This is from a book called "Breaking the Seal on the GHQ Burned Books" by a Japanese author called Nishio Kanji which talks about what kind of book burning the Allied powers engaged in (media.kotakuinaction2.win)

I explained in my comment. Imperial Japan used to jail communists. So America originally put freedom of press and freedom of thought in to the constitution to protect the commies.

I'm sure they wanted to shake down Japan's political structure, but the wording is ironic because communism typically demands the removal of those freedoms.

communism typically demands the removal of those freedoms.

Only once the commies think their control has reached a point where they can't be stopped. When they're the scrappy underdog, they are all for free speech.

Well yes, but the same can be said for any group when they're the underdog. The modification of Japan's constitution would have happened after the atomic bombs were dropped and Japan had already surrendered, so by that point America is not really the scrappy underdog. This just seems like a weird point to attack the U.S. on. Is the implication here that freedom of thought is somehow bad?

The implication is , that too few people know that America engaged in massive book burning despite bitching about Germany doing that and despite claiming to be "for freedom of thought and press". Why is this part of history hidden?
