Sekai Nippo

He's a cult member named Azuma Murakami, and he's the kind of linchpin to the story.

He was working for the group's newspaper, Sekai Nippo, in Japan.

While working there, he became fascinated and frustrated by this kind of, like, corded digital device that was used for photo typesetting it was like a kind of stylus thing but it had a big cord on the end and he was using it to try and you know do stuff with photos for the newspaper and after growing just out of his mind frustrated with this he was like you know what fuck it i'm just gonna make it myself so he built a cordless stylus that would be used to edit photos

it's so funny to me he was like listen guys i know we're trying to do this whole world unification shit and like taking down communism and bringing god to earth and reunifying north and south korea but like I got to solve this tablet problem.

Like this, this is, this is bad.

I mean, I think it's pretty obvious to put two and two together and be like, oh, yeah, like people running a cult, probably not the best ones to entrust with your business.

And it's honestly kind of surprising that he felt like he had to do that.

Not really in terms of the money aspect, but just in terms of that they had a newspaper, they had political organizations, they had multiple silos of the church.
