If she broke things off, I think she has the moral obligation to return it. Legally I don't think she has to but it's the right thing to do.

To my recollection the conversation began bc his grandmother was very upset he married a German because of the holocaust. I said that my grandmother would have shit a brick if I married a Japanese dude and he didn't really understand why. So yeah, there totally was context but I didn't feel like I needed to write the…

And seriously if I said this to a Chinese person like he suggested I would be outraged that he didn't know about his own Chinese history and the history of his fellow Asian Americans. Wtf?

I'm pretty sure japan has denied everything in the past and they have done no reparations.

You are so angry. Have a nice day!

Thanks for backing me up! I meant no offense. I swear people here can be so sensitive.

My point was that the vast majority of Americans don’t know about history. And the reason why I mentioned he was Jewish was because we were taking about the holocaust and I mentioned japan. Most Jewish people my age in america are pretty well versed about ww2 and the holocaust and have no idea about the Japanese.…

There are a lot of things that we don't learn from our textbooks. Kind of scary to think about. People who don't want to learn more will never really know more than what they read in high school. I'm one of those people who if I hear about something unfamiliar I'll look it up and read up on it. I am still hopelessly…

Who is “they”? Because it essentially was a team of people who don’t work for Ford. The images exist but they aren’t “real” ie endorsed and commissioned by Ford.

I actually said to a Jewish friend recently about what the Japanese did to the Chinese and I said that Japan was just as horrible as Nazi Germany and he said “well I wouldn’t go THAT far”. So I showed him a picture of a pile of beheaded Chinese heads in Nanking and he quickly shut up.

He’s black so that makes him “street”. Sure

Someone asked “is this real?” And you said “yup”. I could draw a picture of a ford car with dead babies on it and upload it to a website too, would that be real as well?

It was posted without authority and knowledge. Not real.

Textbooks have always been doing this. I remember in my honors US history class the textbook devoted all of one sentence about Japanese internment camps. It literally was “the US also interred Japanese people in camps during WW2”. I remember thinking how bullshit it was. Also no mention of japan and the brutal acts…

Did you read the article? Because it clearly states it wasn't real

I think you are reading way into what I said and there was no reason to think I was saying anything other than that a yard like that wouldn’t be great for a kid to run around in. We also live near nature trails and parks (there is a nature trail behind my house where people bike and cross country ski and stuff) but we…

Where the fuck did I say that? I don't even live in CA.

I didn’t mean my post to be disrespectful or snarky so apologies if that’s how you interpreted it. I have all the kids on our street playing in my back yard and they literally roll around and jump off of the swings onto my grass. My observation was strictly that I wouldn’t necessarily a yard like that picture because…

There are a lot of nice plantings in that picture that I wouldn’t want my kids to trample and kill. Sure, sand and gravel are great to run and play in but I don’t see a lot of room in that picture where kids can run around without killing some really nice plants. Sheesh!

It’s very nice, but I don’t know if it’s a yard that kids can run around in. I'm sure there's other options too.
