Chapter 2. What Mentalist DaiGo really wanted to say in homeless discrimination

I explained that his younger brother Ryogo Matsumaru's involvement was not premeditated, but I'm still negative about the trend that even DaiGo alone made statements with the intention of flaming.

Again, the flames are just a result, and I did not speak for the purpose of flames.

That's because I think he made this remark for a different purpose.

Shortly after the flaming remarks, four organizations, including Tsukuroi Tokyo Fund, an organization to support the needy living whose representative director is Tsuyoshi Inaba, issued an emergency statement in the form of a document.

With his deep understanding and knowledge of an expert, he understands the current flaming problem, rationally urges readers to understand the problems of public assistance and homelessness and presents DaiGo with guidelines for appropriate compensation and administrative actions to prevent recurrence. It was evaluated by many people because it appealed to.

Speaking of being an expert, since "homeless" is originally a term that indicates the condition, it does not refer to people living on the streets as "homeless", but firmly calls them "homeless people."

In addition, this emergency statement only criticizes Mr. DaiGo's discriminatory remarks, and does not mention any speculation that it is a flaming purpose such as that on the Internet.

This is why this urgent statement was not written simply to discredit Mr. DaiGo, who has a different set of values.

People who work for these support groups meet and talk to homeless people and people in need on a daily basis.

And among the homeless and the poor, it is common that they do not tell the truth due to troubles with the government or local residents, or distrust of people due to their upbringing.

Some people live by creating a different personality.

That's why people at support groups are good at perceiving people's words and their true feelings as separate things.

If DaiGo is a performer who manipulates people's minds, they are professionals who can see through people's minds.

No, rather than seeing through it, it would be more accurate to call it a technician who understands the words and true intentions of the opponent separately.

Accept what the other person says as it is and believe in it.

In response to DaiGo's apology, the emergency statement said, “It cannot be evaluated that he is truly aware of the problems with his remarks, and that his remorse and apology are no more than a mere pose. I have no choice but to say it.”

And perhaps, if DaiGo weren't in danger, these groups would just walk away.

As is common sense, we don't hold onto suspicion or hold on to it without reason.

This kind of thing is similar to the judiciary. Even if the person does not regret the criminal act, it is considered to have been rehabilitated.

The only thing that supports groups care about is whether or not the needy people they support are endangered.

From a general sense, you may feel that it is too refreshing, but that is the common sense of social welfare.

However, in my personal opinion, there are some points that do not make sense.

"These statements were made with the clear intention of inciting discrimination," the statement said.

By "clear intentions", I assume that DaiGo means what he really thinks.

After that, I understand that "I have to say that it is an extremely malicious remark that has the danger of inducing a hate crime."

This is because Mr. DaiGo is an influencer and considering the fact that homeless people are actually exposed to the disgust of the world, there is a good chance that he will actually cause an incident.

However, the use of the strong word "clear intention" sounds somewhat inductive to appeal the legitimacy of this support group.

Even if it is superficial, if public opinion judges that it can be expressed as the "clear intention" of the word, the story will change again.

But, when investigating and clarifying problems, it is important to separate the true meaning of words from the evaluation of public opinion.

Because after that, the coping and improvement measures will change.

"A life that I don't need is light to me. That's why I don't care about the lives of homeless. Isn't it better not to have them?"

Public order will get worse.

Originally, humans live by executing humans who are not suitable for their group and who are not suitable for the interests of the group as a whole.

It's the same as killing criminals."

It is also quoted in the emergency statement, but it is an excerpt of Mr. DaiGo's remarks from the newspaper article quoted at the beginning.

Here he is talking about the homeless, but the content is that it is not profitable for him, saying that "life is unnecessary for me" and "it is not a plus".

This is just speculation, but I suspect that DaiGo was only addressing his fans from the beginning, or at least the audience watching this livestream.

Of course, I think many people understand that and then criticize it.

I think that the idea is that even if the purpose is not to set fire to fire, it will eventually set fire to fire, and that the business model that generates interest and profits will disrupt ethics and order.

Similarly, I don't think I was thinking about how this remark would spread outside of the live stream and get a lot of attention from a lot of people, receive criticism, handle it well, and eventually raise my profile.

So, what is his purpose? What was his "intent"?

In my opinion, it is appealing to the fans, or to the viewers, to "be the customer who pays me."

I wanted to say that fans who don't pay, that is, who don't benefit themselves, are of little value to me.

This doesn't mean that if you don't pay, you're not a fan.

“I'm thankful that people follow me on Twitter and watch me on YouTube, but if you want to support me, I'd like you to drop me some money.”

Moreover, I don't want to be intrusive, so I'm using a very roundabout way of saying it.

He has published a book, opened a YouTube live super chat, and has a paid membership community.

People praise him, saying, "He's amazing," or "He's smart," but not everyone buys his books, donates him money, or becomes a member.

“If you are my fan, please contribute more.”

Maybe that's how he thought about it.

I don't think it's appropriate to assign good or bad to this per se.

If he believes his own product is good, I don't think it's evil to think that he wants many people to receive it.

If you are confident that you are a person who can satisfy everyone, you would like them to hear more of your thoughts too.

As these thoughts swirled around in his mind, he probably came up with the symbol of being unproductive, the homeless, a symbol of social inferiority in general.

I don't think it's directly linked to "fans and viewers who don't drop money = homeless".

However, from the general sense that no one wants to be homeless, people who do not benefit themselves are the same as homeless, right? Is he worthless to me? is it OK? It means that he may have sued.

"Buy it! Join us!"

He loses his charisma.

So, he seems to have implied something of no worth to him.

And I don't think there is any deep meaning in his bringing up the homeless, and he doesn't have any solid thoughts or beliefs.
