I’m sure is frustrating that the media is white washing the guy (not that was unexpected, specially in Japan). But why discuss his political legacy in a way that, while critical, doesn’t sound unhinged or stupid.
Example:
Fuck this guy. Grandpa was a CIA backed war criminal and Shinzo Abe is a far right nationalist war crimes denier. Japan has effectively been a one party (far right) state for the majority of post WW2. Rest in piss.
I get what he was trying to say (CIA backed a conservative US friendly government during PostWar Japan because commies, Abe’s grandfather was a monster), but at first I thought he was saying that the CIA was backing the guy to do war crimes during Imperial Japan.
