News@lemmy.world•US Marine arrested on suspicion of murder after 'brutal and heinous' death in Japan, officials say
5·16 days agoWhat does this have to do with the US? You literally just claimed Japan has no responsibility to make amends for the war because:
the Japanese of imperial era have been dead and buried for over 80 years

The government has refused to apologize. Schools don’t say anything bad about imperial Japan. Every new years my local shrine hangs up the rising sun flag signed by all the local soldiers who were out commiting heinous acts in neighbouring countries. If you’ve ever visited Japan and stayed in an APA hotel, the owner is the Japanese equivalent of a Holocaust denier and has a book in the drawer of every room explaining Japan did nothing wrong. Even the Hiroshima peace museum starts its plea for pity with “somehow Japan found itself at war”. Not to mention government celebration of war criminals at Yasukuni.
Japan has a cultural problem acknowledging their wrongdoings during the war. Japanese people are now very pro-peace in general, but it’s a mistake to pretend the past can’t repeat if we don’t remember and understand it.

I’m in the mountains so the rain always has somewhere to go.

1·1 month agoThe alternative is that the few sunny days we’ve had have topped out at 39 degrees.
That’s way hotter than it’s ever been in the past, and hot enough to kill all my vegetables without the rain.
I’ll take the rain.

3·3 months agoI’d argue that your view is the simplistic one.
Nobody is responsible except Putin. He’s like Santa Claus, delivering every bullet on the frontline himself in a single night.

4·3 months agoThis is completely false though.
Out of the three of us, the Russian rando is the only one that can realistically influence the Russian state unless you and I are willing to put our boots on and plan an invasion. He is part of the Russian polity.
Now Putin may rule through fear, but he still only rules with the consent of the average Russian rando. If enough of them decide that they’re no longer “non-political”, Putin will no longer rule and the war can end. Frankly, that’s the only way this war is going to end. So this is entirely their responsibility.
With that in mind, the question I raised above still stands, how many Ukrainians need to die to avoid hurting or inconveniencing the average Russian rando? Can you answer that?

10·3 months agoTo continue on your train of thought, how many Ukrainian children should die to save the life of a Russian child?
Russian parents can decide to end the war today. Ukrainian parents cannot.

3·4 months agoAh my bad! Thanks for correcting me.
The impartiality of justice is important but only when it’s actually “just”. In this case the system is protecting an immorality (supporting Russia’s war in Ukraine). This means the system needs to be corrected, until then the courts will continue to work against good.

6·4 months agoThe CDU is completely owned by Russian money. Schröder laid the foundations for North Stream when he was Chancellor and then immediately joined the board of Gazprom after retiring.
Can’t even make up corruption that blatant.
