The Americans colonized executed people in the Philippines even though the Katipunan declares independence as they fought in the Philippine revolution against Spain. The Americans passed the Indian Removal Act which is to make Indians, sometimes force them at gunpoint, to move to federal territory west of the Mississippi river, killing thousands in the process due to starvation, etc. So, what is your point exactly? I can list more but I'm sure you get the idea.

Well... We have done some pretty bad stuff, but we made better decisions and changed that. Just saying, I don't really want to be Hitler for Halloween.

lmao no. We still have imperialism. After the 9/11 attacks, we invaded Sadam's crib instead of the people responsible for 9/11 to overthrow Sadam just for oil. We haven't change shit at all. Japan's armed forces fought mostly because they want to do it for the emperor and their country and not dishonor their family, with the Kamikaze pilots being the most dedicated in my opinion. They weren't even as racist towards Americans as Americans were towards the imperial Japanese. So, I see no comparison with Imperial Japanese and Hitler, unless Hitler is an imperialist, then there's that comparison. This is coming from a Filipino as well. But I guess my shit doesn't matter to ya, since history is written by the winners. lmao But for real, I think you should have the freedom to wear whatever you want.

Griss. The japs did terrible things in the 40s and you listed things that happened like 100 years earlier than that. Yeah we get it people are bad. But japs were terrible everything they did to the chinese and to war prisoners. stop trying to defend them so you can be the edgy kid

don't forget the Spanish-American war, or the many times the CIA intervened in stable Latin American countries to help put up brutal regimes that favored American interests, or that time the Marines helped plot and execute the overthrow of the independent Kingdom of Hawaii... America was founded by religious freaks, became independent under slave-owning hypocrites, and has since gotten steadily more assholey

I'm not saying they are good. I'm saying we are no better than the Japs. Even today, we are still doing bad things and that's something we need to look into as Americans.

And as for the Hitler statement, I don't think you should compare Japanese soldiers to Hitler. Hitler killed 11 million in total. Some soldier like infantrymen probably killed nothing to like a few people. And they did it because they were crazy motherfuckers who doesn't want to dishonor their country. The Imperial Japanese prime minister should be compared instead. If we invaded Sadam instead of the terrorists responsible for 9/11, would you blame the veterans who fought for our country or the president?

Im not really comparing it exactly, just saying that the japs were brutal people. They attacked us without reason besides think they could conquer us.

Have you seen the movie Unbroken just show you what they did to prisoners. Mutsuhiro Watanabe (The Bird) was an EVIL dude.

Not the Chinese obviously. We did it to Japanese people. For example, in Battle of Okinawa, US soldiers rape Japanese civilians. And we still kill innocents and torture prisoners today. Vietnam war is a good example. We did a lot of war crimes, such as using inhumane weapons, which is why it's so controversial today. My bad on the Hitler thing tho
