Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

Abe's assassin was a alt right incel who turned down that path because his mother gave all the family's money, including his college savings, to a cult. At a certain point, he realized that the right wing leaders he turned to were in cahoots with the cult, and he directed his anger to them.
It's a really crazy relationship between Korean Evangelicals and Japanese Zaibatsu that produced the Abe (and now Takaichi) governments. Lots of money changing hands, lots of people being ground up in toxic and abusive socio-economic relationships, lots of scams of every variety. And they all feed into the miserable work-life balance that produces historically low rates of families forming and children being born.
It would be like an ex-Scientology guy wacking Tom Cruise or John Travolta.
Damn. Kind of hard to feel bad about that one.
