      I appreciate well written comments. ysjet’s response was detailed and well explained, and didn’t just say “of course nothing else would’ve stopped them”, but actually went in depth to explain why (which, of course, I don’t fully agree with, but I’m here to discuss and hear other people’s opinion).

          I was not attacking you, I was trying to have a conversation. Yes, nazis spreading all over asia would be likely worse than two nukes over Japan, but in saying that, there is the underlying assumption that this spread was otherwise unstoppable, or in other words, that the Japanese were capable of perpetrating it, at the time (using the wording in my original comment) while in fact they were almost defeated already.

          But maybe you disagree that they were effectively defeated, or maybe you had something else interesting to say other than “I don’t need to make assumptions” right after making an assumption.

          Anyways, you choose to call me dogshit, and have the guts to talk about nuance when you yourself don’t seem to get it, so, I don’t even know why I’m still wasting time with you. I’ll just block you and move on. Au revoir.
