When I thought about what I could do right now to make the biggest impact, I felt like I should [do TikTok.
Today eye exam.
A sense under the skin that increasing the number of contact channels is futile.

nishio I tried Election.com's vote matching! It's interesting to see the tally of everyone's matching results, since users don't directly enter their party, so it's a coverage of the distribution of user opinion. Maybe the 11% for Team Mirai is due to its recent addition, so I'll take another look after some time.
nishio If you want to try it, click here.
nishio Yes, the vote matching question item still doesn't match my interests. I wanted something like "Japan should grow through aggressive technological investment" in the question item. I hope that by the next election we will be able to better determine "what are the appropriate questions".
marblelife_blue: to be honest, the closest party to my idea is not Team Mirai, even if you try election.com or something like that But I want to support Team Mirai because I want to support their attitude of trying to change society through proper "discussion" and system operation, rather than "something close to my current ideology".
nishio Roughly "seats x 100 million yen" will be distributed from everyone's taxes as a political party subsidy, so it's like crowdfunding: "If you achieve these seats, you can do this! !" I wish they would say, "If you win this seat, you can do this! There are too many parties that don't know what they are going to do with everyone's tax money.
chokudai: I've always wondered about the manifestos that political parties put out, basically what they can do should depend on the number of seats they win, so I'm not sure why every party only puts out one. Isn't it correct to say, "If we win 0 seats, we will accomplish this," or "If we win x seats, we will accomplish that." Otherwise, doesn't it make sense? nishio Well, as far as existing political parties are concerned, "how they actually spent their party grants" is disclosed, so I guess we just need to visualize that more clearly.
nishio Is it better to summarize on a party-by-party basis or on an individual basis? There are too many individual politicians, so I still think it would be better to organize them roughly into political parties. nishio nippon.com with a report on how much each political party receives in party grants. Political Party Grants for 2025: LDP to receive 13.6 billion yen, a decrease of 2 billion yen, and 9 parties to receive a total of over 31.5 billion yen. On April 1, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) determined the amount of party subsidy allocation for 2025.
katap_yutori Something of a crossroads in Japan. I have a feeling it will be here before we know it.
7/20 House of Councillors Election "This is the first time" kind of thing. There's no shame in it, let's all go! (I've never muttered anything like this before either)
