re: What would’ve happened if Britain had surrendered in WWII?

If that cuck Neville Chamberlain had signed an armistice with Hitler, would the world be a different place today?
Two things:
1) You do realize that an armistice is not a surrender, correct? Wars don't have to end in complete victory or abject capitulation, though that trend is part of why 20th century wars have been so uniquely savage.
2) Neville Chamberlain tied Britain to war with Germany over an extremely contentious and complex German/Polish land dispute and ethnic rivalry that went back nearly 1000 years. He did this in March of 1939 and it was an extremely aggressive and risky foreign policy move. He also honored it in September of that same year and thus voluntarily entered Britain into a major European war over a German/Polish matter that affected the British Empire very little outside of the relative power balance in Europe. His actions were far from cuckish but people tend to repeat the trope they hear on the History Channel rather than thinking for themselves.
