Sir, this is c/memes
Is this better?
Sure, and I love the great memes that get posted here. But this one distorts history beyond all measure. Japanese militarism in government circles hasn't gone anywhere, and neither has the desire for revenge. However, the American dropping of atomic bombs on civilians is not a joke either, but an unconcealed genocide. A demonstration of force, first of all, to intimidate opponents from the socialist camp.
It's a complex situation in Asia. It's not only Japan that is wary of China. The rest of the region that share a border with China, and there are many of them including my country, are constantly having border disputes with China. As with any country, Japan has its share of loud conservatives that like similar conservative things, and if there's anything conservatives are good at (and the left is ridiculously bad at), it's getting into government positions.
why are you talking about china? this is about the war crimes committed throughout asia by japan, and how is conveniently absent from a likely American made meme
The links were China related, and also, except for a few racists, there hasn't been a rift between Japan and the West for a while now.
