@Annkies1 @ACSPARTAN1 Completely agree, this is genuinely frightening.
People have a basic right to know if a convicted sex offender is living right next door, especially if they have kids. Immediate neighbours shouldn’t be kept in the dark.

@grok The person in the video is on a pole next to traffic lights, working on a black boxy device with cables and what looks like a rectangular antenna/array on top.
Please describe exactly what you see step-by-step in the video, identify what the equipment actually is (traffic camera, ANPR, ULEZ enforcement, etc.), and explain the "phased array" claims being made.
Is this standard traffic enforcement gear or something more exotic? Give a clear, evidence-based breakdown — no conspiracy spin, just technical facts."

Not that you will, but you should also watch the tv show "反人类暴行"

I fret to tell you man, my own government doesn't even teach this! There's more reason to believe such acts when they're so well documented instead of the "whataboutisms". Whether you believe it or not is up to you.

@njtn__ The thing with Japan is that it didn't restructure its party. It is still the same party; the United States pardoned Japanese war criminals in exchange for biological warfare data from Unit 731 & so Japan could be a buffer state in the Cold War.
Shinzo Abe btw 👇 rip bozo

English

Britain has also returned or loaned many items over the years and has issued formal apologies and expressions of regret on multiple occasions (including for aspects of colonial history). Most should be returned.
That said, expecting full-scale restitution of tens of thousands of objects taken 150–180 years ago is still unrealistic. It would create chaos for museums worldwide.
English

I’ll be honest: growing up in the West, our education heavily focused on Pearl Harbor and Japanese atrocities against Allied forces, but I barely heard anything about the Nanjing Massacre or Unit 731 until much later. It was only after my girlfriend《反人类暴行》and we stayed up all night to finish it.
That really dug deeper. Then reading about the scale of what happened was abhorrent...the brutality, the denial, and especially the modern apologists and whitewashing I’ve seen online...ESPECIALLY TODAY with the Tokyo Trial anniversary.
I’m still not fully clear on the exact connection between Nobusuke Kishi and Shinzo Abe’s views, but the whole “Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere” ideology — Japan positioning itself as the liberator while committing horrific crimes — was genuinely sickening.
English

@njtn__ If you teach your children to do murder and genocide, what will they teach their children? Shinzo Abe, the grandson of Nobusuke Kishi (a Class-A war criminal who remained in power until his death), is another example. I encourage you to look at history as falling dominoes
English

Very perceptive and I totally agree! The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
it’s a pattern that was handed down, normalised, and somewhat indoctrinated
The difference now is presentation. The same instincts that drove violence and exploitation a century ago don’t disappear, they get absorbed into institutions. Instead of a sword, it’s policy.
English

Thank you for mentioning Langdon Warner and the Mogao Caves — I wasn’t very familiar with that story and I’ll definitely look it up. I appreciate you sharing it.
My first comment was genuinely meant as empathy for what the Chinese people went through.
I’m sorry the conversation turned into an emotional back-and-forth. That wasn’t my goal. I’m happy to keep learning about this history and inform myself more!
English

I appreciate you saying that, and I’m sorry for how this turned out.
You’re right — the Century of Humiliation was incredibly painful for the Chinese people, and that pain is real and deserves to be acknowledged. I started this conversation with solidarity on remembering history honestly, but it unfortunately spiraled into an emotional tit-for-tat with the other person, and that clouded the point I was originally trying to make.
On the looted artifacts: I don’t think returning clear cases of plunder is inherently harmful. Many people (including me) support greater transparency and reasonable repatriation where it makes sense. My disagreement was mainly with turning this into broad, open-ended reparations demands 180+ years later, not with acknowledging the original wrongs.
English

No, I wouldn’t cheer for Britain being invaded, looted, and humiliated today — and I don’t cheer for what happened to China in the 19th century either.
But here’s the key difference you keep dodging:
If someone did that to Britain today, we would call it a war crime and demand justice under modern international law.
What happened in the 1800s was conducted under the rules of that era — brutal conquest was how empires operated (including China’s own history of expansion). Applying 2026 moral and legal standards to 1840s wars is selective and unrealistic.
You’re not asking for remembrance. You’re asking for a modern financial ledger and restitution for events from 180 years ago.
That’s not how it works. Germany’s reparations were exceptional because of the Holocaust’s scale and the immediate post-war occupation. The Opium Wars are not the same.
English

I was acknowledging that Britain won those wars (historical fact), while also saying the human suffering caused was real and should be remembered honestly. I have no problem with Chinese people remembering the Century of Humiliation — that pain is valid.
What I pushed back against was the idea of demanding full reparations and restitution from modern Britain 180+ years later. Even the Chinese government itself doesn’t officially pursue that. That’s where I think it crosses from remembrance into unrealistic grievance politics.
I support remembering history clearly and standing in solidarity with the victims of past atrocities. I just don’t believe the solution is making today’s people pay for the actions of their distant ancestors.

@njtn__ @Allya10X You can take a look for yourself. Nothing here mentions who burnt down the Old Summer Palace! But nevermind, they're white people so we can let them get away with it right?

English

Germany paid reparations for the Holocaust because it was an unprecedented, industrialized genocide that happened in living memory. Many survivors were still alive, the country was totally defeated and occupied, and the new German state formally accepted responsibility as part of rebuilding after the war.
Britain wasn’t defeated — it won those conflicts.
I’m not saying history should be ignored. The suffering was real and should be remembered. But turning every old imperial wrong into modern financial demands isn’t practical or fair.
English

My point is simple.
The original post was demanding Britain pay full reparations for wars China lost 180+ years ago. That’s the core issue.
I acknowledged the atrocities. I said they should be remembered honestly.
But turning that into “you owe us money now” is where I disagree.
You can’t lose a war, then centuries later demand the winners’ descendants pay up.
English

Sure, let’s be consistent.
If we’re applying modern ethics to historical conquests, then yes — many museum pieces were looted. Britain (and others) should be more transparent about provenance and consider returning clear-cut cases where it makes sense.
But here’s the thing: almost every major civilization has done this. Chinese imperial dynasties looted artifacts from conquered regions too.
English

I wasn’t congratulating Britain, I was stating a historical fact: they won the Opium Wars. You turned that into emotional grandstanding.
Some artifacts and reparations have been returned over the years, and Britain has expressed regret in various forms. But demanding full-scale reparations 180 years later is unrealistic.
The real irony? An account based in the United States — a country literally built on conquest, displacement of Native Americans, and its own imperial history — lecturing Britain about stolen goods and demanding restitution.
Pot, meet kettle.
No one denies the suffering caused. But this selective outrage from America is something else.
English

@njtn__ You won the Opium Wars. Congrats. You poisoned a nation, looted its art, and called it victory. Embarrassing. Now you're a third-rate island BEGGING for trade deals with the country you once bullied. That's KARMA. Enjoy your museum of stolen goods. 🤡
