All the masculine genes got filtered in two world wars.

This is an underrated comment. Tens of millions of the best men of Europe were killed off in the world wars. Survivor bias ensured that the survivors were predominantly weak men unsuited for combat. They then passed on their genes, and nature will take its course.

They were saved from being conquered by the muscular energy of the Americans...against whom they never stopped protesting.

It would've been opposite if the war was fought over Burberry giftcards.
