One of the biggest ideological advantages the US capitalist rulers had
over Japanese capitalists was that the Japanese bosses made no bones about
their class aims . They even openly named their military " Japanese
Imperial Navy"
and " Japanese Imperial Army" whereas the US was far cleverer in hiding
their
true imperialist aims behind military-political banners of ' Arsenals of
democracy' and "freedom", etc. -( freedom mainly for capitalist
profitmaking of course!), but this works much better to politically
stupify and dupe the gullible , but politically underdeveloped/confused
sectors , the majority on the home front...
Later, The US really smartened up during the cold-war when they changed the
name of the War Department
to the Department of Defense!
Such is one reason why our clever rulers much prefer the Democratic State
mystifications , political forms,
and will only flip their political state over toward fascism in huge
emergencies, i.e. revolutionary situations developing , etc.
