20:38:47 @TasteyFlav@NHKWORLD_NewsI agree that the protests against Ospreys are mostly opportunistic jibes by anti-american far left, but fact is that the planes do have a terrible safety record and reality is Japan has no say in America’s deployment of them in Japan, which aggravates things
20:43:03 @nippon_enIn some fairness, the ban on women in ring isn’t pure sexism, it is a religious element of Sumo. Shinto is similar to folk religions in Asia and Polynesia. In NZ “Tapu and Noa” forces a similar concept. Also key to understand NO ONE takes shinto seriously as an actual religion
20:45:07 @nippon_enTelling women to get out of the ring was not pure sexism or representative of Japan. Searing criticism shows that quite the opposite is true. The fact however that the announcer said anything however has drawn derision and forced an apology from the Japan Sumo Association
