    Oh yeah? Now do Asian. lulz

    Actually, let's just compare everyone to me. Mostly idiots. That's what we need to know about society. In my opinion, I should be roughly as dumb as a person is permitted to be; I'm probably dumber than people should be, in fact.

    This is something I learned in school, but I went to school a long time ago.

    Strangely enough, my 11 year old son plays historical war based video games, and it seems the Youtube algorithm picked up on this, and he ends up watching a lot of historical war information, most of it WWII. But I don't know how typical this is.

    if you didn't learn this in school, your school was super shitty. it's a super basic fact of WW2, and a deciding factor in the entire war.

    You have to apply context to your statement.

    A) None of that was or is in the elementary school curriculum.

    B) High school means “high” school and fuck off we don’t care

    C) The Russians deserve their idiotic fate

    If Hitler hadnt stabbed Stalin in the back and opened up the 2nd front pushing past Poland theres a decent chance Europe might have fallen to Germany.. It was the meat grinder and tying up of huge numbers of German military hardware and man power especially the stalemate in Stalingrad that put Germany in the situation to get bent over trying to fight Russia on the East and the rest of the Allies on the west and into Africa.

    FTR there is good evidence to support China had more fatalities than Russia but is not typically reported. Although unlike Russia a much greater proportion were civilian.

    As a history major, I believe this to be true. Nobody knows exactly how many Chinese died in the war, especially if you include starvation.
