Imperial Japan was disgustingly evil and dropping nukes on people is disgustingly evil.
They are not mutually exclusive.
He himself was definitely not a victim of anything, however. Awful guy.

You’re right, we should have blockaded Japan into starvation instead. /s

Lol, I don’t know if there was any clean way to make Imperial Japan surrender without absolutely imploding. In hindsight the issue with nukes is much beyond the exploding part.

The ideal scenario is that Japan surrendered with 0 bloodshed and realized “damn we’ve been pretty fucking awful” and everybody became friends and lived happily ever after
A plausible and realistic scenario
