He's the posterboy of what your average japs thinks of the american. American could easily ask for war reparation, enslaving the japs (that's what the japs really thought when they've lost, as per the propaganda that was played out in newpapers and radio prior to their defeat) and absorbing japan as the 49th state (Alaska and Hawaii became full state in 1950s), but the american didn't.

Instead the american (through SCAP, aka Macarthur), forgave the war reparation (we actually gave resource for them to rebuild), reforming the land laws and economies (dismantling land lords and zaibatsus), reforming the education and emancipation of women.

We actually did that because we need a strong ally to counter-balance the chinks and soviets, but they took them as a benevolent act from superior race, so we kinda went on with it

And dont forget that MacArthur forgave all war-criminals, so the Japs were even protected from any sort of post-war justice, unlike the Germans, where the Soviet, Polish and Jewish persecutors have pressed for the Nurnberg tials the most.

If the Americans were the only ones who occupied Germany, the German people would still worship Hitler and Himmler to this day.

General Mac Daddy was probably the worst general of WWII. He left like a little bitch in the Philippines causing the force there to be in jap prison camps until the japs got nuked. He also caused what is now known as the Korean DMZ because he didn't listen to his superiors and went past the point that he was told to go, which caused the Chinese involvement in backing North Korea into a stalemate. Horrible general in general.
>>
>>134952934
What implications? It is pretty much clear that the US wasnt interested in persecuting all these "useful" warcriminals of both Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan, as their war-effort showed us that they were very capable people in building up both countries as anti-communist bullwarks. Hanging Tojo and Göring, but a light slap on the wrist for everyone else and quick reinstallation into the post-war goverment was deemed to be the best course of action to get both countries back in line for the Cold War.

Case in point:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shir%C5%8D_Ishii

This man did absolutely horrible human experimentations not only on Chinese, Koreans and Russians, but also on US POWs (USAF pilots who were shot down over China). And he was protected by MacArthur after war in exchange for the results of his human experimentations and further cooperation with US bio-weapon research.

Fun facts I learned from listening to random radio shows about nippon back then:
The emperor at the time openly surrendered and the japanese people obeyed. In germany, apparently there were still holdout forces active for up to three months that Churchill suppressed the media on speaking about.

Also, japan was bombing the US using balloons that they figured out how to have them fly all the way over the continental US. Few actually made it, few actually killed people, and there's still bombs on US soil from WW2 unaccounted for that came on balloon.
Cultural exchange if you will.
The reason why they went to such lengths was that they were mad about the firebombings. Incidentally one of the reasons used to use the nukes was that they were considered more humane than the firebombings.

They went to such lengths because they had no other way of attacking the US mainland
>>

>Incidentally one of the reasons used to use the nukes was that they were considered more humane than the firebombings.
If you mean the nuklear bombs, they were used because USA wanted to test them. Not because it was necessary.

The USA was also never tried for their war crimes.
>>
>>134955104
USA wanted to test them, wanted a decisive show of force so the USSR didn't annex Japan, and also just wanted the fucking crazy Japs to surrender already

If you mean that invasion is a viable alternative, so that nukes are necessary, then I'm going to have to disagree.

Japan was aware they already lost the war and didn't see any other choice but surrender, also if they wouldn't have intended to surrender, the nukes wouldn't have changed their intent.
>implying jap military cares whether civilians burn
>>
>>134955466
exactly
Basically, nukes are useless, barring nuclear winter. Which is of course why they developed small ones for easy use.
>>
>>134955466
Firebombing was as devastating as the nukes. Soviets declaring war was a bigger factor for unconditional surrender.

>>
>>134955578
Then why were they even trying a coup on the emperor by pro war faction when they were discussing surrender?

They surrendered because they believed the US had more nukes, not just 2.

The nuclear attack was never a question of who is "right", it was just the less of many great evils. People dying horrible is always bad.

If the US had land invaded, hundreds of thousands would have potentially died and the soviets would have invaded too, and we'd have a second Korea and probably another world war because unlike Korea, the Serbia of Asia, Japan is a relevant nation with actual resources.

If I recall, the Soviets tried to invade some of the northern smaller islands (Kuril Islands) and got creamed.

The only reason why they took them was because the garrison received the Emperor's orders to surrender. Until after WWII, the Soviet Fleet in the Pacific was rather lacking and would have problems supporting a land invasion, even with all the good Japanese units down south.

The whole thing is Japan wouldn't surrender unconditionally, when we dropped the nukes it pushed them over the edge and made them surrender, thus eliminating the need for the Slavic liberation army to invade like they did in Germany, where Germany refused to surrender at all.

Animation wise, western studios had more resource and talents than japan.

But it's not about that, it's about what makes anime, anime. You could make a copycat of an anime and your average /a/utist could still tell that it's not an anime because the person behind it doesn't have a clue about the philosophy behind it.

Yup. There's a rumor that the whole diet (and the emperor himself) saw the big-ass flash up in the horizon and Tokyo would be the next place the yanks will hit.

I read somewhere that the reason the Japanese didn't want to surrender was because the position of the Emperor after the war wasn't guaranteed. Even though the Americans were willing to keep him around as a figure head before they dropped the atomic bombs. After that the Americans communicated that they would leave him in power and the Japanese command accepted the terms.

Basically the atomic bombs would of been unnecessary over a small diplomatic communication. I really need to find that article and reread it, it was pretty good.

