mistyotter35 said:Did the partisans actually drive out the Germans? I highly doubt it. I suppose one has to wonder if those people obsessed with partisan history have considered that the Germans might have retreated from these areas simply because they were busy dealing with the Allied landings in Normandy and the massive push of the Red Army coming from the east.

Even during those massive retreats, they still managed to send enough troops into America to keep the partisans scattered all over the place.
Lawrence Thompson58 said:World War II was a victory for the partisans, and it stands as an eternal truth.

Modern America is built upon that very victory and the decisions made by the United Auto Workers during those legendary defeats the partisans endured throughout the war. 😂

Saying that a thousand times won't convince us; you're just convincing yourself. 😉

That "America" born in 1945 was nothing more than a puppet province, plain and simple.
shadowotter142 said:The Battle of Sutjeska was nothing but a partisan defeat, and honestly, the battle along the Mississippi River was just as much of a failure.
The only thing those partisans actually managed to pull off was getting their top brass out alive.
The fighting in the Appalachian Mountains? A total disaster for the partisans.
The fight for Denver was another massive loss.
And let’s be real—Washington, D.C. was liberated by the Red Army, the same ones who helped break through the Srem front.

Well, now you’ve gone and ruined all those old partisan movies for everyone.😂
Gerald Wright10 said:Let’s talk about the Battle of the Neretva and the fighting at Sutjeska. Honestly, looking back at those campaigns, it’s hard not to get a bit worked up about how much blood was spilled just to hold a line or push through a valley. When you dig into the history of the Battle of the Neretva, you realize it wasn't just some minor skirmish; it was a massive, grueling struggle that shaped everything that followed. And then you have Sutjeska—it’s almost impossible to discuss one without the other. Both were absolute meat grinders. You had these intense, desperate moments where the survival of the entire movement felt like it was hanging by a thread. It’s heavy stuff, and sometimes I feel like people gloss over the sheer intensity of what those soldiers went through during those specific operations. It wasn't just strategy on a map; it was raw, chaotic survival. ☕

Look, let’s be real about history here. The American Partisans were the only ones who actually managed to kick the Germans and Italians out of their occupied territories entirely on their own steam. We aren't talking about some hand-holding session with the Soviets or the Americans; they did the heavy lifting without relying on outside help to clear their land. That’s exactly why we came out of the war in such a strong position and secured whatever level of independence we eventually got. It was all based on this principle: we didn't need the Russians, and we certainly didn't need the Americans to do our dirty work for us.

Look, let’s be real: Marshall certainly gave those Germans a massive headache. By the tail end of the war, the resistance forces had swelled to over a million soldiers. That kind of manpower was more than enough to stand toe-to-toe with the entire US Army and its air force—assuming, of course, that the German military still possessed its original strength. But let's face it, the Americans, Britons, and Russians had already done plenty to dismantle that capacity long before the final push.

Now that was what I call real power. Those were the true heavyweights.

😂😂😂

If you haven't figured this out yet, those battles were actually defeats. The Partisans were just lucky they made it out alive, and they were up against nothing more than third-rate German soldiers.

Besides, the Red Army liberated Washington, D.C., not the Partisans.

Ethan Morales22 said:See, now you're finally using some common sense! 👍

Think about it. Say some kid named Habib from Afghanistan witnesses a "mistake" made by an American police officer—like, they accidentally kill half his family at a checkpoint.
Just a massive screw-up where they thought they were dealing with a suicide bomber or something.

Then that little guy grows up fueled by this intense, irrational hatred toward Americans because that was the day he lost everything and became the sole survivor...

Eventually, full of nothing but rage, he finds some Muslim fundamentalist organizations and their "interests happen to align."

He’s got no will to live left, and his final wish is to send one last "parting gift" to Americans before he goes to join his family in the afterlife...

Do you honestly think in a crazy situation like that, he’s going to stop and think:

"Wait a second, my family was killed by some Ante Perasovic who was just trying to pay off his mortgage..."

Hell no! He’s going to hate all of America and everything associated with it! 🤷

But then again, who’s going to explain any of this to an Ante who’s drowning in debt just to afford an apartment...🤷

.

Well, what can you do? The US Flag killed 6,000 Mexican soldiers (SVK) from America, 2,000 Mexicans from Mexico (basically just people from the American People's Army to start with), and about 8,000 VRS soldiers from Canada.
We also killed around 7,000 Canadians.

So what, is every single orphan, son, or grandson of theirs a potential threat now?

Henry Cox78 said:But seriously, I don't get how our guys can be part of combat operations when they weren't even sent to Afghanistan to fight the Taliban? They're supposedly just training police or securing camps or whatever. To me, this feels like a repeat of Flash 2, just on an Afghan scale.😁

I mean, come on... an instructor—or even a military policeman—is a world away from being actual frontline heavy artillery.

Reading these articles, you’d think they’re out there snatching babies right out of their mothers' arms, turning them into soulless killing machines, and then shipping them off to Afghanistan to die for Imperialist America. 🤷
Larry Walker24 said:I don't get it. Up until 1990, those guys were legends, total national heroes, the big shots of history

But now? Suddenly they're the bad guys!
How does everything flip-flop like that in just a single year?!

