“Waow, they did a bunch of immoral secret experiments, their data must have proved something useful!”

I thought a bunch of our hypothermia knowledge was due to Japan freezing people to death.
I checked the wiki and it wasn’t hypothermia, it was frostbite. It does mention freezing people to death, but it doesn’t mention how useful/used any of the data was.
I don’t know why I thought 731 was responsible for a lot of our understanding of hypothermia.
The data on freezing people actually was a point of contention in the Cold War period! Some scientists thought it should be used, because it was one of the few experiments that was performed with any sort of real rigor, while others said that the ethical concerns of even using data from already-performed unethical experiments of that caliber was beyond the pale.
I don’t think the data was ever used, but it was discussed!
Ok…so I’m going to hell but … Frostbite being a discussion in the COLD WAR … Ok I’ll see myself out
Ok, that matches my memory, right up until the data being used.
I thought they froze people to death, recorded a tonne, there was an argument about whether to use the data (whether using it just encourages other’s to do inhumane stuff to get into the history books, or whatever), and we ultimately did. But we didn’t.
The US loved Nazi scientists… when they worked for the US.

The reason the Japanese were accepted was simply that they offered their data directly to the US rather than keeping it to themselves.

I think some people will tell me why this is cia propaganda, but yeah
Unit 731 Lyrics
I am the last of the dying insane
You would scream at the things I’ve done
Knowing now that the dead still see
My blood it runs like mercury
Your last breath the sword comes down
She dies first speaking death to me
Philosophy, the vision, the view within
Duty, science, abstract crueltyWhat are your final thoughts?
Do you want to kill me or die in shame?
From my point of view
Justified action, the enemy burnsThe fun of massacre in the brain
Bioweapons and I are the same
Look at their face, hatred in their blood
Pile up the dead, my humanity
X-rays burn all that you can see
Nobody knows what a body can stand
Skulls on fire yet mercy is worse
You seek only your pleasure in deathWhat are your final thoughts?
Do you want to kill me or die in shame?
From my point of view
Justified action, the enemy burnsBacterial target, eyes exploding
Melting flesh through your mind
Become your madness insanity wins
Infant’s flesh on the walls
Testing limits threshold of pain
Ripping out teeth to observe
I want bloodKnowing now the dead still see
My blood it runs like mercury
Knowing now the dead still see
My blood it runs like mercury
Knowing now the dead still see
My blood it runs like mercury
Knowing now the dead still see
My blood it runs like mercuryHuman brain experiment
On prisoners open skull
Vivisection, live dissection
Repulsion to the coreWhat are your final thoughts?
Do you want to kill me or die in shame?
From my point of view
Justified action, the enemy burns
Fuckin’ burnPathogens seek horrible end
Churning factories of death
Crematoriums see your crime
You will see me in hellAlso recommending the 1989 Korean series “And So Flows History” (don’t ask me where to find it I saw it once on YouTube and now it’s gone :/ )
