Japan’s new PM is a woman—and a Hitler admirer. She threatened TV networks that criticized PM Abe, opposes gender equality, and blamed foreigners for Covid. Hand-picked in a backroom deal by ex-PM Taro Aso, she’s basically Aso in a dress—an authoritarian xenophobe, not progress. bit.ly/4pW9GvP

Japan’s next PM, Sanae Takaichi, wasn’t chosen by us but by 370 LDP insiders & dues-paying loyalists—mostly old, rural, ultraconservative men. The LDP is neither liberal nor democratic, just a business. She’s a xenophobic sociopath who opposes gender equality

It’s a clueless article by a Japan apologist. Many in Japan who actually know what she stands for recognize her selection as a step backwards. She’s Taro Aso in a dress.
