Yeah totally. But if you dare even insinuate that Japan was anything other than a victim of WW2, the public outcry is so massive that you will be forced to publicly apologize and denounce your previous statement
Do you have something to back this up? That wasn’t the feeling I had during the seven years I lived in Japan. There was something of a victim mentality, but it wasn’t as militant as you are making out.
I’m quite certain that the Japanese understand that the imperialists were at fault for the war.
They’re understandably salty about how the war ended but were also extremely aware that alternative outcomes would have had much more death and destruction than just the two cities.
The US didn’t just drop nukes because they thought it was funny, they did it as a last resort because the alternative was meat waves on both sides.
At least imperial japan no longer exists. Anyone flying the flag is seen as a nationalistic weirdo by normal Japanese people.

It’s a pity, because the design (!) is pretty rad
The Japanese military still flies nearly the same flag.
