Could also be Catholic if hes from the Western American area
Western americans believe in drag queens or buffalos
No thats great plains
La is an exception
Oh you got them wurst
Its like west berlin in east Germany
Oh noes
Stalin did wrong
It's photshopped
Nah it’s legit
I'm not from L.A or moscow
Dayum
It's just fun little event
I miss that event already
Nah thats Germany
Let's work together and re-create the event
:>
The Holocaust probably didn't involve 6 million Jews
Yeah it involved 12 million
Stalin was actually pretty competent diplomacy wise
Funny you mentioned that 
Reliability and spare parts
So...
YOu gonna do it?
Have u checked the #📢・event-announcements
Yes
So you gonna become a event organiser
Oh wait you are
Return the old glory of the event
molotov ribbentrop
Mhm
The idea was for the Soviets to be able to expand without much interference while the Fascists and Capitalists drain each other
In that aspect the Soviets made significant territorial expansion
at the cost of... over 20 million soviets
barb was only possible with the molotov ribbentrop
I really don't see how molotov ribbentrop was bad for the Soviets.
it allowed the nazis to build up before invading them
if they'd fought them day one they'd get poland via occupation and probably more
The Soviets wanted Germans and the Allies to eat each other so they can expand their ideologies sooo
they could of done that without getting half of their industrial capacity occupied
like...
come on
they would've won an early war
I really don't think it would end up well for the Soviets in the long run
At all
Even assuming they do win
I mean the soviets didn't end well in general
Fair enough. But if you think the allies would tolerate Germany under Soviet control
🙂
half of it, the brits and french would also be at war
and the french army would still be quite big so...
Tuna fish
Stalins policy of letting the two sides dry each other out was more than justifiable for the time
No fish
Parties should be abolished in favor of who can break the other's ankles first
Either on a playing field or with a baseball bat
Ishhhh
I remember reading an article back then on how the F-35s single engine design isn't that much of an issue considering how reliable it is compared to older engines
A trend which is mostly true for newer aircraft engines
But then I can't speak much for the A-10
As for spare parts
Well I have no idea how huge the difference is between maintaining a stealth aircraft vs a conventional one
But it could be argued that the F-35 saves on resources by combining the capabilities of 4 different airframes to just one aircraft
Not really
The Germans got crazy lucky in France
iirc Stalin went like "wtf" after hearing the Germans won that fast XD
It's actually a pretty good move for the Soviets
They got a huge chunk of territory
You could also argue that the extra space the soviets had bought them time and made German logistics worse in Barb
facist italy can be justified
Wdym

the italians didnt even care about mussanlini when the allied forces landed
They used gas
that's not even true
Not rlly
the citizens didnt care
Yes they did
He was not as popular but still very relevant
A lot of them were either pro or anti
there were reports of citizens handing gifts to allied soldiers
Yes... because not everyone were fascists
exactly
Thats because they didnt like mussolini not because they didn't care
How is it justified then?
lemmee rephrase that
The Italians used mustard gas in ww2
they can be justified because citizens didnt care or were affected by mussolini's actions, unlike stalins purge
They definitely were affected
and it affected other populations
especially in the final years of the regime
do you not notice the words citizens
where they'd burn down entire villages
The citzens weren't affected by a facist dictatorship that took part in a war changing the lives pf many?
I didnt know that
they were drafted in wars, sent to die for a cause most of them probably didn't even believe in
^^^
how is that justified?
well...they werent forcefully drafted, unlike citizens of the soviet union
Caught in 4k
Ah yes, you could either show up or... be shot
yayyy
so much choice

Cya
I mean you cant really expect to win a debate where you explain how a fascist dictatorship is justified

