"TikTok Ban Is The Way Forward" But The Japanese People Are Conflicted
Tumblr media
TOKYO, JAPAN - This week, the United States' House of Representatives in Washington D.C has passed a bill banning TikTok in the United States, should its parent company, ByteDance, refuse a sale to an American counterpart within 6 months. While still being debated in the US Senate, this move has caused shockwaves across the tech world and now, the political world.
A local Japanese activist from a notable conservative, nationalist activist group, Arakasa 'Jones' Waru has been gaining traction on social media for his advocacy of a similar solution to the issue. "TikTok is a medium of Communist Subversion of the Japanese People!", he shouted today outside of the Diet, unaware that members were in recess for the season. "We ought to ban TikTok Now!". However, polls have shown that most Japanese people are still unaware of the TikTok Ban idea, and those who know about it, are spilt roughly equally on the idea. A man who was interviewed replied, "TikTok ban? What? How can I watch the entirety of The Sopranos for free if they ban it?"

Bills bills bills
Noted political commentator Jenii Ma has commented recently on the turmoil happening in the diet of Japan. "It is heartening to finally see the representatives who we pay oh so much finally write something. However, it looks like they have some issues with the US bases in Okinawa. What these issues have to do with article 9 is anyone's guess."

I like to work it work it
Notable political columnist Timoshii Kuu for The Kyoto Post has commented on the current debate raging in the Diet of Japan with a scathing essay titled " All talk no action in the diet?" Timoshii mentioned the lack of a roadmap to a bill addressing the debate on article 9. Although she commended the actions of some representatives in raising points, she wonders why there is a lack of conclusive substantive writing for the resolution. Timoshii echoed the comments made by Seannu Suguwara on his podcast, saying "Although he may have made those comments in protest, even mainstream commenters may have to take a similar view into consideration, given the lack of bills even proposed or shown in the diet recently."

No Response?
Tumblr media
Prominent political critic Seannu Sugawara has released a new episode of his popular podcast, the Seannu Sugawara Experience, titled: "What in the world is the Diet doing?"
Seannu is quoted as saying "The government has a duty to protect its nation, and to protect its nations interests. In recent times, the Diet has convened to discuss the issue of amendments to Article 9, but seemingly have been sitting on their asses and no progress has been made? he Japan Herald even showed a photo of a clique of ministers dining in a 3 star ramen restaurant! Apparently there hasn't even been discussion of any of the clauses in a bill yet, yet alone any bills that have been raised! What do we even pay these people for!"

BREAKING NEWS: MAJOR RUMOURS LEAKED!
Tumblr media
The Japan Herald, a tabloid reporting on juicy entertainment gossip and the "big news that everyone should hear from the grapevine" has come out with the breaking news that there have been rumours of a cabinet reshuffle? As Fumio Kishida was seen walking out of Parliament this morning for coffee, our reporters have seen a pensive look on his face while he shuffles quicker than usual to his favourite coffee shop, Kono Coffee. When asked about the state of the cabinet currently, Kishida looked stoic, saying: "No comment. The cabinet will speak for itself."
Our reporters have also received a anonymous tip from someone who identified themself as a backbencher, saying: "What are these fellas doing! Not even finding a big oil field in the middle of Japan could attract the US to come back to us if this goes on."

lack of a whip?
Leaks have come out that the CDP-SDP coalition in the House of Representatives have failed to even have one vote towards their nominated party whip! One member of the public with a raspy voice, seeming to float above the ground was interviewed. Going by the name of Shinzo Abe, they were recorded saying "Is the House of Representatives a farce? Will both parties CDP and SDP dissolve seeing that they don't have a member of the diet to keep them to their parties stances?"
Another leak has come out that the CDP-SDP have decided to alliance themselves with Reiwa forming a three party coalition, and that a new whip may be nominated soon. The public awaits any further developments in this situation.
