Doing a good deed in the midst of a tragedy
should earn you the respect of everyone, but the anonymity of the internet
always finds a way to ruin the moment with cheap moralism. The renowned adult
video actress Yu Tano decided to do her part and donated the
not inconsiderable amount of 3 million yen to the Japanese Red Cross to
support the victims of the recent devastating earthquake in Kumamoto.
In addition to the cash injection, the actress coordinated with a friend in
Hiroshima to send emergency supplies including drinks, sanitary products, and
essential diapers to ground zero.
Through her media, Tano confessed to feeling
deeply affected every time she saw the news reports about the catastrophe.
Although she herself considered that her financial contribution was small
compared to the magnitude of the disaster, her only wish was that the victims
could return to their normal lives as soon as possible. However, instead of
applauding the gesture, a rather noisy sector of the Japanese community began
a regrettable cybernetic funa, describing his noble contribution as
"dirty money" solely and exclusively for his work within the entertainment
industry in Japan.
今回の地震で、みんなから「大丈夫だよ」という声をたくさん聞くことができて、本当に安心しました。

でも、まだ安心しきれる状況ではないと思います。
余震が起こる可能性もあるので、どうかこれからも気をつけて過ごしてください。…
Far from being intimidated by puritanical
attacks, the actress responded with a maturity that made her detractors look
ridiculous. Tano made it clear that there is absolutely no valid reason to deny
someone the opportunity to provide humanitarian support just because of their
profession. His argument was blunt: the only thing that really matters in these
crisis situations is that the aid reaches the hands of the people who lost everything,
regardless of what pocket the financing that manages to save their lives comes
from.
Seeing how some netizens prefer to spit poison
on the morality of money instead of thanking that there are resources to help
people in crisis