Agreed
Here we go again
"No reason"
Yes, literally no reason
No GOOD reason
for either not agreeing, being of a different ethnicity or not wanting to die
Of course I wouldn't support their genocide in Ethiopia but the Fascist state overall was better than both socialism and liberalism.
Enforcement of ideology isn't all bad
Kinda ironic since Mussolini tried to escape military service
yeah three times
I'm not a socialist 
You don't need to be a socialist to be killed by mussolini
Why yes shoot people that aren't fascist
Totally not bad
I know but my point is that he was an effective ruler. Not always moral or just but effective.
Effective?
How was he effective?
The right wing of today is weak and does nothing but capitulate to the left. I do not support genocide or murder but you gotta admit that Mussolini won total political control in Italy and crushed his enemies. That's not bad.
He was popular in his early years but not that effective
That's why he was overthrown?
That's what happens when you lose a world war
He was overthrown by the king though
He was an effective statesman at first
Because he lost the war
the majority of soldiers didn't join his side
He was effective at seizing power not too sure at being a statesmen
partisans rose up and Mussolini gave up Italy to the germans
Because he was pretty much a German puppet at that point
Also if you want your right wing to be a totalitarian economic shithole then sure
Authoritarian. Not totalitarian.
he was totalitarian
quite literally
kind of his whole thing
nothing outside, nothing against the state
He gave some freedoms to the church. I'm not saying I'm a fascist or that I support everything that Mussolini did but some things he did right.
Ah yesm by arresting priests 
By creating the Vatican
Yeah, and he made sure it was an independent entity. I'm Catholic. Of course it existed before Mussolini.
He cracked down on any opposition
No, he recognised that it was an independent city
Based ngl
And declared all political parties illegal
Including many priests who were against the regime
Entity City same thing
Based
You're stupid
You stand up for your enemies
Are you like 10?
Average liberal be like
Yes, they have a right to say what they want
you're either stupid or willfully ignorant
Enlightenment ideals are pretty retarded
until you get arrested
then suddenly you'll like having toes
They laid the ground work for the majority of modern Europe
Rights existed before the enlightenment lol
And even the US
Yeah. Modern Europe sucks.
And South america
human rights were not a thing no
Sadly

Yk that includes facist italy right
Human dignity existed. You must have a flawed interpretation of the medieval age.
top 3 countries per development
Yeah, even fascism has many modernist and enlightenment elements.
Ah yes, the dignity of being burned alive for being a jew
For non minorities
and not giving a confession was a crime
In Spain under Ferdinand and Isabella you could be a Jew if you didn't try to convert any Christian. You definitely have a flawed view of the middle ages.
Based
Were taking about Italy tho
I'm not talking about isolated cases
And Germany now
That was the norm lol.
no it was not
Now we're talking about the merits of the enlightenment I guess
So you don't think people have a right to be innocent?
It most certainly was. Jews have been kicked out of 109 countries not because Europe was evil and anti semetic but because their customs, usury, go against the laws of those nations.

they weren't just kicked out
and it still doesn't make it ok
Innocent until proven guilty was in large part put into place because of Saint Louis IX. A medieval monarch.
Don't break the law don't get removed from the country
that's why "witches" for example were tortured for a confession
some laws are unjust
Witchcraft certainly exists and not many people were imprisoned for being bewitched, contrary to what modern history curriculum suggests.
I'm referring to laws against usury
Not all jews were bankers 
Yes. That's not the only reason as to why they were removed. Have you ever heard of the Jewish sacrifices of North Italy?
There are many Catholic child martyrs who were killed by Jews for sacrifice.
they were not only imprisoned but murdered under false confessions
what's next? the protocols of the elders of Zion? the jews started the plague?
That did happen. Not every justice system is perfect. They didn't kill thousands of them though.
Alr back
No, I'm just stating history. Not conspiracy theories.
right... "history"
They used mustard gas on Ethiopia in ww2
witches
he's saying the medieval justice system was better than today's because smth smth far right the jews
And Ethiopia used literal swords and spears with small tanks and tankettes and firearms
@azure barn damn, "history" right?
Bros using Wikipedia as a source 💀
I'm using it as a definition
It literally happened
It's not reliable at all
your sources include king faisal of saudi arabia, nazi germany and the spanish inquisition
so wiki is more reliable than these nutjobs
For big events
Its actually accurate dor smaller events
For*
No, but the Spanish Inquisition is valid.
We've gotten off the Italian topic a while ago
In modern Western media, the Inquisition is often portrayed as a case of Christianity being a cruel religion. Wild exaggerations of events have led many people to associate the institution with mass executions and endless torture. However, this popular narrative has been largely refuted by modern historians, and is based on centuries-old lies an...
Youtube as a source
Yeah, he seems to have more historical insights than you do.
Many things since you left
medieval repression of jews and other scapegoats
Alr
"Scapegoats"
Jews always get repressed
He's a frustrated reactionary 
he doesn't even cite academic sources
What's wrong with that? I'd trust a reactionary conservative over a secular liberal.
He thinks they deserved it
he's not a conservative
Why do you think Jews have been kicked out of 109 countries?
Not a modern neoconservative no
he's a russophilic integralist
I haven't heard of integralism much
and by Russophilic I mean pro putin, he doesn't give two shits about the Russian people
Anti semitism
I know that means pro Russia
Because it's easy to blame someone else than to solve the fucking problem
Why did they hate the Jews?
read above
They hated the Jews because they were anti semetic and they were anti semetic because they hated Jews. Circular reasoning.
Bc someone decides to blame a minority for the problems of a nation and the jews end up blamedthe most
Totally not because they cause many of the problems
No, something bad happened, since they didn't have functioning model of the world they blamed it on a small group of individuals who seemed to be better off than them
What caused their anti semitism

