Why is it every American knows who Hitler was and how evil he was but nobody can tell you the name of the Japanese leaders during WW2?

Because the Germans could prove beyond all doubt with the Hitler topic, That Americans did an evil thing, for the sake of evil, for the same reason a nigger does pistolpoint at a gas station put the god damn money in the bag nobody gets shot, and Japan has no such 'evil for the sake of evil' function which would land on the boomer's ability to see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.
Why are rocks and bricks used for the chimney but wood and paper used for the walls? Wouldn't you want to use rocks and bricks for everything, so it lasts a thousand years instead of just a hundred years before melting?
The Squeaky wheel gets grease. The nail that sticks out gets smashed over the head in retaliation for stabbing people in the foot.

The European Morality assessment rewards Americans with negative points, wheras the Japanese Morality assessment rewards Americans with positive points. Therefore a surplus and over abundance of words appear in the brains of boomers when asked about Adolf Hitler, but none appear when asked about Japanese literal-who and his successful 3 month conquest of China.

Tojo and Hirohito are the only ones I could think of, offhand.

It's forbidden to learn about Nazi Germany. Nobody cares if you read about Japan.

Japan started the conflict between them and China, but America started the conflict between them and Europe.
Blame assessment lands on the European front but not the japanese front, and so the surplus of cognitive dissonance appears on the one where it's our fault a conflict occurred.
If two men you don't know pulverize each other, you don't care, but if you a conflcit you started results in someone getting hurt, you feel bad about it.
Therefore boomers have words for hitler but not for whoever started a fight in Japan and China.
Morality 101 for children.

Two men outside of your field of control pulverize each other and you finish the fight: Nobody cares.
You start a fight with a random person, and they get wrecked: Cognitive Dissonance happens and a rats nest of words both wanted and required appears when the topic comes up.
Therefore Hitler requires an surplus of word devices, but Emperor Hirohito does not.

People know Tojo and Hirohito, but the truth is Japan simply had no charismatic leaders like Hitler or Mussolini
Tojo and Hirohito were almost nothing like them
Imperial Japan is a proof that Totalitarianism could work without actual leaders

The problem in Japan at the time was that there was no strong leader. In fact, Hideki Tojo was forced to resign as prime minister during the war.
Neither the emperor nor the prime minister wanted to go to war, but they had to start it.
