That’s what ignorance is all about. They cared more about the disenfranchisement of their own people than the direct consequences. Ageism is what they wanted, and fascism is what they are going to get.

Not even close to being true.
They have a lot of farmland, and a lot of pests, so there’s a huge number of people who have a legitimate need for a firearm. There’s also a pretty strong recreational shooting community.
I don’t know why people think you can’t have guns in Australia, but it’s just not true.
Japan was a real life experiment for censoring access to porn. Why do countries want to follow a bad example? Start buying spy camera finders and protect your private areas in trains
Generally developed countries do not censor or limit access to pornographic or adult material. Japan is pretty special case and a very good study in this regard, and they have quite a lot of creeps and creep porn, relatively speaking. People like to assume that banning nudity or violence from young minds is going to make humans grow up with less screwed up minds, but turns out the exact opposite thing happened. I remember my favourite childhood game being Postal 2. I’m fully against violence as a grown-up and it’s been 2 decades since I hit someone.
EDIT: Forgot to answer your question lol - Yes, Japan has one of the strictest rules on pornography amongst developed countries.
My argument is quite long and hard to describe since English is my third language and this is essentially science.
Long story short, during development of brains, humans develop things they are going to enjoy doing, getting, etc that are often related to what was going on in your life at the time. So if you limit your child from enjoying candies, brain can incidentally develop lust towards sweets. It is believed that limiting your children from masturbating and seeing boobies during puberty can really screw him up as an adult. Psychologically and neurologically, scarcity can lead to development of desire. Intimate desires to see someone naked to the point you act on them (almost all men dream about seeing someone naked, but actually acting on your desires is whole another level of wanting) are a common thing in Japan.
I genuinely don’t know if my Postal 2 is a valid example, but I played some really screwed up games in my young years (10-15), I was fully aware that these things are screwed up, I knew the difference between right and wrong, and I grew up with that idea while exploring the fucked up side of the world, including browsing 4chan at the age of 13. Good times. Still, grew up as a loving human who’s anti-violence and anti-everything-evil
We came up with non-existing problem (kids have never had real problems with seeing nudity. See:Africa. They’re either disinterested or capable of processing what is going on without getting brain-damaged), tried to solve it, and created a real problem during this process.

Strange that once you start having ways to make people identify themselves the government would expand it’s use! Who would have foreseen that?
Like some sort of incline that slants downward covered with lubricant.

Surprised Pikachu!

Which war is that exactly?
Huh? Australia has the world’s tightest gun laws.

It’s bizarre to see shitty softcore clickbait on the front page.
That looks exactly like YouTube

Ha-ha, the west would NEVER build trains you fool!
What did japan do?

I don’t quite understand your argument. Did Japan ban (censor?) access to porn and that didn’t stop people from being creeps, or what?

Would be nice if we had to give our consent to be advertised to.
