The Dark Side of Japan

As I was browsing through YouTube, I encountered a bizarre channel by this Japanese man, who is in his 50s.

He has been uploading videos on YouTube about five years. He claims that his neighbors are stalking on him and he has been filming the entire scene in order to protect himself. He calls it "集団ストーカー" as in Shuudan Stalker. It basically means gang stalking but more like collective stalking in its translation.

Here is one of the weird videos that he uploaded. The video is filmed after he spat on his neighbor's house. These two brothers are furious at the uploader, by the way the name of the channel owner is "Iwama". Apparently, it is his second time that he spat on their house, I can understand someone this level of insanity living next door to my house would probably make me feel the same way like these boys.

If you just watch this video, you might think that these two thugs are the bad ones. However, if you really see his channel close enough, you will realize that these poor boys are victims of Iwama gang stalking. 

This video is just one of the thousand examples to prove that the Iwama guy is just insane.

I believe he suffers from a severe schizophrenia, which is causing him to see delusion that he has been gang stalked. 

Now, in my real life, I have met a couple of people who actually talk about being gang stalked and it is understandable that severe symptom of schizophrenia may be the cause of such idea, however things must be taken care of when he is affecting people around him just like this YouTube guy.

I have not yet seen anyone who talked about gang stalking outside of Japan and I thought this was some sort of Japan only issue. 

Yet it is actually not true. This seems to be observable around the world and in fact YouTube Vice channel has a video of gang stalking. 

This is sort of absurd to us ordinary people, but is a crucial problem for people suffering schizophrenia and the very problem of that is that they themselves do no realize that they are being schizophrenia. 

I think parents or relatives could take a bit of care and try to encourage them to get to psychiatrist or at least get them to have counseling so that they may in time realize that it is not people around them, who are acting insane but they themselves.
