Under the banner of “liberalization,” Japan’s major media—led by Asahi Shimbun—promoted policies that enabled figures like Son Masayoshi to amass enormous fortunes while dismantling Japan’s once-proud middle-class society. In just two decades, this media-driven deception inflicted an estimated 1,400 trillion yen in losses on the nation, even as the perpetrators enriched themselves. This essay exposes that structural betrayal.

Japan and the Japanese people must now awaken.

In our country, it is no exaggeration to say that the most foolish institution of all—the mass media led by Asahi Shimbun—whenever it speaks the word “liberalization,” it is merely providing a pretext for people like Son Masayoshi to make enormous profits.

The “liberalization” they advocate is precisely the greatest device for generating inequality.

Even Japan’s so-called cultural figures, in a nation that has achieved the world’s highest level of freedom and intelligence, waste their time waving around kindergarten-level arguments portraying politicians as if they were machines designed to deprive people of their freedom.

All the while, the mass media led by Asahi continue to impose immense competitive gaps—namely, manufacturing cost gaps—upon Japan.

I have repeatedly written that Japan’s once world-renowned “general middle-class society” was not a myth, but a true and authentic reality.

Anyone who reads my theory of elites—anyone except a truly hopeless fool—should be able to understand this.

While Son Masayoshi amassed more than 500 billion yen in assets in a short span of time, he simultaneously shattered Japan’s general middle-class society.
Asahi, too, while praising such figures, continued to mislead the government, and in just twenty years inflicted a colossal loss of 1,400 trillion yen upon Japan by creating a rigid divide between the upper and lower classes.

Throughout this entire period, both parties continued to do nothing but swell their own pockets.

However, in August of last year, divine punishment finally descended upon Asahi.

In the true sense of the word, this company is already finished.
