You're literally full of shit.

Chinese collaborators and Koreans weren't allowed to serve in the Kwantung army at any point in the war.

Chinese collaborators were all in the Manchukuo army which was an entirely seperate army.

The few Koreans in Manchukuo were also enlisted into the Manchukuo army.

In fact, Japan sent more Koreans to the front against AMERICA than against the Soviets.

Japan was literally scraping the bottom of the barrel and throwing Korean conscripts and Taiwanese conscripts into the Pacific front and the Philippines in 1944-1945.

Taiwanese president Lee Tenghui's brother died in Manila against the US.

It never conscripted Koreans or Taiwanese before 1944.

The Kwantung army was entirely Yamato Japanese, they even brought their own families to Manchukuo from Japan

Japan also separately settled over 1 million ethnic Yamato Japanese settlers in Manchukuo, seperate from the families of Kwantung army soldiers.

The Manchukuo army dissolved on contact in 1945 and didn't even try to engage the Soviets

The Soviets then crushed the entirely Japanese Kwantung army (over hundreds of thousands of troops)

Sorry to break your bubble, but the Soviets raped actual Japanese girls.

Japan settled one million Japanese civilian settlers in Manchukuo in addition to the million Kwantung army soldiers and their families.

The Soviets occupied South Sakhalin and Kuril islands and raped the Japanese girls there too.

South Sakhalin and Kurils were both part of Japan for decades by them with large Japanese settlement.

Soviets also occupied North Korea which had large Japanese settlement.

Soviets raped Japanese girls and Korean girls in North Korea in 1945.

347,000 to 376,000 Japanese were killed by Soviets in August storm

Soviet Union took control of 2.7 million Japanese in Manchukuo and North Korea during their August storm operation.

Japan had settled over 1 million Japanese civilian settler colonists in Manchukuo with their families, including wives and daughters.

Soviet troops set up rape quarters in barracks where hundreds of thousands of Japanese settlers girls, women and military nurses were gang raped for months until the Soviet army withdrew.

Japanese men were deported to Siberia as slave labour in gulags when the Soviet army withdrew.

The Soviets also invaded South Sakhalin and Kurile islands (Karafuto) where Yamato Japanese settler colonists also lived.

Japan mass settled ethnic Yamato Japanese in South Sakhalin, Kuril islands, Korea and Manchukuo.

The Soviets occupied South Sakhalin, North Korea, Kuril islands and Manchukuo.

The Kwantung army and the Japanese army in northern Korea and South Sakhalin and Kuril islands were all ethnically Yamato Japanese.

Japan threw teenage Korean and Taiwanese conscripts into the Philippines against America and gave them bamboo spears.
The Soviets openly massacred large numbers of Japanese men.

Chinese men openly joined Soviet soldiers in torturing and massacring Japanese male settlers and raping Japanese female settlers.

Soviets openly ran over Japanese men with their tank treads at Gegenmiao

Hundreds of thousands of Japanese male settlers died of massacres, torture, cold, disease and starvation as the Soviets and Chinese seized their homes, clothes and food.

The Soviets seized Japanese settler girls and nurses to be gang raped in their barracks for months, until the Soviet withdrawal and repatriation of the Japanese women.

Non-Japanese women who were assaulted weren't kidnapped and put into the barracks for months long gang rape sessions.

Chinese and Japanese were treated differently.

Some 500,000 Japanese female settlers were mass raped in Manchukuo for months.

490,00 sent back to Japan after the rapes.

10,000 Japanese girls taken as wives by Chinese men remained behind as zanryu fujin

Again you're full of shit.

Chinese and Koreans were banned from the Kwantung army

Chinese collaborators served in the Manchukuo army.

Manchukuo army is entirely separate from Kwantung

The Soviet Union captured and mass deported hundreds of thousands of ethnic Yamato Japanese to gulags dumbass

Most Koreans were literally sent to the Pacific front against America while only a few wealthy Korean officer collaborators with connections like Park Chunghee were enlisted in the Manchukuo army (not Kwantung army)

Park Chunghee deliberately got himself assigned to Manchukuo army in 1944 because there was no fighting there since 1942 and he didn't want to fight.

Park was a citizen of Japan unlike Koreans in Yambian, and even Korea citizens of Japan were BANNED from the Kwantung army.

Japanese Yamato soldiers desperately tried to get assigned to the Kwantung army while sending Koreans and Taiwanese to die in the Pacific, because there was zero fighting in Manchukuofron 1942-1944

In World War II in 1945, Japan left behind Japanese women in China called Zanryu Fujin (stranded war brides) who prostituted themselves and married Chinese men. The Japanese women eventually brought their Chinese fathered children to Japan after several decades.

https://apjjf.org/-Rowena-Ward/2374/article.html

http://japanfocus.org/-Rowena-Ward/2374/article.html


The Japanese men were killed or deported to Siberia by the Soviet Red Army. Japanese women were left behind for the Chinese men. Then the Chinese fathered children were returned to Japan decades later.

The Japanese zanryu fujin mention Soviet soldiers raping Japanese girls


I love how weebs try to pretend Japanese civilians escaped rape in WW2.

