Hello this is Belno Zero this account is dedicated to modern Mongolian & Korean history (specifically Colonial Korea to the Fifth Republic).
We might time to time outside of general picture poasting have threads dedicated to a certain subject one Belno want's to write about.
On July 6, Mindan delivered a petition to Centrist Reform Alliance lawmakers Chinami Nishimura and Eriko Omori opposing tighter policies affecting foreign residents. The move followed meetings with Komeito, the SDP, and CDP on June 18–19.
Mindan is Japan’s main organization for its multigenerational Korean community. Over the past month, it has sought party backing against measures it says could deepen discrimination and administrative pressure on foreign residents.
Its objections include expanded grounds for revoking permanent residence, stricter naturalization and permanent-residency criteria, adding nationality to property registration, and linking residence and special permanent-resident cards with My Number cards.
A related dispute is unfolding in Mie, where Gov. Katsuyuki Ichimi may restore nationality requirements for some civil-service exams from September 2026 onwards, though it has been reported the survey conducted had disappointing results for those in favor of restoration. With a majority neutral, not caring, or against.

A short thread on the evolution of Mongolian words for ideological concepts.
I am Belno Red and we will start with the word for Communism, which is Эвхамт (the picture below is a cover for a translation of the Communist Manifesto).

My closing thoughts on the thread:
There is not enough sociolinguistic analysis of modern Mongolian being tied to Chinese like all other "Sinosphere" languages.
This is also part of my thesis on Mongolia being part of this intellectual tradition, whether it wants to or not.
