I feel like it’s more than a bit insensitive to what Japan did in WW2 and that it’s much like putting a swas on a VW, but people seem to not have a problem with it. What do you guys think?

I hate to get all nuance on the internet, but where and by whom are pretty relavant.
White people in the US? Its a little fetishistic.
Japanese people in japan? Its pretty standard, its been a symbol af the country for centuries.
Japanese people in Korea/korean areas? Its at least a little insensitive, if not more.
Context matters, and the impact of symbols varies across with setting, speaker, and viewer
