More weird misogynistic right-wing conspiracy theories

It's no conspiracy theory.

It's a fact that many western women, in social media, mainstream media as well as IRL, are bemoaning the fact that they wish they'd married and started having a family instead.

But a certain group of people don't want that....

They don't want women to focus on families.

Like I said, it's neither the male nor the female Japanese politicians.

But another....

Beate Sirota Gordon has no direct role in Japan's declining birth rate

Her kind are never direct. Always indirect. Always behind the scenes.

What's your spin?

Ever wonder why in countries where feminism was promoted, there has been a decrease in birthrate?

Or why in the west where it has has been infesting for so long, NOW women are wishing they'd married and had children instead?

What has 8-years of "woman" governor brought to Tokyo ? 0.9 birth rate, and decreasing. Does gender matter?

People like to blame either Japanese male politicians or Japanese female politicians for the declining birth rate.

But what if there was another player?

Look up Beate Sirota Gordon.

Instead of taxis, why not flying ambulances and flying fire engines? To rescue people in disaster areas?

I hope it's not a case of Japanese tax-payer money being used to funnel Sri Lanka's debt and ending up in china pockets.

The Myanmar govt is a puppet of the ChiNazi CCP.

So I'm not surprised they'd go after Japanese businesses.

I like the top photo...like something out of an 80s-90s anime.

Australian diplomat says adding AUKUS partners like Japan complicated

Trace the money trail.

Who is he connected to?

Who funds his campaigns? CCP?

Or some china "businessman"?

Couldn’t they have issued a warning first?

It depends on how she behaved when the cops caught her.

Knowing china people, and having witnessed how argumentative & violent they are when caught red handed, I'm not surprised she was referred to the prosecutors.

Throw the suitcase....I mean the book..at her.

She could have knocked over and killed a child or senior citizen.

I'm generally not impressed by whatever the chinese do.

But even I have to take my hat off to this brave woman for saving a Japanese family's life.

It’ll be a cold day in hell before I buy a Chinese car. Will buy a Nissan before I buy PYT, KFC, BFG or BYD whatever the eff it’s called. Thanks, but no thanks.

You car has parts made in China you know. They are the suppliers.

Thankfully not all the parts are made in china. The more vital parts are mostly made in Japan.

You ever wonder why the rich & affluent china-nese would rather buy branded goods that are NOT made in china? Or why they are taking their money out of china?

So, 30 days for the ccp to bribe & buy Canadian politicians to rule in the ccp's favor.

It shouldn't take this long. 30 mins is all it takes.

It could be argued that China has already surpassed Japan in technology, but you won't read that in the Japan News!

It could be argued that China has already surpassed Japan in STOLEN technology.

There, fixed it for you.

Not surprised. Yokohama is infested with "those" people. As SaikoPhysco wrote above:

My guess is it will be mainly those of Chinese descent living in Japan that will buy them

Picnic has disrupted the Dutch supermarket landscape with its offer of free delivery in a time window of 20 minutes -- made possible by squeezing efficiency out of huge amounts of data

I find it unbelievable that they can deliver everything within 20mins. What happens if there are traffic jams or traffic accidents?

Japan is not a party to the South China Sea issue and has no right to intervene in China-Philippines maritime matters

china has no right to tell Japan what to do.

china has no rights to be in Philippines waters.

china has no right to be in Tibet.

china has no right to be in Vietnamese waters.

china has no rights to be in Senkaku.

china has no rights to bully Taiwan.

china has no rights.

I demand that these burgers be delivered via flying broomsticks and a black cat.

The company is fighting the law in U.S. courts, and the Chinese government has said it would not accept the divestment of one of the country's most successful tech brands.

That's odd. I thought the owner of TT claimed he was a "Singaporean" and had "nothing to do with the chinese government".

So, then why is the chinese government going into panic mode because of this? If according to the CEO, he really is a "Singaporean", then it has nothing to do with china, right?

@ Fizzbit, I think I read somewhere a SECOND whistleblower also died mysteriously.

she put the baby in her car and wanted to take him to a hospital, but didn't know where to go

Indeed, where would she go? Japan has how many baby hatches for the whole country, two, three? She would have had to travel from Gifu to Tokyo for that.

Even though these cases are thankfully very infrequent, Japan urgently needs a support system for mothers who don't know where to turn to. This is not a crime out of malice, but one out of desperation.

I agree. I think even if baby hatches are not available in every town, perhaps the temples that are in every town can step in and help?

Not encouraging women to abandon babies in temples but rather than dumping the baby in toilets, garbage dumps and cars, leaving the innocent baby at a temple would be more humane, isn't it?

Priests and nuns can help by promising confidentially and respecting the young mothers' privacy. At least a child's life can be saved.

The fact that the first thing everyone thought of was china trying to steal it just goes to show that china has come to associate itself with theft, stealing and cheating.

Japanese tourism is definitely not "dependent on China". There are millions of others from countless other nations planning trips to Japan to sample the famous hospitality, history, food and unique culture.

Funny, as I hear Mandarin Chinese all over the place.

It’s ironic that tourism is one of the fastest growing businesses in Japan largely dependent on …China!

I guess it's no wonder that the flesh-eating virus has suddenly flared up in Japan. Gee, I wonder who brought it in here?

*Australia is the only country that has a trade surplus with China. They would lose a helluva lot of trade if they act nasty toward China at the behest of USA. It's funny how Australia has allowed itself to spend so much money on nuclear subs which may or may not materialize, and which they won't get for a long time, and they won't even be entitled to a refund should things go (further) south. And worst of all, they won't even have control of those subs - there's a clause saying USA has final control. Australia really knows how to lose money.*

Enriching the military industrial complex and a few politicians and elites, as usual.

Your entire post reveals 3 things about china-nese mentality & fears with regards to Australians:

Money: You think Australians only care about money and that china can dangle money in front of Australians and threaten to take it away if Australians don't do the ccp's bidding. After all, it worked with weaker countries that china likes to bully and control ( like Sri Lanka and Vietnam).

Nuclear subs: china fears that Australia will have the guts and the means to fight back if china tries bullying Australia in her own waters and territories.

3. USA - china fears the US and you wish it was china controlling the Australians instead. That's why any form of mutual co-operation and understanding between US and Australian is seen as threat by the ccp and makes them feel afraid.

Even with china ramming Philippine ships at sea, in International Waters, people are still questioning why the US is in Okinawa.

I think there are also enough adequate people in Japan who cannot find an answer to the obvious question: what is the US doing in Syria? They are probably the people who are able to extrapolate situations.

Is it really the US who wants to be in Syria....or whoever is CONTROLLING the US that wants US to be in Syria?

Hint: It's not the Americans.

Hong Kong has always been Chinese territory. That the English forced a 99 lease after attacking China for pushing back on the illegal British opium trade in China is history I would think anyone interested in East Asia would know about.

The difference is that Hong Kongers don't want to be part of china now. They'd rather be under the British or be independent. Hong Kongers don't want anything to do with china now.

I'm sure the CCP's servant Li Qiang's recent visit to NZ had nothing to do with it. Surely not to send a subtle warning to NZ's PM not to go to Japan, right?
