"I hope you die a fiery death under U.S. bombs"

To be honest, I thought I was reading a post from ShitWehraboosSay that may have just been just slightly off topic. I have this subreddit combined with a few other "shit[...]say" subs, so I see them all at once when I click on the tab.

I think you misinterpreted my comment, but that is probably my fault; I don't think I appropriately expressed what I was trying to say. I did not intend to associate individual citizens with the actions of their government and I didn't mean to imply that innocent Japanese actually deserved what they got. I did want to bring attention to the fact that some people are so eager to demonize the United States for its actions against the Japanese while hypocritically ignoring (or downplaying) the fact that Japan itself subjected the Chinese, Filipinos, and others to some of the most horrendous treatment imaginable.

And you're right, I am not a socialist. At the same time, I'm not not a socialist, I suppose. At this point, I don't even know what I am in terms of political ideology. I just enjoy reading the submissions to this sub, among others similar to it.

Sorry for the confusion, and I hope I cleared up a few things regarding my intent.
