Plucky Brits made Dunkirk evacuation possible

Is this man really francophobe or is this just a meme to get him more views? Asking an honest question there, I basically never watch his videos.

Holy shit, judging by comments, this piece of shit Lindybeige managed to make a video depicting the French as cowards while talking about Dunkirk ( a battle in which British were the cowards while frogs protected them)
This shit is surreal hahaha

>>3258682
Don't watch any of his videos about WWII or any subject related to the UK if you don't want to get triggered
They all basically boil down to why the UK is the best country that has ever existed and why France sucks

>>3258735
I'm German and I don't really care much about France, but seeing a Brit shit on them for Dunkirk while the French basically saved their ass is just over the line

>>3258735
>>3258747
>its another "I haven't watched the video but regardless I'll accuse lindy of x"
Nowhere in the video does he say that the French were cowards. He says that a large number of French soldiers were conscripts and were demoralised by the memories of the Great War and fifth columnists. But the French professional soldiers were as good as the BEF.

Basically his opinion is that the French Army in WWII wasn't a bunch of cravens surrendering at the first sight of Germans, but neither a force to be reckoned with that reclaimed France alone as de Gaulle would have you believe.

France won the Napoleonic wars
the french saved the anglos at dunkrik
The anglos threatened to blockade us if we invaded germany
The Americans forced us to decolonize from Algeria
France was never racist, unlike anglos

the running over part is true
it was a regular thing to trample artillery/AT gun positions with your tank if you had the chance, especially on the eastern front, even if the AT caliber was sufficient to penetrate

The thing he mentions about the 100.000 French soldiers going back to mainland occupied France, while given the opportunity to stay in Britain as an army in exile, but only a few thousand staying is absolutely fucking repulsing

>>3259578

Those are the free French forces, not the same army that was defeated by Germany in 1940.

>>3259628
>Dunkirk is celebrated
It's celebrated because it allowed Britain to continue the fight, Churchill even says in his speech that "Wars are not won by evacuations"

Considering there were lives lost for making it possible for them to even have a chance to get to safety. That's like the complete opposite of survivors guilt. I'll bet you the men who died on the beach of Dunkirk and the men defending the perimeter would've loved to not be dead and get the opportunity to get rescued. Waste of space got a whole new definition when I heard it in the video

if your wife and family are alone under occupation from a regime that is known to be ruthless? The nazi's knowing that her husband and their father is fighting for the enemy? I would go home too.

You guys are sick wastes of life for condenscending these men from behind your pc screens.

>>3259733
Reminder that

1. Most evacuated French troops were sent back to France before France surrendered

2. Even for the few that decided to go back there after defeat, you have to remember that no one knew the Reich would fall 4 years later in 1940
For all they knew, it dominated all Europe and had no powerful enemies yet, so joining the Free French meant exiling themselves from their homes and family maybe forever
It's those who did that who were incredibly brave rather than those who didnt who were cowards


And if anything, it's Lindy talking about this anecdote to shit on frogs while totally leaving out the fact the French rearguard basically made the evacuation possible, that is absolutely fucking repulsing

>>3260721

Great video indeed

>>3261197
>>3261199
You are absolutely retarded. He's nearly neutral in this video.
Dutch people are basically Germans, obviously they are closely tied to Germany.
I don't even know what to say, you saw the video, you heard what he said. Quote him directly and you'll see that all you say is bullshit.

Or are you honestly unable to understand that "important part" does not mean "they alone"? There are multiple reasons as to why Dunkirk was possible and he named many. The attack with the tanks was something most people will not know about and it was interesting, he also said that it didn't really do anything because the force was small and thinned while advancing, but it forced some troops back and posed a thread to the German troops who were also stretched thin.

>>3261249
>the dutch are german
man i hate burgers

>>3261257
>the dutch are basically Germans = the dutch are Germans
I am German, Dutch people are very close to us, they could very well be a federal state in Germany. The difference isn't much bigger than that of Austria/Bavaria and Prussia.

Are you aware that Germans don't refer to themselves as Germans but Deutsche? Germany=Deutschland.
Deutsch Dutch, it can hardly get any more similar.

Same with the French rearguard, which was infinitly more important than the British gay tanks

>>3261320
Yes, Dutch are not Germans, but similar.
The difference between someone from Munich and Berlin is as big as the difference between someone from Germany and someone from the Netherlands.

