Same rule about massacre shooters applies to assassins: almost always connected to far left and/or government, and the mainstream press often omits the connections in its coverage.
Following Abe’s assassination, several shops and restaurants celebrated in mainland China with special discounts for the weekend.
This sign in #CCPChina says, "Today Only: We are so happy today. Former Japanese Prime Minister #ShinzoAbe was shot and killed. To celebrate, anyone who enters the store today and buys a lottery ticket for 100 yuan or more will get 8.80 yuan back per 100 yuan."
