        What scares me more is that researchers found many more units and branches in that network. Yes, it wasn’t just one institution in Harbin that most talk about for it was discovered first. They were all over occupied China torturing whoever they can get a hold of.

        They were pretty clever about hiding it, moreso than germans who were running when the first camps got seen by the armies. I’m pretty depressed at a thought that monsters like that could’ve succeed in it, or that many attrocities are still unknown to us.

      WW2 was very, very toned down in every aspect of my formal education.

      Basically the only war crimes we learned about was “Germany starved Jewish people and worked them to death”

      But holy shit that’s just the surface level.

      It wasn’t just jews, it wasn’t just death camps, it wasn’t just Germany and it wasn’t just starvation.

      If I had learned everything, I’d have had nightmares about humanity.
