    So many people here and abroad were isolated by governments who assumed the worst. No individualized assessment, no questions about why they are here instead of there and little to no consideration of how the effects of the decision may affect the future. The solution for the people in charge at the time essentially amounted to; “if they look like this and have a record saying where their mother was when she birthed them, straight to jail.” 

    Perspective:
    The governments who did this were signatories of agreements that explicitly banned collective punishment for enemy soldiers. But since those were simply civilians in an area you control, that didn’t apply! So there were aspects of civilized behaviour that an Imperial Japanese soldier could be afforded that a second generation Japanese civilian simply wasn’t.

    It won’t be

    There is no saving or teaching modern republicans because they aren’t republicans

    They’re trump-vangelist cultists.

    They watch their own kids die from preventable diseases and still swear vaccines are evil with no evidence

    As long as they exist, we will never find normality again. You can’t reason with people like that

    There are no peaceful long term solutions

  6. It was a terrible injustice also perpetrated in Canada.

    Similar to Americans, Japanese Canadians had their property seized and never returned.

    40+ years later a small token amount of compensation was offered.
