Sometimes it makes sense if the protestors are trying to reach an international audience for whatever reason. The 2011 protests in Egypt come to mind since they wanted the West and the US in particular to drop their support for Mubarak. But yeah, it's absolutely manufactured in this case. It's about pushing an agenda here rather than giving a shit about people in Japan.
Japanese mask wearing is a bit different to other parts of the world. They've been doing it for years and only because it was more convenient than using scarves. A lot of Japanese people take public transportation which results in them being packed into trains like sardines and the Japanese work ethic means that taking a day off isn't something that really happens. So, it's really just to avoid hocking a loogie on the back of someone's head. There's also hay fever being much more common in Japan and the culture of politeness means you don't want to sneeze on someone.
There's also a cultural taboo regarding snot. There's a Japanese term for it that translates as "nose shit." Being caught with an uncovered runny nose would be really embarrassing for a Japanese person.
i always find it funny when these type of protests are in countries that dont speak much English , yet have English protest signs there . How strange.
No foreign interference at all. Nope. Totally organic. * sarcasm*

Its either a psyop or a bunch of foreigners trying to force degeneracy upon the Japanese.
Theyre all wearing masks and some of them look a bit... African.
