Many Jewish people support the Democratic Party.”

this reminds me that in the original version of Angel Cop, the bad guys were actually the Jews who ruled America. so the communist terrorists in the beginning of the series were really working for the Jews.

Motoya puts copies of his books of totally unhinged conspiracy theory ranting in every one of his hotel rooms like a Gideon Bible in English and Japanese and if you find yourself in an APA hotel you can peruse the Japanese angle on the "Barack Obama worked as a gay prostitute" take. He is really just very mad that Japan doesn't have nuclear weapons.

Japan came out of WWII like America came out of the Civil War, which is to say nothing changed in terms of the levers of power but they had to play pretend. Like three quarters of the Japanese legislature is the descendant of Imperial beaurocrats.

Well all of eastern europe has recently shown that you don't even have to play pretend anymore since the western libs are too shell shocked and/or scared of Russia to actually react against it. You can go as right wing as you want and everybody will just pretend that it's not as bad as it looks.

Invading powers have often left local government intact while taking the heads of just the people at the top. If you already have people who know how to run a place... also, firing whole armies at a time has always been a bad move

Saudis suggested that we shoot the top two levels of every government institution and then move all their subordinates up. Practically speaking, the Saudis were right.
