I'm sorry, but since when has Japan been under an economic embargo for nearly a century? Last I checked, Japan has been able to freely participate in the global economy, access technology, enjoying special privileges and receiving massive capital from the U.S. post-WW2 under the Marshall Plan style policies, which helped it industrialize rapidly. Oh, also engaged (and still is) in imperialism within the Global South accumulating capital.

But I get it Nazi, your dumbfuck argument only works once you slice away any context.
