If the Germans can do, I don't see why Japan can't.

Trouble is that there were too many echoes of the old guard from the bad old days.  They quietly kowtowed to us Americans and were basically promoted while behind closed doors they sneered at us and perpetuated their hatred of us - which was made easier by the hard times occupation and reconstruction brought about.  They knew better than to bite the hand that was feeding them, though.  Fast-forward to present day.  Some of the younger generation are unaware of what happened in the past, and some of this minority spout hateful and xenophobic nationalism.  Just like what happened nearly a hundred years before.
This... worries me.

You are going to have bigots of every stripe in every country. Even in the U.S. Best we can do is keep an weather eye out and see it doesn't blossom into action against. us.
