Why can't we all just get along?
It doesn't have to be a beef, you know.

Is this intentionally trying to make japan look as retarded and backwards as possible or is it
just a coincidence?

That's definitely half of it. This is obviously wartime propaganda, so the US would want the
troops to believe that they were fighting against barbarians to increase morale.
Despite this I think it actually does a good job of depicting japan pre-war. A confusing
amalgamation of progress and tradition.

Pretty much this. American who used to live right outside of Osaka here: it's still a confusing
amalgamation of progress and tradition. I love modern Japan, but prewar? They were fucking
monsters. Jap officers literally ate the livers of downed pilots on one island. (the one near
where GHWB was shot down in his Avenger)

wearing socks in sandals are extremely comfy, denying yourself that is almost as bad as being
vegetarian

Yes, propaganda doesn't have to mean it's not true.
Know Your Enemy from 1944 is absolutely propaganda but it doesn't lie. Japan was worse than
Germany in those days, hard to believe it's the same country today.

But by the standards of Asia, it was futuristic.
Japs figured out they needed a navy, repeating weapons, telephones and mass transit to have a
shot at becoming relevant.
Not bad for a country still practicing feudalism.

why do people care about this? why do they think it doesn't look good?

I disagree. Wearing sandals without socks is far more comfortable. My feet get sweaty and hot in
socks.
