Or like how there is a small but fast-growing nationalist far-right party in Japan right now, that is slowly gaining political power in the government as the long-standing traditional conservative party falls out of favor with the people.

You would think the Japanese of all people would understand the dangers of becoming nationalistic and imperialistic again. ๐Ÿ˜ž

Wait japan has another nationalist party now? The LDP is right wing and nationalist and has been in power for all but 6 years since the mid 50s

As someone living in Japan, I feel like it's a different flavour of nationalism.

The LDP is more like "we're better than all of you gaijin but fuck China and Korea specifically," but at least pretend like they care about how they look on the world stage. Whereas the Sanseito is more like, "WHAT'S UP YOUTUBE FUCK FOREIGNERS CAUSING ALL THESE PROBLEMS IN JAPAN AMIRITE?"