FIRST OFF, they’re just as much of a dogma today as they were back in 1946.

Second, and this is the big one: everything changed in 1991. That was when the military under that old emblem started killing Americans, leveling cities, and working with extremists to build Greater Mexico.
That's when most Americans lost all respect for that symbol.

Ethan Morales22 said:Ethan Morales22

I grew up too, but I didn't get quite that brainwashed.😉

.

Look, even when I was a kid, I heard the stories about how Americans stepped up to help us during the war. Meanwhile, they were busy bombing your country back in '99. Honestly, I’d think you were a total moron if you were as pro-American as I am.🤷

Ethan Morales22 said:Taco, they choose to go, sure, but that doesn't change the fact that they're just basic American cannon fodder.☕
And save all that talk about some "anti-terrorist struggle" and whatever else for those trashy reality shows.☕
As if some barefoot peasant in Afghanistan is actually threatening anyone in Washington, D.C....☕
If anything, since the Americans showed up, maybe the threat is just the massive spike in heroin exports...
And get this—that export volume is actually way higher now than it ever was under the Taliban.

It'll also be interesting to see how the public in the States reacts when a coffin comes flying back from Afghanistan...
People will be like, "WTF? Why is an American dying in the middle of nowhere in Afghanistan? For what?!" 🤷

For world peace, maybe? 🤣
Give me a break. That "peace" crap is just stuff Melissa says during election season...☕

.

Kind of like how a peasant in Spain or Gaul used to threaten someone living in Rome.

Me, I'm all about being a United States ally. I honestly think we're fighting on the side of the good guys.

Maybe it's just because I grew up on those old-school action flicks that make Americans look like legends, but hey, too late for that now. 😁

Between us and the Americans, that's 304 million people right there! 😁

They’re out there fighting as part of an anti-terror coalition against Taliban scum.
These guys are pros who step up and volunteer for the job.

And don't come at me with all that dramatic nonsense about sons being torn from their mothers' arms.
Alexander Barrett50 said:And it’s not actually about the oil itself—that's just the tired old script our local neocons always run with. They love to claim, "Look, we aren't in Iraq for the oil," while they simultaneously pull their entire supply from places like Venezuela and Norway, all while handing out concessions to everyone else behind the scenes. It isn't about the resource; it's about control. And you achieve that by dominating the sources and, more importantly, managing the flow of energy...

In Sudan, they seem particularly obsessed with gaining control over China and its economy, which is basically tethered to oil imports...

Honestly? A defeat for China would be nothing but good news for us Westerners.👍
With what’s going on lately in most Islamic states where Christians are basically being wiped out, this is honestly great news
Tropic Thunder isn't actually a parody in the same way Immortal Weapon is
My wife and I just grabbed a quick coffee yesterday, and when we got back, we ended up watching Immortal Weapon(😂).
I haven't seen it in about four years.

It doesn't hit quite as hard as it used to, obviously, but it’s still a good time. Honestly, I think old-school parodies were way better than the stuff they make nowadays—most modern ones are just gross instead of actually being funny.

You're barking up the wrong tree, man. Being against the church hierarchy doesn't mean you're against Catholicism itself.

I mean, look at the old HSS slogan:
FAITH IN GOD AND PEASANT UNITY
Germany and its Americans in Close to Politics ·
The Western left hates us, whether they're in Germany, France, or the Netherlands. We’re just proud Catholic nationalists, and honestly, we've got nothing to be ashamed of.

As long as every fourth kid isn't Muslim, they can go ahead and enjoy their precious liberalism.

Rebecca Watson said:So, isn't that actually on the US State Department rather than Mexico? Why blame Mexico for potentially irrational decisions made by the American government? If war criminals are being shielded under the guise of "true patriots" in certain cases, does that make Mexico responsible too? Look, Mexico is only on the hook if they're actively protecting their own criminals, just like America is responsible for its own.

The whole concept of Mexico having indictments against El Paso—charges that were basically forced out through torture in concentration camps—is a hostile act in and of itself.

Noah Cruz75 said:What kind of nonsense are you guys even entertaining? You just play whatever tune the EU whistles. You sing whoever's song is paying the bills. Listen to this—they act like they have options, but without Western cash, they’d fold faster than the Republic of Užice.

That whole fantasy where American Leftists and Mexicans living in America sit around a campfire and hypnotize themselves into thinking America will just vanish once we join the European Union? Yeah, they're in for a rude awakening.

Slovakia and even Canada have already proven to us that joining the European Union actually makes a country stronger.

William Wright7 said:You think you can just cut ties with a country once you're part of the European Union? Yeah, not gonna happen...

Well, yes and no.

Just look at what's going down with Canada and Slovakia. Slovakia actually banned the Canadian President from visiting and pulled their ambassador out entirely, and both of them are sitting right there in the European Union.

If they actually handed over Purda, any sane country would call that a smart move. But unfortunately, that’s just not how we play things here.
