And even Eastern front German crimes often pale conpared to what the Japanese did to anyone they came across. They threw babies into the air and caught them on their bayonets in front of their mothers for sport, comitted mass beheadings literally just for fun, cut off womans and girls breast while they were still alive, cut unborn babies out of living womens wombs, hospitals set on fire, nuns and priests hung in the church, girls of all ages mass raped, babies eyeballs gouged out and smeared on walls, burying peope alive, and all of this and way more just because they could. Horrifying to the point where even the most devout Nazis had to step in in places like Nanking and stop them because they were treating their enemies worse than even the nazis themselves treated people they considered an inferior race and who they were literally trying to genocide.

"...many high profile Nazi officials such as John Rabe were shocked and disgusted by Japanese atrocities and made life risking efforts to stop the horrid massacres of civilians saving up to 200,000 people,..." Like I hate the nazis obviously but Americans dont know when to stfu about things they know nothing about and that didn't happen even remotely close to their country

That's also the reason why the Nazis committed the vast majority of their war crimes on the Eastern Front and not the Western front, because on the Western front they were fighting enemies who they still considered people because they're Aryans and so they just killed them and moved on, meanwhile on the Eastern front they were fighting Eastern Europeans who they didn't consider people and who they hated bc they're racist, and so they did a LOT more torturing for fun there. And Japan didn't really give a s**t about ethnicity, they just did war crimes against everyone without hesitation.

Bro there are literal statements from the Nazis about the Japanese being f****d up even by their standards tho 💀 Dont try to come at me either, the holocaust literally happened in my country due to annexation AND my grandpa was in a Japanese prison camp in Indonesia. Most nazis were fine with western euros and asians and treated the non-jewish non-slav locals well during occupation while simtaniouly shooting jews to death like 2 seconds later. The Japanese often were like Dr Mengele on crack, thinking up even more messed up 'experiments' somehow. Some Japanese troops even ate their prisoners. Less focus on ethnic genocide and more focus on just being a menace. While they were enemies of the axis powers, the prisoners taken by the Japanese were usually western euros or asians, and so the nazis were still pretty horrified, especially since generally the Germans killed more efficiently while the Imperial Japanese were wayyy more into drawn-out torture, people just don't hear about it nearly as much because their war crimes didn't happen in the west.
