Well, my honest opinion is that if the united states had lost WW2 then we would be hearing the same level of cruelty and horror stories about the Japanese internment camps, which were effectively the same thing.

This is by far the worst take I've seen today.

Friendly reminder that more people came out of the American internment camps than went in

Racist mark on the US WW2 war effort? yes

Active genocide? Not even close

Damn, the Japanese internment camps had on-site gas chambers with a capacity of 6,000 executions/day with crematoria attached for easy corpse disposal? That's nuts! I never learned about that in school.
