        Right, sorry I didn’t explain that well. I just don’t see what the governments of occupied territories can really do. Ex: It seems like South Korea and Japan wants to do right by their population, but what we saw with the sudden change in Japan’s government last year was way more drastic than I think a lot of Comrades were paying attention to. Japan went from protesting Israel and making Israeli tourists sign non-involvement in wartime clauses. To just suddenly completely changing their non-aggression stance to suddenly send a shit ton of money to UKRAINE and say they’ll get militarily envolved with China, their greatest economic ally, while their elderly population is in dire need. Like Japan and South Korea were getting better. Then their occupiers say no.

        Like no fuck that. Down with the governments of Japan and SK. Okinawa, as well as every province within Japan and Korea desperately need self-governance. That’s what we, as communists, should be working towards. East-Asia proletariat revolution against the western occupation at it’s most instable time. Do it, guys. Let’s fucking go.

          Well, the governments (as instruments of class oppression) are most proximately the problem and I think talking about what they “can” do kind of lends itself to weird question begging since the governments are willful collaborators. I’m not particularly trying to blame the proletariat of these countries though, because there’s a lot of criticism you can make but ultimately things like SK presidents resigning in disgrace and Japan’s anti-zionist measures you list are surely mostly products of popular pushback rather than, for example, the national bourgeoisie of Japan deciding that they suddenly don’t like ethnostates (see Japan’s freedom of association laws) and colonialism (Hokkaido; Ryukyu) now.

          Anyway, we agree on the substance of the issue that these governments need to be overthrown and for America and the west no long hold special authority over them.

            Popular pushback is key. Fuck the national bourgeoisie, they live on borrowed time bought by selling their own proletariat. They are doomed to failure. The time of worldwide proletariat union seems more achievable now than ever.