That isn't a fucking point, that's two simple statements. Exactly the same as just stating that most walls are made out of bricks and apples are a fruit. You need to give something to link both of those simple statements together to make a point. If he had given an actual argument as to why the "rise of feminism" in Japan (pffft, tell that to the 30-fucking-% of young female residents of Tokyo who went on record to say that their only aspiration is to be submissive housewives, sauce: http://www.japantoday.com/category/national/view/1-in-3-japanese-women-want-to-be-housewives-poll) could be the cause of population decline, I could responded with an argument to make a counter-point. As it stands now, all I can do is point out how stupid I think his opinion is.

Why is it ridiculous to think feminism is rising? 100 years ago maybe 100% of women in Japan only aspired to be housewives. Now it's 30%, that doesn't sound like a rise to you? Men are angry that women form weekend cycling groups over there. This is a big ass deal to them. But you probably have a faggy liberal filter over your eyes and can't get over their values if women can't walk around naked without being raped.

That is a stupid meme used by liberal arts majors (a.k.a women and tumblr) that took Stats 1 and think they are some authority on the philosophy of science or/and statistics. Fucking hell. The thing that grinds my gears the most is how its used to dismissed really well done studies because it doesn't fit their SJW agenda.

America needed Japan to surrender so that they could occupy it and use their own army as a deterrence against the soviets. Russia still wanted to invade it, but they didn't want to start another war with one of their allies just for one island. The nukes also made the threat that, if Japan didn't surrender, America would make sure that there'd be nothing left for Russia to invade, since occupying fallout zones is impossible.

People make a big hullaballoo about the nukes being the cause of the surrender, but another big thing was Russia encroaching on their colonial territories and their top command being forced to choose between American occupation or soviet conquest. They chose the lesser of 2 evils.

Feminism is on the rise while the Japanese birth rate is declining therefore feminism is the cause of the Japan's declining birth rate is not a really well done study.

It is in fact a perfect example of correlation not proving causation.

Also correlation=/=causation is only a meme because retards keep trying to equate correlation with causation.
>>
>>134958979
It's true, though. Inductive reasoning is not conclusive, nor a basis to claim something is factually true. Philosphy of science has tread this ground numerous times, which is why theories very publicly acknowledge that they apply inference to the best explanation to make conclusions and not simply deductive logic.

You may want to brush up on your Hume if this is still somehow an issue for you. Inferring cause from correlation is very weak reasoning and correlation itself is not compelling evidence of cause. Studies that establish correlation do so to show that there is a substantive relationship between 2 things that warrants further study, it's entirely erroneous to claim that this relationship is conclusively causal just on the basis of correlating statistics.

It's not 'dismissing a study.' It's simply recognizing the nature of the relationship revealed by that study and recognizing the limitations with regards to what conclusions can be drawn from them.

No, the way the general public uses it is to completely dismiss that the correlation is there in the first place. It's a cop-out to try to ignore relationships that don't fit their world view without criticizing the data or the methodology because they're simply unable to do so.

>>134959677
Yet at the opposite side of the spectrum you have people who assume thatcorrelation=casuation.

Well that's obviously rather silly. If a study clearly shows correlation, then it's hard to say "there is no correlation because...?"

Although, to be completely fair, not all studies are valid in their methodology, nor are their results accurate. Studies, even ethically approved professional ones, are often tinged with bias from their conductors and motivated by agenda, or simply lack a large enough sample size to substantiate the generalized conclusion that the conclusion attempts to extrapolate from the results. A healthy amount of skepticism towards studies is appropriate because blind faith in statistics is dangerously hierophantic. Even granting that a correlation is valid, it could still not be a meaningful correlation. I could put forward, for example, that my hair grows over time and the days get shorter over time over a test period of 6 months, starting from the end of the summer solstice. Those 2 things certainly correlate, but there's nothing meaningful in that correlation. Simply establishing that a correlation exists doesn't mean anything in and of itself without followup studies to further expand upon the relationship between those correlating things. A single chart or graph of statistics simply isn't enough information to contribute meaningfully towards a body of knowledge.

Except female "liberation" also accompanied widespread birth control and promiscuity which don't exactly make families.
Not to mention females entering the workforce and devaluing careers made families harder to start and provide for.

This shits true at my job, but they can't change at all once they got their way of doing something. The most the work at my job is repetitive and my job is to find ways to make it more efficient. When i started all the asians used to be able to produce more than anyone because they could work like robots not moving or talking or getting distracted for the full 8 hours. Since then I've made the process around 180% more efficient, but they refuse to change their ways, So now everyone else can do the same amount as them or more while actually being able to enjoy their job. talking, listening to music and such, and the asians keep doing the job the old way. If i make the process any more efficient we will probably just lay off all of the asians who refuse to change, which will be nice since i can barely communicate directly with them because their english is so bad

Japs were almost taken over by the soviets.

If it weren't for the nukes, they would have invaded and subsequently destroyed japanese culture in order to assimilate them into communism.

McArthur was more of a weeaboo than any of you will ever be. He literally rebuilt japan and gave it what it needed to become attached to America like a child to family with free trade especially.

The United States can be thanked in this extent for Anime. The japanese still had their old culture of being perverted and making doujin, though this usually was limited to doujin about political figures. With the cultural exposure in America's client state setup Japan came to appreciate our moving drawings and combined them with the previously mentioned perversions and talent for certain art styles to make a truly American glory.

God Bless America and Anime.

That's because we have an infrastructure designed for a certain population (not to mention that we have to compete with other countries economically) and because the native population declines, the fucking idiots/villains in government think the solution to this is not reworking the infrastructure or giving incentives to start families or even scaling back the production and consumption but rather to bring in third worlders to replace them
