Would you mind explaining the 3K bit? I’m unfortunately rather ignorant about the relationship between the ROT3K and historical analysis of the period.
An important detail: the author has walked back. Less radical with age, a familiar tragedy. But undisputed as formerly a member of the party.
Lol yep, same thing happened with Miyazaki, perhaps to a lesser degree.
As for the three kingdoms, the opening poem in it says "The empire, long divided, must unite; long united, must divide." Now, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a pretty lofty work of literature so there are deeper analyses out there, but it's an example of that narrative voice that says "this stuff just happens, man" instead of taking some kind of stance.
(Considering its place as one of the "three great works" of Chinese literature I'm sure it's more intelligent than I'm making it sound but you get the idea)
