No one in the States genuinely learns anything about the Second Sino-Japanese war, their only knowledge of the Pacific Theater is just “They did Pearl Harbor so we nuked them haha mushroom cloud funny”
Say what you want, but American Propoganda is terrifyingly good. Made Americans think that nuking innocent people was good and didnt even have to show the true evils of the regime to them. Americans just think “Nukes Good, dont know why, just good.”
It’s only terrifyingly good because American children are deliberately trained to be class-unconscious and as stupid as possible while not damaging the economy, only that this worked so well on the older generations that by this point it’s instinctive and unconscious
Also, no one in the States can genuinely think of why Japan was bad other than Pearl Harbor. 5% of the time, you run into a relative “intellectual” who knows about the Nanking Massacre but that’s about it
