    Well, not to defend the nazis or anything, but they did manage to make considerable amounts of damage and it took multiple great powers working together to beat them back.

      That’s how Fascists work though. They pick fights with bigger and bigger opponents – because they’re invulnerable, you see – until they lose. Their economy was absolutely insane, and required flat out pillaging their neighbours. Eventually your neighbours are too big to pillage.

      I won’t say Finland or Thailand were great powers but Japan had a decent showing so it’s not like they were alone

      Though it really only took USSR to beat Germany

    Same with the confederacy:

    • lasted just 4 years
    • lost a war against the USA

    Yet their flags are waived around with pride 250+ years later. How perfectly normal

    wasn’t even the last one standing on the losing side either. Japanese people are better than the master race?

      U mean a druggy?

      Everyone used to consume inorbitant amounts of hard drugs! Thats the charm of the time!

      Or like are you to implying the narrative of nazi generals? That the war would have been won tups if Hitler didn’t meddle? ‘Cause thats also not true! The war rememtos are complete lies meant to convince nato to hire them as advisers, which they would have anyways. If things were to shit the fan with the ussr then they wanted the german militia…
