In the West, there is still very little knowledge about Japanese atrocities. Far more people have heard of Kristallnacht than the Rape of Nanjing, even if the former was a flash in the pan by comparison.

The experiments of Unit 731 makes Mengele look like an amateur by comparison. It says something badly of Japan that they still have a shrine where many of the worst war criminals are celebrated. They have also refused to properly make amends with South Korea for their use of enforced sexual slavery ("comfort women").

Unfortunately, I don't see things changing for the better. If you look at the polls, Japan seems to be slowly getting its own MAGA copycats.

Honestly, what China is doing is no different from the US making a bunch of World War 2 movies every year. The Nazis are probably the most common historical enemy portrayed in US movies. The difference is the Germans could care less about it because they've cut all ties with the Nazis.

For Chinese, Imperial Japan is just an easy choice for a villain, similar to the Nazis for Americans, because it's not particularly controversial, either within China or globally. The fact that the Japanese keep taking offense at the portrayal of Imperial Japan in Chinese movies and TV shows, though, says a lot more about them, than it does about China.

It is controversial for weebs though.

Although weebs might be a dying breed as China gets better video games and anime while Japan kinda stagnates. Shows the power of Japan's "soft power".

Until China starts forgoing some of its rules about "fan service" I doubt weebs will be a dying breed.

Looks like losing a wife like that would be the pro to balancing out the cons. Surgical ablation of necrotic tissue isn't a loss at all.

Bro would be trading up. A snake for a monitor lizard.

I honestly don't understand how Christianity equals viture because in this video they turned Charlie Kirk's memorial into a christian conversion rally and advertises merch. For some reason they expect China and Myanmar to accommodate Christians yet they won't respect other religions and demanded that they assimilate into their societies (This applies to both Europe and America).


But for some reason China gets criticized for sinicizing Christanity and Islam despite Europe enacting similar laws like make up your minds already. Christianity is literally no different than the muslim "Sharia" that they villify so much because they have the same values.



I am glad China completly banned all forms of conversion recently because it's ironic that they demanded religious freedom yet won't respect the native culture and buddhism. Last week I had some guy do a conversion sermon in the middle of my university class which is irritating because they're forcing jesus on me despite telling Palestinian Christian that they can go fuck themselves.

Christianity is different from sharia, way different. Both Christianity and Islam have different roots.

TBH sometimes I think people on this forum give too much effort in trying to rebuke Japanese talking points with "neutral logic"...... Japanese have always been fascists. They never changed. (If you have lurked Japanese news sites/twitter/5ch long enough or just know enough about how they love to go to that fucking shrine or talk about intervention in Taiwan reunification, you would know.) They come from a evil position. This people is just that fucking evil. Don't try to reason with them.

Also, Japanese war crimes are far far from just 731 or Nanjing. There are so many massacres.

In my experience with Japanese people, They might be the only country to be sick and stupid enough to try to meddle with AR. I hope they do. So they can finally be crushed and those millions of dead people can rest in peace.

I mean before they westernized, Japan was known in China and Korea as annoying pirate raiders. No different from Mongols.

Difference is Mongols have a track record. Japan funny enough always screwed up the most when it came to the navy. You figure an island nation would have a better navy.

Still crazy to me about the complete lack of backlash to US military blatantly killing unarmed civilians in a foreign land arbitrarily.

Imagine if any country did the same in california.

It’s because it never happened. It’s fiction. You can’t get upset at something that never happened.

I can’t find the original post but I have found a follow up article on SCMP.

Seems pretty clear about that person being shattered.

As far as I’m concerned, Israel has not adequately explained how a former Chinese ambassador ended up dead in Israel when pompeo visited Israel during the last trump presidency.

Imagine losing your H1B and residency status, only to then lose your wife as well.Gotta be tough...poor guy.

According to their belief system they can simply get repaid next life. Incidentally, this explains a lot of Indian behaviour and current antipathy towards the Indian diaspora.

Thank fuck I am not living in the USA. Trump is determined to make the USA a white man paradise, without realizing that the current USA is nothing without its minorities. The nation is becoming completely stupid and there is no way back. To hell with this insane nation, they somehow expect other nations to invest in it when the US seriously offers nothing in return

Anyone who has lived in any of the five eyes knows how white supremacy specifically Anglo chauvinism is core and central to the guiding belief of the anglosphere. This philosophy is transmitted to anglophone influenced cultures and societies which is why you have Iranian and Indians believing they are superior to Chinese because of Anglo propaganda.

effectively we don’t need to speculate on a world where the third reich won because the British empire with all of its genocides and the American manifest destiny and economic hit men of the 20th c. Gave us a comprehensive world ruled by white supremacy. This is why chinas rise is so pivotal to securing the future of the human race as a spacefaring civilisation.

perhaps this will remind the Iranians which side they’re supposed to be on.