"you believe in something else than I do so you are a problem and must be murdered, tortured and kicked out"
They weren't ignorant to how the world worked lol
yes they were
your average peasant couldn't even read
You are not enlightened compared to them
I know how to read
Yet they understood the world better than you
Let me check if they managed to put a rocket on the moon real quick
The first rocket was created the Nazis you think are backwards
Blud they thought the earth was the center of the universe
What are u talking about
First rocket was Chinese
No? that's the first guided missile. And nazis were not backwards, they were quite modern in their violence and hate
No. That was disproven back in the 1100s and widely accepted to by false.
*widely accepted by the academia
not by the peasants
Back in the 1100s??!!
And the church
the church counted as academia back then 
Yeah? They started going off of Greek models of the universe around then.
jesus christ you don't know shit about medieval society
And the peasants were expected to adhere to church teaching.
the mass was given in latin 
Not the homilies
They had the first rocket
The Chinese had the first rocket
May have not been a space rocket
But had a rocket
Homilies were a part of the mass during the middle ages
oops
no it wasn't
moron
And it was anglican
not catholic
so your point doesn't even make sense
and proves as stated before that you do not know what you are talking about
Do you know what a homily is
yes
Then you'd know that they've been in the church far before the 1500s
besides you haven't even prove that medieval peasants knew they weren't the centre of the universe
Indeed and they had no idea until the scientific revolution
but they didn't talk about the earth not being the centre of the universe
so let's recap what you've said so far:
Jews deserved to be killed and kicked out
Jews kill (christian) babies
Witchcraft is real and witches got what they deserved
Fascist Italy was great
Medieval peasants had a better model of the universe than we do today

