2022/10/04ーHiroyuki mocks Okinawa's anti-base protests with a smile, severe criticism of "vicious" and "lowest sense"
《すごいいい笑顔！！！！What a beautiful smile!!!》《この笑顔を守りたいI want to protect this smile》
《久々に腹が立ったI've been angry for a long time》《こういうの本当に悪質だよなThis is really bad stuff》《悔しくて涙が出る。ここに座り込み続ける人たちを嘲笑うようなことがなぜできるのか。こんな馬鹿馬鹿しいツイートになぜ何万も「いいね」がついてしまうのか。基地問題の本質は沖縄にあるのではなく、本土のこうした無知と無関心と冷笑にあることを改めて痛感するI'm so frustrated I'm in tears. How can anyone ridicule the people who continue to sit here? How can such a ridiculous tweet get tens of thousands of likes? I am once again keenly aware that the essence of the base issue does not lie in Okinawa, but in the ignorance, indifference and cynicism of the mainland》https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDoJJt6mvbw

2022/10/20ー"I'm sorry from the mainland to the people of Okinawa" - Hiroyuki's remarks on the Henoko tour - RKB Mainichi Broadcasting commentator "apologises" on radio program
ひろゆきさんの投稿がネット上で「いいね」を集めていることにはHiroyuki's posts have been garnering a lot of likes online「沖縄の人たちの心に傷を負わせているが、配慮は何もないThese things are hurting the hearts of the people of Okinawa, but no consideration is being given to them」と憤ったhe said indignantly（神戸金史Kanebumi Kanbe）.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwAse4L6isI

2024/10/10ーHiroyuki apologizes for being late to live broadcast: "I was playing games in the bathroom and lost track of time..."



2024/10/14ーThe man who created the message board that Hiroyuki called "ugly writing" expresses his frustration over his mother being killed by a US soldier
「どんな思いで基地に反対し、座り込みをしているのか分からないのだろうI don't think he understands what people are thinking when we protest against the base and hold sit-ins」https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQkuujjzW2c

2022/10/06ーNo response from Hiroyuki regarding apology or retraction; Citizens react to sit-in and post "Wouldn't it be better to make it 0 days?"
「辺野古を訪れるにあたり、その背景である沖縄の基地被害、また日米地位協定などについてどのような書籍などで勉強されましたか？When you visited Henoko, what books did you study about the background of the base damage in Okinawa and the Japan-US Status of Forces Agreement?"」
　私の質問に彼は「一般的なものです」と答え、「今回は辺野古の取材ではないので」という言葉を放ち、自身の番組の番宣をして去った。曲がりなりにも言論人とされる彼が辺野古を訪れながら、沖縄に関する一冊の書籍の名前も挙げられなかったことには驚かされたIn response to my question, he(Hiroyuki) answered "general information," and then said, "This time, I'm not covering Henoko," before promoting his own program and leaving. I was surprised that he, who is considered a public figure in his own right, could not name a single book about Okinawa despite visiting Henoko.https://diamond.jp/articles/-/310908?page=2

2023/08/08ーThe Henoko "sit-in" becomes a joke for the debate king Hiroyuki: The pain of the Okinawan people being met with cold laughter
Since Okinawa was returned to Japan in 1972, US military bases have been forced upon it. Journalist Koichi Yasuda points out that there is a "mainland" that ridicules, discriminates against, and coldly rejects Okinawa.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkfmNzgxJrU

2022/12/19ーHiroyuki mocks Okinawa: colonialism behind the sneer | | Shinako Oyakawa
Hiroyuki's tweet mocking the sit-in at Henoko (Nago City, Okinawa Prefecture) reminded Okinawa that it is an object of ridicule from Japan. By laughing, you find allies. There are people who will join you on the ride, customers, and there is profit to be gained by mocking Okinawa. Okinawa has been shown that it is okay to criticize Okinawa, and that there is a certain customer base that is appreciated for mocking Okinawa.
①2019年になり、あなた方（日本とアメリカ）の民主主義と自由は孤独化の上に立っているIt's 2019, and your (Japan and America) democracy and freedom are built on isolation. 私たち琉球・沖縄の人々は植民地から解放されることを望んでいます。 あなたと同じように、私たちも自己決定権を望んでいますWe, the Ryukyu/Okinawa people, want to be liberated from colonial rule. Like you, we want the right to self-determination. 私たちは人間として平等な権利を持つべきですWe should have equal rights as human beings.

・・・「ひろゆき氏が沖縄を笑えるのはなぜか−多数派の特権と暴力 Why can Hiroyuki laugh at Okinawa? - Privilege and violence of the majority. 」 （阿部岳Takeshi Abe：論座Ronza、１０月３１日） 番組の中で、ひろゆきは思い込みを指摘されても、へらへらと笑みを浮かべ、時に嘲笑した。阿部はその笑いを、強い側にいる人間の特権であると論じ、笑いのめすことの暴力性を指摘する In the program, even when Hiroyuki's assumptions were pointed out, he would smile and sometimes even laugh. Abe argues that this laughter is the privilege of those in a stronger position, and points out the violence of laughing at others.「自分が多数派の側にいて、反発されても数の力で押し流せることを知っているからこそ、人は安心して対峙（たいじ）する相手を笑いのめすことができるHiroyuki knows that he is on the side of the majority and that even if he faces opposition he can push it aside with the power of numbers, which is why he can feel safe and laugh at those who confront him.」・・・ひろゆきの嘲笑は、さまざまなものを毀損（きそん）している。まずは、沖縄の人たちの尊厳である。自らのポジショナリティに対する省察がないまま、相手に軽蔑的な笑いを向けることは、許されることではないHiroyuki's ridicule is damaging many things. First of all, it is the dignity of the Okinawan people. It is not permissible to direct contemptuous laughter at someone without any reflection on one's own positionality.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BuvAYdBNTE&t=141s

