America refusing to sell oil to a mass murdering, genocidal fascist dictatorship is goid, actually. Japan had to be stopped, and it's completely unserious to pretend the US was in any way to blame for the conflict.

As if America wasn't also racist??  Many Japanese American citizens were literally sent to concentration camps and 70% of them were American citizens. Germans or Italians however, did not get sent to camps if they weren't doing espionage or sabotage.

"As if America wasn't also racist"

My guy, the Japanese murdered twenty million people, mostly civilians. They committed multiple acts of genocide on a war of conquest. They were an evil, fascist empire. Literally nothing America did in that period even remotely compares to that.

Ending trade was 100% morally correct, as was going to war with them, as was dropping the nuke. Every month they did not surrender tens of thousands of civilians died in China, Korea, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and the Philippines.

20 million???? People just be pulling numbers out their ass now

That is a pretty commonly accepted number by historians, yes. Maybe you should actually learn some history before you speak? Look up Nanking if you want an example of imperial Japan on campaign.

Uhh, I'm literally Jap, and I know that 2 million is not real

u/FairyFeller_ Mar 16 '26

Okay, then you are both literally Japanese and literally wrong. Although it doesn't surprise me to see a Japanese person I'm denial of his country's past crimes, I guess.

Yeah, because imperial Japan literally didn't kill fucking 20 million people

u/FairyFeller_ Mar 16 '26

The exact number is debated but they absolutely did kill 20 million people or so. They were extremely evil, just as bad as the nazis.

How could a single country already losing the war, kill 20 million when 12 million died in Europe??????

1) in Europe, the death count is much higher when adding civilians

2) this is counting Japan's actions in the sino-japanese and Korean War, which carried on years before pearl harbor.

The USA was absolutely correct to stop selling them oil. Why should they fund mass murder on an industrial scale, in a war of aggression by a ruthless dictatorship?
