Japan was worse than the Nazis in WW2, why does history treat them otherwise?

Are Jews better or more important than Chinese people, in the eyes of history?

Some historians and governments hold Japanese military forces, namely the Imperial Japanese Army, the Imperial Japanese Navy, and the Imperial Japanese family, especially under Emperor Hirohito, responsible for the deaths of millions, some estimate between 3[2] and 14[3] million civilians and prisoners of war through massacre, human experimentation, starvation, and forced labor that was either directly perpetrated or condoned by the Japanese military and government

There are literally billions of Chinese, of course nobody bats an eye when a few million go missing.
ETA: also if you know your history, you’ll know that nothing that the Japanese did was any worse then what the communist Chinese did when they took over. Talk about make you disappear.

They didn't have a hip name, or flamboyant leader.

When people go all lib over why we a-bombed them tell them to read about what Japan did during the war.

They got their comeuppance in the form of a mushroom cloud.

Hell, hardly ever in history journals either.

The Chinese don't run our government.

For starters we let Hirohito live.

I took a Chinese history class back in the day. The teacher even pointed this out on several occasions. Their history texts don't about say Mongol raids killing half the population or Levees breaking/rivers moving killing an entire city.
They say "River changed, time for new leader"

Yeah, it is pretty clear we took their toys away and made them sit in a corner.

Japan is substantially more Pro-American than Germany is. The real forgotten Holocaust is what the Turks did to the Armenians. And people under 30 have never even heard of the Khmer Rouge or know what happened in Rwanda.

They got the big one dropped on them, twice. I think that is payback enough.

Because Doug thought he was a god and he wanted it that way.
He wanted the emperor to answer to him. It was Doug's ego that got Japan a sweet deal.

And gave half of it to their sworn enemy.

If you’ve ever spoken to any of the old timers that fought, or just lived through the war, they will tell you clearly how much more evil the Japs were.

Stalin killed more people than Hitler. The Japanese killed more people than Hitler. Neither specifically targeted Jews the way Hitler did though.
There's your lesson for the day.