The dumbass Japanese government put Japanese civilians right in the rape zone by moving over a million Japanese settlers to Manchukuo.

Half of the settlers were female since entire families were settled

Kwanting army soldiers and employees brought their families too.

The Soviets captured 2.7 million Japanese in total across Manchukuo, North Korea, South Sakhalin and the Kuriles

https://desuarchive.org/his/thread/17775343/#q17775346

Japanese settlers reported mass rape of Japanese girls everywhere in all four of those occupation zones.

Soviet soldiers only placed Japanese girls in their barracks for repeated nonths long rapes in Manchukuo.


Japanese girls were actively herded into Soviet barracks and raped for months, and not just randomly raped on the streets.

The Soviets actively herded Japanese settler civilians and nurses into designated camps for processing and repeatedly raped the girls while they were waiting for repatriation back to Japan

Chinese immediately kicked Japanese men out of their houses in Manchukuo and took all their food and clothes, Japanese males were dying en masse by the hundreds of thousands in a few weeks.

Also, only Japanese males were massacred en masse at specific incidents like Gegenmiao

Chinese men were joining the Soviets in committing the massacres.


210,000 to 220,000 Japanese civilian settlers (mostly males) died in a few weeks in Manchukuo in late 1945 under Soviet occupation, from a combination of exposure to the cold, starvation, disease and massacres.

Others put the death toll at 347,000-376,000 Japanese.

Japanese girls and women were able to get food and clothes from Chinese farmers in exchange for sex.

Soviets ran over Japanese males with tanks in Gegenmiao.

Park Chunghee was an officer trained by Japan and volunteered for Japan, and Japan sent him to the Manchukuo puppet army in 1944 for garrison duty. He wasn't even allowed to serve in the Kwantung army

There was zero fighting in Manchukuo in 1944

He was an officer and pro-Japan collaborator volunteer so he got assigned to a non-combat front

Taiwanese and Korean conscripts were thrown into the Philippines in 1944 with bamboo spears

Park Chunghee and Manchukuo army didn't even fight the Soviets, they disintegrated on contact and Park fled to Beijing and then Tianjin for American ships to evacuate him to South Korea

The Japanese Kwantung army which was several hundred thousand troops fought the Soviets and got crushed

Yes dumbass, there was no fighting in Manchukuo in 1942-1945

Low level Korean conscripts were cannon fodder so they were sent to the Philippines to die for Yamatos

Why would they send them to a front with no fighting retard?

Japan didn't expect the Soviets to attack.

Just like America sends blacks and Puerto Ricans to Iraq and Jordan.

And even higher level Korean collaborators (Park Chunghee volunteered for Japan and trained in Japanese military academy as an officer) were put in the Manchukuo army and not the Kwantung army

Also this part is bullshit.

Japan's main islands was starving but NOT Japanese in Korea or Manchukuo which were on the Asian mainland.

Japanese soldiers there lived off local grain there and Manchukuo was one of the biggest grain producers due to its fertile soil.

The very reason Japan sent over 1 million Japanese Yamato civilians to settle and colonise Manchukuo was to relived food and population pressure on the Japanese home islands which couldn't feed themselves.

Japanese settlers opened up new farms in Manchukuo's soil to feed themselves and the Kwantung army.

What's the tactical advantage of deploying one of the worst WMD against your own troops?

prohibition. ice cream shops and soda fountains took the social space of bars and taverns. hence why during WW2 ice cream and coca cola were such important things to provide to the troops for morale. it was like giving a royal navy sailor his rum ration. healthier too because it's got like dairy in it and doesn't cause you to do drunken stupid shit.
the obesity thing came way later when we stopped teaching home economics in schools and a bunch of woo-woo and marketing bullshit filled everyone's brains. so now they eat too much calorie-loaded crap instead of something healthy. del monte, one of the biggest processors of fruit and veggies, just declared bankruptcy because too few people are buying their products these days. it's processed therefore people think it is bad for you. now they are fat and blame the processed food that they didn't buy and eat like we used to when we weren't fat.
nobody got obese eating canned spinach like popeye is what i'm saying. and unless you are a cheap weirdo like me you probably don't eat it today.

That ad is older than AI generated bullshit you see everywhere today. I guess someone in Carls Jr marketing department didn't get the memo on what it means to be real American.

In general, war doesn't create personal animosity because both sides tend to "know the rules". You saw a lot of mutual understanding during WW1 for example. But this is a matter of motivations, as if you're conscript A and they're conscript B then you care a hell of a lot less that you're getting shells thrown at you and can sympathize.
But if your country is the victim of a surprise attack or your country believes they are driving out western imperialists, then it becomes ideological and gets nasty fast.
It's why on the Western Front in Europe you had the British and Germans treating each other relatively well as POWs, while on the Eastern European and Pacific theaters you had death marches, shooting sailors in lifejackets, lopping off soldiers heads and hanging the skulls from tank turrets, and just being menaces to each other in general. When one or both sides view the other as subhuman, there is nothing but a vicious cycle of warcrimes.
