76 years ago to this day the US dropped the "Fat Man" plutonium nuclear bomb on Nagasaki. Despite being notably more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, a combination of weather, geography and logistic errors lead to much lower casualties. But you can still tell by the picture how devastating it was; 40 000 were ****ed instantly, and that number doubled from the fallout.

A lot of controversy over that one especially. Not so much then, but now. Evil horrible nation, Japan already defeated, needless death etc. Even the idea that Truman was sending Stalin a message, Don't fuck with us. None of us were there and after a war that lasted four year with a nation that had promoted unspeakable horrors' almost everywhere they went, I gotta say that considering the estimation that 1,000,000 Americans would die in the invasion of Japan and that almost all of the nation would have to be ****ed during said invasion I would suggewst they made the right decisi9on despite the death total. Though that said it was a drop in the proverbial bucket to the other deaths the Allies had already inflicted on Japan to that point.
