“Shot an unpopular politician”
Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?
(Yes ik Trump)
“Entire nation hates him”
I mean, define “popular politician” / " unpopular politician." Does the fact that the media constantly shoves all these yahoos in our faces make these political figures popular? Unpopular? It’s all corrupt and I hate every mention of ANY politician’s names, while some people choose politicians to cheer for like it’s a fekkin sports team.
I think you’ll see plenty of attempts after this, some inspired by it and others in retaliation. Fun times for the US
There was a time when America could reliably produce assassins who could kill both presidential candidates and even sitting presidents. What the he’ll happened? Deindustralization? Too much porn and video games?
did I really learn about an assassination attempt thru lemmy
Isn’t that the point of Lemmy? So you don’t have to rawdog news?

Why was he imperialist?

I wouldn’t call him imperialist, but he repeatedly denied WW2 Japanese war crimes (in particular the Nanking massacre and the use of Korean ‘comfort women’). This is the rough equivalent of a German Chancellor denying the Holocaust.
I wouldn’t call him imperialist either. I think he was a pretty decent leader for Japan. He wasn’t murdered for his politics, but because of his religious affiliation.
