Maybe because Japan wasnt the country with the crazy power hungry dictator who wanted to cleanse the world of non-caucasians? Sure they did some bad stuff, but so did the US. It was a war.
Edit: if it makes people feel better, I can rephrase it as "horrible warcrimes", I wasnt trying to play down ww2. Just trying to make the point that Germanys role was pretty prominent.
Worked pretty well for us Germans. Im sure in 80-100 years everyone will have forgotten about your egomaniac fascist starting a world war because there will be a new even worse fascist somewhere else.
Exactly. He gets a hardon thinking about the people who believed him, which is like .1%. The rest think hes a clown but that obviously doesnt change his behaviour.
From Europe here. This is my opinion but Im about 90% convonced this is how its gonna go down: The US is in the midst of a fascist takeover which will either lead to a revolution and tens of million deaths or with the US implementing fascism in every other (western) country, taking over those that resist by military force. There wont be a world war as there is no possible opposition. \
Its gonna be the hardest century humanity has faced in a long time, and US citizens still have the opportunity to sacrifice themselves for a better future but I doubt it will happen, we are looking at Cyberpunk 2077 soon. Most of us will get the Nazi Germany citizenship experience for some years and then the alternative ending where Germany won, except that H*tler cared for a big part of his people (white Germans) while the current US government will let all but 0.1% live in poverty and slavery with extra steps.
How was that an excuse? They tried to derive a possible reasning. Murderers often get cuffed and noone cares when theyre not goodlooking robin hoods. Noone is questioning the hipocrisy of the court and police but answering it with just as much hipocrisy doesnt help.
"its all bad in the long run" doesnt mean that one isnt significantly worse. If youre smoking, why not just do meth instead? Both will kill you.
I dont use sweeteners because of the aftertaste but I wont deny that sugar is much worse for my health. I dont consume enough to make it an actual problem though.
I donno, Ive had this kind of 'fight' with my now wife pretty often. Im 30 now. She would ignore me or 'make it obvious' shes angry and I would go about my day. I told her again and again that I wouldnt play these stupid games and eventually she started discussing with me when she has a problem with something. She got it from her mother, thats how they dealt with problems in her family.
This bs reasoning is literally "I dont vote because Im just one in a million and it doesnt make a difference"