「1日に3回、何十台ものトラックが土砂を運び込む。それを阻止するために老人たちは座り込む。警備の人間に抱き上げられて排除される。これを毎日、何年も繰り返しているんですよ。その姿を見ればこんな事は言えないはずThree times a day, dozens of trucks bring in soil and sand. The elderly sit down to stop this. They are picked up by security personnel and removed. This has been going on every day for years. If you saw what they were like, you would never say such a thing.」（ラサール石井氏Mr. LaSalle Ishii ）
「1日20分ぐらいの抗議行動を平日に3回やる事を『座り込み3011日』と表現するのは誤解を招く行為なので、『抗議行動』に変えたら？　と、話しかけられた現地の人に言いましたが、まともな返答はありませんでしたよI told the local people I spoke to that it's misleading to call protests that last about 20 minutes a day, three times a week, the '3011 days of sit-ins,' so they should just call them 'protest actions,' but I didn't get a proper response.」「沖縄在住の方に『沖縄の今を見た方が良い』と言われて行きましたSomeone who lives in Okinawa told me, 'It would be a good idea to see what Okinawa is like now,' so I went.」
「今日も炎天下の中座り込みやってましたよ。『座り込みの意味』を辞書で調べるよりも、『座り込みやってる意味』を直接聞いた方がよくない？They were doing a sit-in under the scorching sun again today. Rather than looking up the meaning of 'sit-in' in a dictionary, wouldn't it be better to ask them directly what the 'meaning of doing a sit-in' is?」（せやろがいおじさん氏Mr. Seyarogai Ojisan）
「実際には、辺野古の基地前に1日1時間ほどしか座ってないという事実を知らない人が出るんですよね。それとも毎日23時間もトイレに行ってるのかな？In reality, some people don't know that they only sit in front of the base at Henoko for about an hour a day. Or do they go to the toilet 23 hours a day?」


2022/10/13ーTreating the Henoko base issue as a joke, Mr. Hiroyuki has no respect for human dignity
・・・抗議が8年以上続いていることを、何の下調べもなく、全て無駄であったかのように言うのは、乱暴過ぎるし礼を失しているだろうIt would be too rude and disrespectful for (Hiroyuki) to say, without any prior research, that the protests have been going on for over eight years and that they have all been in vain. 炎上すると辞書の「座り込み」の意味を持ち出し反論するなど、子供じみていて、いったいTVクルーまで連れて、沖縄に何を撮りにきたのかさっぱりわからないWhen the controversy flared, (Hiroyuki) responded childishly by citing the dictionary definition of "sit-in," and it's unclear what on earth he brought a TV crew to Okinawa to film.・・・　それは勉強不足（この手の皆さんが相手を論破する時によく使う言葉ですが）ということより、人間の尊厳に対する敬意の底の浅さを感じるのであるThis is not so much a lack of knowledge (a word that people like this often use when trying to refute others), but rather a shallowness of respect for human dignity.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2B7RU3jAYto

2022/10/31ーSense of crisis over Hiroyuki's remarks that spread malice
＜There are people in this world who want to be free from the "sensible argument" that accusations from minorities and human rights issues should be resolved as the responsibility of society as a whole.＞
「『寝たきり老人の胃ろうに保険適用しません。飯が食えない老人は自費で生き残るか諦めてください』と言える政治家が必要になりますWe need politicians who can say, 'Insurance will not cover gastrostomy tubes for bedridden elderly people. Elderly people who cannot afford to eat will have to either survive by paying for it themselves or give up.」（10月17日/ひろゆきHiroyuki）https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=on9qpAAUnGs
ひろゆき氏は10月3日から、沖縄の辺野古基地建設反対運動で行われている建設資材の搬入を阻止するための座り込み行動に対して、工事車両が来ないときは座り込んでないのだから、これは座り込み運動ではないという揶揄を続けているSince October 3rd, Hiroyuki has been mocking the sit-in protests being held to prevent the delivery of construction materials in the anti-construction movement at Henoko, Okinawa, by saying that since there are no sit-ins when construction vehicles are not coming, it is not a sit-in protest.・・・このような、10月に投稿されたひろゆき氏の一連の発言に共通しているのは、多数派にとって目障りで、お荷物とみなされているような対象を、悪意をもって踏み付けるという意志に他ならないWhat these series of comments posted by Hiroyuki in October have in common is nothing other than a willingness to maliciously trample on those who are seen by the majority as an eyesore and a burden.・・・ひろゆき氏は10月の一連の発言に関して、どれについても謝罪をしていない。これは極めて危険な兆候だ。こうした発言が許され、支持されてしまうなら、それは社会の底が抜けてしまったということだからだHiroyuki has not apologized for any of the comments he made in October. This is a very dangerous sign. If such comments are tolerated and supported, it would mean that society has fallen into disarray. だから私たちは、たとえ「問題提起」だろうと許されない発言はあるのだ、ということを、もう一度確認する必要があるのだSo we need to reaffirm that there are some comments that are not tolerated, even if they are just "raising an issue."https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ke-vcZBj6c
