Full English Translation of Japanese Diet Speech (Nov 7 2025)

Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) MP Taira Masaaki explains in Japan’s National Diet how AI-generated content, fake accounts, and coordinated “engagement bots” are being used to manipulate social media trends and public opinion.

While presented as a warning against “foreign interference,” the mechanism described here mirrors long-standing domestic opinion control networks tied to political campaigns, influencer clusters, and platform algorithms (X/Twitter Japan).

The speech quickly drew attention among independent researchers — especially because it describes, step by step, the very techniques Japan’s own ruling circles have been accused of using since the “Net Supporters Club” era under former PM Shinzo Abe and Takuya Hirai.
