I'm so done with how Japan's political system just swept this under the rug

. Like, you can't just say "oh look, a cult" and leave it at that

. The Unification Church has been manipulating people for decades, preying on post-war anxieties and exploiting colonial past trauma... it's disgusting

.
And Abe's family being tied to the church is no surprise

. I mean, who doesn't know about the whole "political protection in exchange for anti-left-wing organizing" deal

? It's like, basic corporate corruption but with a religious twist

.
The fact that nearly half of the ruling party has ties to the church is just wild

. And now Yamagami's trial is exposing all these dark connections... I'm still waiting for some real accountability

. It's gonna be interesting to see what happens in January 2026, but I'm not holding my breath

. Japan's gotta do better than this
