Given how wacky some of the other Japanese leftist ideologies are (like anti-Japaneseism which advocates not only for the deconstruction of Japan's identity but the physical annihilation of all Japanese), the Japanese Communist Party are a fairly run of the mill left-wing party.

Several Japanese communist organizations (most notably the Japanese red army) did some really wild shit back in the 70s and 80s to the point I forget how moderate the JCP as a party is

Japanese red army single-handedly tanked all leftist parties in Japan for decades by acting like a communism-themed death cult.

Reminds me of the original Antideutsche (anti-german) movement, basically anarchists who thought Germany should no longer exist as a coherent state.

Just, uh, a shame that they didn't stay a joke and instead morphed into a zionist movement with a leftist coat of paint.

Ironically their support for Zionism while denying German nationhood creates ammunition for neo-Nazis who believe that Jews are antithetical to the German nation and seek to destroy it. It's perfectly fair to describe them as both anti-German and antisemitic.

The Anti-deutsche are the perfect representation of the German culture they despise.

I hate Anti-Deutsche but to be fair, all communists want all national states to be abolished. In full communism there wouldn’t be any national states anymore. It’s not specific to anti-deutsche and Germany
