Which country had the craziest post colonial rebrand?

[OffTheDome]

Im going with Belgium. They nearly exterminated the Congolese population long before the Holocaust even occurred, yet this whole time, you would think they were a miskiin European country. But you can argue Japan as well. They committed so many atrocities, denied them and then rebranded into a innocent country who gave us anime

Both Belgium and Japan, they've rebranded themselves really well. You'd never think that their governments have been responsible for a lot of crazy stuff. France has changed very little, they're just more secretive post colonialism

Funny thing is France is still a colonial/imperial power. Just more lowkey/discreet nowadays.

What tiny Belgium did to the Congolese was brutal

This meme about the Waffle fuckers is very accurate:

Japan easily went from insane empire to anime waifu so kawaii in 1 century

Japan easily went from insane empire to anime waifu so kawaii in 1 century

Not even a century just in 40 years

It's between Japan and Belgium. Anybody that is remotely aware of colonialism will grasp France's participation. Belgium definitely rebranded very well, but more and more people are aware of it. Japan on the other hand doesn't even enter the conversation when it comes to colonialism.

In the words of Dave Chappelle: two atomic bombs and them niggas been drawing Hello Kitty ever since

Somalia can rebrand as people with great culture and great movies and food inshallah tired of us being called “banana eaters” or that we belong in the zoo smh

You can also put USA in that list here’s a map of greater USA when they went full colonial bismillah niggas achieved so much land without trying and had slaves all across the country and rebranded as Democratic SJW’s

Japan , their constitution is basically written by Americans . They have been neutralised that’s why there’s a far right wing movement in Japan .

Japanese “empire” is exaggerated, they invaded a bunch of low population poor neighbours. But the method and detail in which they committed genocides is beyond savagery.
