Mrs. B. G. Miller, a member of the Hollywood Protective Association, points to an anti-Japanese sign reading 'removed Keep Moving - This is a White Man's Neighborhood', on her house on Tamarind Street, Hollywood, Los Angeles, May 1923. Other houses in the street have similar signs and are a response to Japanese Americans buying a property on the street in order to build a Japanese Presbyterian Church.

Ok go off about how you don't care about facts i guess cool story

as for me to engage in any us apologia

You are literally doing that when you pretend the u.s. was just chugging along, got attacked for no reason and then entered the war. It's the same sort of U.S. GOOD GUY propaganda that has the entire west forgetting the USSR did all the work winning the war

Not teaching about the embargo is literally current, present day U.S. fascist propaganda. You don't think it helps build the nationalist myth of america being the good guys to have children taught WW2 started this way? Lol, ok.

They don't even teach about U.S.- Japanese interactions prior to Pearl harbor in U.S. public schools, the guy above said "people forget" but no it's literally not even mentioned. I went to a "good" public school and took college classes all through high school and the oil embargo or conditions leading up to it weren't mentioned once. My partner has a degree in political science and again, her education never mentioned it.

But yeah im sure it's a good thing for the present fascist world hegemonto teach its populace that they were the lil smol bean attacked by those evil Japanese for no reason, go off on how much you agree with that while you talk about the WeStErN LeFt
