Japanese society values quietness and harmony, and people are used to not discussing issues loudly.
Recently, Japan is holding a House of Representatives election in a very short time, with only 16 days to prepare.
The new Prime Minister, Sanae Takaichi, is Japan's first female prime minister. She proposed tax cuts and economic reforms, but also made some worrying remarks, such as blaming economic problems on foreigners and China.
Many young people were previously uninterested in politics, but now on social media, some have started discussing politics with intense language and sometimes excluding foreigners.
Japanese schools rarely teach students how to openly discuss and think about political issues, so many people treat politics as entertainment, like imitating the prime minister's clothing or describing politicians as 'cute'.
There have also been recent reports that some political parties and religious groups have unclear financial relationships, but there is little discussion about this.
Currently, many people see the election as just something novel or troublesome, without seriously thinking about its true meaning.
The author feels this situation is worrying because people might ignore important issues and just follow others' decisions.
