Don’t be mad that I’m lashing out a bit. At least you’re saying clearly that I’m just falling for propaganda, not being able to think critically in your opinion. But I could say the exact same thing about you. Imo it’s ignorance to lecture someone about the history of their own country as if that person had never informed themselves or reflected on that history. I didn’t want to diminish the role of the Red Army in defeating the nazis, of course they had insane losses and contributed significantly to the victory over nazism. However I don’t think that the Americans taking part in it did only play a minor part. Both sides working together was necessary to achieve this. And I don’t think it makes any sense to argue about who contributed the most. Also completely besides the point because my argument was about pacifism. And neither the Russians nor the Americans defeated the nazis without weapons.
