    And then Japan did a wholesome enslavement/genocide in Korea, China, and a bunch of other places 🥰

      Unfortunately, the past war crimes, were horrific and the lack of accountability for them remains an issue. I can not speak for the average Japanese citizen but I have a feeling most of the Japanese people are ashamed of the cult of personality of their past leaders and wish the current government would handle things like the controversies surrounding Yasukuni Shrine differently. Much like most American's don't support Trumpism.
