    In the expanded Korean War that resulted [because of China]

    this is just straight up genocide denial

    :powercry-2: "WAA WAA THE SCHEMING DUPLICITOUS ORIENTALS INTERRUPTED OUR GENOCIDE OF THE KOREAN PENINSULA AND PUSHED US BACK TO THE 38TH PARALLEL WAA."

    What special variety of terrible person do you have to be to blame China for "expanding" the Korean war? :visible-disgust:
