Germans knew how to get rid of illegal aliens. I'll give them that.

This is not a world of good guys and bad guys. This is just a world of people. When we're fat and comfortable, we sit around talking about moral philosophy; and when we're stressed and hungry, we eat each others' fucking children.

Is there a famine in Russia?

Economic stagnation. They had a massive economic crash in 2013-2014, and basically they're at 2008 levels while almost every other country is increasing.

Crime is rampant, addiction is rampant, corruption is at levels where the government is no help to anyone and basically just thieving from the public.

And there's a sense - partly paranoia, partly well-earned - that this is all because of one NATO move after another after another to fuck them. That every year, NATO makes them poorer and weaker, and eventually will just manufacture a pretext to come in and take their country.

So, yeah, they're super stressed. Under better circumstances, as we well know, Russia has produced many of the world's finest writers, artists, musicians, scientists, philosophers - it's not a civilization of bad guys.

I think this is the case in every country. The opposite is only believed by people without any knowledge, like children and people with IQs below 120.

There were also, I presume, very fine people on both sides

Interesting you don't mention England in the war when referring to speaking English. Or are all kids these days taught that it was just Murica Vs the world? 🙄

To be fair it makes the question easier to answer.

The USA stayed out of the war until they were personally attacked. They didn't start shit, they finished it.

From 1935-1945 the US murdered more people than Nazi Germany, what do you think.

"No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country." - George Patton

So true, Patton would know as he was just a desk jockey sitting far away in a safe location.

Germany.

germany...hands down.

they ended banking usury...would have ended communism and united Europe under Christendom.

A series of false flags got us into WW2...RMS Lusitania (filled with ammunition), pearl harbor same as the RMS Lusitania...(the same of USS Liberty)

Patton was right, we fought the wrong enemy.

The school books are tranny books...that are the same "tranny" books they burned in germany...

obviously, germany....why is this even being asked
