I want to find a place to kneel to heroes
— Li Ao, written on the 60th anniversary of the victory in the War of Resistance Against Japan (excerpt)
If I were Japanese, I would also visit Yasukuni Shrine!
And I am Chinese!
As Chinese, today I think of the tens of millions of Chinese ancestors who fought with their flesh and blood against the Japanese and American machine guns and artillery on the battlefields of the Anti-Japanese War and Korea...... I want to cry but have no tears; I want to kneel and bow ten thousand times...... But I cannot find their memorial tablets! Why do the Japanese visit Yasukuni Shrine? Because for the Yamato people, what is worshipped inside is all their own heroes!
For the honor of the nation and people, Japanese soldiers could fly their planes to charge at American warships and die together! If defeated, they could all commit seppuku together! Seppuku!
Do you know how to perform abdominal seppuku? Insert the knife into the abdomen and cut hard into the chest, then stab horizontally with force!
Thoroughly executed!
Who is Zhang Zizhong?
Qiu Shaoyun, do you still remember?
Who were the two special-class combat heroes on the Korean battlefield?
Can you answer? Do you know their deeds? Do you know how they died? Today, we have almost forgotten them, haven't we?
We have transformed, we have lost our spirit; we are unworthy of being Chinese. Our era has few heroes, few men!
Our government understands the way of strengthening the nation, what it means to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens, acting later. Our government has achieved great accomplishments.
Our ancestors were thousands of years ahead in history, countless heroes and outstanding dynasties, so powerful and mighty in the world, with countless heroes and gentlemen emerging everywhere. They risked their lives for righteousness, were upright and honest, loyal to the country, unmoved by poverty and low status, and could not bend by might.
Today, for money, people can lose their dignity, let alone the dignity of a nation or people!
Unexpectedly, today, China can no longer find any heroes!
Even if there are, officials treat them like decorative decorations for political achievements! They are mocked by some idiots as foolish monkeys!
Today, some of us look down on traditional Chinese things; they are Western lackeys!
The Japanese have Yasukuni Shrine to worship, but we do not! And no one wants to go!
The martyrs' bones remain, but their names have disappeared...... I want to find a place to kneel to heroes!
I want to ask the Japanese to tell me who fought bloody battles against the Japanese army in which part of China back then! But the Japanese definitely won't tell me that our heroes have died in battle for decades, and the Japanese still fear them. But today, we are wealthier than during the anti-Japanese war, yet the Japanese have become even more fiercely scornful of us! This cannot be blamed on them; we deserve it: on one hand, our tails are held high so high, welcoming second-rate Japanese products to dominate China, intoxicating with Japanese films, worshipping Japanese stars. I would rather he worship Tojo Hideki and one day become China's Tojo to destroy Japan.
While the Japanese completely distort the history of invading China in elementary school textbooks, our educators are still debating whether Jin Yong's martial arts novels should be included in middle school textbooks! Moreover, we don't know when we even despised heroes. This is no longer just a simple sorrow! In terms of national spirit, Chinese people are inferior to Japanese. The Japanese say: Overall, the Chinese are the lowest race in the world. In terms of overall quality, the southern Chinese are far superior to the northern Chinese people...... We Japanese (except for a few politicians who only kowtow) prefer to call your country 'China' and not 'China', but we call it China before the Song dynasty. One reason we look down on the Chinese is ...... When I was young, my father took me to Hibiya Park and pointed to the spoils captured from the Beiyang Fleet, telling me that Japan became a major world power after defeating the Chinese Beiyang Fleet. When I arrived in China, I found that Chinese people were even worse than I had imagined. They bowed and scraped to me, a Japanese student with no background, saying everything was good for Japan...... When I asked them about a Chinese hero who would rather die in fire to complete his mission during the Korean War, they said such fools would never come again. Japan has the Yasukuni Shrine...... We Japanese will forever remember the heroic spirits who died for the country, enjoying the respect they deserve at the Yasukuni Shrine. Whenever we sing of the heroic souls who died for the country, you must often return to the dreams of your loving mother, and we will be filled with emotion and unforgettable forever.
I deeply feel a kindred spirit's understanding of his words. If I ever meet him on the battlefield, I will have a drink before fighting!
General Zhang Zizhong died heroically in the Zaoyi Campaign, and senior Japanese officers personally carried the coffin!Although they are enemies, and we have killed countless Japanese, at least the Japanese know that heroes are meant to be revered. Such heroes, even if they are enemies, deserve deep respect.

Only a nation that respects its heroes can thrive. The Japanese are such a nation. The Japanese do not look down on China, but rather on the Chinese people of today.

Our ancestors would not dare insult or disgrace that.

The Japanese only respect the strong; if you kill them, they will still respect you.

The Japanese despise the weak; the more you kneel, the more they treat you like a dog.

And we are the weak.

In Chinese history, there are countless stories of heroes respecting other heroes, but today they are just stories. People nowadays even ridicule the heroes before their eyes as fools! Let alone the heroes of others?

Of course, I speak with a standpoint. The heroes of Japan are my enemies, but even if I want to destroy them completely, I should first show a bit of respect. As for the traitors and petty men of our own country, even if they share the same ancestors, they should be executed and despised.

Some of us look down on our predecessors, look down on our fathers, thinking they are old-fashioned. But it is precisely in these old-fashioned fathers that we can hope to see the true essence of the Chinese nation. It is precisely through their direct or indirect struggle against Japan and the American imperialists that our last bit of dignity was preserved.

Today, the situation around China is severe, and there are many heroes shouting and cursing, which makes me feel that China truly has no hope; the key is that no one thinks about what we can actually do.

