"He describes locking a disabled classmate in a box, taping a cardboard box around his head and pouring chalk inside, wrapping him in a mattress and kicking him, making him eat his own faeces, and forcing him to masturbate in front of other students." 👈acts by #KeigoOyamada
In the interview with @rockinon_com 27 years ago in the ‘90s. The editor of that magazine #YoichiroYamazaki posted a formal apology on their blog, admitting and regretting the decision he has made in publishing the article in the first place.
rockinon.com/blog/yamazaki/…
Reportedly in that article, #KeigoOyamada admitted that those acts were perpetrated, but not by himself. He said, literally, “I just came up with those ideas,”emphasizing that he was not part of those heinous acts, but just masterminded them. As if that would make it any lighter.
27 years ago, #KeigoOyamada was 25. Not a teenager in high-school. Not someone who just finished schooling and started in the real world. He was 25, at the beginning of his blissful career. Both Oyamada and editor Yamazaki could have had better common sense.
#KeigoOyamadaMustGo
27 years later, the story resurfaced to their embarrassment. #KeigoOyamada is now a well-respected artist in his 50’s, a big shot who would be selected as the lead composer of a national pride event. And the reason he would not resign is because ‘they’ve all worked hard for it."
And the 52-year-old wrote in his public apology, “… as a result of careful consideration, I decided to accept the offer because I wished that my music could be of any help.” This from a man who called himself “immature.” This grown man has to be liable to lose his job and title.
He may have the social responsibility to complete his signed contract that legally binds him. But he must also be held accountable and be liable to his actions. He must deem himself unfit to portray the Olympic Spirit and resign, as a responsible human being. #KeigoOyamadaMustGo

Finally, my uncensored literal translation of #KeigoOyamada’s own account in @rockinon_com’s interview from 27 years ago.

【速報】#CoronavirusUpdate #東京2020 2021/7/21🇺🇸米CNN #五輪組織委#武藤事務総長 が「土壇場での #開催中止 を排除せず」と報道。新型コロナの感染が拡大し選手団の中にも陽性者が増えるなか、開催中止を検討する #五者協議 を行う用意があることを会見で表明。当面は感染状況を注視する。
最大の影響はこれか

#CoronavirusUpdate #東京2020 2021/7/20🇺🇸訪日した米CNN記者「 #東京五輪 関連の陽性者は61人に。 #選手村 に住み始めた選手も含まれ米体操女子のイーカー選手もその一人。接種完了していたが陽性が確認された」状況を聞かれ「主催者は陽性者数を過小評価している」と報告。
キャスター「東京五輪に関連する新型コロナの陽性者数は61人に達しました。この中には、すでにオリンピック選手村に住み始めていた選手も含まれていました。東京のCNNのリプリー記者より中継です。
 金曜には大会が開催されますが、増加する感染者数について主催側はどう評価していますか?」
リプリー記者「過小評価していますね。22,000人が既に入国している中で61人という数は想定よりも少なかったと。なぜならその半分が日本在住の関係者だからと主催者側は主張します。残りの28人ほどは、空港検疫や日次検査で陽性と判明しました。」

‘96 @rockinon_com article:

Oyamada (O): Bullying in our school was really horrible.

- But you said you’re the one that bullied them?

O: Yeah I was. Come to think of it I’ve done some horrible stuff. I’m gonna apologize here n’ now (lol). Cuz that was some really shitty stuff. Image
- Doing things you just wouldn’t do?

O: Yeah, inhumane stuff. Like stripping ‘em naked, wrapping ‘em up and make ‘em jerk off, then make ‘em eat their own shit, and give ‘em belly-to-back suplex while they’re eating their own shit and stuff like that.

- (LMAO) Image
- You talked about dead frog the other day but I knew it wouldn’t stop there.

O: But I didn’t do it myself, you know. I just give them ideas (lol) Image

小山田圭吾の行為を、元の雑誌記事の引用に留まらず、また単に「虐待行為」や「いじめ行為」とせず(「いじめ」(bullying)という言葉すら使っていない)、具体的に一つ一つの行為を書き表し、それら行為に対する判断を読者に委ねた。この姿勢、五輪推進メディはにはおおよそ不可能だろう。
だが私も恥じ入った。

自分自身、“いじめ“の被害者として、それを“いじめ“という世間一般で通じる言葉に置き換えてしまっていたからだ。なぜなら、自分がされたことを具体的に書き表すのは、臓腑を抉られるほどの屈辱であり恥辱だからだ。だが、「いじめ」という言葉に書き落とすべきではなかった。
小山田圭吾は、一連の残虐行為(atrocious acts)の「実行者」ではないそうだ。「アイディアを出しただけ」と雑誌記事には書いてあったか。よくも、そんな残虐な行為を思いつくものである。その行為を言われるままに書き記した雑誌社は今になって、「心の底からお詫びしたい」のだという。
一体誰に❓