>>3261322
Everyone knows about the French defending, it's key to Dunkirk. The tank attack is not and he made that clear. There are multiple reasons as to why Dunkirk happened and why it was possible, the French defending alone was certainly not it.

>>3261500
>Everyone knows about the French defending, it's key to Dunkirk

Normies don't
And that Nolan movie silencing it to make people think "heroic" British pilots were the "key" won't help

If that's true I apologize and thank you for clearing that up. Blame Lindy for not clearing it up and take my ignorant post as an example of what the average viewer takes away from it. Lindy truely is cancerous

>>3261640
Yea, German states were always homogeneous and never fought each other or anything.

>>3261649
Nice argument. But you're right. The Dutch and the Germans are fundamentally different, you're right. Language is nearly the same, history is closely connected and even the fucking name is nearly the same but hey, completely different.

The BEF is one of the most shameful army corps of WW2. In the rare cases where they actually fought they were assblasted or captured. Otherwise they simply retreated en masse.
The simple fact that this dude dare compare them to the French troops is a mere joke.

>>3261733
The absolute state of Germans, do you believe your own words? There was no doubt in anyone's mind the aggressor would be the eternal kraut in the east in may 1940.
>they have an affinity with germans
Yeah they completely forgot about a war before when the krautnigger raped Belgium. You are helplessly anachronistic, viewing everything from the situation as it is present-day

Seems like you're halfassed doing the same with the Dutch for one another reason. Jesus Christ you're uninformed. The audacity to even pretend you know anything about the subject at hand

>>3261788
>Did you want the whole film to focus on the French?

Half of it should have
Movie's literally called Dunkirk, not "The British at Dunkirk"
If you can put three different britbongs PoV, you sure could have put a French one

>>3261929

It's only about the absolute tail end of the operation, also. The British troops evacuated from "The Mole" were the last troops to leave. The movie just chose to focus a specific time and location for a very large operation, which is a rational decision to make. The movie would have to be 100 hours long to cover every possible POV.

>>3261929

The whole idea of keeping the Germans out of sight would have been spoiled then, besides the film was about the evacuation

>>3261929
The fact the French Army had large numbers from North Africa and moderate numbers from West Africa is well known and should have been recognised.

>>3261971
Unrelated to Dunkirk as the French started to have large numbers of colonials only with the creation of the Free French (and thus not during the Battle of France)

Okay, so how important was the evacuation in a historical sense? Let's say that somehow the Germans were able to keep pushing forward and kill and/or capture all the soldiers on the beach. How does this change the outcome of WW2?

>pic supremely unrelated

>>3262705
>>climate change isn't real
Dude cut him some slack

>>3262758
>How does this change the outcome of WW2

It doesnt
The British would still repel German invasion thank to air force/navy, and Americans would thus still be able to use Britain as an advanced base for their liberation of Europe 4 years later

All it would change is that the useless shit Brits pulled in Africa wouldnt happen, but that was irrelevant to the outcome

>>3262810

Let's say the Germans manage to capture most of the people alive, and then uses them as a bargaining chip to secure a peace with Britain.

>>3262816
>he thinks the British elites would give up their pride for 150,000 British soldiers lives

>>3259701
Well, were they? Do you have an argument?

>>3262758
It doesn't really change anything. The British army was mostly irrelevant during this war anyway. At best the Germans would have spend more ressources to feed these POWs.

>>3262828
>>3262828

He doesn't actually say that in the video. He just says that most of the massacres were committed by the SS, but that ordinary Wehrmacht solders also had a habit of shooting black soldiers who tried to surrender. So the SS committed the organized mass murders while you'd still see sporadic killings of POW's among the Wehrmacht based on racial enmity.

Lindybeige and his community of larpers are wholly responsible for the BBC and others putting West African Negroes into historical dramas. The larping community often make up the numbers when extras are used for illustrating historical events. The larping community include everyone, as they're all atheist liberals who're afraid of being socially ostracized. So when documentaries need extras, they ask larpers to play these parts.

I've been watching some documentaries recently, now only taking notice of the extras, I've noticed that South Asians and Negroes are often used to play Medieval Norman/Plantagenet/French mailed units. This is thanks to the larping atheist community in the multicultural shithole that is modern Britain.

Linmdybeige himself is dedicated to rewriting history, how more revolutionary can you be, than replacing the past with Negroes and South Asians.
