      After surrender, all the OG fascist japanese politicians just formed the Liberal Party, which has ruled since. No fascist politician was ever purged nor anything. Liberalism is just rational fascism.

        One of the LDP prime ministers from the 1950s was outright a war criminal on the scale of Himmler (Kishi)

        Damn someone should write a book about that. Maybe call it something snazzy, maybe about the uniforms soldiers wore? "Black Pants and Red" sounds good.
