2. Shameful.

3. shame on this poser!

4. Was he arrested?

5. Loser

6. The real shame is that this shrine that pays homage to war criminals even exists. These things are reasons why China and Korea will always be wary of any meaningful gestures from Japan.

7. This guy ran away to China before he could be arrested.

8. Chinese netiziens are commenting he did this in May and it’s June now so we should not dwell on the past and focus on the future, flipping the common narrative of the Right Wing Japanese group lol, kind of funny

9. +8880000 social credit score. They need to limit who can visit from china and invest in better security at tourist spots.

10. This guy is doing a great service in providing a practical solution for the overtourism situation in Japan, I see. /s

11. That’s definitely vandalism, but I think calling it “graffiti terrorism” is a bit of a hyperbole

12. The holiest of toilets haha

13. They made Jet Set Radio Future in real life?

14. As someone who doesn’t have a full grasp on the situation, could someone enlighten me on why this shrine is so controversial.

    I’ve heard people angry on both sides.

    Isn’t it just a regular war memorial to fallen soldiers?

15. Fucking based

16. CCP: “Good job. Here’s 1mil RMB for ya and a job at the government.”
