I think more people should be aware of Unit 731. Japan has done a fantastic propaganda job, labelling themselves as the land of Pikachu and catgirls. But they've also the land of wild racism, WWII human experimentation and brutality towards the people they conquered. And they're unrepentant for what they did.

They wouldn't. CIA was also doing human experiments yet, although we live in a democracy, nobody held them accountable. You see, as long as a government cannot be held accountable by its own people, all bets are off.

CIA controls all western media, so good luck "making people aware".

The CIA is definitely scary. I’m not sure why people reach for old medieval guilds or Ancient desert pantheons to describe an evil unaccountable shadow government when we have the very tangible CIA already there.
