The atom bombs promised the Japanese military leadership a death without honour. There would be no glorious last stand; they would surrender, or we would exterminate them like vermin. Even to a death cult that did not believe in mercy for the conquered, this was enough to shake their resolve.
The people who pretend that Japan didn't need or deserve to be nuked are at best useful idiots parroting an enemy propagandist. The claim is just another facet of the Marxists' attempts to pretend the Westerner has no culture, no achievements and no moral mandate.
The lotus eaters were bringing up good points about the woke types and how they had a luxury belief system where it was only an ideology that could exist when they've got literally no other problems. This is very much the case with the normies who bullshit about stuff like the atomic bombs. I get the mentality to a degree, but when you understand how military fanaticism works in any capacity you realise you need the threat of extreme force or total destruction to make them think twice about attacking you.
This is why the west is handling Islam so badly for example, they don't understand the ideology is one of total domination. I don't think even the elites necessarily understand how a lot of the Muslim migrants they're importing view the west.
