Chinese influencer sprays "toilet" on steele at Yasukuni War Crimes Shrine, records himself pissing on it, then flys back to China and gloats. Japanese far rightoids malding and seething, with a holocaust-denying plastic surgeon offering 10 million yen as a reward for his arrest.
It's also been reported on Westoid and Japanese media so you can search up an article if you want. Reason I'm linking to the tweet is that it has the video and all the English language news is incredibly biased (i.e. no mention of why a Chinese person might not like Yasukuni Shrine until the very last paragraph).
TBH most US military memorials are just as bad as this. Whenever I see someone thanking Vietnam or Korean war vets I think about how it's not really any better than thanking an nazi for their service in WW2.
It's a little different because at one point in the 70s it was deliberately decided to enshrine the souls of about a dozen class A war criminals. Closest comparison I can think of would be the US DOD consciously deciding at one point decades later to carve then names of the Mai Lai murderers and Abu Graib torturers onto a monument.

Törni died in a helicopter crash during the Vietnam War and he was promoted to the rank of major posthumously. His remains were located three decades later and then buried in Arlington National Cemetery; he is the only former member of the Waffen-SS known to be interred there.

Are we sure they haven't done that yet?
I’m supposed to have respect for a bunch of bitches who were too scared to stand up for justice and kill their commanders, but brave enough to massacre children and destroy a country. Fuck those soldiers. They deserve to be traumatized and depressed.
Ah really unfortunate how the 2.1 million military personnel just kinda up and died. I wonder what they doing at the time of their spontaneous demise.

If you go down the Twitter thread you can see a video of him saying "here's your 10 million yen, come and get it".
High level troll shit.
Represent. Fuck the right wing racist people in Japan. They all suck. Pissing and vandalism on that memorial to rape and murder was legit dope
Chinese memes are so far ahead. That's such a funny fucking thing to do a bit on
My favorite gender neutral toilet was and always will be Thatcher’s gravesite.
Black van speaker fascists gonna use this as a rallying point.
Let them. Fuck those fascists forever.
The black van types loving Yasukuni will never stop being funny to me because they want an Imperial restoration but Emperor Hirohito was reportedly so mad at the war criminals getting enshrined that he vowed to stop going and so has every subsequent Emperor.
I know, right? And Naruhito couldn't give a shit about them, he's lived abroad, isn't a hardcore nationalist wanting to restore the greater east prosperity sphere etc
