It's widely thought that the devastating ability of the world's military power is scary now, and that it could lead to horrific situations if shite hits the fan.

Could it not be argued that the lack of today's types of weapons back in the day could lead millions of men into a false sense of security and ultimately to their death?

That's cute.

It's honestly one of the more tame political boards out there that I visit.

If you're clutching your pearls over TD's political board, you would have a heart attack reading /pol/.

Not even close. You really need to read up on the First Amendment before you post this stupidity.

Yelling fire in a crowded theater is the standard. Nothing on an Internet message board comes close.

Sober up, you less of a man.

I assure you that most good posters on the PT will hear you out and talk about issues with you.

If the PT is too much for you, then you should consider hopping off the interwebs.

Do you not find it odd that communism is coming back in style as well..?

Just imagine if Hitler would have developed Nuclear weapons first. He was willing to let this many of his people die when he had to know that he was going to lose.
had he not forced Jewish and other "non-pure" scientist to leave, he probably would have. Thank god his views on a pure race trump is knowledge on how to win a war.

I find it amusing that the leftists smear their opponents with "Nazi!!!". Hitler was a National Socialist. Hitler and Stalin had much more in common than differences. The Eastern Front was the largest turf war between mobsters in history.

If Germany won in Stalingrad, their army would have made it to the Caucasus region and got their hands on the oil they needed to run their war machine.


This ^^^

Absolutely the turning point and downfall of the war for the Germans. Had they won Stalingrad they would’ve quickly taken Moscow, rested and resupplied for the winter, and quickly smash whatever remained of the Ruskies out in the East.

The Russians declared that all captured German soldiers were war criminals. Most all were literally worked to death. I think the last of the surviving POWs were returned to Germany around 1954.

The only thing worse today is the fact we have nuclear weapons. Other than that, WW2 was worse because chemical weapons today have largely been banned and so has napalm.

WW2 was a unique clash in that it happened at a time where wars were fought conventionally with the use of new modern technology and equipment. If a war ever breaks out again between super powers it will be worse though. The likelihood of that isn't high because of mutual assured destruction. Thus why we have proxy wars using people in shithole countries that we don't care about

And this is why Russia was somehow worse than the Nazis. Stalin made Hitler look like a well balanced Sunday school teacher.
