Crazy Speech in Race For Tokyo Governor

Kouichi Toyama is an extreme left-wing activist (so said the official introduction, although he calls himself a fascist) who was among the ten candidates for the governor of Tokyo, and gave a way-wacky speech.

A bit of background here:

And some notes on the election results (he got 15,059 votes, or 0.27%):

why nobody listen and replying my comment? learn about japan from my profile and commenting very much please! I am represent japan 99% population. Japan people is thinks like me and acting like me in the house but outside when foreigner see us, we acting like polite and normal. i proud of japan culture, it's not fake because we most honest people in the world! japan sex culture number 1, japan political number 1! japan food sometimes fish rotten but still number 1! korea and china is sucks!

Other than the fact that the video is over a year old, the reason nobody is replying to your previous post is that you sound like a somewhat ignorant anti-Korean activist, and while I won't disagree that Japan has plenty it needs to improve on, if you think your views represent those of 99% of Japanese I'll upgrade that from somewhat to very.

[IamJapanIchiban]

I consider your perspective very deeply. But I am not ignorant anti-Korean activist! Korea is first anti-Japan! I know so many Korea sub-Asian dog that want to destroy the Japan empire. But they dishonest! Every Korean dog on youtube say "I not anti-Japan" but they are, you must know this. 99.999% of Korean dog slave is anti-Japan. They make accuse to Japan for war crime in WW2? that is crazy. Why we must apologize for nothing we do. Look at Korean people what they eating! Kimchi is slave food!

[Mako115]

I have no interest in a flame war so this is all I'll say: I don't believe I've *ever* seen a rebuttal that so effectively made the point of the other side. Wow.

Also, for the record, kimchi is quite tasty if you've ever had it--me and my Japanese wife eat it occasionally, along with the fine regional cuisine of a number of other Asian countries.

@Mako115 Well she's not really Japanese if she's not actually Japanese in Japan. Also, he's right. Koreans are horrible horrible animals, they're actually from south east Asia, and they act like they're so great.

[Mako115]

@JSona100 Boy this video keeps drawing random racist comments even three years later. I'm impressed.

Your comment is particularly amusing in its ignorance since the Yaoi branch of the modern Japanese ethnic is probably closest to Koreans in origin than anywhere else in Asia, and the Jomon portion of course came from Southeast Asia. There's a reason Koreans look more like Japanese than natives of any other Asian country.

Also, it's irrelevant, but "she" is in Japan right now, so yes, Japanese.

Only the stupids and political blinds can't understand what Toyama san talk about. The politician are corrupted; the japanese culture is eated for america culture. The good Japanese peaple are not popet, are strong. Some peaple call Toyama Nazi, but all World think the same about the international politics. I'm not Japanese, but in my country we are tired too.

[redmeatheart]

They tell us we live in a free society, yet they lock this guy up for 2 years for stating his opinion. They send soldiers to afghanistan to be killed for the banner of freedom, They put ccv tv cameras every 5 yards for your own protection, gordan browns even trying to put microphones in lampposts, wait for it TO STOP TERRORISM !!! really it's never for your protection, and people still say 1984 is a work of fiction.When are people going to wake up and decide they arent going to take it anymore

@ayraon

Yeah overthrow the government and destroy the country Third World boy. That solves problems as chaos ensues and warlords will rise to carve the country into several different independent parts among other things. You are not stupid and you are not blind.

[PapaBone69]

@IamJapanIchiban You insane racist arsehole.

[Gautigoth]

@ZEEMADMAN You say you want to kill millions of Japanese? You're American too! No one is surprised. You love to kill people anywhere. If I get him right his speech is about you. The majority of Japan (America) has to be destroyed so he asks the minority of Japan (the Japanese) to vote for him. There are other videos that explains more of his ideas. If he was just a lunatic he wouldn't have got so many votes.

[vaguelyhumanoid]

What would you call this? Insurrectionary anarchism? Situationism? Nihilism?

Whatever it is, it's pretty fuckin' amazing.

[ZEEMADMAN]

Well You said You wanted to Destroy Japan &Scrap it all. Now with any luck Your Dream is about to come true. Is there anything at all we can do to help things along now? How about we bomb a few of the Reactors that are still intact. If we can get those to start leaking out a lot of Radiation that should help things along quite nicely. One melts & gets another one started & so on & so on. A Daisy Chain of Nuclear Death. It should make Hiroshima & Nagasaki look like Childs Play. Millions will Die!

[ojalaqueque]

He is quite right at some points. I would actually vote him

[vongangster]

@mulattoraver

Like you I watched this video some years ago (I think) and there's a huge difference. The first time I mostly found it funny. His bald head, they way he talked and the things said made me laugh. I laughed because I didn't understand. Even now it's still kinda comical - one "crazy" guy ranting about everything broken about Japan (most of the Western world tbh). It's cool how he's doing it in a jokey way but he's also deadly serious. Now I slightly understand what he's talking about.

[SeventhSun]

If I as majority guy could do a speech defending the rights of the left-out minorities I would do it.

[JSona100]

@Mako115 Yaoi is gay.
