>>532791675Europeans constantly fought wars with each other trying to contain other empires imperial expansion.
>>532791675They invited you to the League of Nations what more do you want? Shitskins are always complaining but buts not white peoples fault they lose
>>532791675Dumb thread. Everyone was fine with it when the japs were helping us fuck shit up during WW1 then they swapped sides so got nukedFAFO
WHITE PIGU
NIPPON WON
YOU DID PEARL HARBOR
>>532791675Late to the game.Didn't help their prime target for imperial territory was China, which was heavy British focused
>>532791675You had an empire under the Meiji. You were the darling of the international community at the time. Then a few minor setbacks and you chimped out and raped the entire continent. You were gonna collectively suicide your own race just to roll the dice that the gaijin would lose interest in you long enough that you could chimp out again. The atomic bomb ironically saved you from yourselves. The honorabu thing to do right now is say "Thank u, yankee doodle GI!"
FOREIGNERS OUT
>>532791675Late to the same game I would sayI once read a part of some old French captains journal from the 1700s and the guy was going off about how everywhere they go the British are hanging out dogging them
>>532792211shut it crusader, devil's kin
You have no room to talk abou imperialism. Japan has proven to be too weak to resist Western influence and instead of being Asia's shield against westerners happily absorbed everything foreign, gutted their own culture to make room for it and then went on a killing spree across their still traditionally Asian neighbours just to prove to the West that they are just like Europeans. Then after being defeated both in China and in their homeland, they simply gave up and doubled down on serving foreigners and hating all their racial kin in Asia. I do not hate Japan, but their history since the start of the XXth century has been nothing but shameful wars samurai would consider unworthy, destroying their culture to please the West, unwarranted massacres and military defeats. At this point they are like Israel of Asia and unless they do something about it, they do not deserve any respect as a country. Your samurai class would have been disappointed, but you slaughtered them all just to please Westerners. Shame on you, Japan!
>>532792353We Japan literally destroyed your pride and army and GOT VICTORY, THO?
japans colonialism and imperialism wasn't funded by rothchild central banksjust so everyone knows
>>532792422Eego no sensei had too much sake. Dame da.
>>532791675None of posters in this thread is japanese
>>532791675They lesser culture.
>>532792422During the liberation of Manchuria for every Russian 70 Japanese died or surrendered. That is probably the most humiliating defeat in human history. Not to mention that the entire operation was done in less than two weeks. Again, you have no room to talk about pride, strength or honour. All of these concepts are foreign to you now, you have abandoned them with the restoration of Meiji, when you sold your culture and soul for western toys. Since then every single war you fought was conducted in the scummiest most dishonourable way and it ended up hitting you back in the face. Your ancestors would have spat on you if they saw your wars against China and Korea. And rightfully so, unlike you they understood what fighting with honour means. You have forgotten that when you murdered your entire samurai class just to be more like the West.
>>532791675The difference here is that you lost the war and therefore were in the wrong the whole time. There are no standards but double standards, grow up and read up on elite theory. Sovereign is he who decides and who interprets, and morality is downstream from power
>>532791675>You want your race to win and others to lose? How hypocritical.
>>532792888>spiritually jewishthe world will eventually correct itselfevery empire had a 250 year lifespan
>>532792710>Your ancestors would have spat on you if they saw your wars against China and Korea.You learned Japanese history from anime and movies, didn't you?
>>532792710>murdered your entire samurai classqrd? I thought they just sort of faded into obscurity.
>>532791675After WW2, the strong races lost the power to subjugate the weaker races, so instead of letting themselves get kicked out completely, the strongest (US) decided to pretend to fight for the rights of the weak in exchange for favourable deals.
>>532792353>Implying that the Russians are anything but evil incarnateShiggy
>>532792332And this is why you eat beef, not fish.Sorry bout that, stick man.
>>532791675Japan was butthurt that after winning the 1904 war and WWI that they would be accepted by Europeans as a fellow power but no they were still viewed as yellow monkeys.In their rage they became deeply revanchists and believed if Japan can't be a strong empire then neither can Europeans in the Pacific, their goal was decolonisation and liberation of Asia from euro colonialism but somehow still started a gigantic war with the biggest Asian nation.Japan were retarded niggers and got beat in their place where they belong.Them being forced in that war is stupid revisionist nonsense.
>>532793832How to spot a jew:-whining about a country like this when a coherent statement is appropriate-stale 4chan memes
>>532791675He was joking, he pulled the same shit with Abe
>>532791675It was just bad timing on your end. Same for Germany unfortunately.At that point we had all collectively decided that having big empires and subjugating natives was no longer cool and fashionable so we told each other to stop it.Had you done it 100 years earlier we'd all have though your efforts were impressive.
>>532794304Peak cope>We actually wanted to lose our colonies Reality was after USA and Soviets won the war and became superpowers they created and funded every anti colonial terror group around the world and the euro empires were exhausted and weak and couldn't do shit against what the superpowers wanted.Colonies couldn't be restored without genocide of the natives who breathed revolutionary spirits.
>>532793684They did not physically destroy them, although they did create conditions that would make them impossible to continue existing and also removed all their priviliges. At the end of the day they were even prohibited from carrying their swords, which was utter humiliation for any samurai. Also they did put down a few samurai rebellions and wiped out a lot of them in the process. But of course this is no entirely their fault - after all Japan did have to standartize their army to stand more or less equally with the colonial powers of that time. Still the way they handled the samurai, the heart of their nation, was pretty cruel and devastating to their culture.
>>532791675We tried to become a colonial empire as well. The anglojews tried to stop us right away and started crying about muh poor Ethiopia.
>>532791727jews profited a lot from that
>>532796048Why are you writing these Last Samurai inspired essays on honorabu warriors in current year? It is beneath remedial at this point. The Edo samurai meme has been a joke even in western historiography for decades at this point. The guy who seal clubs his own social system with foreign tech and genocides across Asia is the real samurai and all the things you lament were always the case. You romanticize a nostalgia fueled meme.
>>532791675>somehow Pearl Harbor is treated like the beginning of the story? Was Japan uniquely evilMost iconic surprise attack of all time, #2 not even close. Come on now. Own that title, it's cool as fuc and Trump meant it as a backhanded compliment.As for "uniquely evil" yeah nobody else was boiling POWs alive and cannibalizing on a large scale in WW2 besides you
>>532796173Those "Jews" allowed you to have an empire in the first place but it was not enough for tortellini he HAD to expand no matter the costs and with no economy/industry to back the expansion up all because muuh neo Roman empire.If not for the retarded Ethiopian invasion there would be no sanctions from frogs and angloids and you would be not forced to be of the loser side with Hitler.He could have sit it all out like Spain did but noooo.
>>532797043It was no surprise attack and if not for the Americans refusal to hear the japsoid Ambassador who wanted to give a declaration of war on time before the attack it would be war like usual but USA trickery made this attack out to be some evil surprise attack to gather civilian support.
>>532791675Yeah, but you touched our boats.
>>532791675The reason imperialism is fine is because when you do it successfully , you have all the power. Imperial is not fine when you fail, because you do not have the power to stop the criticism.Stop looking for morality in geopolitics, these aren't people with morals and principles. It's pure might = right.Japan lost, so they're the bad guys. Britain & France won, so we weren't. Up until we lost/gave away the power, now we're the baddies again.
