Horny History: WWII Skull Trophies
It’s real history, as told by some horny dude in my inbox and me.
This post contains sensitive content on sadistic violence, as you might have guessed by the title. Reader discretion is advised.
Before we start this one, yes!
There were indeed brave American men that fought against tyrannical, horrible men in WWII. There were also fucked up blood lusting American men. Men that rejoiced in and made games of the bloodshed. This is a story about the latter.
For some reason, (American blind nationalism), when I talk about bad things soldiers have done, people want to scream, “SUPPORT THE TROOPS.” As if, that means we should support the brave and depraved equally.
No.
If you’re unfamiliar with The History Channel and its “history” shows, you’re not going to get the last line. Explaining jokes is never funny though, so in darkness you’ll stay.
This racist hatred of others surmounting in the desire to destroy them isn’t unique to soldiers. Many men, given the power to hurt anyone of Japanese descent, took it. The U.S. government imprisoned 127,000 American people of Japanese heritage during World War II.
To acknowledge the angry patriots that may inevitably read this, yes Japanese soldiers were inhumane too. I don’t use one man’s disgusting behaviors as an excuse for other men acting that way.
If you’re reading this, please give this a ♥️ for me to help me boost my stats here.

My area had a large Japanese population at the time, and they (and various other Asians that resembled them) were rounded up and carted off to internment camps and had their property seized by the government, including many family farms. Lots of memorials etc now.
