New Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba dissolved the lower house of parliament Wednesday to set up an Oct. 27 snap election, asking people to trust the governing party’s policies even as critics said the vote comes far too soon.
Next thing you know, the left wing party will get plurality of the votes, but tge President will give the right wing pro corporation party to form the government.
Something I stumbled upon while reading about this party:
From the 1950s to the early 1970s, the United States Central Intelligence Agency spent millions of dollars to aid the LDP against leftist parties such as the Socialists and the Communists, although this was not revealed until the mid-1990s when it was exposed by The New York Times. Details remain classified, while available documents show connections to prime ministers Nobusuke Kishi and Eisaku Satō from the Satō–Kishi–Abe family.

God damn, I wish my government was a bit better at minding its own fucking business. It’s like political climate change. We fucked around with all these other governments and now the world has to suffer the consequences.
The more I read into some parts of the 20th century history the more instances I find. Most conspiracy theories are bullshit, but the footprints of anti-left interference are plenty.
Meanwhile in Russia, Putin has ordered the parliament dissolved…in acid.