Imma guess that he left
he's still on the server (until he gets banned that is)
Ik i meant left the conversation
I don't care that they didn't know advanced physics. They had a better world view and understood the nature of humanity better because it was centered around God and the Catholic Intellectual Tradition. Of course we understand the natural world better now but they better understood the supernatural. I don't know if you guys value that or not though.
Murder isn't justified but Jews are not completely innocent as many believe.
It was / is real.
Fascist Italy isn't great or ideal but it was better than the decedent west.
They have a better world view. Not a better scientific model.
Ok kid drink your milk and go to bed
What kind of response is that? I wouldn't expect anything else from someone who looks up to a revolutionary tbh.
Someone who doesn't want to waste their time with someone who will be banned within the following weeks
Here we go again round 3
Oh well. Why does everyone get so worked up over the Jewish question?
Speaking of censorship
it's not public property
I hope you don't mind living in a concentration camp
If he was such an effective ruler why did he get overthrown?
Hitler and Stalin were effective…
That tends to happen when you lose a world war
Mussolini was much different than those two
Why is this always the response to the right wing actually using authority to win in politics?
Both were effective tho
Not those Zouaves
I get your point. Not every effective leader is moral or good.
best Zouaves
Mussolini had the potential to be a force for good (or at least good-ish). Historian AJP Taylor says that he was pretty much 50/50 about which side he would be on (Britain/France or Germany), but he ended up chosing Hitler
I think he could have ended up good, but he didnt go that way
I can agree to that. He could have defended Engelbert Dollfuss and Austria from the Nazis but didn't and became a near puppet to the Germans. He wasn't all bad but definitely not all good either.
well i guess i missed round 4
It ended amicably this time and wasn't a long heated debate like I had with you and the other guy
the short end
to a long war
Indeed. Pretty much because I conceded that Mussolini has some good things about him and not so good things about him.
- Right wing aren't always oppressive assholes
- If it's okay to jail and kill your opponents and in general strongarm your politics, why do you hate socialism so much? They also liked those methods of gaining power
Well it was his fault for not properly preparing his nation for it, taking a side of Germany, expanding themwar by invading Greece, and begginning the Holocaust after being reinstated to power by Nazis, not to mention that his persecution of opponents is what led to armed partisans capturing him the second time and killing him
The fuck is this take
It'd be funny as shit if we could just ban you for such a bullshit opinion
Because most of the time they were a convenient scapegoat, a minority of people with different religion and culture to the majority, and the one that was institutionally established to be hostile by the Church.
Pin material
watch him run the gauntlet lol
I think hilter just wanted a glass of juice
then i‘ll just force you into sillism
Because socialists are the enemy?
Which would only prove my point further
You share the methods of governance
So you're fine with us banning you 
Sharing governance with those who hate everything I value doesn't seem like the best idea
If this be a liberal server then yeah
Huh, really, who would've thought!
Yeah, so I don't see the issue with winning in politics and beating your enemies
"Aw man i cant believe they hate my facist ideals, it only killed what? Millions of people?"
Das crazy bro, what better way to sow dissent among the populace by creating an oppressive regime
Liberalism and communism have killed far more
Sooner or later such system of non compliance would collapse
We already have that
This machiavellian mode of leadership is outdated as shit
Liberalism didnt, but communism did but you know thats a mute point right? Because the only reason they killed more was bc facism lasted less
And no one even counted how many were killed under monarchism!
Bro must have read The Prince once and then proclaim it like holy bible of politics!
I think you're confusing national socialism with fascism. And yes, liberalism has killed the most people out of all of these ideologies.
is he a commie or smth?
One, define liberalism, 2 where are the statistic, e nacional socialism and facism are virtually the same thing
The Fascists of Mussolini still resorted to terror tactics to antagonize their opponents
He literally defended Holocaust
What a peaceful society
He is a facist
where?
Ehhhhhh not really
The Italian fascists didn't place a huge emphasis on the jews unlike National socialism
Like scroll up and you'll see where he was talking about Jews allegedly sarcaficing babies
He also mentioned that jews were at fault for what happened to them or smth like that
Imagine justifying mass murder
Very crazy take for anyone to take
It must have taken more than two brain cells to come up with that one
"Liberalism killed far more"
The Nazis managed to kill tens of millions in the span of a few years
Crazy shit if you ask me
Abortion alone has killed more people world wide than fascism and communism combined
I'm not defending that
Not every liberal democracy permits abortions
Dying has killed more people too!
Allegedly?
@jade skiff could you link us the messages about his defense of the holocaust
Here is one of them, basically saying that the jews brough their abuse over the centuries on themselves @fair hearth
