Japan keeps looking to pick fights it would end up getting slapped around in.

Technically they can mobilize and say they are defending occupied territory. Doing that though would lead to Russia bombing the island and likely hitting American airbases so ww3 with China on the side of Russia because Super Japan is anathema to them.

I don’t want to play into the sneaky Japanese stereotype

but

😬

This is just geopolitics, the bourgeois ruling class in Japan, seeing Russia politically isolated and its armed forces otherwise occupied, have found a way to take advantage and cut themselves a slice of the pie.

Any competent bourgeois ruling class would do this.

There’s really really really no need to say that you think them doing so validates a negative ratial stereotype of Japanese people.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
