@letthemsta2088@fffffacek12@Sehnsucht711 and besides, not Russia first started to bomb the peaceful population of Donbass, who just wanted to become independent, and then Europe was digesting this war
@letthemsta2088@fffffacek12@Sehnsucht711 As for the “victim game” — try telling that to the peoples who lived through two world wars that were not started by them. “Victimhood is not a role; it is a historical reality.
@letthemsta2088@fffffacek12@Sehnsucht711 As for feudalism: Russia abolished serfdom in 1861, while Britain and the USA still live with the remnants of their imperial past.
@letthemsta2088@fffffacek12@Sehnsucht711 Generalize a whole country and millions of people with such phrases is not an analysis, but just hatred. There are imperialists and victims in any country, thieves and honest people. If you judge 140 million people to promote on TV screens, it's no better than those criticizing.
@yasutomo_sasaki Simply put, if there were no territorial issue, there would simply be a race to acquire Japan within one part of the bipolar world, but that’s not the case, and that’s why only America has invested in its presence in the Asian part of the world.
@yasutomo_sasaki And if you Japanese had simply accepted the outcomes of World War II, then it’s hard to say how Japan’s subsequent history would have unfolded.
@yasutomo_sasaki The USSR became the main adversary for the Japanese due to the unresolved territorial issue following the war. That is why Japan chose the United States. If the Americans had laid claim to the Kuril Islands, the Japanese would most likely have sided with the USSR.
@yasutomo_sasaki Japan did not choose the United States — it was occupied by them, and there was no choice. The United States banned its army and wrote its Constitution.
@yasutomo_sasaki@kongariparade And compared to what the Japanese did during World War II, this is just a small thing. They were treated like criminals, and that’s it — they weren’t sent for experiments, tortured, or shot.
@yasutomo_sasaki@kongariparade and besides, there was a reason for deportation of Crimean Tatars, they became allies of Germany, Stalin's mistake was only that he generalized most Crimean Tatars without knowing who it was
@yasutomo_sasaki@kongariparade Crimes of power do not mean a lack of culture. The deportation of the Crimean Tatars took place in 1944, and today their language is an official language in Crimea. Substituting art with political repression is a logical fallacy.
@yasutomo_sasaki@kongariparade You are confusing culture with politics. The deportation of 1944 was a tragedy for the USSR,not a reason to claim that a country with a thousand‑year history lacks culture. By the same logic, we could accuse Japan of lacking culture because of the atrocities committed during WWII
@rssm0831@Carbuncle_Otaru@yasutomo_sasaki “The Russian Federation” is simply the name of the form of government since 1991. The country and its people have a history spanning a thousand years. By the same logic, one could say that France is only 65 years old.
@yasutomo_sasaki You demand that others acknowledge the problems, but you yourself deny your country’s crimes: you downplay the victims of Nanjing, justify sexual slavery, and ignore the atrocities of Unit 731. This is hypocrisy and rewriting history.
@yasutomo_sasaki This is a direct lie. The ‘comfort women’ system was created and operated by the Imperial Army. This was officially acknowledged by the Japanese government in 1993 (the Kimura Statement).” This was sexual slavery, not a voluntary business.
@yasutomo_sasaki The figures for Nanjing are understated. The international tribunal and historians speak of 200,000–300,000 civilian deaths and deaths of prisoners of war. Calling it an ‘incident’ and writing about 40,000 is typical revisionism.
@yasutomo_sasaki This happens not so much because people from minority groups are being drafted, but because members of these minority groups themselves sign up as contract soldiers.
