@@pep-qew Yes, mainland France was occupied by Germany, meaning it’s colonies followed. French Indochina was technically also a puppet of Germany for some time. Edit: if u don’t understand it was in a very indirect rule of Germany
@@afreakingwafflewell actually Germany set up a king of government of france that was like france but under German rule and that was to make uk think france switched sides
Even after the Nazis fell, Japan continued on with its concurring. the nazis might have been harmful and horrible to their enemies, but Japan didn't even care about itself or its own people. every person that died, where an of honor.
Not really good at spreading the message when instead of making the onceler a metaphor for major greedy corporations it instead just makes him a personal character who just was blind to what he was actually doing instead of a thought provoking antagonist to the lorax who also had valid points about what would happen to people's way of earning income and lack of completely viable solutions to this problem as a whole. Not to mention when the characters in this movie are used to advertise its sponsers who are also greedy corporations it really doesn't help with pushing the narrative with such hypocrisy. Don't get me wrong though, I had fun watching this movie but I just don't find it's narrative of environmental preservation that great but the comedy and plot for the onceler's story was great
It would be incredible to make a cover of Biggering but sing H1tler, being that the company could be the Germany between 1933 and 1945, in addition the lorax could be the Soviet union, and the theme of the song would be as it took over all Europe, or also adapt the plot of The Man in the High Casttle
I’m honestly surprised that people actually agreed with Hitler’s twisted beliefs. He was on the road to world domination this way, but thank goodness we stopped him. (I know that world domination may not have been in the cards, but he was pretty close)
People bully Germany and Italy for killing tons of Jewish people and communist in the holocaust meanwhile Japan did the Holocaust but to Chinese and Australians and other pacific countries and they were not punished for war crimes unlike Germany but then again i guess two atomic bombs are punishment.
@@ItsaMeAruigioI mean, if you take a plane to Japan, the odds are you won't find any race of man other than Japanese. That's because most of them won't sell homes to non-Japanese people, or won't give jobs to non-Japanese people. Even if you get a job in Japan, you'll probably be mistreated and earn below minimum wage.
In my opinion, it should have continued: Janitor (rest of the world): somebody sure made a bundle on THAT thing. Wonder what the next million dollar invention (grand empire) is gonna be? O’Hare (USA and USSR): YEAH! I wonder… *shows factory (the empire) in ruins *Oncelers mom (Russia) drives by Oncelers mom: son. You have let me down. Brent (Eastern Europe)! You’re now my new favorite child! *oncelers mom drives away *all of the animals (states once occupied by Japan) walking away (gaining independence) The Lorax (USA): thanks to your hacking and smoging and glumping (conquest, mistreatment, and war crimes), they can’t live here (be a part of you) anymore. So I’m sending them off. Hopefully they will be able to find a better place (regain themselves) out there. The Onceler (Japan): Wait! Hey! *some bear (Manchuria, now under Mao), looks at him The Onceler: Pipsqueak! *holds marshmallow (nothing lol) *some bear walks away, along will all of the other former occupied states *The Lorax (USA) shakes his head and flies away (unoccupies Japan) -flash forward to the future Some kid (Japanese history students): so this really is all your fault. The Onceler (modern Japan): yes…
@@afreakingwaffle Still wasn't Hirohito, kid. And you're using the wrong flag. That's the military flag, not the national flag. The national flag of Japan used during WWII is the flag they still use today.
You could have also put Meijiang, Reorganized China, Azad Government, Japanese Mandate of Pacific, Japanese Burma, Japanese Camboja, Japanese Vietnã, Japanese Laos, and Japanese Phillipines, all Japanese puppets.
At minute 1:53 the years sign should be replaced with the words "Nippon 3A". 1.Nippon Light of Asia 2.Nippon Protector of Asia 3.Nippon the Leader of Asia I don't know the correct order, but those 3 sentences are the contents of "Nippon 3A" And one more thing, for the record, the Imperial Japanese royal family was under house arrest by the military led by Hideki Tojo, and Hirohito didn't know what the military was doing out there and only heard news of the war or maybe not at all because it would be censored by the military and using the emperor's name to raise the spirits of the Japanese people and soldiers Oh yeah, i'm not A Japanese or pro Japan, but I'm an Indonesian
A little inaccurate since Hirohito wasn’t really responsible for the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Hideki Tojo was the one that was responsible and was sentenced to death in a Japanese prison for the war crimes he committed. But the rest is pretty accurate even with the ending obviously. Great video btw, I love it.

As someone with roots in Taiwan🇹🇼 and an Ahma (grandmother) who grew up during WW2 in Taiwan this is one of the most accurate history videos ive seen so far
As someone who just did WW2 in year 10 history (10th grade for the Americans who don't understand the Australian curriculum), I can confirm this meme is accurate
@@maglor2414 You mean the one industrialized country that managed to not get bombed to dust got major market share on industrial goods? What a shocker. Being in the right place at the right time does not automatically make you evil.
