There are loaded assumptions about hypotheticals in there. How do we know the Japanese wouldn't have surrendered if the bombs were dropped on two other targets? What if one was mostly just a show of force that could be seen in the distance from Tokyo?
I use to parrot the same talking points about the nuke -- it's what "the experts" have said since the bombs were dropped -- but as I've thought about it over the years, I don't buy it wholesale. Like all good deceit, there is certainly some truth to the traditional defense of bombing those cities, but it isn't the whole truth.
As for everyone was bombing cities, "everyone is doing it" isn't a good moral arguement. As Jesus said, the wide road most people travel actually leads to hell.
You can read the hundreds of books written on it, I'm not writing a doctoral thesis here for you on it. This has all been covered and you don't have to agree, but coming at it from where you are is very short sighted imo.
No, it's that im not retyping a thesis on my phone trying to explain shit to people.
Bunch of neonazi faggot leftists here though that constantly project and down vote anything that isn't "US and Israel bad" though. Sure activates the almonds.

You're not wrong there. This subject really is exposing certain segments of the right, in the same way Trump getting elected did.

Ah the classic "educate yourself, bigot" deflection. This subject really is one where conservatives become leftists!
