Four preregistered studies (1,584 multi-agent simulations, 16 languages, 3 model families) prove that alignment interventions reducing harmful outputs in English actively amplify them in Japanese and 14 other languages. Alignment-induced dissociation correlates with Power Distance Index. Fundamental implication: safety validated monolingually cannot transfer. (arXiv 2603.04904)
