    Guys, I’m starting to think elevating people just because your political opponents disliked them a decade ago on the internet is not a good strategy for building political movements.

      Fun fact: I was taught that Japan only targeted the United States in WW2

      I didn't think that sounded right, so I did my own research and stopped being ignorant

      Apparently it's just a lib thing to show your whole ass to everyone as often as you can

      just from her last name, she is of Chinese decent. Which makes it more shocking that she has no clue about the atrocities committed by Japan agaisnt China during WWII. It's like a Jewish person not knowing anying about Nazi Germany.

    Japan has always been a thorn on the side of China. The Kingdom of Wa's pirates would raid both Korean and Chinese coasts. The time when Japan and China had better relations was during Himiko's reign. That was the time when they would send most delegations to China. Japan attempted to invade China first, during the Tokugawa Shogunate, back in the 1600s. Then we fast forward to WW2, and Japan killed over 22m people in China. And I am obligated to say, that Japan owes much of its culture to China. If anything, Japan should be seen as a rude and ungrateful little brother, and nothing else. There have always been tensions, and all have come from the Japanese isles.
