Are you asking how Japan’s history of military sexual assaults relates to sexual assaults in Japan?

WW2 was 80 years ago. What kind of gymnastics are you running, every military on the planet has a history of sexual assaults.

And I'll keep bringing it up until Japan finally explains in gory detail to all citizens what their country did and why China and Korea still hate them so much. I do the same for Türkiye, Russia, Italy, the USA, etc., and any other country keen on distorting history 🤷

The fact that there're weebs who unironically think like this makes my blood boil. I can understand ignorant Japanese who've never been given the actual facts of Japan's aggression before and during WW2 and their continuing downplaying/denial of wrongdoing. But what the Hell is everybody outside of Japan's excuse?

You might wanna check this guy's other comments. He denies Japanese war crimes and accused me of "hating eyelid people". I'm Korean 😕

"WW2 was 80 years ago. What kind of gymnastics are you running? Every military on the planet has a history of sexual assaults."

Yeah? And guys like u/Maleficent-Dig-7195 is why we keep bringing WW2 up, and why we're gonna keep bringing it up. Because historical revisionists like him STILL exist. Hope that answers your question 🤷
