Every fucking time.

Every fucking time there's a WWII thread of any sort, everyone has to come calling Americans fake heroes, the Soviets heroes, etc etc.

It was a team effort and without one ally it would have failed. They all did their part.

But I would absolutely love a 2017-tier big budget movie about Stalingrad with no love story bullshit going on. Maybe Nolan can do it in the style he did Dunkirk

>americucks believing the propaganda
>>
From an American perspective (the people who make good big-budget movies) making a movie about the Eastern Front is a lot more complicated than making one about the exploits of Americans, Brits, and the rest of the allies in the West, or even the war in the Pacific. The lack of a clear morally-superior side is a big complicating factor, but there's also all the minutiae of deciding whether to use the actual languages (which complicated casting and requires the audience to read subtitles,) or use weird accented English, or whatever, as well as filming in much poorer and more dysfunctional countries than the western ones, etc. So the whole process is much more difficult and audiences might not even be into it when it's done. I get why they rarely do it.

>>86612107
I can't stand the memes that are propagated by people who don't really understand WW2.
>Russian were heroes
No, they were as bad as the Nazis, though still (like Nazis) humans and not inherently evil
>Russians were incompetent and beat the Nazis by throwing men at them/the Russian winter beat the Nazis, not the Russians
No, the Nazis were overconfident after their easy win in France, didn't do nearly enough intelligence gathering, went in with good soldiers but shit strategy and not enough equipment/supplies, got their shit pushed in
>America did nothing
Stalin himself admitted the Soviets would not have won on the Eastern Front without American assistance. The US was also the backbone of the western allies after 1941. At the same time it kicked the shit out of Imperial Japan in an unprecedented amphibious campaign thousands of miles from American soil. It was no accident that the Americans were in charge of D-Day, they'd been doing the same thing in the Pacific for 2 years, crossing thousands of miles of open ocean to invade shithole islands guarded by fanatical and heavily fortified Japanese. The Channel's what, 100 miles?
>America did everything
Also stupid

And so on.
>>
>>86613240
The Western Allies could have captured it earlier but it was agreed at Yalta that the Red Army would capture it as a reward for the massive amount of casualties they absorbed.
>>
>>86610664
this. As an Australian this gets annoying as fuck, there's a difference.
>>
>>86611320
as opposed to the 300k civilians you americans managed to kill in one morning? because they dented some of your ships at pearl harbor?
Americans are the bad guys
>>
>>86614522
>kill a couple hundred thousand (including those that died instantly and in the years afterward, so your number's rather high for one morning)
>avert the death of millions in an invasion of the Japanese home islands
You're probably just memeing but come on dude. The nukes were absolutely the right call. Firebombing of Tokyo was also just as bad as either of the nukes in terms of casualties.

>>86614868
I'd love to hear how you would have beaten the Japanese in WW2 anon. You seem enlightened. I'm sure it would have been with minimal civilian casualties, even though they had been brainwashed to such a degree that the vast majority would rather kill themselves and their children than surrender to Americans. Please tell me.

>>86614895
They wouldn't surrender after one. They literally thought they were a superior people who could never be defeated and built their whole society around that. They had fallen into a collective insanity the same way the Nazis and the various communist states had.

Right, we tried to annihilate the Japanese people. We definitely didn't spend a ton of our own money rebuilding the country after the war, helping turn it into an industrial, technological and cultural powerhouse, and one of our greatest allies. That is certainly not exactly what happened.
>>
there nothing fucking heroic about war. Killing a grown man and women is a disgusting act. If anything once you serve overseas you get humbled like a new rape victim and stop drinking the koolaid. America, soviets they all evil empires.
>>
>people don't realize the soviets would have been useless without american lend-lease

fucking retards. America won the war.
>>
>>86615135
Even if we could starve them, that probably kills even more people than an invasion. But they're big ass islands dude. Plenty of food and resources, plus they were still fucking around in mainland Asia, best to just do whatever was necessary to get a surrender ASAP

>>86614987

Modern society encountered tribalism, and didn't know what to do with it. It's an utterly absurd idea.

I dare you to say in any point of fact, that their own behavior towards each other was any less brutal. If anything, they were given a reprieve. You're considering perhaps, a world that never existed.

Humans are what they are.

The lack of accepting that, is absolutely the sum of our problems. Nobody needs to say things that have already been said, over-and-over.

Action, is better than your dumbass, "hey look at this" newspeak that amounts to fuck all and surely, at least to me; makes you look like a complete idiot.

Because they had imperial ambitions, like Germany, and the mind virus had spread beyond the point of nonviolent intervention. Sane countries trade for what they desire and the Japanese could have found plenty to trade with

Well of course, why not? I think you're taking what you have for granted, and I think you're attempting to attack that point-of-view. I think you're wrong.

Things are good, so damn good if you just try. I just don't have sympathy when people act like the world is against them when they have every option open to them.

Hmm. There may be a slight flaw in your logic there bud.

I just have subjects I'm interested in and when I post about them a lot comes out. Sometimes it leads to an interesting conversation and sometimes it doesn't. It doesn't matter to me. Haven't browsed plebbit in years, the circlejerking and groupthink makes my skin crawl
