Why isn't indoctrination and so-called 'brainwashing' used more often? For example, kids who were forced into sports as children grow up to be fit, sporty people, and it's generally the opposite in children that weren't encouraged by their parents to do sports. It also proved massive effectiveness in Nazi Germany by creating the optimal soldier out of any man. You can literally create the child you want sans genetics.

Why do some people seem to feel so butthurt over the fall of Rome?

While they romanticise a Rome that hadn't existed for hundreds of years.

Just seems a bit daft.

How did the Julian half of the post-Augustus Julio-Claudian dynasty manage to be so universally terrible? Where did those good genes go?

You know, the julio-claudians weren't actually bad, Nero aside (and Caligula if the senate recrds are truthful, but he basically spent his youth being raped by senile Tiberius so his insanity was likely more environmental than genetic).
>>
>>2586337
julius was barely related to augustus (grand uncle or something?) and tiberius was LITERALLY his wife's son.

I still don't know how the julio-claudian are considered

Competent general and administrator, he just couldn't gather the energy to really give a fuck so he handed over government to flatterers, killed said flatterers at the behest of informing flatterers, then spent the rest of his life on Capri being a bad example to
>Caligula
Who saw how the proudest and most ancient families of Rome bent over backwards for Tiberius, so he spends the entirety of his reign making jokes at their expense, leading to his assassination and replacement with
>Cladius
A cripple who swung between competency, senility and being a petty ass to everyone around him. Pretty messed up family life because he was too busy making himself look busy, sent off one wife in a fit of autistic rage and married
>Nero's
Mother, who ruined his life by making him Emperor, then trying to be his Empresses. After getting rid of his mum he was free to act and sing about matricide and style himself after Apollo.

Every Julio-Claudian was fucked up. The only reason Augustus wasn't the same was because he was too busy being a non-entity to inconspicuously gain power. Genetics had nothing to do with his success.

Why is this allowed? I'm not even a sovietboo or a tankie, I absolutely despise Stalin, but I don't understand why Churchill or FDR don't get the same scrutiny for not doing enough.

Before Americans get mad, I'm sorry to tell you, but 90% of fighting happened on the Eastern Front and what you learned in school is historical revisionism. Even Britain contributed more.

He was a mass murderer. He killed lots and lots of people before the Germans attacked. Churchill and FDR were no angels, but as far as I know they never had hundreds of their political opponents tortured.

Anybody else's uni history classes full of Poles, Ukranians, and other shit-tier Eastern Euro countries who do nothing but slander the USSR's legacy and defend fascism?

It's completely ridiculous and ahistorical how they try to put a famine on the same level as a deliberately engineered extermination program, and then go out of their way to downplay the latter and exaggerate the former. Some of them make it sound like Stalin forced clouds not to rain or something.

Resisting US bombing for more than a month in 1999 was quite impressive. I guess maybe they were massacring people in Kosovo, though. Don't know whose propaganda is accurate.

>forget about ideology in a war thats only basis for even starting was said ideology

You're a special kind of stupid. You're aaking for a pragmatic alliance between two very different and competing ideas and sets of values. Yet the only reason Hitler rose to power and the whole reason the war started was over those beliefs.

Hitler allying with Communists would be like trying to get Muslims to ally with Jews. Sure, pragmatically it makes sense, but pragmatism takes a backseat to other values that are seen as more important. And Communists weren't just some force Nazis didn't care about, it was at the top of their shitlist. And to ally with Communists would be to basically say that Nazism was irrelevant because if you sacrifice your anti-Communist stance for pragmatic reasons, you lose any real reason for Nazism to exist since there are equally pragmatic reasons to not even be at war to begin with over an ideology that is so easily sacrificed for convenience.

Dude, it's just a Trail of Tears situation. No forced exiling is pretty, but at least it's not fucking enslavement where missing a fucking rubber quota is punishable under penalty of mutilation or death, or an entire genocide of entire islands for the sake of a nutmeg monopoly.

I know this is going to sound dumb, but what do you think was 'the' turning point in WWII? I always hear people yammer on about Stalingrad, but what about El Alamein? Or Kursk? Is there a single point that could be considered 'the' turning point for the Allies?

No. The Allies had overwhelmingly more manpower and industry to throw around than the Axis. The 'turning point' was some arbitrary point in time when they built up enough guns and planes and tanks and ammunition and other shit to be in the advantage, not any particular battle.
