Do you care about the real or imaginary political leanings of Japanese entertainers?

[DocumentaLy]

Such as Shiina Ringo supposedly being a right-winger, KOM_I of Suiyoubi no Campanella mourning the death of communist revolutionary Fidel Castro, or SPEED's Imai Eriko becoming a LDP politician.

Not really, only if their views are super problematic 

[davidguy]

nothing KOM_I does really makes much sense anyways

[denizen mars]

I'm a very casual fan so not particularly. If they do or say something particularly bad I'll probably avoid seeking out their music, I guess

 

we all gotta remember that celebs aren't where you should be getting information about ideologies or how to vote, cuz they don't tend to be the most educated or the most in touch with reality members of a population

they can be "right wing" if they want. just depends on what they actually think about the issues themselves.

[SeeYaWithYou]

I mean if they have fucked up views it def makes me not interested in checking them out as much. Especially if I don't come across their music naturally
