Q: Can you elaborate? A: The political leaders are putting effort only on legislation that would strengthen control of the public, such as the bill to penalize desecrating Japan's national flag, which went on to be approved on July seventeenth.

You could be branded under such a law as a spy serving the interests of the enemy if you criticized the government.

That would be a repeat of what things were like before and during the war.
