      I remember this from the opening of Cod: WAW but it was listed as Indochina there.

      Least fucked up thing the Imperial Japanese did to the Chinese during WW2.

      And then there’s Americans who criticize China’s hatred for the Japanese. Then again, there’s Americans who adopted the Japanese view that mainland Chinese are “sub-human”.

    4. Understandable why China will not allow these kind of humiliation to happen again.

      They were something like 25-30% GDP of the world for close to 2000 years, just to have their people get drugged and killed like this for shits and giggles by UK and Japan.

      This is just plain gross. I know this kind of this happened in history, but it just makes me sad.

    6. Everyone focuses on all the shit Nazi Germany did and rightfully so, but Japan basically gets a pass on all the even crazier shit that they did

    7. I have a question, not sure if this is a dumb question or not so bare with me. But with all the atrocities committed by the Japanese during the 30’s and 40’s, why isn’t it well known to the general population? Furthermore, why is Japanese culture celebrated so much around the world? I would have thought the opposite would be the case.

      they would bury people up to their necks and then proceed to play kickball with the exposed heads.

      Are you just suffocating or youre breathing and swallowing dirt first. I hope the first one…

    10. What’s fucking terrible is still, even now, a large proportion of the Japanese population are willingly ignorant or just don’t care about the state’s actions in China.

      Germany confronted its demons and still shares a national guilt for what was perpetrated in their name.

      By contrast many Japanese think _they_ were the victims.

      I really don’t mean to be rude, I genuinely don’t understand it. How did this work? It seems like a bunch of soldiers shoveling in dirt one scoop at a time. Couldn’t the POWs pick their feet up whenever the dirt got above their ankles and keep themselves above ground? Like when sand starts covering your feet when standing at the edge of the shore. I know they couldn’t attempt to climb out or they’d just be pushed back in. I don’t understand how or why the POWs were stood there so patiently the entire time.
