> Obviously, Germany had the concentration camps and Japan brutally tortured prisoners of war
And the "good guys" firebombed tens of millions innocent civilians and nuked cities. Not to mention the mass rapes, starvation, etc.
> However, the U.S. did round up Japanese people, but it hardly compares to the atrocities of the Nazis.
You are right. The nazis never nuked anyone.

This is factually true. It is bizarre how this is downvoted. Its like people can't live in a world where the victors were less than perfect, or that acknowledging war crimes from one party is equivalent to saying the other parties are good.
People even invented a fashionable buzzword for this evil way of thinking: whataboutism.
