As both of Japablum's informed daily readers surely know, the great country of America didn't invent the concept of the scary and emotionally unhinged political power player. We're just really good at producing them. But we must give Japan some props, y'all, because their cultural, political, and financial capital is led by a man who would get along quite swimmingly with the current American yahoos in power if he didn't hate white people so much. But that's nothing compared to his hatred for the Chinese:
"There is fear–and not without cause–that it will not be long before the entire nature of Japanese society itself will be altered by the spread of this type of crime that is indicative of the ethnic DNA [of the Chinese].”
And women:
"Old women who live after they have lost their reproductive function are useless and are committing a sin."
And Africans:
"Roppongi is now virtually a foreign neighborhood. Africans — I don't mean African-Americans — who don't speak English are there doing who knows what. This is leading to new forms of crime such as car theft. We should be letting in people who are intelligent." (For the record, we here at Japablum think it's about time that someone taught the Japanese how to steal cars.)
Most troubling of all is the man's hatred for the child in everyone:
"I hate Mickey Mouse." (Real quote!)
Yes, say hello to Tokyo's governor, Shintaro Ishihara, who is running again for the decreasingly esteemed office and who will probably prevail in the end because, as Japablum and its allies know all too well, in this crazy mixed-up world we live in, dickheads almost always win.
