Thoughts on the Ishimaru Case
I recently heard the news that Ishimaru Shinji’s claim of being “threatened” by a city council member in Aki Takada was ruled against him by the Supreme Court. Honestly, I was quite shocked. The fact that his assertion was deemed false is a significant issue for the citizens. Moreover, because it was determined to be
part of his duties as mayor, the city is now responsible for paying damages, which is hard to believe. It’s frustrating to think that our taxes are being used in this way!
Citizens’ Expectations and Disappointment
Ishimaru was supposed to become mayor to improve our local community, yet it seems that his actions have created confusion instead. It’s puzzling to see him being praised on social media as a “reformist” or “smart leader.” It feels as if judgments are being made solely based on image, which is dangerous when there are no actual achievements to back it up. Personally, I believe that results and accomplishments should be prioritized when making judgments. In my opinion, politicians like Ishimaru, who appear impressive due to their communication skills and looks, need to be carefully evaluated on what they are truly doing. With the upcoming metropolitan assembly elections and the House of Councillors elections, it’s essential to closely examine the gap between their statements and actual results. I make it a point to investigate which candidates genuinely have a track record every election.
The Oddity of Supporters Around Him
Additionally, the fervent defense from Ishimaru’s supporters feels somewhat strange. While he stirs up attention on social media by using strong language to incite conflict, the reality of his losing a defamation case raises questions. When he mentions moving on to national politics, I can’t help but wonder if he is truly aware of the situation. Just because someone is articulate and presents themselves well does not mean they will be a trustworthy politician. I pay attention to my choice of words when I talk with friends, but I believe that without real achievements and accountability, such a reputation won’t last.
