You’re engaging in moral equivocation. Germany has paid reparations to it’s victims and still continues to do so. Successive Japanese governments have never done so. This isn’t a question of racism although the Japanese did engage in racial genocide in WW2. This is about a nation accepting it’s responsibility in being an aggressor in a war it deliberately provoked , owning up the the horrible atrocities it committed and making restitution, beyond verbal apologies, to it’s victims.

Two huge differences:

  1. The Germans elected Hitler and enthusiastically supported him. The Japanese military took over in a coup.
  2. The Germans continue to support importation of the closest thing the world has today to the supremacist nazi idealogy of the 1930s and 1940s, namely Islamist supremicists. Japan has only two mosques in the entire country and imports only the most moderate of Muslims in very limited numbers.
