I want to go get a doctorate in history just to see what it's like. I'm working on my thesis, call up the professor at 2am. Uhh, I found something out here. We meet in an empty parking lot. He tells me to burn it and forget about it. Never speak of this again. We cannot lose our funding

How does Germany reaching terms with the UK lead to a Russian victory? That's what I don't understand in your hypothetical.
If Germany reaches terms with Britain after they lost Dunkirk, and Germany still loses to Russia, how do you think that would have ended in Europe without the British and Americans present in the west to stop them from moving to France and Spain?

All will be forgiven if you donate six million dollars towards departments involved in sociological studies.

In Europe they put actual Oxford PhD historians in fricking prison

It is the latter part that I do not understand.
Again, counterfactuals are difficult, stupid, and senseless in terms of wars...but why is a German defeat at the hands of the Soviets a given in this scenario?

I think he's basically going on the assumption that the Germans would've killed the 300k soldiers at Dunkirk or at least imprisoned until death. Hindsight has shown us the true cruelty of the Nazi camps and POW treatment - something like 90% died.
That was a massive portion of the Brits' standing army at that time and would've dealt a blow they couldn't recover from if continually pushed by the Germans.
That way British morale is toast as well, they agree to terms with the Nazis, and the USSR eventually steamrolls the both of them (primarily the Germans with UK just laying down at that point).
That leaves Germany, the UK, Poland, any territory that the Germans have occupied like France, etc susceptible to be taken by USSR in the power vacuum left by the Germans falling - i.e. easy pickings for the Soviet steamroller.

It’s a 50/50 in my book... but why the frick are you arguing about this? Are you saying it would be comparably good to modern society if the Nazis won? Give me a fricking break. Either way, tens of millions are dead by the leadership’s own choice. They’re both evil. The Brits and Americans don’t agree with that, their innovations have saved like 2 billion lives, and the other two consciously kill into the 10 digits.

Do you know where Dunkirk is? It’s in fricking France. Hardly any troops captured by Nazis on the Western front died by Nazi hands. Tens of millions did on the Eastern Front. On the Western Front, they wined and dined the officers in hopes they’d let some secrets slip. If the Nazis got a Russian officer, frick wining and dining him, torture him to death for the next 48 hours for information until his heart gives out and dies.

Because I don't think your claim is credible. It doesn't really matter, but I have doubts.

No. I do not know this.

Maybe? Communism is the worst cancer of the 20th century. Worse than fascism, by the numbers.
ETA: just think, without the commies perhaps Rhodesia doesn’t fall. Perhaps S. Africa doesn’t fall to scum like Mandela

quote:Here is his explanation for why there are zero records any where, at all from the notoriously meticulous Germans on the Final Solution
Raul Hilberg (June 2, 1926 – August 4, 2007) was an Austrian-born Jewish-American political scientist and historian. He was widely considered to be the world's preeminent[1][2][3]scholar of the Holocaust, and his three-volume, 1,273-page magnum opus, The Destruction of the European Jews, is regarded as a seminal study of the Nazi Final Solution
quote:
But what began in 1941 was a process of destruction not planned in advance, not organized centrally by any agency. There was no blueprint and there was no budget for destructive measures. They [these measures] were taken step by step, one step at a time. Thus came about not so much a plan being carried out, but an incredible meeting of minds, a consensus-mind reading by a far-flung bureaucracy

This was only made for weak minded sheep that need to he told how to think. Otherwise known as progressives.