And if you scroll up from there
Yeah it gets progressively worse
Okay, i probably exadurated, but he had comments like these
Being locked up in moms basements surely does crazy things to a person
Not every fascist government committed genocide
Really good argument
It's a statement
Federal State of Austria would beg to differ. I'm not even a fascist lol.
Learn the difference
Yet every single one heavily persecuted any opposition with inhumate methods
Name me the one that didn't
Not necessarily. Nationalist Spain and Austria did it right.
He's just an edgy kid who thinks inhumane acts should be legalized
Imagine being against abortion but supporting the holocaust
Like
Nationalist Spain, really
Where the fuck is the consistency here?
Never said I supported the Holocaust. Where are you even getting this?
100%
Crazy victim mentality here bro
I probably would've been killed by the NatSocs tbh
That is not a high bar
Yeah. Killed the communists who raped nuns and murdered priests.
Murder is the solution!
And how many of those do you think were actually guilty?
Please tell me ur joking with this
Yikes
What a denial
So much for "not being a facist"
And he says he doesn't support the holocaust
The dude fr fr has contradicting arguments
Blatant liar
like idk since it says "Controversial Opinions" and he could've been meming
but if not, that's fucked
I think
He's fucking not
Yeah
Are you denying that the allies committed war crimes as well? No ideology is prefect and I don't condone murdering everyone I disagree with. Nationalist Spain is still preferable to the allies.
Wow wow when did I say this
Get your glasses cleaned
You didn't. I'm saying every nation in WW2 committed atrocities and I don't support everything that any side did.
Then why the fuck did you ask if I was
Reason: Genocide Denial
Yep
Savage Tree Griffin
Also wtf is this bruh
One more fascist bites the dust
Blud just said strongarming political opponents is fine
he was backed into a corner
Then says he doesn't support murder which is contrary to his belief
this
Dude not only that makes no sense as nobody brought the allies but himself, but that is basically standard wehraboo behaivour to downplay and even outright justify nazi attrocities
And tbf, allied warcrimes pale in comparison to the systematic and industrial murder the Nazis exercised
Yeah
The entire regime supported itself on a foundation of hate and tolerated violence to sustain it
No sane person would defend the Nazis
Like yeah nobody denies that the allies did warcrime but that is whatabaoutism at is finest cause in no way shape or form we ever brought up the allies powers, and besides that they are not comparable to nazi attrocities in the slightest
Lmao
Fascists get the boot lmao
@fair hearth @remote hazel i still think it should be a good idea to like archive this channel to avoid future issues like this one
Yeah I have the same thoughts as well, this channel quickly gets out of hand when there are no mods around
Pretty epic bait channel ngl and something to kill the boredom XD
why did BlueBubba make this
I love seeing online extremists get kicked
He probably thought that it would be like small things yk like "o i think the F15 is overrated" or smth
I love seeing extremists get kicked irl
yeah I love kicking them irl(On LiveLeak)
Bro wasn't even an extremist
He's a casual defending extremist ideologies 💀
Pathetic as shit
Like goddammit, if you want to choose such a controversial and unpopular take at least be well versed in it
The world isn't kind to idiots
Mfers will really say “but the allies did war crimes 2!!!1!1” like no shit Sherlock it’s almost like it’s hard to keep a massive army under control during an invasion of another country
I think the Hungarians get too much hate for what they got in ww2
They were promised coastal lines of Yugoslavia when they entered the war yet were refused later on
They tried jumping ship, and failed
Where do you find them
He's gone, he lasted less than I thought he would
There’s another one in fireside
who is it? 
hungarian people and flags on the beach is such a cursed thought
They still got most of Transilvania, Southern Slovakia and Banovina though
Crusader fascists moment
where'd you put the rest of the world's toptier espionage agencies?
as of 1990
Personally the Brotherhood of Assassins beats them all
who'd win in Classical Antiquity:
Prince of Persia Assassins or Brotherhood of Assassins
What about Crypteia
Hmmm lets see
The elite club: KGB, MOSSAD
The Great club: CIA, FSB, MI6, RAW
The Good club: NSA, CSIS
The Meh club: ABIN, ISI
Obvsiouly there are a lot ive left out but off the top of my head
W RAW
The Nine Unknown were much better
ISI is pakistan right?
Yep
aight
never heard of them imma do some reasearcg
research*
If you go till there, then I would say probs Task force 141 beats
That is ofc, without Shephard
9 unknown are Mauryan right?
The local marites outperforms them all 
the pambansang susans 
Tf 141 was not an Intel agency tho
I'd agree if they were given Slovakia or full of Transilvania tbh
Hungarians were still given ways more than any other Hitler's allies in expense of those allies
I'd say this one goes to Italy actually
It was sorta both ig?
Both intel and assassination
I mean depends if your taking in Laswell as a part of it
i always thought of it more as Spec ops combat unit akin to Delta Force
So more of a secret services type?
That's what i always thought of
more of a covert ops than an espionage agency
if 141 was made to take down the most dangerous successor of Zakhaev, Kingfish
Tis channel a headache for the moderation team lol
That means its fun for us lol

