The following is from Yoichi Shimada's serial column in the front matter of WiLL, a monthly magazine published on the 26th.
It is a must-read not only for the people of Japan but also for people around the world.

The Darkness Beyond the LGBTSelf-dealing Law
What will happen if the bill to promote LGBT understanding is passed?
The Japanese people at heart will be forced to fight a long, bitter, and perhaps semi-permanent battle to protect their children from LGBT ideological brainwashing, their women from perverts, and their businesses from anti-social forces (in plain words, Yakuza) due to the irresponsibility of the current political class.
The bipartisan draft stipulates in Article 11 (Article 10 in the LDP's revised draft) that "the national and local governments" shall take "necessary measures for the steady dissemination of knowledge," that "employers" shall provide "training and other necessary measures" for their employed workers, and that "schools" shall provide "education or enlightenment and other necessary measures" for their children. The law also stipulates that "schools" shall take "education or enlightenment and other necessary measures" for children.
It is the birth of a new public money self-dealing system, which is really easy to understand, much to the delight of LGBT activists, but really annoying to the general public.
On May 12, the LDP terminated deliberations at the LGBT Special Mission Committee amidst majority opposition. Later, at a general affairs meeting, they approved an amendment to the bipartisan agreement to change "discrimination must not be tolerated" to "unjustified discrimination must not be tolerated.
But it doesn't deserve the name of improvement.
Instead, it gives the impression that there is "legitimate discrimination" and will distort Japan's legal system and, by extension, the Japanese language itself.
In the long run, we must conclude that the bill is a further deterioration of Japan's legal system.
It is a bad example of how forcing a fundamentally wrong bill to live up to its potential can further muddy the waters.
The LGBT activist Self-dealing bill (as I call it) must be cleanly buried.
Some argue that we need laws to promote understanding to prevent bullying of sexual minority children.
It is a misguided argument.
If such behavior occurs, the adults and teachers around the students should strictly supervise them, as all forms of bullying are unacceptable.
It is a misguided prescription to educate the entire student body on LGBT ideology.
In Japan, movies, TV dramas, and manga abound that show an understanding of LGBT people.
Not a day goes by without a gay or transgender comedian or actress on a variety show.
If a specific LGBT ideology is repeatedly injected into students at an early age, when their sexuality is still immature and unstable, and if anyone feels uncomfortable, it is assumed that they are discriminated against and are "targets of instruction," it can confuse very normal children and even cause an unnecessary backlash.
The bill does not specify what constitutes discrimination.
It is a flaw that can be called an anomaly as an individual law.
As mentioned earlier, as long as it stipulates "necessary measures" and "necessary measures" directly related to self-dealing, the excuse that it is merely a law of principle cannot be accepted.
It must be said that there is an extremely high risk that the interpretation of discrimination will be arbitrarily expanded and misused by far-left activists and deviants, and anti-social groups.
Even the controversial LGBT Discrimination Bill in the United States (submitted by the Democratic Party, called the Equality Act, which is unlikely to be enacted due to opposition from the Republican Party) appears to be making efforts to list the specifics of discrimination.
The sloppiness of Japan's bill is truly disgusting.
＊It is evident in the list of female legislators who have pushed for the bill.
The reality is that not one of them can draft and submit a proper bill.
In other words, no one deserves to be a Diet member like Ms. Sanae Takaichi or truly has the qualities to become a Diet member.
All of them are just people affected by "Left-Wing" Communism: An Infantile Disorder, leftist activists, pseudo-moralists, and anti-Japanese activists.
These people are incited or sympathized with by the Asahi, Mainichi, and Tokyo newspapers, as well as by NHK and other TV broadcasters.
At a time when the Internet and social networking services were not as popular as they are today, anti-Japanese activists in Japan have created a self-dealing system to siphon off public funds from leftist activists, such as the Buraku bill, the Ainu bill, the anti-hate bill, and the gender equality bill.
However, as this column has been saying day after day, the majority of the Japanese people, 95% of whom are not exaggerating, will clearly reject Kishida, the lowlife politicians, and the mass media and will stop the LGBT bill.
However, regarding the LGBT bill this time, as this column has been saying for days, it is no exaggeration to say that 95% of the people are opposed to it.
No to the foolish and incompetent politicians, including Kishida and the silly mass media! ＊
Another outrageous aspect of the LGBT bill is the attempt to pass a "bipartisan consensus bill" in one fell swoop without a question-and-answer session, taking advantage of the House rule that "accounts with unanimous support from all parties can skip the debate."
The LGBT caucus, which put together the consensus, includes Tomomi Inada (LDP), Chinami Nishimura (CDP), Mizuho Fukushima (SDP), Kiyomi Tsujimoto (CDP), and Tomoko Tamura (JCP) as its core members.
Am I the only one who feels this is an admirably one-sided group?
Suppose the goal is really to improve understanding. In that case, the bill should be made public at an early stage, the legislators should discuss it in front of the public, public hearings should be held inviting relevant people and experts, and the questions and concerns raised by the public should be resolved one by one.
This process would be an act of "promoting understanding" in the legislature.
Naturally, there must also be provisions to prevent abuse and misuse.
It is also essential to thoroughly discuss what exactly "discrimination" in this bill means and what it does not mean.
Since the bill is a Diet bill, its proponents, including Tomomi Inada and Chinami Nishimura, must sit at the defense table, answer detailed questions, and record their exchange results in the minutes.
The fact that all such procedures were abandoned and the legislation was enacted only through secret collaboration proves that the bill's primary purpose was not to promote understanding but to acquire self-dealing public funds.
It is not the behavior of a parliamentarian from a developed country.
