A few facts about the Japanese Communist Party: >Is the oldest political party in Japan (founded in 1922) >Is the only legitimate opposition to Abe's LDP >Has representatives in all of Japan's provinces >Cares about the working conditions of the Japanese people (being overworked to death is a serious problem in Japan) >Want (((US forces))) out of Japan >Is a nationalist party (nationalism isn't limited to right-wing movements, it simply means "nation first") >Doesn't take public funding like over parties >Supports peace and wants better relations with Japan's neighbors
>"B-but Communism is authoritarianism!" The Japanese Communist Party is a democratic organisation. If they were to come to power they wouldn't have complete power over people's lives, they would simply focus on work place reforms as well as other changes (such as ending the US occupation of Japan). Essentially, the JCP is the purest form a Communism, a party that works for the people. youtu.be/viFJdDzZ9TA
What an compelling and thought provoking argument.
Isaiah Butler
Leave Japan. American imperialism has no place there.
Thomas Campbell
I think the average Nip would rather suffer the presence of US troops rather than become a destitute shithole. Marxism is retarded and doesn't work. Besides, there are other avenues to removing US troops other than going full retard.
Jeremiah Peterson
Death to China and the CCP. The middle kingdom is never coming back and another age of humiliation is coming.
There is hardly any point in arguing with you people, you see everything through a Marxist lens and are steeped in ideology. It didn't work, it's over. Fuck, even the Jews who first pioneered Marxism abandoned you people because it was such an absolute failure.
The US forced through negative changes on the Japanese economy through the Plaza Accords in the 80s. Japan was running a war time National Socialist command economy tuned to the consumer market in the postwar era. All the nonsense about the Japan "bubble" popping is just that -- it was engineered by agents inside the Bank of Japan to sideline the Ministry of Finance.
He didn't lol. The guy that assassinated him was most likely working for the CIA though, since America was heavily involved in Japan's politics back then.
Michael James
It wasn't left to its own devices, was it? It was attacked on all sides. The look at Japan is a very interesting one, especially when juxtaposed with the wind the USSR was sucking during the same time.
>JCP policies I just skimmed them right now, as I expected they did not have some magical new approach to marxism that fixes the inherent flaws, so i'm not sure what your point was here?
>w...we don't want a violent revolution, but a democratic one! Democracy is retarded, and when has this approach ever worked for you people?
>muh national sovereignty too bad that's fundamentally opposed to the goals of marxism and will be dropped the instant they gain power
>nuclear power bad lol that's fucking retarded, and also inherently anti-left. Nuclear power is the safest and cheapest source of power we have right now, to be against it is to tacitly support the international fossil fuel companies which are the posterboys for "le ebil capitalism".
It fails every time. The populace ends up in eternal suffering. There's no freedom, how do you live when somebody tells you what to do and feel every fucking second of the day? At least here, I can go up to my capitol and tell them to go fuck themselves and no die, as long as one is white. You can't do that in communism.
Nobody in Japan wants war or Nazism. To put it into perspective, the JCP is eventually the third largest party in Japan and the majority of Japanese protested Abe's pro war policies.
Daniel Garcia
because the entire world with a much larger population teamed up to destroy it. Strange...I thought fascism was just a capitalist plot? Why then did the capitalists team up with the Soviets to annihilate it I wonder?
It doesn’t matter how much you’d like to justify that communism is a democratic people’s movement, that may be at the core of the ideology but in practice it’s never the outcome. The brand of communism you’re trying to sell will most certainly come with authority, it’s almost arbitrarily what Marx says - in order to effectively have a society controlled by a working class that truly enjoys work for the benefit of the community and not for profit, it has to come with a period of dictatorship to ensure a shift into this mentality. I don’t recall a time where this has been successful, not to mention it’s goals are international and not national. Socialism within one state was the Stalin way, and that faggot was nuts
Hitler started the war. The main policy of Fascism is war. That's why it fails, you can't win war forever. To paraphrase Mussolini, "Italy should wage war every 25 years!" Look how well that went for them.
Isaiah Barnes
Nope.
Aiden Harris
Ok, commie.
Luis Lee
>nobody wants nazism They are already nationalist and largely homogeneous though, they don't *need* nazism so of course there aren't going to be people pushing for it at this juncture.
John Cook
>The US isn't a destitute shithole
Gabriel Morgan
How is Marxism fundamentally opposed to national sovereignty? A system that works for the people is the ultimate form of national sovereignty, unlike Capitalism which exploits the people to profit the (((bankers))). Also nuclear power is bad. There are plenty of alternatives.
John Cox
JCP is actually pretty alright especially after Kishi and shit like got rid of the radical retards. They mainly just content themselves to organizing on the local level, engaging in local issues and not going all in on crazy commie rhetoric.
Dominic Harris
Policies and political theories DO NOT MATTER you fucking clown. All that matters is results and communism by FAR has the worst results of any political ideology ever known. And what's really bad about it, is that it doesn't work ANYWHERE. Different races tolerate different political ideologies better than others, but communism is uniquely BAD wherever it goes.
Fuck off and die in a fucking fire you evil piece of shit.
>Hitler started the war No, Britain and France did. >the main policy of fascism is war No, it isn't.
Oliver Sullivan
You don't understand Communism.
Charles Rogers
Maybe because Fascism dragged the world into total war?
Jace Butler
When the Nips were going to go commie during the Cold War the Americans let the old fascist government out of prison and they cleaned that up right quick. Japan under a fascist government pretending to be a liberal one was such a success that Americans were scared that they would overtake our economy in the 80's. Fascism saved Japan and >thejewfearthesamurai.jpg
Levi James
Read the JCP's manifesto and get back to me.
Ethan Sanchez
No, I don't think you understand it.
Chase Cook
Shichisei Hōkoku! (七生報國; "Would that I had seven lives to give for my emperor!"). Fucking communists will never get it.
Jackson Campbell
This isn't accurate. Communism, to the extent you can get a communist to admit how real it was and how close they got to achieving it, clearly worked better in Russia and Bulgaria, etc., than it did in Angola and that's a direct result of the people.
Brody Turner
He came the closest to getting US forces out of Japan. That's why (((they))) bumped him off.
Justin Adams
Nope.
Hudson Turner
>Maybe because Fascism dragged the world into total war? HEADLINE: "Judaism declares war on Germany!"
Fuck off you piece of shit. You KNOW what you're trying to do and it's not going to work. Also, Taiwan #1
