"Asuka is best girl"

it's one of the most astonishing movies ever made

You cheeky wanker

Has to be seen to be believed. A glorious experience

Stalingrad (1993 or thereabouts) is okay.

Come and See is a bit heavy and "artsy" (like, not a usual "war movie") but pretty powerful.

Enemy at the Gates is a fun watch but a bit of an abomination when it comes to history.

Stalingrad (the new one) is a weird one, it is fun but it is a cgi-heavy "unrealistic" movie, a bit like a prolonged video game cutscene.

Ahh thanks I'll check them out!

how so? its one of my families classics (fathers side)

Beevor is OK.

David Glantz is better.

>>1685066
He seems like a great author. Currently reading his book, Berlin 1945, and it's pretty great.

>>1685066
He's a meme author/historian who favors personal stories and anecdotes from the ground level, so he's not a very reliable academic source.

>>1685213
Very different in terms of style, focus, and sources compared with Beevor. The only thing they have in common is they both write about WWII.

What Hitler did wrong is a very very long book.
A shorter book would be what he did right.

Honest question.

Why did he wear that mustache style? Besides Micheal Jordan he's the only person I've ever seen with that style. Was it a popular style at the time or something? Is there a name for it besides "hitler 'satsch"?

>>1684989
I predict there will be tons of shitposting and arguing ITT. Reply to this later if i was right.

>Why is he considered a bad guy when he did good things?

John Wayne Gacy entertained lots of kids, and he only murdered a few dozen. Guess he was a good guy overall?

>The only error is that he sided with Hitler

That's the stand-out mistake but there are lots of smaller missteps. Mussolini was a smart guy but he lacked the head for politics, he was an artist not a leader.

>You would've done the same!

Yeah no, I would have kept out of all entangling alliances and devoted my attention to gassing Arabs and colonizing Libya.

If only he had gone to war against Germany on the wake of Dollfuss's assassination, he'd now be hailed as one of the best statesmen of the 20th century for he'd have accomplished more in his life than anyone else

>>1684923
Germany's loss was more due to internal political factors than the battlefield.

>>1684928
Sure
Must be the kikes, Hitler said so

>My question is, did the central powers have any chance of winning the war at the beginning of 1918 Spring offensive? Or at least give them upper hand during the negotiations.
Winning the war? Certainly not. Most of the ground they gained was either useless, or bought at too high a cost -- which is extremely important, because at this point in time, they do not have manpower reserves, supplies, food, you name it, they don't have it. Also remember that at this point the mutinies are a thing of the past and the French morale is quite vigorous, the quote about fighting in front of/in/behind Paris by Foch (or Clemenceau, nobody really knows) is a good illustration of the spirit at the time. What the Germans might have done is push a few (dozen) miles further, but in that they would only exacerbate the problems they were facing -- troops would outrun supply and communication and suffer even more casualties.

>Bonus question: Do you think American army had significant role in stopping the German army during this time?
No. Not "in stopping" the Germans, there were rather few American boots on the ground so to speak. What it did, however, was speed up German decisionmaking -- one of the reasons for the offensive (or timing thereof) was knowing American troops would soon show up en masse. Furthermore, American entry meant great manpower reserves which in turn meant that the allied powers could relatively swiftly mount offensives of their own, speeding up the resolution of the war, as opposed to a more careful build up if they had to rely and maintain solely their own manpower reserve.

Because marxists think a person is defined by their actions

Back in durkastan when we were bored and talking shit with the goatfuckers they drew a clear distinction between "being gay" and "having sex with men/boys"

One is an unnatural phenomena and abomination before God, the other is a purely physical act of lust

Apparently you're not gay if you never fall in love with another dude and make sure to marry/have kids

>>1684863
Nagito worst boy.

Because packing fudge just used to be something guys did when there weren't any women around. Nowadays thanks to Christianity and identity politics packing fudge means you're gay and you have to have your entire identity revolve around it.

As long as stated refuse to act in the common interest, power will flow upwards.

This is implying that there is something inherently bad with imperialism which is not true. In fact, if you are powerful enough to create an empire while maintaining most, if not more, liberties that have existed since the country was founded than you have succeeded. In fact, many international relations experts would point at the United States and say they are the pinnacle of a peaceful era globally.

Just look at the disappointment in his eyes

it knew what it was going to happen

Absolutely.

Materialists partying hard, and people misreading a description of a natural process of change for another faith to believe in, one of progress and biological "improvement."

It's a milestone in the philosophy of biology.

Social dawinisim you dole sucker. You need this much help for your homework?

Maybe positivism was the current ideology at that time. Positivism stating there is a linear course in which history advances, like some sort of "logical evolution to..", had significant effects on many disciplines and theories since XVIII century. If there is an ideology i would relate darwinism with, is that.

racism is like voodoo

it;s invisible, and you can't hear it, and it makes black people violent because it's a curse born of invisible ill-will that you can never see

clearly the solution is to treat racists like witches and stone them to death

It stopped being a thing between major powers because of nukes ya dingus.

The entire history of humans was shaped and dominated by war.

It might be reduced to small-scale conflicts once (if) there is one united earth state and there are no more reasons for global fights over resources. But if you think people can just make the decision to live peacefully together then you're mistaken.

>>1684401
>one united earth state
I don't think that's a solution

how can one central government know what's best for everyone?

If you haven't noticed, Indochina was the first of many post-ww2 liberation wars. In the end, the occupier had to ask themselves; Is it worth it?

Turns out modern warfare is no longer the same as the old days and that's why the French lost.

>>1684231
the Viet Minh was causing a lot of problems by attacking when supply chains were weak, and eventually cut them off. At that point monsoon season for SE Asia was approaching (RIP supply drops), and they couldn't risk the manpower / assets by continuing to stay deployed there.
