The “Japan liberated Asia” lie is one of the most disgusting pieces of imperial propaganda still alive today.
Japan did not “liberate” Asia.
It invaded.
It massacred.
It colonized.
It enslaved.
It raped.
It burned.
It looted.
It experimented on human beings,
and called it “co-prosperity.”
These photos are not Chinese “anti-Japanese propaganda.”
They are the historical record Japanese neo-fascists want buried.
Every time a Japanese fascist descendant says “we treated Asians equally,” Asia hears the same old imperial voice:
the murderer explaining why the victim should be grateful.
Asia does not hate fascist Japan because of propaganda.
Asia remembers fascist Japan because of graves.
Fascist Japan was not misunderstood.
Fascist Japan was defeated.
Fascist Japan was not the victim of history.
Fascist Japan was stopped by history.
