There are dozens of mainstream anime with guys/girls in Nazi-adjacent if not full blown Nazi uniforms, like FMA is one they just painted blue. They lack any true guilt over WW2, which is why they barely acknowledge their own horrific shit done during it, so they can lust over the uniforms openly unlike the rest of the world who just pretends they don't.
If it took until today for you to learn this, that's not surprising for a newfag.
I've commented on this before. It's interesting, but it's absolutely a net positive, their attitude. No matter how you feel about WW2, on the scale of "Nazis were totally based" to "War crimes are bad and war is Hell, and Nazis committed a bunch of atrocities" (both are true to some extent, in my opinion; both sides committed atrocities, and both sides had some good points as well)...the Japanese response of "fuck it, who cares," has been shown to be much healthier than the German response of repression and denial.
Germany with all their guilt and clamp down on free expression is more likely to go genocidal again than the Japanese are. For all the talk of "never again," and "we must learn from history," they're going down the path of being the assholes yet again.
You can't sacrifice your own culture over guilt for outsiders. That's how you get into this mess in the first place. First rule of government is, it has to be in the benefit of the nation's people. Japan is, while not perfect by any means, more in line with that than Germany is.
Japan did terrible shit, but continuing to try and be Japanese was the correct answer, as opposed to what the remnants of Germany did.
Again, don't care if you anyone loves or hates the Nazis; Japan's take is culturally healthier and, even if it may look less "moral" in the short term, will likely have better and more moral results in the long term anyway. Pro tip: Don't destroy your own culture, society, and civilization. Even if you commit evil at one point.
I agree entirely. I think at a time much closer to the incidents you could make claim that the full denial was the wrong way, when the literal victims could look into the eyes of the literal perpetrators. That's something you can put the "bad men" on trial for and decide if you think they deserve to be punished for their actions by a jury of their peers or superior officers in the military (in theory, we know it wouldn't be so clean).
But now its meaningless guilt slinging to be exploited for manipulation. And anyone trying to do anything on that branch is not to be trusted in their intentions.
And the current trajectory of both nations is, as you said, showing the Jap way to be far superior in terms of end result. Maybe our bloodlust for justice and morality might want some of those aforementioned literal perpetrators to suffer, but if the cost of that is the Germany of today then it is not worth it.
awwww whats that? Is that you getting upset that Japan doesn't guilt itself over ww2 or condemn the nazis? Your passive aggressiveness is so easy to see through. And now you are getting angry with me for making this post jewfag just like you always get angry whenever i talk about jews or nazis too much for your taste?
You call me newfag ,but your whole vendetta against me started because you were upset over 2 things. Me gatekeeping anime and me talking too much about jews.
No I was stating a fact. They feel little remorse over WW2 and the legitimate terrible things we have on record that they themselves did to the nations they were at war with. And if they won't even feel bad about things they actually feel responsible for, they will absolutely not feel bad for what someone else did on the other side of the globe.
I said nothing to condemn this point of view, and I'd say not bending the knee to Western faggots demanding you apologize for your ancestors actions is a good thing in 90% of cases, but that is how these things come about through historical roots. The fact that basic neutral points are somehow offensive to you, speaks to how fragile your worldview is and how much you clamor to be a victim of someone trying to oppose you.
Also, good job proving once again how much the newfag thing bothers you. Almost like its true, as shown by the fact that it took until today for you to notice how common Hugo Boss uniforms are in Japan. The strongest proponents of gatekeeprs are often the recent converts trying to pull up the ladder and pretend they fit in.
Like i said, you are still crying about them not feeling guilt over ww2. This combined with your whining over me talking about jews makes it obvious you are a jewfag.
Hugo boss uniforms are not common in Japan you fucking lying douche. There are uniforms that are BASED on it but they very rarely ever directly recreate a nazi uniform one to one.
I mean everyone did terrible things in WW2 and, yes, that includes the Nazis and the Japanese. He wasn't saying anyone had to feel guilty over it, though.
Allies and Axis both committed numerous crimes against humanity.
Said nothing of the sort, I said they didn't and didn't say anything about that being a bad thing. They, in fact, have no reason to feel bad about anything Nazi related as they had nothing to do with whatever crimes the Nazis might or might not have committed, so why would they?
And they did do terrible things on their own front. We have the literal records of it in exchange for their protection in court and them owning to doing it, which is miles more evidence than the Holohoax has. They did horrific things to American soldiers and those boys came home to tell us. It was war, and the Japs were insane during it. Its why we had to go above and beyond in response to them by fire bombing and then nuking them. However they've given no indication since then of that ever being on their mind again, and they've been probably our greatest allies since, so they've more than made up for whatever they did and don't deserve anything but praise.
I know these kinds of basic nuance are hard for your tiny little brain to handle, but try to stop your "wahhhh he is trying to make me stop sperging, he must be a Jew!" for 10 seconds to process it.
Really ? that's your arguement now? Just like the Libshit arguement of "if you are anti gay you must be gay". Your arguements are getting more and more pathetic.
Keep trying to justify the fact that you are a tourist, that doesn't support gatekeeping hobbies, because the gate is meant to keep people like you out . The only people who are against gatekeeping in any scenario is the people whom the gate is meant to keep out
That's really funny, considering in your other response you literally went with "you criticize me for talking about jews (in a retarded manner), so you must be a jewfag!"
Left hand can't keep up with what the right hand is doing huh?
I don't think that's what he was saying. Take a step back.
