recently the 2023 Japan Expo was held in France, and apparently a group of mentally retarded people were handing out these pamphlets outside the facility.
in this they waste their time while their country is rotting away
this is an approximate translation because, as you may understand, I do not speak French.
>This year, Ken Akamatsu will again be a guest of honor at Japan Expo. Many know him as the author of Love Hina! and Negima, but last year he became a member of parliament for the Liberal Democratic Party, "Japan's largest far-right organization," according to Wikipedia.
>He began his political career some ten years ago to protest against laws regulating child pornography in Japan, and this remains the main focus of his struggle. This has led him to criticize certain UN recommendations, painted as an outside influence attempting to censor Japanese culture. Fortunately, we know there are more interesting things in Japanese culture than child pornography! She has since aligned herself with the far-right and deeply anti-feminist ideas of the Liberal Democratic Party, and has become a star of this reactionary and dangerous party.
>Many of us grew up with Akamatsu's work and are attached to it. It's not a bad thing that we like Negima or Love Hina. However, we can't deny it. His status as an internationally recognized author gives him legitimacy in Japan, which he uses to propagate his reactionary ideas. Nor can we forget the complacency of a large part of the manga world towards child pornography, as shown by the wave of solidarity with Nobuhiro Watsuki, author of "Rurouni Kenshin", who was in possession of monstrous amounts of pornographic content involving minors.
>By inviting him back and helping him to be seen as this endearing author, Japan Expo is directly involved in giving him legitimacy, which he will use to push forward ideas from another time in Japan. It is a matter of solidarity with Japan, of solidarity with all the people whose rights are threatened by these extreme right-wing ideas. It's time to show that we are not taking advantage of their culture, to show that we will do what we can to help them defend themselves. And that means refusing to give importance to the people who endanger them on a daily basis.
>Refuse to attend events where Ken Akamatsu is present! Question him about his ideas. Question the Japan Expo staff - Ken, we don't want you!
