The thing about learning is that you wouldn’t know its value or how much you need it till you take it and go through with it.

Your judgement is impaired by ignorance prior to learning something, so how can you rely on it?!

That’s why kids hate school 😂

Tokyo starving, fueless, and defenseless
279 B Bombers
1 minute apart
67 tons of explosives each
1600 tons of bombs
Kills 100,000 civilians
Flatten 16 square miles

67 more cities are destroyed in the same way after.

Then two nuclear bombs wipe out two cities.

The way Japanese were depicted in media and political statements were racist and dehumanizing.

This was not war.

This was racial cleansing and genocide.

We don’t call this the second Holocaust because we won.
