The left-wing parties are misogynistic – and Japan’s old media continues to promote people who speak them. –

In the recent the Liberal Democratic Party(hereinafter called LDP) of Japan presidential election, Councilor Sanae Takaichi became the first female president of the LDP.

The old media kept manipulating public opinion by biased coverage that consistently  taiking a hostile stance toward Councillor Takaichi and claiming other candidate has overwhelming advanage.
(If children imitated this behavior, it would be bullying. It’s no exaggeration to say the old media is showing children how to bully.)
Does the old media still believe they can influence and manipulate public opinion ?

Many citizens are well aware of biased coverage by the old media and are actively gathering information themselves using social media.
This fact became clear from the recent Hyogo governor election.

This LDP presidential election was an unusual election, because not only the Komeito party which forms a coalition government with the LDP, but also within the LDP itself there are many anti-Sanae Takaichi Diet members, led by former Prime Minister Ishiba and former Prime Minister Kishida.
In fact, during the last LDP presidential election, Prime Minister Ishiba was elected through a Diet member vote, disregarding the will of many LDP members as if it were trash.
This disregard for party members’ will made us acutely aware once again that many Diet members from both ruling and opposition parties clearly prioritize “vested-interes over the people.”
Watching the Kishida and Ishiba administrations, I honestly can’t tell how they differ from the Constitutional Democratic Party(hereinafter called CDP) of Japan or the Japanese Communist Party (hereinafter called JCP) of Japan. Honestly, I even thought Prime Minister Ishiba’s defiant stance after a crushing election defeat might be because he planned to merge with the CDP.

October 4: LDP president election

First Round of Voting
As expected, Councilor Sanae Takaichi leads with the most support from many LDP members.
However, she did not reach a majority, so a runoff vote between the top two candidates will be held.
This process mirrors the previous presidential election. Once again, are party members’ opinions being disregarded ?
From the ideological standpoint of the Ishiba administration, not only the old media but even the new media predicted another candidate’s comeback.

Second Round of Voting
Defying many predictions, Councilor Sanae Takaichi won even in the Diet member vote. It was an overwhelming victory.
Perhaps they thought that if they disregarded party members’ opinions, they would lose their cooperation and support in the next election ?

At this moment, Japan’s first female LDP president was elected.

On the day of the LDP presidential election, it was even claimed the first female prime minister would be elected.
However, from this very moment, blatant and insidious attacks began from self-identified liberal leftists (the party).
As expected, the old media took statements out of context of  the words of the new president Sannae Takaichi, manipulating impressions through malicious reporting.

It’s ridiculous that self-identified liberals such as Social Democratic Party leader Mizuho Fukushima and Constitutional Democratic Party member Reiko Matsushita who constantly make it sound good like “Hire more females! This is misogyny!” and “Embrace diversity!”, as well as self-identified feminist leftists, keep making statements dividing females by saying “Only Takaiichi-san (becoming the first female Prime Minister) is absolutely unacceptable.”
We feel these statements are discriminatory and clearly misogynistic.
It has become clear that the leaders of national political parties and their members hold discriminatory and dictatorial ideologies to exclude people with differing way of thinking.
As expected, the old media has not criticized these statements at all. (They must agree with these discriminatory and dictatorial ideologies. )

The CDP is leading efforts to field a unified opposition candidate to prevent Sanae Takaichi of the LDP who declare to protect Japan from becoming first female Prime Minister.
Despite their completely different fundamental government policies, they requested discussions with Democratic Party For the People (hereinafter called DPP) and Japan Innovation Party (hereinafter called JIP) because they have a lot of  lawmakers. Furthermore, they also requested discussions with Reiwa Shinsengumi and the JCP.
How can a national government be run by parties with such disparate fundamental government policies and ideologies ?
In other words, given their recent statements and actions, it’s hardly surprising that their goal seems to be preventing the election of a female Prime Minister.

Let’s watch the prime minister nomination election on October 21.
The election of Japan’s first female Prime Minister will mark a turning point for this nation.
We are also interested in how the political party landscape will look at that time.