We want revenge, but not just with words! That will only be like monkeys!

Blood debts must be repaid in blood, but we must understand to respect ourselves and respect our enemies; a true man hides his anger and joy, killing without form.

If fighting a battle can bring out our national spirit and advance our technology and industry by a large step,

Then we fight!

Rogue elderly Japanese simply do not admit to having invaded China!

Ignorant young Japanese simply do not know they invaded China!

Shameless militarists say being a comfort woman is an honor!

Yet we console ourselves, hoping for the conscience of the Japanese!And they think that we poor people in the Third World are making up stories to extort their money... If you are someone who doesn't really like fanaticism and radicalism and prefer a moderate approach, then personally I think what you should do is: quietly keep the principle of not buying Japanese products in mind. We don't need to show off or go on demonstrations to oppose Japan's shameful actions. We should silently protest in our hearts against the mistakes Japan has committed against us and their shameless denial of these mistakes! Isn't this the most basic principle of being Chinese? We simply need to pay a little more attention when purchasing products and avoid buying Japanese goods whenever possible. Believe in ourselves—if we unite, everyone can achieve this, which will hit Japan economically and make them no longer dare to underestimate our power. If you think I'm daydreaming, you can first take a look at the following data: Almost 90% of Chinese people around the world use Japanese cars and Japanese electronics. I have calculated that if Chinese people all over the world stop buying Japanese products, Japan will lose 100 to 140 billion US dollars in foreign exchange income each year! And foreign exchange income is the source and driving force of any country! Its relationship with the national economy is roughly 1 to 8, or in other words: losing a portion of foreign trade revenue will cause a country to lose eight times that in domestic economic income. To convert: 100 to 140 billion US dollars in foreign exchange income is equivalent to one trillion dollars, which is one-fifth of Japan's total economic output. Therefore, if Chinese people around the world work together, they can, without using weapons, bring Japan to its knees!! And permanently to its knees! We should learn from the Jews: they once collectively boycotted a German factory's products, ultimately leading to the company's complete bankruptcy! The cause was that the factory's president had said some so-called words of understanding about Hitler! Now Germans treat Jews exceptionally well, do you know why? There are two reasons: one is fear: because Jews are very united; the second is the ruthlessness of Jews: Jews have never given up pursuing Nazi perpetrators! As long as any Nazis are found hiding anywhere on this planet, they will certainly capture or abduct them, and if that is impossible, then kill them!Look at us in China?!

Being merciful to the executioners is undoubtedly suicide!

Let's start taking action!

Fellow countrymen: after so many years, are we still going to wait?

Let's start taking action:

Start with myself!

Start with my family!!

Start with my friends!!!

Start with every organization around me!!!!

As long as everyone works together:

In the end, I think in at most 10 years, all Chinese people around the world will achieve this!

Even if only half can be achieved, the blow to Japan will still be fatal!!

Organize a global anti-Japanese goods boycott revenge organization, please connect and unite in all places, okay?!

Fellow countrymen, let's start taking action!

Everyone, please realize the importance of boycotting Japanese goods.

Boycotting Japanese goods means first preventing being misled by Japanese dogs.

Some so-called patriots (who at the time were secretly bought by Japan as lapdogs, with the goal of provoking division among us already ununited Chinese masses) often say: boycotting Japanese goods is impossible, because almost all cars and electrical appliances contain at least some Japanese parts. So let's just stop!

What is the purpose of saying the boycott of Japanese goods should stop here?

Can't Chinese people feel it! Can't they feel that Japan is afraid?

They are afraid of seeing the Chinese masses organize, and then carrying out an effective movement to boycott Japanese goods!

Fellow countrymen, start with me. Boycotting Japanese goods is the best action to truly love our country!

Little Japan... ah... fuck tm
Bench...
The original author did write some parts quite well, but overall it's too extreme, generalizing everything, and directly condemning China. Especially a few sentences praising Japan, it makes it even more unpleasant to read. The author keeps targeting the younger generation, as if all young people have betrayed the country. Misleading and extreme.
Only by being extreme can it have a better motivating effect.
That's a bit too harsh.
I hate extreme things the most. It's a total of four pages, and I barely managed to read one.
Ruthless? I don't think so.
As for our youth, apart from barking a few times like dogs and swearing a few times, they do nothing. On one hand, many of our next generation are spoiled, avoid serious matters, know nothing when asked about Chinese history, and China's future will be full of weaklings with no backbone. The author is not even as good as those young people; at least they spoke out, while the author, apart from obsessively attacking Chinese people, doesn't seem to say anything about the Japanese, and in some parts even seems to praise them.
Haven't seen it, he's just this extreme.
I made some changes to the original work so that it wouldn't be so extreme.
I never got passing grades in modern Chinese history; I always have a sort of resistance to it. I was serious about ancient history and world history. What is this, what the author calls a big *spineless coward???* Extreme, very extreme.
This is a place for playing games, not for talking about politics or countries. Telling me to boycott Japanese products? Sorry, I can't do that. I like playing Japanese games like Fire Emblem, I like watching Japanese anime like Dragon Ball, I like watching Japanese romantic action films. I just like them. Why should I boycott them? Do I have to suppress my liking for certain things? I don't understand, I really don't understand... You can insult me however you want, just please hold back when it comes to my immediate family, thank you.
Boycotting Japanese goods? I used a domestic TV for half a year and it broke, but a Japanese-made one lasted me ten years and is still in perfect condition… You can criticize all you want, just please be gentle and don't insult my immediate family, thank you.
