Japan's ruling party is in crisis as voters swing to right-wing rivals

I think the LDP has been in crisis for quite some time, and hasn’t recovered from the crisis. The fact of the matter is that voters are deeply unhappy with the corruption scandal, and the persistent inability to handle even basic issues like the cost of living increasing, energy price increasing, and the rice shortage.

Voter apathy is also greater with younger people, because as most of my friends have expressed, many feel overshadowed by older voters.

In other words, the crisis has been ongoing since the original corruption scandal broke, and the ineffective governance has reiterated this.

Not surprising after the recent severe rice shortage and there was a glut of news showing foreigners from a certain country selling hoarded bags of rice only to countrymen on social media

Everyone is so pissed at each other. Let have a World War. This time it will surely resolve all of the issues. If not, some subsequent Civil Wars will do the trick.
