I think they’re saying that if Abe isn’t the prime minister anymore (because dead) then she isn’t the First Lady anymore either
That's like someone posting a picture of a newspaper when Bush was president and then someone commenting "well he's not president now haha" like yeah everyone knows that...
But it doesn’t say Abe’s name, so it’s very likely there’s some folks who don’t realize that this photo is rather old. It would be easy to read it and think this just happened in the last few days.
I think they were trying to be helpful, it’s likely not something worth being upset over.
Oh phew thanks for letting me know i was losing sleep over this
Seems like you were behaving pretty irrationally, and basic common sense was eluding you, so I was just trying to be helpful.
Oh wise commenter please show me the way!
I have no idea who Japan's current president is, so it's very useful information to me.
