I had already mentioned that I stopped subscribing to the Asahi Shimbun, Weekly Asahi, and Aera, which I had subscribed to for many years, after Tadakazu Kimura's press conference in 2014 when the reality of the Asahi Shimbun became clear.
Since then, I have not read the Asahi Shimbun at all, if I may say so.
The following is from an article by Nobuhiko Sakai, a former professor at the University of Tokyo, entitled "Asahi Shimbun irritated by Tokyo Olympics," which appears in a unique feature in the current issue of the monthly magazine Sound Argument.
Nobuhiko Sakai has nothing to do with the masochistic view of history or leftist pedophilia.
However, most of the people who appear on Asahi and NHK with the title of professor at the University of Tokyo have a masochistic view of history and are probably leftist pedophiles.
The fact that people like Nobuhiko Sakai are so rare proves this. It's disgusting.
Every sane Japanese citizen who reads the following article should think so.
In 2014, the failure of the Japanese people to not only shut down the Asahi Shimbun and force them to sell all of their assets and compensate the Japanese nation and people for the astronomical damage they have caused was a disaster for Japan and the Japanese people.
We have allowed the Asahi Shimbun to continue to publish such vicious and terrible editorials about the Tokyo Olympics.
The CDP and the Communist Party, which are sympathetic to and use the Asahi Shimbun, are out of the question. Still, the populist politicians in the ruling party are incapable of overcoming even this viciousness.
A genuine politician can crush such vile viciousness with a single word (more on this later).
According to this article, the Asahi Shimbun will raise its monthly subscription fee from 4,037 yen to 4,400 yen.
The monthly magazines I mention, WiLL and Hanada, full of genuine articles by genuine thinkers from various fields and walks of life that prove that the turntable of civilization is turning in Japan, cost ¥950 and Sound Argument costs ¥900.
In other words, subscribers of the Asahi Shimbun are forced to pay 4,400 yen per month to read, instead of genuine articles, vile and vicious editorials by the masochistic view of history and leftist pedophiles (all of which are essentially fake news to realize their gross claims) that are designed to demean the Japanese nation and attack the Japanese government to please China and South Korea.
On the other hand, subscribers to the three monthly magazines mentioned above can, for a total of 2,800 yen per month, subscribe to many genuine articles that they will never read in the Asahi Shimbun the following.
A lengthy editorial in the Asahi Shimbun on May 26 caused quite a stir.
The reason is that the editorial title, "Asahi asks prime minister to decide to cancel summer Olympics in Tokyo," clearly stated that the Olympics should be canceled.
The editorial began as follows.
The spread of the new coronavirus has not stopped, and it will inevitably extend emergency declaration reissued to Tokyo and other cities. I don't think it makes sense to hold the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Tokyo this summer. The distrust and opposition toward the government, the metropolitan government, and the people involved in the Olympics will only grow as they push forward without addressing the natural questions and concerns of the people. I call on Prime Minister Suga to calmly and objectively assess the situation and decide to cancel the Olympics this summer.
The basis of this editorial is the health hazards of the corona.
"The first thing to fear, of course, is the threat to health." "We are far from a situation where anyone can be sure of safety and security. Unfortunately, this is the reality.
He then brings up the Olympic Charter, pointing out that it has become a hollow text and that doubts about the significance of the Olympics are deepening.
However, the public has no interest in the Olympic Charter, to be sure.
The media itself, including the Asahi Shimbun, must be thinking only of using sports for its own business.
We can only laugh when they bring up such a lofty subject as the Olympic Charter.
The Asahi Shimbun has been questioning the holding of the Olympics for a long time now. In its editorial of May 12, two weeks before May 26, the Asahi Shimbun expanded on this question quite violently.
The editorial's title was "Whether the Olympics should be held or not, the breakdown is apparent.
It is a thorough bashing of Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga's answer at the Diet.
First of all, the article begins, "I wonder how many people were convinced after listening to his answer. What we have learned is the grim fact that we are not in a position to hold the conference without delay.
He continued, "The day before yesterday, the question of whether or not to hold the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics became a significant point of discussion in the Budget Committee of both houses of the Diet. However, Prime Minister Suga repeatedly said that the organizers are the 10C (International Olympic Committee), IPC (International Paralympic Committee), Tokyo Metropolitan Government, and the Games Organizing Committee.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government and the Tokyo Paralympic Organizing Committee," he said. His refusal or inability to answer the questions raised further doubts about the event. It is an administration that has promised to control the infection and has failed each time. We want to know the prime minister's beliefs and desires but the measures and paths to achieve them, and he has been unable to fulfill his accountability. The editorial concludes with the following statement.
The editorial concludes and ends with the words, "The 'must hold' stance has led to mistrust and failure everywhere.
Compared to May 26, the editorial of May 12 shows the discursive nature of Asahi more clearly.
Compared to the May 26 editorial, which is long but lacking in substance, this editorial is much sharper.
However, it is a highly slanderous and abusive speech against the prime minister of a country. It can even be called hate speech, which is entirely different from a sound critical spirit.
