bojacobs, 9 months ago to histodons Excellent critique of the politics of the #Oppenheimer film by esteemed historian Tsuyoshi Hasegawa. Two key takeaways: -the film makes the production and use of the weapons seem "inevitable" -it reinforces the illusion that the nuclear attacks "ended the war" (Hasegawa's work on this elsewhere is definitive) The article is far more detailed that this and worth a read: @histodons #nuclear #Hiroshima #Trinity https://apjjf.org/2023/10/Hasegawa-Oppenheimer.html
