Not sure how its "romanticizing " to say the facts that the military class ruled for nearly a thousand years. i didn't say that their leadership was necessarily good(though i do think being ruled by a military class is better than being ruled by merchants and bankers like today) but i do say that Japan was a militaristic country for a large junk of their history and them completely rejecting this is completely backwards and rejecting a large junk of what their heritage is

Japan was ruled by their shogunate military class and bushido values for nearly a thousand years and now they are scared of having a military i WOULD consider that a rejection of what they should be

Its not true that they don't have guilt over ww2 or that they don't acknowledge it. Its more that they don't agree with the specifics of it. . it would be more like if Germany claimed "no we didn't kill 6 million jews we only killed 2 million". Japan doesn't deny outright they just argue about the specifics but this is counted as "denying " to the woke.
