Once the axis powers fell how the fuck would Japan have “continued to wage war”. I’m not an expert by any means but that line seems to only fly if you rely on the same chud logic about all west Asians being terrorists and zealots. Like they’re off on an island bro were they just going to suicide their whole country into california???
It was one hundred percent chud logic about all west asians being terrorists and zealots. People in that class acted like IJA soldiers were robots who would commit suicide if they sneezed.
We had the Japanese home islands completely blockaded. Their greatest battleship was sunk during a Kamikaze attack on that blockading armada. They were out of options, they were out of oil, they were out of manufacturing. It was just a matter of time, but the US didn’t want the Soviets getting involved so we incinerated tens of thousands of civilians and poisoned a whole generation more to demonstrate the girth of our Armydick.
the surrender of Japan had much more to do with USSR’s invasion of Manchuria & Korean peninsula
Japan’s fascist imperialist extraction of raw materials & industrial capacity from Korea & Manchuria was the only thing keeping them afloat… and once USSR broke the 1941 Soviet-Japanese neutrality agreement in early August 1945, the Japanese had no bargaining chip & had to sue for peace with the US
Reading about the Soviet invasion of Manchuria is breathtaking. They absolutely steamrolled them. The Red Army in 1945 was an absolute beast. RIP.
