If this was just one or two idiots doing this, I might have passed it off as just idiots. But we're now at our 6th or 7th time that my pattern recognition is kicking in...
Another streamer this time YouTube getting in trouble with Japanese authorities for essentially promoting fare dodging on trains and then issuing a weak ass apology after.
This is happening WAY TOO often with streamers of all people where they are live broadcasting their harassment and even crimes. There is definitely encouragement to do this in Japan but I can't work out if its just idiots going 'I can get attention by being a prick in Japan' or if there's someone higher up directing these idiots there as a way to attack Japanese social cohesion.
Oh, and the biggest idiot of them all, update on him he's getting FUCKED by the authorities there, they are holding him for the maximum detention time then applying new charges to hold him longer. He's getting deported but HE has to pay for his own deportation otherwise he is held at the detention centre till he gets the funds and may be sent to a prison work camp to pay off the debt he owes in compensation for his harassment.
I don't blame you at all given how often psyops are a thing in this day and age. Now it could be just dickheads being dickheads because the internet is so widespread these days unfortunately. If we see loads of them doing it then we know we've got a real problem on our hands.
However yes, it could also be an attempt to make Japan look 'intolerant' of foreigners by acting as obnoxious as possible and then preaching to their audiences how bad Japan is when they finally get dealt with. Now I've done my own research into Japan and had been toying with the idea of definitely staying long term in Japan for fun for awhile or something on a holiday.
Will probably still attempt it at some point just because it's such an interesting country. However watching AbroadInJapan definitely slapped the weeb out of me when it came to the rampant collectivism and every day shit you have to deal with in Japan in certain instances because Chris Broad is very honest with all that stuff. This though? Yeah, their behaviour is definitely suspicious given how we've seen WEF agents essentially trying very hard to infiltrate Japan and spread influence.
