In 1952, 25% of Germans still liked Hitler. And other interesting end of WW2 opinion polls.

only the Germans bought the guilt thing, and only because of the jew holocaust narrative. Look at this guy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indro_Montanelli

the problem is the cultural influence of America, and honestly Japan isn't particularly better when it comes to culture.

Correct me if wrong, but there's still a major stigma against Benito Mussolini in the West. While not as villainized as Hitler, he was the original Fascist with a government that was meant to serve the people, while rejecting Capitalism & Socialism. If there are attempts by Italians to rehabilitate his image, I would be interested in seeing it.

I even recall that one of Mussolini's grandchildren has survived and entered politics, but she quit in 2020 just to join a dancing show. Yeah, not a good look...

It clearly is.

American influence hasn't caused them to lose control of demographics. And in terms of immigration, there is no easy entry to Japan that doesn't involve court cases or being instantly deported.

It's possible for a nation survive the ill effects of Capitalism, but there is no going back from multiculturalism & diversity.

There's no attempt because at the present time it's quite unlikely to find a right winger which despise Mussolini. It's not like people is actually fascist, is just that they don't find fascism itself particularly bad and as a result the judgement about fascism is highly dependent on the right-left divide. There's not that much guilt about that, but there's not that much interest either.

Regarding Japan, they have different issues compared to the west, but they have tons of issues. They are a dying culture in every possible sense, they are extremely degenerated and in a severe birth crisis. Sure, they are xenophobic, but that isn't enough.

Japan has been around for thousands of years. It would be unprecendent to see a country just magically fall off the Earth that wasn't caused by some other disaster like war. And the birth crisis is not exclusive to them.

In Canada for example, we have areas that are lower than Japan. 0.95 for Victoria B.C vs 1.36 Japan.

Also, the birth crisis is just another symptom of the alienation of the youth from the society. Japan has the NEET phenomenon, which is not something you are going to fin elsewhere, at least at those level. So, while they are kinda based about the race, they have their own cultural problems.

This is where natural selection comes in. NEETS & Boomers wont be around forever since one is too old to reproduce, and the other doesn't care.

But what do you think happens to the Japanese who still have families? They're obviously going to inherit the nation.

Edit: And it turns out it's another exaggeration. Mexico & Turkey have 6x as many shut-ins, yet do you think those countries are going to be extinct anytime soon?

In fact, Japan comes last in that list. There are several European countries that rank higher in NEETS.
