(1) The LDP was too incompetent to know of its existence.
(2) Shinzo Abe, an incompetent man of low character who hates the DPJ and liberals, did not want to use the system originated by the DPJ and ignored it out of mere personal selfishness, creating a useless system (=Abe + LDP) that was even worse than the one developed by the DPJ over 7 years after the DPJ started developing it. The LDP massacred the infected people.

> The issue this time is the plan by Prime Minister #ShinzoAbe to alter a key provision of Japan’s peace constitution to allow Japan’s “Self Defense Forces” to take part in overseas military operations for the first time since World War II... who is this prime minister who has won the trust of the #ObamaAdministration while earning the enmity of the growing majority of its own citizens?

> ... the narrative around Abe’s legacy put forth in the media following the assassination overshadows just how unpopular Abe was with the public in his final years. Despite becoming the longest-serving prime minister in Japan’s history, his administration was mired in multiple corruption scandals and alleged cover-ups, which led his approval ratings to drop to an all-time low.

"It wasn’t misinformation that drove Tetsuya Yamagami round the bend; it was accurate information that had been informally suppressed"

The LDP and #ShinzoAbe in particular had apparently done favours for the #Moonies .

Say what you will about Japan (and there's a lot to say), the way the public, media, and (eventually) govt responded to the motive behind Shinzo Abe's assassination was on point.

Like, no matter how evil a dead politician was, I don't think you'd ever get that kind of response in the US.

When #ShinzoAbe ex-PM of Japan was murdered, I discovered #Hikikomori character reading an article by Roland Kelts at The New York Times

This social profile emerged in 90s with sunset of economic model in #Japan: from working all life in same corporation and raising a family to short-time jobs probably with no profits at all and no marriages and births.
Parents and children faced different societies and economies and are possibly destined to never understand each other.

@cultexpert I'm glad you escaped!❤️ Though tragic and unfortunate... full stop... the assassination of former Japanese prime minister #ShinzoAbe has also led to scrutiny of other #cults in #Japan in addition to #UnificationChurch. This thankfully includes the one #IGotOut of in 1987. #exJW #JapanNews
