Disillusioned
These creepy 'idol' groups' soul purpose to sexually exploit young girls. Are they surprised they attract creepy fans?

So so that’s what I’m missing out on by not watching TV? I’m so disappointed, NOT!

What is it with this "spin-off" group? Seems like NGT48 has more attention being paid to it, than the "originals".
Are these "idols" worth it?

And there you have it. Just as usual, election, tax, other political news starts up and something like this will dominate the TV. Happens all the time.

It's growing, growing a lot than my hair on my body or grass in my garden.
There will soon be LDN48, PRS48, and CHN48 & USA48 will have even more, then something48 from Africa....

Enthusiastic fans do something unexpected.
It must be something common to all countries.

That's going to stand up in court!

The UK, France, and USA don't care about J-pop or Japanese idols; they are all K-pop territories where BTS and Blackpink rule. Actually the BTS is called the second coming of the Beatles in the US. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WED4_LAAWk
There was actually something akin to CHN48; it was based in Shanghai and was called SNH48.
Except that the Chinese partner partner broke off with AKS once SNH48 took off in China and ran with it, stealing the SNH48 brand in the process.
If you are interested in SNH48, then take a look here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Pr1S7M7gdI

Sounds a bit close to victim-blaming.
I am no fan of these idol groups either. But their existence doesn't cause people to commit crimes, or to threaten to commit them.
