      The atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki sparked a worldwide controversy when the bombs were dropped on August 6, 1945 and August 9, 1945, respectively. To this day, these bombings are still very controversial in the world, with arguments both for and against the use of these bombs being made very commonly. Although, based on the facts of the situation, the bombing was an easily justifiable step to ending the war with Japan. With possible alternatives being obsolete in comparison, this action by the United States government was a very crucial moment in this war for the United States.
      One large argument which strongly justified the acts of the U.S. government in dropping these two bombs is the fact that it may have saved countless American lives. As it is stated in the provided text, "The Japanese saw suicide as an honorable alternative to surrender." (Argument #1 For). This means that the Japanese soldiers would've kept fighting and killing Americans, even at the cost of their own lives. Another argument which justifies these bombings was that the Japanese were given fair warning. A statement in the text claims, "Japanese civilians were warned in advance through millions of leaflets dropped on Japanese cities by U.S. warplanes." (Argument #5 For). This shows that although the Japanese citizens and government were warned of these bombings beforehand, they still chose not to surrender. This choice was the decision of the Japanese government, and should be treated as such.
      Although there are some alternatives to the bombings that are listed in the text, none of them would've worked out nearly as well for either side than the bombings did. The listed alternatives included: "A demonstration of the bomb... Wait for the Russians... Continue conventional bombing..." (Argument #4 Against). A demonstration of the bomb could've likely ended very negatively. This is because it would have to be arranged through a back channel, such as through America's ally, the Russians. The problem with this option is the fact that with Joseph Stalin in charge in Russia, there's a decent chance that they would've misused the bomb. This would also waste American resources in building the extra bomb for demonstration. Also, they likely would not have surrendered after the demonstration, due to the fact that they did not even surrender after the bombing of Hiroshima. Why waiting for the Russians would've been a worse idea than the bombings is because it would have resulted in the casualties and fatalities of allied Russian soldiers, as well as American soldiers because of the increase in the length of the war and the increase in battles that would've been fought. Continuing the conventional bombings would've been even worse than dropping the atomic bombs, because as a Japanese professor who served in the war stated, "If the military had its way, we would have fought until all 80 million Japanese were dead. Only the atomic bomb saved me." (Argument #2 For). This shows that the dropping of the atomic bombs actually saved the lives of Japanese soldiers, rather than causing excess amounts of death.
      Although the bombings were very brutal, they were completely necessary to end the war with Japan. On August 15, 1945- just six days after the bombing of Nagasaki- the Japanese unconditionally surrendered to the Americans, effectively ending the war. Not only did these bombings save the lives of allied soldiers, they also saved the lives of many Japanese soldiers. At the end of it all, the war did end due to these bombings. A war which could've lingered for years longer. As ironic as it may be, these bombings protected the lives of many, and were completely justified.

      Russia was a much more industrialized country than they were before WW1 and even more so by the end of WW2. They would have annihilated Japan in any 1v1 war and the fact that the Soviets entered the war against them opening another front and destroying half their remaining ground army and their most elite battalions so quickly was a big factor in helping end the war even quicker.
      And it did push the US to dropping the bombs when they did knowing they had an agreement in place with Russia to enter the war 3 months after Germany’s surrender. But the US didn’t want Russia getting into Japan like they did with Germany and half of Europe so they dropped the bombs trying to get Japan to the negotiating table even quicker while showing off the US’ capabilities to the Soviets with the power of the bomb

    Paused the video on a whim after you mentioned 100k subs cuz I remembered the pinned ERB comment on your Joker vs Pennywise reaction and went to take a look at the video. That was the video that got me to subscribe back in November and it's honestly been incredible to see just the visual transformation of your setup since then. I'm sure you worked your ass off to get to that point, and the improvements to your studio I'm sure are hella expensive, so the way you've siezed that momentum is beyond inspiring!

    Oh hell yes, thank you so much for releasing this ahead of schedule because this is easily my favorite alongside ZvT. The acting is probably the closest they’ve ever been to perfext, still not sure it isn’t the real TR.
    In this churchill is played by Dan Bull, who yes was Jack. Dan does his isn music (largely video game raps) and i HIGHLY recommend it. Among his most recent work my favorites are his Skeleton rap, Electro Swing Outer Worlds rap, and Frostpunk collab with Stupendium (who is an absolute god of wordsmithing and i recommend literally everything he’s EVER made)
    Roosevelt was the one who said “speak softly and carry a big stick” and one of my favorite quotes ever (it’s also a weapon in Outer Worlds, melee weapon with a massive boost to intimidation lol)
    And once an old lady referred to Churchill as a “drunk old man” to which he replied “madam, in the morning I’ll be sober but you’ll still be ugly.”
    Oh also WC can mean watercloset, a british toilet, and deuce...yeah, a shit joke but a very clever shit joke.

    About the bullet line: He said that Teddy will "lose the bout", and"If a bullet to the chest won't stop you, my words will".
    I think, you missed that. It wasn't a compliment. He just used the bullet refference to say, that he will have more... impact.

    to be clear, Japan wasn't going to surrender, just with draw from the mainland. Estimates at the time were 80 million deaths to invade Japan, mostly Japanese civilian casualties.

    • @matthewsantos655
      @matthewsantos655 4 роки тому

      To be truly clear, the Japanese were going to surrender. Japan was extremely afraid of the USSR invading the Japanese mainland and didn't want communism and were going to surrender to the US regardless of the bombs. It was definitely going to cost lives, but 80 million is a stretch given that the whole Japanese population was only 71 million in 1945...

    Battle of Gallipoli, it was one of the worst british casualties due to the fact it was a beach landing but heavily defended. And forced to retreat, from what I could remember how much casualties was 500k+ british and commonwealth forces lost from a single battle. "Axis of Darkness" is the WW2 Axis powers references. And boy scout stuff, probably due to the forest stuff.

    British person here.
    So the line "go hide in your tube" is a reference to the Blitz, when Britain was bombed for years during WWII. And during these air raids, in London, the Tube (Underground, British Metro) was used as public bomb shelters.
    Also, the line where Churchil did the "And you'll still be roasted" is a direct reference to a joke that he told at a dinner party where a woman said "Sir, you are drunk" and he replied "And you are ugly. But tomorrow, I'll be sober, and you'll still be ugly"
    You did get the jist of them, but just some clarifications on what they actually are.

    My favourite bit of trivia about this one: when Churchill did the Rushmore line, and we see the Rushmore monument transform into the presidents as a band, the 3 presidents who aren't Roosevelt had already been portrayed by Nice Peter in previous battles... BUT they didn't use footage from those battles to put together the band, instead they chose to dress up three copies of an image of Dante as the presidents. (Dante is one of the more important secondary members of the ERB crew, he played Nicola Tesla in Tesla vs Edison, and he came up with the "naan violence" line in Gandhi vs MLK Jr)
