Regardless what you think of Japanese traditions they were still Japanese traditions and when everyone else was forgetting it there needed to be at least one radical holding the line. Also he was a fan of the showa restorationists and kodoha faction. And if you listen to what the showa restorationists believed majority of people here would agree with it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjZpPOWjLJ4
You contradict yourself multiple times . You claim that there were many radicals whilst also saying that "people laughed at Mishima". If there were many radicals back then then people wouldn't have laughed at him would they? Also there WERE radicals but they weren't of the nationalist kind, there were many violent communists in Japan at the time . THAT was what Yukio Mishima had been facing at the time.
