I read Jakarta Method a couple years ago and talking about any single part of the book to people had them shutdown almost immediately.
Its just so fucking heavy. All I can do is drop a bit here or there, “The airforce bombed the north so completely they ran out of targets”, “MacArthur had to have his command of nukes taken away in secret because Eisenhower thought he’d nuke china first if he got wind of them being taken away”. Small facts sometimes get through but string more than one together and they cant handle it.
The whole chapter on the extermination was one of the most chilling things I have ever read.
