Since someone in the anon meme wanted to know what I thought about the Nanjing museum I saw, here's what I really think.

( Some of the stuff I might say can be graphic so don't complain because I warned you )

Human beings are disgusting, aren't they?

Sometimes, yes. That's why I want to truly believe that there is good in people, I really do. It's just...even now I don't know the reason why they would do something like this. The youtube thing I saw said that they just hated the Chinese simply because. It was in the past...everything has changed now. It's time to live and forgive but...

I'm sorry for dumping this emotional baggage on you.

Don't be. It's a natural reaction. It just shows that you're not one of those twisted people, and that's a good thing.

My family has a strong distaste [though the term should be much harsher] for the Japanese. When they invaded the village where my grandparent grew up, not only did they wreak havoc, but they also left the village in a state where it was hard to live on afterwards -- staple herbs and crops were either all dug up and stolen or razed and...it was a mess. Living life there was already hard enough before they came, but they just made it a million times worse ( ... )

I never really asked my grandparents (mostly my dad's mother) in fear that I might bring back some unwanted memories of what happened but I can already imagine what it must have been like.

Yeah, I feel the same way. I know that I shouldn't hate the Japanese today either, it's already in the past, people change but it's just kind of get rid of that feeling. I know Japan's culture is different from my morals and stuff, they're so proud that they refuse anything is wrong with their country. But still...
