Deletion of Japanese Conceptions[edit]

I would like to see information on public opinion in this article, but the section I just deleted read like this.

With the advent of the internet becoming commonly accessible the US imposed stringent laws over internet use. Gone were the days when it was said no one owned the internet. In fact now the White house wants full control of the internet, especially since the Bush administration, and is pushing for under 18's to have only their faces shown in any genre of internet viewing. The Bushes themselves, in particular George H Bush, the senior first Bush president, has voiced his disdain for the internet itself. Many Japanese question the authority of the US over Japanese creativity in any form. The US government is the only world government that imposes its will over the internet. Naturally, it is being advanced that the Americanization of the world is being done through US empowerment over the internet.

The passage brims with POV and generalization issues. There are no sources for any of it, and personally I don't think it can be salvaged. --Estemi (talk) 18:53, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Despite the inherent difficulties in effectively enforcing a ban on such materials, on August 25, 2007 the Japanese branch of Amazon.com removed over 600 junior idol titles on grounds the likelihood these were produced in violation of the Japanese anti-child prostitution and pornography law was high.[4] This incident was then followed by the arrest—on October 16—of 34-year-old Jisei Arigane (有金慈青, Jisei Arigane?) chief producer of Shinkosha (新交社, Shinkosha?) (a company specialized in idol and pornographic materials, as well as a number of novels and technical texts) and three associates over the production of an "obscene" DVD shot earlier in 2007 in the Indonesian island of Bali, starring Yuki Yamagata (山形由希, Yuki Yamagata?), seventeen at the time. The prolonged filming of the girl's genitalia was in violation of Japanese law.[5] Following the incident, the release date of several photobooks and DVDs originally slated for publication in November 2007 was postponed and idol events cancelled." This sounds like focusing it towards a point of view against Japanese law and the sadness that idol events were canceled with the Shinkosha being arrested. I know may have happened but I think it could have been written better. I can also state it has been called underage porn with resources because some videos do show bare butt with and without thongs not to mention one pieces like Borat wore and total sexualization of a child(just see youtube). But I will not even touch the article just want this statement fixed.--Truthfulchat (talk) 17:01, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unlikely article[edit]

Many statements in this article seem to be what someone has written off the top of their heads. E.g. "is primarily defined as a child or early teenager pursuing a career as a photographic model (this includes both gravure and AV)." this sounds like total nonsense, made worse by the use of Japanese terms where English ones exist.

A Rebellious Nation

2 Hear me, you heavens! Listen, earth! For the LORD has spoken: “I reared children and brought them up, but they have rebelled against me. 3 The ox knows its master, the donkey its owner’s manger, but Israel does not know, my people do not understand.” 4 Woe to the sinful nation, a people whose guilt is great, a brood of evildoers, children given to corruption! They have forsaken the LORD; they have spurned the Holy One of Israel and turned their backs on him. 5 Why should you be beaten anymore? Why do you persist in rebellion? Your whole head is injured, your whole heart afflicted. 6 From the sole of your foot to the top of your head there is no soundness— only wounds and welts and open sores, not cleansed or bandaged or soothed with olive oil. 7 Your country is desolate, your cities burned with fire; your fields are being stripped by foreigners right before you, laid waste as when overthrown by strangers. 8 Daughter Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard, like a hut in a cucumber field, like a city under siege. 9 Unless the LORD Almighty had left us some survivors, we would have become like Sodom, we would have been like Gomorrah. 10 Hear the word of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom; listen to the instruction of our God, you people of Gomorrah! 11 “The multitude of your sacrifices— what are they to me?” says the LORD. “I have more than enough of burnt offerings, of rams and the fat of fattened animals; I have no pleasure in the blood of bulls and lambs and goats. 12 When you come to appear before me, who has asked this of you, this trampling of my courts? 13 Stop bringing meaningless offerings! Your incense is detestable to me. New Moons, Sabbaths and convocations— I cannot bear your worthless assemblies. 14 Your New Moon feasts and your appointed festivals I hate with all my being. They have become a burden to me; I am weary of bearing them. 15 When you spread out your hands in prayer, I hide my eyes from you; even when you offer many prayers, I am not listening. Your hands are full of blood! 16 Wash and make yourselves clean. Take your evil deeds out of my sight; stop doing wrong. 17 Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed.Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow. 18 “Come now, let us settle the matter,” says the LORD. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool. 19 If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good things of the land; 20 but if you resist and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword.” For the mouth of the LORD has spoken. 21 See how the faithful city has become a prostitute! She once was full of justice; righteousness used to dwell in her— but now murderers! 22 Your silver has become dross, your choice wine is diluted with water. 23 Your rulers are rebels, partners with thieves; they all love bribes and chase after gifts. They do not defend the cause of the fatherless; the widow’s case does not come before them. 24 Therefore the Lord, the LORD Almighty, the Mighty One of Israel, declares: “Ah! I will vent my wrath on my foes and avenge myself on my enemies. 25 I will turn my hand against you;I will thoroughly purge away your dross and remove all your impurities. 26 I will restore your leaders as in days of old, your rulers as at the beginning. Afterward you will be called the City of Righteousness, the Faithful City.” 27 Zion will be delivered with justice, her penitent ones with righteousness. 28 But rebels and sinners will both be broken, and those who forsake the LORD will perish. 29 “You will be ashamed because of the sacred oaks in which you have delighted; you will be disgraced because of the gardens that you have chosen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Totodile493 (talkcontribs) 19:12, 26 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
