Fundamentally, my point is that Japan should be spending a ton of money more on a proper military, carriers and all, because the US will not be willing to defend them from China, as China is dictating American policy. The more inflation that these governments go into, and the more money that isn't spent on defending themselves from China, the more China is able to force-project onto them.
I've said it before, at the moment, it no longer matters whether or not the American military is capable of defending it's allies; it has no intention of defending them.
Japan is in a much worse monetary position than pretty much anyone else on the planet other than Sri Lanka or Turkey. That is an expensive virtue signal.
Japan shares a border with Russia and they have a territorial dispute over several islands. Russia also joined up with China for a 'maritime' military exercise near Japan. A weakened Russia is to their advantage.
Also, they're pretty pissed off over the increased hydro-carbon prices.
You are right. Since that aide to the PM made those LGBT comments, the government has been genuflecting to globohomo organizations and is laying the groundwork for gay marriage. It's startling how quickly it all accelerated.
Why don't you just spend 5.5 billion on your own military?
Oh, yeah, that's right. China might have a problem with that. They are the primary winners of this war.
I don't know why this would be downvoted, but Japan does spend a lot more than that on military/SDF.

Japan's government has proven itself to be full of worthless cucks lately. Japan is finished. Hopefully China takes them out soon.
My biggest enemy is the western governments, led by the USA, Israel and the EU. A strong China helps to destabilize my greatest enemy.
China was recently declaring that Afghanistan needs to give women more rights.
Afghanistan is definitely more based than China.
I'm pretty sure that was just China rubbing the west's nose in the pile of shit we left there.
Ok dude.
Straight gulag is better than gay gulag I guess

Japan already has economic problems and he does this? does he have a gun pointed at his head or something?
Well, they killed Abe, you see.
Just...why?
Japan is technically still at war with Russia
