"It's up for debate" you say, followed by declaring that the factors justifying your perspective as inherently true. 10/10
I also do quite like this anti-intellectual condescension. It's a good change of pace from the intellectual version.
I do always love going back to work after posting here, I can always trust that I'll come back to everyone sucking each other off.
It's very Greco-Roman of you all. Western civ will live on.
I think you placed far too much faith in intellectuals. I've learned that they're often not quite as on point as they like to think they are.
And no one is agreeing with you Realm because you're just blatantly wrong. On like everything. You take half truths and try to spin a narrative when even a cursory look at a history book would dispel your argument. I don't know if this is intentional or if you really don't know your History. Consider this is educating you.
Especially as your coming at a guy who who has written papers on the very subject and has studied world war 2 extensively. I've also had relatives on both sides of that war.
Yes, you just heard me correctly. I have Japanese ancestry. You wouldn't know it from looking at me, but my maternal Grandmother is from Japan. She lost a Brother, an uncle and her father to the war. And the stories she told me about life in Imperial Japan are not pleasant.
As for the rest of your guttersnipe, take it somewhere else. If you want to debate the war then by all means create a thread and I'll meet you there. But we are getting off topic and I am partially to blame, so I will drop the argument here.
Edit: seems that was already handled.
