    it’s almost kind of impressive how the US “education” system managed to get the people in that thread to trot out their defences of probably the worst war crime in the history of humanity so confidently, when even yank military leaders at the time thought using the nukes was somewhere between “unnecessary” and “unforgivable”.

    and I bet they would all lose their shit if someone said they might have been propagandized in their schools…

    anyway, sure this kind of discourse is sad and disturbing to see on reddit, but I feel worse seeing it on lemmy, e.g. https://lemm.ee/comment/3384957
