The following is from Masayuki Takayama's book "Newspapers Lie Like Bigots," published on 12/15/2022.
This paper also proves that he is the one and only journalist in the postwar world.
A long time ago, an elderly female professor of the Royal Ballet School of Monaco, highly respected by prima ballerinas worldwide, visited Japan.
At that time, she spoke about the significance of an artist's existence.
She said, "Artists are important because they are the only ones who can shed light on hidden, concealed truths and express them."
No one would dispute her words.
It is no exaggeration to say that Masayuki Takayama is not only the one and only journalist in the postwar world but also the one and only artist in the postwar world.
On the other hand, Ōe, I don't want to speak ill of the deceased, but (to follow Masayuki Takayama's example below), Murakami and many others who call themselves writers or think of themselves as artists are not even worthy of the name of artists.
They have only expressed the lies the Asahi Shimbun and others created rather than shedding light on hidden truths and telling them.
Their existence is not limited to Japan but is the same in other countries worldwide.
In other words, there are only a few true artists.
This paper is another excellent proof that I am right when I say that no one in the world today deserves the Nobel Prize in Literature more than Masayuki Takayama.
It is a must-read not only for the people of Japan but for people all over the world.
That's why I can't stop reading the Asahi.
When I say, "I'm reading the Asahi Shimbun,'' most people frown or look confused about how to cover their heads.
When I explain that it's okay and that I only read the paper because I have to for work, they are relieved to hear that I am decent.
In fact, that newspaper is unwholesome.
It is somewhat fraudulent and subliminally distorts people's memories.
For example, a "photo archive" from a while ago showed a picture of a smoggy Tokyo city center from half a century ago.
It is not as bad as Beijing today, but there was undoubtedly a time when it was like that.
Below it was a picture of the same Ginza area with a clear sky, and the illustration says that Ryokichi Minobe won the Tokyo gubernatorial election by saying, "Tokyo should have a blue sky."
It reads as if Minobe was responsible for bringing back the blue sky.
Minobe stopped urban planning by saying foolishly, "If even one person opposes, we will not build a bridge."
He got in bed with a female secretary and clogged up Loop Road No. 7 and Loop Road No. 8, which only made the smog thicker.
He was incompetent and had no plans, but his sexual capacity was a full-fledged man.
Shintaro Ishihara's exhaust gas control brought blue skies back to Tokyo.
Fuji can now be seen from Tokyo.
Asahi replaces someone else's achievements with the incompetent governor's credit.
It is an evil article.
In addition to such cunning, something is unsettling about this newspaper article.
I finally understood what it was when I read the column "Thoughts on Sunday" written by Toshihiro Yamanaka, a "Powerful Person" editorial board member.
A jet airliner of the Chinese brand appeared before the Mitsubishi MRJ launched by Japan.
The column says, "China has kidnapped the Shinkansen order in Indonesia. We are worried that we will lose again in the sky.
However, he was "strangely reassured" when he heard from an expert that "Japan is competing with Canada.
Because "It is comfortable for us Japanese to follow the Western countries," he says.
Putting aside the fact that the sentence's meaning is difficult to understand, the article is imbued with a thorough worship of white people.
It is another hidden characteristic of Asahi.
For example, the editorial condemns the Supreme Court's ruling that same-sex marriage is constitutional, saying, "No other country in the world requires married couples to adopt the same surname by law.
The editorial goes on to say, "Follow the example of the white nations."
The Asahi talks about constitutional protection.
The basis for this is that it was created by a white man, MacArthur.
The contents of the Constitution are "awe-inspiring and identical to the principles of the U.S. Constitution," according to Yasuo Hasebe, a professor at Waseda University.
The same stance applies to the "Monju" fast-breeder reactor.
If successful, Monju will "secure enough energy to last 2,500 years" (Tadashi Narabayashi, professor at Hokkaido University).
This reactor will also be able to dispose of nuclear waste, which the world is having trouble disposing of.
However, Asahi says, "Germany and France have given up on development," so "Japan should stop too.
Why should the Japanese continue to do what the white man could not do?
It is the source of the discomfort.
The Japanese do not have a shred of such white man worship.
To put it simply, it is quartz.
When energized, a quartz crystal vibrates precisely.
It was the perfect characteristic for clocks.
Europe and the U.S. competed with each other, but they could not make a watch smaller than a chest of drawers.
Seikosha did not give up and succeeded in making it small enough to fit in a wristwatch.
Seikosha opened its patent to the world, and white people no longer had to walk around with chests on their backs.
Diesel engines were larger than chests and could only be placed on ships.
So Germany and other white countries competed to reduce the size of the diesel engine.
When everyone gave up, Magokichi Yamaoka of Yanmar succeeded on December 22, 1933, in reducing the size of the diesel engine to the point where it could be mounted on a tiller.
Coincidentally, this was the day His Majesty the Emperor was born.
This technology was also transmitted from Japan to the world.
Germany put it in their cars.
In addition, they also installed software to cheat emission inspections using their own technology.
That was about all the white man could do.
In fact, breeder reactor research is no different.
France has now resumed research based on the know-how that Japan accumulated while being hindered by the Nuclear Regulation Authority ("Shukan Shincho," January 28, 2016).
The U.S. and U.K. are waiting to follow suit and restart "Monju."
The Japanese are not in the "position of pressing the white man's back.
Instead, we are in a position to teach them everything from democracy to etiquette.
You should be ashamed of your "Sunday Thoughts."
It would be best if you people slept in on Sundays.
