>>831238>Johnny Kitagawa-codedyou know how in china/japan/korea they have those boy/girl bands? well, it turns out that, to the surprise of no one, the guy that invented the format was a cia asset and prolific pedophile that abused more than 500 minors and never faced any type of prosecution. the only time it went to court was at the very beginning before he became the biggest music producer in japan, and the verdict was that raping a 11 years old boy was fine as long as he wasn't the legal guardian. the guy has been dead for 7 years but his crimes are still a taboo in japanese media (meaning that if you work there you will lose your job if you talk about it) because all the owners of the other media companies are just like him and don't want a metoo effect
it's like a cobweb and whenever I see something from there I can't stop thinking that it is just the product of the most exploitative casting couch ever devised
I guess you could say I'm asking for indie stuff that isn't related to the terrible media complex
