Women “would have their uteruses removed when they turn over 30,” Naoki Hyakuta, leader of the Conservative Party of Japan, said in a stream on his YouTube channel on Friday.

On the channel, he also said that he would make it law for “women who are single after 25 years old not to be allowed to marry.”

(…)

Later, Hyakuta posted an apology on his X account. “I cannot deny that the expressions were too harsh,” he said. “I apologize for those who were offended.”

    A meaningful number of people globally want “revenge” on COVID. They are impotently raging along with the nearest angry person they can attach to. They don’t understand their feelings but they feel generally cheated. Many real issues layered on to, but that’s the motivating foundation.

    They also are failed adults that just want a “daddy” to feel like he will make things better or “beat up” problems on their behalf (or more likely just make them feel like that’s happening, regardless of reality).
