  1. I was listening to Dan Carlin's Hardcore History podcast with the Supernova in the East series on Japan pre, during and end of WW2. He described this era of radical extremism and fascism as "government by assassination". Truly shocking stuff

  2. Given the sheer level of fanaticism in Japanese society during that era that gave rise to these assassinations, it's no surprise that after WW2, many Japanese students and some citizens ended up becoming Marxist terrorists who committed waves of bombings, killings, robberies, assassinations and even Islamic terrorism because said fanaticism was still rooted in Japanese culture and academia during that time. Fortunately, Japan weeded it out in later years.
