Japan’s governing party leader, Sanae Takaichi, is on track to become the country’s first female prime minister, after finding a badly needed replacement for a crucial partner that left her Liberal Democratic Party’s coalition.
I think a lot of Western media is owned by the ultra wealthy or are incompetent. The CDU is clearly, for my sake, analogous to Republicans in the US pre-trump. They serve corporate masters, their policies are not based in scientific knowledge aimed at improving the lives of their constituents, and they will continue to make most everything they touch worse slowly. The CDU will slowly lead the country into needing either a non-corporate serving left response or the far right who will offer false but powerful narratives about how their corporate serving conservative based policies will be totally different than the CDU’s.
It’s just… It’s predictable and sad. We need to strengthen our education systems, our media systems, and create better systems for getting local people involved in local issuesbl and making a difference because I think that’s a good booster against bullshit politicians.
