Are you kidding me?
Are you fucking kidding me right now?
Is this fucking joke?
Fukushima? Really?
I mean, Japan did some pretty awful stuff in WW2, but... Fukushima?
Of all the ridiculous things to feel guilty over...
Fukushima was hit by multiple 50 foot tidal waves from a 9.1 earthquake at sea. That's not a fucking nuclear accident. That's your nuclear plant being hit by the hammer of god.
And after that, you contained it. You took the hand fate dealt you and you played it with everything you had. You had workers volunteering to be heroes, to stay and fight to shut that thing down.
And you saved... everyone. Not a single clearly connected death. In the middle of a natural disaster that cost you fifteen thousand souls, your people fought this thing and won.
Chernobyl is something for Russians to be ashamed of, because that was their own screwup, and stupid communists can't do anything right.
Fukushima wasn't your screwup. Fukushima happened to you. And your men stopped it.
Fukushima is not your national shame.
It is one of your finest hours.
