So in the UK we idolise this whole 'Blitz' thing where the Germans were bombing our cities during WW2 yet we kept our resolve. But I heard recently that British and American bombing of Germany during WW2 led to ten times the amount of human casualties as from bombing of the UK. Is this true?

Correct.

Depends on what exactly you consider to be within "the blitz", but yes, strategic bombing over Germany killed about half a million people.

As far as I understand its basically just libertarians with more center left views rather than the usual center right. Ive known a few and honestly not bad people. Not leftist to the point of militant retards but still libertarian enough to generally not give a shit.
>>
>>2243439
It's buzzword used by leftists.

It basically means you are capitalist who doesn't care about enviromnent, workers rights and ethical aspects of economy in general. Only thing you care about is profit for big corporations.

It's neo-classical liberalism, basically dudes from the Chicago school who finally got their big break and ruined all of our futures because they believed in memes.

Enjoy handing over your money to oligarchs - the free market will fix everything in due time once everyone's living standards are equally shitty.

But we discuss history, not a personality cult of Trumpites and rabid nationalism as well as inane conspiracy theories (most of the time) and a habit of blaming Jews and minorities for everything.

Let's be honest, the invention of the nuclear bomb has put forever to rest the idea that human beings are anything other than pieces of irredeemable shit

And if that weren't enough, instead of destroying them after seeing just how completely insane it is to have something like this exist, they are now 50x than the ones dropped on Japan

God doesn't exist
And if He did, he would condemn us all

Fuck this filthy species, and fuck people who keep making excuses for us. No amount of decent people or good deeds will make up for the fact that one day we will all perish in excruciating nuclear flame

Because of the same tired conspiracy theory accusing all the Jews of meeting up in a room somewhere and agreeing on undermining western civilization therefore becoming the puppet master for all of humanity. Oh and also they are the inferior race and don't contribute to society, except for when they do but that's just Jews manipulating everyone and undermining the west.

How long did real swordfights last? How did Musashi win over 100?
42 posts and 1 images submitted.
>>
In battle? In tournaments? one on one? Its a broad question Anon
>>
>>2243133

What he said. A one on one duel or tournament could be over in seconds. This is one of the few times Battle of the Nations can be a good example. Look at some of those videos and watch how explosive it is. From 0 to 100 in seconds. Roughly the same would be possible in a real medieval duel/tournament though they would be aiming at different targets with different intentions.

Battles would depend. Some were the endless slogs you see in all the movies. Others were over before the two armies actually hit each other.

Musashi played dirty and didn't give a shit.

French were retarded with their tanks. They were spread them out along the border and drove them in neat little autistic lines while the Germans swooped in with withly concentrated sstrikes with their weaker tanks.