You‘re goddamn right
without them he would go broke...
Same thing can be argued with communism
That it's human nature that ruined it

after all, forsaken otakus must be justly tried
forsaken

And leave it like that

Can’t allow that
we gotta have to at least solve something and put the confusion to rest, no?
The solution is no anime 
How about Ecchi
Panther F was a good tank.
fuck the ira
people applaud the ira for getting irelands freedom,then the ira bombs innocent people in london,BUT WHEN WE DO THE SAME
Fun policing
So Joeover
Tl:dr, comment section become something reminiscent to that of a World war battlefield or the Yugoslav war, instead of violence it was over politcs and Soviet Union
Best amendment since the 21st
the british empire and prussia caused the most peace in europe
Just give em Northern ireland and then problem solved
Then its probably gonna be an Irish civil war then
NEVER
oh ok
Between protestants and catholics
Irish civil war would be interesting to watch
The 7 years war was the first world war, the great war was the second, ww2 was the third. The trilogy is over which is why we haven't had another one for a long itme
that wasnt really a world war unless you count the Haitian revolution, War of 1812, and British Invasion of Java
but still wasnt really that much of a world war
mostly stayed in Europe
Seven Years War bros
a world at war, but not a world war
Britain would be better off had they peaced out from WW2 after the French surrendered
How come?
Just letting Germany singlehandedly dominate all of Europe?
They would not lose the military bases to the US and probably get to keep their position as one of the great powers instead of losing their title to the US
There is still the Soviets though
Germany unlike the Soviets is geographically set to challenge British naval dominance. They already proved to be a lethal threat to British trade during the war even with a neglected Kriegsmarine, it's best to keep the pressure on Germany while it's still weak
British industry can never match the US
Still though
Britain post ww2 is a shadow of its former self and has given up most of its titles and signicifance to the US.
Not even mentioning the sort of destruction to their homeland caused by the Blitz.
A Britain aligned with Germany would just set them up against the US
The RN is just too much of an expensive force to maintain for a country the size of Britain
homegrown and tested, as is tradition
to pin the lucrative markets of the world from securing their home waters
should the traditions of the Royal Navy give credit to their prior precursors among the Normans or Norsemen and Saxons?
Well, they have been doing it before the war.
Not saying Britain will be aligned to Germany
Eventually they'd have to instead of having another naval arms race with Germany again
They could also be pulled to an alliance with the US in such context though
That was one of the main reasons they tried to go with appeasement and it failed
His main focus was eliminating the Western front entirely so that everything is concentrated on the Eastern Front
That is of course if by some miracle Oswald Mosley pulls off a Munich 2.0
Eh, BUF was never even a remotely powerful party though, i honestly don't know what should've happened for them to gain any political significance
True, but then again in the early days no one considered NSDAP as a remotely powerful party did they?
Look how that turned out later on
NSDAP enjoyed steady and rapid growth, unlike BUF
That is true mainly because NSDAP like the other radical political parties had the advantage of taking in people with the promise of bringing back Germany it’s former glory
BUF didn’t have any starting advantage
Also the growth of NSDAP truly started after Munich. The period of time between drexler and Munich 1923 was really a period where someone would just join in to have the opportunity to bear arms against the gov
It wasn’t proper substantive growth
That growth started after 1924 when they entered parliamentary politics
Those circumstances were unique to Germany though
Exactly, which is the reason BUF didn’t take off. If the people don’t have a reason to hate the government and not support it, why would they revolt? In Germany they had tons, mainly because of Stressmann and TOV
That’s why it took off, that’s why Spartacists took off very early on as well
But the problem of Spartacists was that since Rosa Luxembourg died, the entire faction was completely unorganised
The main reason as to why totalitarianism rose in such countries to begin with was that they were either losers of the Great War or left the war deeply unsatisfied
But we also can’t completely rule out BUF either. Because during that time, communism and other forms of right wing extremism was on the rise as well. So it would have just been a matter of time to see which extremist side would triumph
In this context only Turkey really didn't fall into becoming an aggressive totalitarian regime amongst the participants of WW1
Bro forgot Mustafa Kemel
Kemal wasn't aggressive.
Nor totalitarian in the levels of his supposed counterparts
If Kemal was actually like aforementioned he would not have stopped at Thrace and would continue fighting the Greeks who now had their whole army in shambles after the great Turkish offensive at Asia Minor.
Amen
Don't you think that's going a bit too much into hypotheticals?
Agreed
Wdym by this
Nah, it invisble that's it

So just twr
Italy has never been effective in warfare since the Roman Empire, change my mind
Gods punishment to the antiquities of ancient rome was turning them into Italians

I'm no tankie, but I'd argue collectivisation and the Five Year Plans saved the Soviet Union in the long term.
Don't get me wrong. The Holodomor was absolutely shameful. But without the grain produced from the collectivised farms, there would have been no produce to sell to the West. Without Western capital, there wouldn't have been any way for the USSR to industrialise, at least not on the scale that it did. Without industrialisation, the Soviet Union would have just been a sitting duck for the Nazis. Stalin saw his brutal atrocities against the Russian and Ukrainian people as a necessary evil to ensure the USSR's continued survival. Whether or not you support his actions, at least you can understand why he chose to do it.

