So, liberals’ justification is that bombing Japanese civilians was necessary to end the war by forcing Japanese leadership to reckon with the carnage. Utterly disgusting, but there it is.

What of the fact that 20% of the victims of the nuclear bombs were Koreans forcefully relocated to Japan? An ethnic minority, an enslaved group, who made up less than a fraction of a fraction of 1% of Japan’s total population, accounted for approximately 20% of the bomb’s victims! Japanese leadership didn’t give a single fuck about Koreans! Is the carnage still “rational”? Was it still justified?

The 80% non-Koreans didn’t deserve it either. Nobody deserves nuclear holocaust. It was not necessary to end the war. It was the U.S. flexing on the socialist bloc. My point is only to illustrate the amazing stupidity of imperial apologists’ rationalization of the bombings (as well as to inform any comrades reading about this forgotten tragedy visited upon the Korean people).
