demography is a problem in todays day and age, japan is a small island, and it is over populated, it just is a correction

the dude probably just was against the American military base that is being built

their government also said they'd ignore the result of a referendum vote, wich emphasis the idea that japan is no longer a sovereign country and instead is an American vassal that's getting used in preparation of the great pacific war

that dude was a military guy, he wasn't a trader
