Cnut has articulated himself in an excellent manner throughout and has not deliberately been economical with the truth at all. Even you keep aside non US citizens that were sent to prison camps during that period and look at just the American citizens of Japanese decent and focus on that - then the question remains the same. Why is the California state assembly doing this now?

Absolutely it's a "deeper agenda." Part of the new "woke left" is an attempt to create the appearances of their having a moral-ethical voice that dictates when people should do things and when they should say things. That's simply an attempt to gain power over others.

Part of this is dictating when one group should apologize to another. In this context, facts and truth are in the way, and go out the window. For example, take the argument articulated by Cnut in this thread.

He did not tell you that 1/3 of those put in the camps were Japanese citizens, did he? Most of the others were children of the Japanese citizens.

If there was an actual, serious effort to "make things right" what it would consist of would be to give Asians a fair chance in university admissions There they are still being discriminated against in favor of essentially, racial quotas; eg preference given to blacks with lower test scores, and whites from privileged backgrounds. Oddly it's the same people who try to tell you who needs to apologize to who, and what pronouns you and I should use, that are complicit in the prejudice in college admissions against Asians.

Further, it's highly relevant that 1/3 of the count were Japanese citizens. What should have been done with them? Deport them? Let them do whatever they wanted?
