I agree with the other things people mentioned, and I don't care that he did it for the money, attention of if he has nazi views (the point that he did it is important). But Mishima is really stretching it. He is really popular outside Japan and has a good prose. Much much nore non nazis like his writing so I wouldn't call it a dog whistle.
If it acts like a Nazi, Likes Nazi reading, And insists it's not a Nazi.
It's a Nazi.
I agree about that part, just that it shouldn't be used against other people who like Mishima (he is not my cup of tea but some people I know who like him are definitrly not nazis)
