3 months agoI agree in the same way there is Nazi paraphernalia/propaganda in museums today. If we don’t teach about and denounce traitors we’ll be sure to see more. These statues were used a century later to brainwash people into advocating for terrorism.
I find this to be largely true, especially of older people, for foreigners who live there. But not to discourage a visit: you are very welcomed as a tourist in most places in Japan, and any Japanese you speak will be appreciated.
