Yep. At best it has the potential to make a funny meme for a year. Reaction is already organised to seize on a crisis while adventurists aren't. A lifetime in Japanese prison to demolish one evangelical cult, probably replaced by a dozen splinter churches since, is not at all worth whoever he thought would replace Abe. At least from casually following it I haven't even seen a bigger political plan for Abe's replacement, same for both the Trump shooters and the guy who was doing target practice near Charlie Kirk during his fentanyl overdose.

The unfortunate truth is at least currently in the imperial core and its client states any left wing organisation is either non existent or has been neutered into innefectuality at least for now. The rearming of the BPP is promising but I think is yet to be indictive of any wider trend.
