The satire is good, but beneath it, in the reality of modern history and today, you do realize just how genuinely, barbarically cruel the Japanese Empire was? To put it another way, if you truly, genuinely had to start living under it as of tomorrow, would you genuinely prefer that the dominating hegemony be enforced by a country like the old Japanese Empire, or say modern Russia, or China, or the Modern Middle East, vs one dominated by the United States?
Many people who snidely show disgust at U.S cultural, social and economic/political domination of the world, or at least major parts of it, do so while voluntarily living in countries influenced by that same domination and not countries under the control of a rival power structure.
