don't solve drug related crime, as long as we keep the job, then we call it democracy and freedom. IT'S DA FREEDOM, GET IT?

>In fact, in Nippon Kaigi’s view, Japan was the wronged party in the war.
Just how completely and utterly deluded do you have to be to believe this? Even if you throw out the atrocities committed in China and the frankly barbaric treatment of POWs - which there is plenty of evidence for - and reduce it to absolutely unquestionable events Japan still fucking started it all.

Get ready for a Japanese civil war against the Government
2016 so many happenings all at once what is going on in the world
>>81357675
i'll bite
i think its wrong because the article is criticizing the wish of the Japanese to be a real nation once again, choose their traditional fixtures of government such as shintoism and the emperor as god, and accept their ability to wage war as any other state

>>81355998
You're kinda right. I personally think the rise of ultra-nationalism in Japan can be traced to two things:
-During the Paris Peace Conference in 1919, the Japanese proposed a "racial equality clause". They just saw it as "Japanese people are not inferior" clause, but as you can imagine Western powers, mainly Britain and the US saw it differently. The proposition got the majority of votes, but the UK and US refused to vote, so Wilson overturned the decision saying that for something this important, an unanimous vote was needed. This was widely reported in Japan, anti-British and anti-American sentiment rose, and quickly it became simply an anti-western sentiment. It's also why the "honorary Aryans" thing is pretty big deal.
-Western powers consistently cockblocking Japan in it's expansion. After both the Sino-Japanese war and the Russo-Japanese war, western powers, mainly Britain and France, intervened and asked Japan to back down on some of their claims, or not take as much territory, or money.

Nationalism is on the rise. Look at all the Trump niggers. They all want to feel like their nation is a special snowflake that can do no wrong and want to nig and pretend they dindu nuffin.

Declaring oil embargo is grounds for war when Japan barely has any resources.
Also, don't even pretend America was neutral before their entry in WW2.
We were already spying and attacking German naval activity for the British.
Pearl Harbor was just a convenient excuse to publicly announce our entry into WW2 when we had already sided with Britain long ago.

Sure, it has to, since Abo doesn't likes to give Japanese animators money when he can fuel American Jew Hollywood. Did you listen to latest Miley Cryrus or Metallica album? If not, you better check it out, it's made in USA, only in USA they make music and films and if that's not the case, liberal democratic politicians will make sure that is the case, since what is freedom without 100% American ownership over media.

The Opium War did more damage to China than Japan ever did.
>>81352999
Thank you, based trips. Just like ww1, the usa was willing to do whatever it took to get in on the action.
Chink here.
I could give a shit whether Nanking ever happened or was a hoax. If they conquered China like they did Taiwan and South Korea, it would have been a better result than today. I welcome my new Japanese rulers.

Free speech is degenerate. It allows subversive progressive philosophy and degeneracy to flourish in society. I'll take the freedom from cultural erosion that is enviable in any free liberal democracy over "free speech" any day.

Technically, Taiwan has a longer history of being owned by Japan than current Taiwanese living on Taiwan.
The current Chinese living on Taiwan are the fleeing Nationalists from Mao's Purge and America forced Japan to surrender Taiwan after WW2 but the terms were Japan surrendering Taiwan to America not to the fleeing Nationalists but America temporarily allowed the Nationalists to chill at Taiwan
This left a legal limbo that America's Congress and Japan never bothered further elaborating on which is why some Taiwanese claim Taiwan is the 51st State of America and Taiwan doesn't really have the legal right to own Taiwan.
However, America and Japan don't plan to fix this legal limbo anytime soon.
Also, prior to Japan's ownership of Taiwan.
Taiwan was mainly populated by either Chinese rebel rejects that refused the authority of the Chinese Dynasty and made a livelihood as pirates at the time or Europeans.
