The new Japanese government marks a turning point in the ruling class’s agenda to reassert its imperialist interests militarily at the expense of the working class.

On Tuesday, Japan’s parliament installed Sanae Takaichi, the new leader of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), as prime minister. The elevation to power of this ultra-nationalist, pro-war figure comes with a new ruling coalition that is rapidly pushing establishment politics even further to the right.

    It says more about the average human being a CHUD (if not by their nature, their nurturing) than about women

    You’re right it doesn’t say anything at all about women, but it doesn’t say anything about the average human as being a chud either. All it says is that in liberal “democracies” the only individuals who are allowed to rule are the ones who will put the bourgeois class interests first. It doesn’t matter if the average human is a chud, a lib, a social democrat, or a commie - no one elected is getting that power if they aren’t sufficiently sycophants of capital.