Huh
same thing
if 5 year plan is justifieble, so is cultral rev
im split between your argument, and how western histoeians disribe the event
i agree with stalin
but also disagree
Never said it was justified. I just argued that the USSR was never going to survive if they didn't.
Presenting another perspective doesn't necessarily mean I agree with that perspective.
I could easily say "Stalin bad" and call it a day, but a student of history should never fall into that trap.
Pretty sure the Cultural Revolution in China hurted the CCP more than it did. Plus errrrr the Cultural Revolution isn't some economic program
You might be thinking of the Great Leap Forward
Plus it's a pretty dumb take to think that the deaths of millions are necessary for economic growth when said manpower are the workers themselves
What Lord mentions about the USSR Five year plans does have some merit to it though. There is however the problem that the Soviet Five Year plans were terribly inefficient in making use of their resources despite the quick progress they've made
Less people to feed cuz so many died

Pretty debatable if it was worth starving the entire Ukraine
oh yea

Ah, I see we have encountered a rather uncouth individual. However, as a noble knight of the alternate past, I shall not stoop to such levels of vulgarity. Instead, I shall offer you a piece of advice: let us engage in civil discourse and elevate our conversation to a higher standard. Now, how may I assist you on this fine day?

One of the first wars where France and Britain purposely fought across the globe
if blm is an organization, i don't have to support it
wilhelm II of germany was a cool guy
WHY IS IT SO LAUD!! SISPHUS EARAPE
gilded spiked helmet and luxury trench coat. truly a man of culture. Not even the gold chain and supreme shirt can beat it

"ww1 tanks were effective" mfrs
not only that,he didnt like the world war
Trench coats kinda pog
Highly recommend to buy a luxury one second handed and in good condition
Treaty of Versailles was in fact good, the problem was how they enforced it
Nahhh
TOV was flawed from the start, designed for revenge and to start another world war
Any peace treaty from the 19th and 20th century including a winner and a vanquished has this problem, because of new ideals such as nationalism
And remember, this wasn't a small war, this cost the lives of millions
Devastated french and belgian heartlands
Venice, Genoa?
Italian troops under german command?
I disagree
Italians were pretty scary in the seas after the Romans as well for example
Venice comes to mind.
Sure they weren't massive empires like the Germans, Turks etc.
But that doesn't mean they suck at combat by any means.
Imagine relying on discerning a historical region's military to a user who won't live in reality
Italy did not suffer in the Guelph-Ghibelline wars for being ignorantly rendered ineffective in medieval or early modern warfare
the U.S. has the best drip in ww2
Nah, the soviets would've been able to conquer continental europe making the cold war easy for the soviets
true other than the ss
No
Not the ss
Id say the Scots had best drip
huh,i wonder why you'd pick them,HMMMMMM
Nah late ROC uniforms had the best drip
Basically the same but with white star symbol
Or French Resistance, they had good drip
British + American Paratroopers had best drip in my opinion
82nd all the way
Ss are nazis, and no, their stupid black uniform that stood out pike a sore thumb was not drippy
Waffen SS didn't really wear black in combat
They used either feldgrau or one of their camoflage patterns
bro,i am able to say what UNIFORMS i like
Stalin Bunny suit
I think SS look cool aside from the whole “I want to kill your family” vibe
💀🥵
Run into battle with a kilt, 🔥
Yessir

You have bad taste
Unbased. Dark Grey is ugly
Sus
We cannot let the A 10 fanboy have an opinion
My grandpa farts better than that
Might see service in Israel who knows
Dark grey is one of my favorite colors, and I disagree.
American paratroopers looked cooler. Quit simping for the walking human rights violation.
And shot down
Unlikely.

