Cheng Benhua: her pose is commemorated by a five-metre statue in Nanjing, itself the site of one of the worst massacres of the war, when up to 300,000 Chinese men, women and children were butchered by Japanese troops. Today, Japan is not very far away from China.
I’ve heard many times over the last half century that the Japanese don’t believe that other races/nationalities have souls and that they are the most racist people in the world.
Not saying it’s true, but if it were it would explain their lack of guilt in these matters.
We are always think about the holocaust ovens first because it’s the most ridiculous and massive one, but two other equally demonic holocausts happened as well, one in the eastern front “holocaust of bullets” and the other was in China including but not limited to the “Nanjing massacre.”
It’s probably inappropriate but this composition can make a sick album cover, like imagine it’s Debbie Harry and replace the Japanese soldiers with her band sitting on a row of barstools
This is amazing. She reminds me of the young girl at the end of “Full Metal Jacket.” She knew this would be the end result of her actions and committed 110% anyway.
She’s fearless because after being at the mercy of Japanese soldiers as a woman death would be a relief.
The Japanese were never really held to account for what they did in china.
Rest in peace, Cheng Benhua 🙁

Even the nazis thought the japanese were fucked up.

Rip, she was fighting for her freedom
When you have a higher purpose, your life is just secondary to fulfilling what you were meant to do.

She purposely has her hair cut low because she knew it’d only hinder her in combat. She was with it.
She’s giving the same energy as Stjepan Filipovic.
Disgusting, gotto say though, she looks very modern, like she could been in an 90s alternative rock band.
Why the need to colourise?