Also the US may get involved who knows?
They already said something along the lines of, we will provide CAS
Yea but there is nothingvstopping us from desertstorm phase 1ing them
Su 25 better
Who cares. Nazis look stupid
Thisvtemmed from an argument about nazi uniforms
F 35 better
No they didn't, not simping for them because they're walking human rights violations, simping for them because of the stahlhelm
Brody helmet looked better
LOL
The only reason Arabs managed to come out utterly humiliated from the Arab Israeli wars during the Cold War was due to Arab Armies having an battle IQ below room temperature.
israel has plot armor
But it look like funny cowboy hat
And funny pan
And frisbee
3 in 1
take away the vibe and you got the sick uniform,i just like the SS symbol,along with the dark colours
bruh then thats just star wars commander uniform
mig 21 = chad
Not really
average 5 year old explaining why f 22 and f 35 is best (a bird can take one out)
Really maneuverable gighter the mug 21 is, awful systems, awful compatiblinilitym awful platform
a little training and improvising and the problems are gone
welds hardpoints onto jet
How do you improvise radar and new systems. There shouldn't be a need to improvise
ummm
take apart the jets nose
and replace radar
thats what the romainians did with the mig 21 bis
though mig 27 nd 29 are better options
same
Thats sexy too
Midget
but im not wrong
ireland is in the british isles
:)
HEHEHEHE
Britain is Wales, England, a Scotland. Not even British northern arguement
Yeah but that doesn’t make it part of Britain
Britain Airstrip one
i said british,i never said they were apart of the uk
Fair enough
this is how you duke people,dare i say,duke of wellington
Isle of Man just chillin in the middle
I demote you into baronet 
YOU TRAITOR
British isles is its own thing. British is the island
Island accent
North Western Roman Empire
So the British Empire was the Empire of the North Western Roman Empire? A Sub-empire of an empire in a way
Usa barley helped in wwi
What was that?
Yeah
Yeah what?
If usa didn’t do anything nothing would change
Except treaty of Versailles would have been stronger
So if the USA did not enter, then France and the uk would still be able to win?
Well that didn’t threaten germany.
Italy wouldn’t be able to get a border with Germany.
The blockade was
Would’ve starved them out eventually
They shouldn't be involved in the first place
Plus if Austria Hungary and Bulgaria were taken out, The Germans would have a huge problem in the South
The Americans put more effort into this war then they should have
The greek would have helped a lot too.
“We only need the goods thank you very much”
And they did speed up this war
The only American Unit that really helped was the Harlem hell fighters
...
Why only them?
Cus they were with the French
Well the other units did help the French as well, later in the war but they still helped.
If America wasnt involved the Spanish Flu wouldnt have spread as much, not saying that it wouldnt at all
Caurasius Roman Empire 🤮
lol
@kind compass
??? i disagree the wehrmacht was NOT one of the greatest forces and did NOT have the best tactics
also tanks sucked lol
Time-frame 26 seconds in
Idngaf
then why even send it if you dont care
"omg omg he thinks the germans had a nice uniform he must be a nazi!1!1!1"
"mods ban!"
no lol
im glad the germans lost
"as you can see, this person liking a specific genre of fashion makes him an extremist nazi and therefore he should be executed"
I know the wehrmacht often exterminated Jews & other minorities ALONGSIDE the SS
As well as raping women and children
And that they were doomed from the start
So no im not a wehraboo
nah the wehrmacht was sucky
Leonardo De Vinci is the smartest person on earth
I know right
USAboos can't deal with the fact that they weren't the saviours
What i cant deal with is the fact that we helped at all
The U.S. shouldve just let Europe fight
And become diplomatically irrelevant?
Yes
of what?
That's not the point
Zimmerman telegram was an insult to the USA.
Lusitannia and the submarine warfare to
warfare is legal
unrestricted subwars that discriminate suspected civilian vessels (cruisers and merchant marines) are not
we should have done something that wasnt war
cause after ww1 we got more involved in europe
and it's not our problem
This is literally the reason why you became a world superpower
ik, and now we have to deal with superpower-ness
How sad
lenins idea of a communist russia was pretty good
We just need to try again
💀💀💀
what are you suggesting then? A space race with Weimar Germany?
WW1 Europe without ANY American support. Shows a completely different world. Without American economic and material support. Europe goes into economic collapse with potentially a longer war
