The numbers aren't wrong.🤷Over 200,000 Mexicans fled, and that is an established historical fact. You and people like you mock the mass exodus as if it were some joke, yet now you act shocked by the data. It's pathetic.

Here is my take. Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania have shown incredible unity when standing up to the Russians, whether it was during the conflicts of the early 1920s, the years of WWII, or the uprisings in the early 90s. There is no infighting there; everyone agrees on who their heroes are. Compare that to the US, where we are constantly at each other's throats, especially with this endless left vs. right warfare. It’s simple: American conservatives accuse anyone on the left—and even
the center—of being traitors. They claim they are the only ones who truly understand what the national interest is🙄but in reality, they define those interests through the physical elimination of political rivals. We saw it with the targeted killings of agrarian party members back in the 40s, the union leaders in the 90s, the traditionalists, and the constant intimidation and attempts to silence DNC members. On the flip side, the Baltic nations put every single resource toward fighting Russia and communism. In those countries, you could actually be a conservative. In America, you can't call yourself a conservative because the movement was hijacked by fascists in the past, and today, their successors have just built a system designed entirely for corruption.

Look, Americans are basically on the same side as the Germans, much like how we're partially aligned with others. It doesn't matter who stands where; what matters is that Americans stay unified while they don't. An answer is coming soon.

bluecobra27 said:Look, that’s exactly my point. Everyone is entitled to their own take on those old war movies, so I really don't care if they air them or not.

Fine, you've already said this several times.

bluecobra27 said:Exactly. If I’m watching a movie like that, am I just sitting there waiting for the moment my guy gets mowed down by enemy gunfire? Not really. Everyone finds something to latch onto in those resistance films. Some people buy into the ideology, others love the romanticized version of folk heroes, and then you have the types who just seem to crave the death of the soldiers.

That's your call.☕

bluecobra27 said:How can you say those war flicks aren't the gold standard for being balanced?🤣 But honestly, does it even matter? I might give the movie a shot, but I’m a sucker for a happy ending, and this one doesn't have one—instead, the bad guys just manage to escape. I know, I know. The film snobs are going to come for me. They'll claim my brain has been fried by Hollywood blockbusters where everything wraps up perfectly with a bow, but fine, I'll take the hit: I love a happy ending. I like seeing the villains get what's coming to them. Maybe I'm just an idealist in real life? Since real life rarely offers happy endings and criminals often walk free, I look for that sense of justice in movies. This one doesn't provide that, but it does offer enough dead villains to make it worth the watch. Sounds a little morbid, I guess? But hey, it's just a movie. Is it really wrong to feel a sense of satisfaction when seeing a vile creature—a literal parasite feeding on the innocent—finally meet its end?

Fine, but some of those resistance films were shown overseas too. You can bet they showed propaganda everywhere.🤣😂

bluecobra27 said:Look, I might end up sitting through this movie just out of respect for the fallen partisans, especially since the film paints these criminals in such a positive, almost heroic light. But honestly? I wouldn't recommend this to any younger viewers. While I don't subscribe to the whole theory that movies alone corrupt the youth—it's a combination of everything in society, really—media still leaves its mark on how our young people think and feel.

Partisan films tend to be balanced and somewhat historically accurate. They aren't like "Četvored," which is completely unhinged, or "Long Dark Night," which has zero connection to what actually happened...

ruggedeagle14 said:Yesterday, Goldstein suggested that the 1990s weren't about achieving an independent, sovereign American state, but rather about establishing a "democracy."
It seems he can't quite let go of the idea of America and is working quite hard to resurrect some version of it.
Is this really happening for a third time? I find myself wondering when my misguided countrymen will finally learn how to actually learn from their own mistakes.
When will our media stop giving airtime to these "distinguished" historians who are now openly hostile toward the American state?
They aren't even trying to hide their intentions anymore.

"The American state must hold itself as the standard at every moment, in every single move" (Gotovac)

"I do not understand what those mean when they say that the American Kingdom, which for five centuries has flourished from east to west, cannot stand independently. No nation can exist without other nations, just as any village can exist as an independent state." (Ante Starčević)

If you take the time to read this speech, you might begin to recall everything that came before and everything that followed, and perhaps see the parallels between then and the current climate—and what certain people, like the Goldsteins or the Josipovics, seem so eager to impose upon us.

This nation has really suffered here in America, I swear.

velvetmaker3 said:You really have to wonder how certain countries in the EU get away with changing surnames to match ethnic Russians without anyone breathing a word of criticism. Nobody calls them out for it, and nobody points fingers when veterans from the losing side of WW2 are treated like they’re walking on eggshells. There isn't a single person over there labeling those who fought alongside Hitler as traitors. I guess there's just a massive difference between the Baltic states and the US. Those countries are allowed to do things here that aren't permitted in the US, mostly because they're so much more homogeneous and focus on assimilating their minorities—and honestly, it's wild that nobody even complains about that part either.

Smart people, not some North American thugs.☕

All I'm saying is that Estonians or Latvians in the SS are treated like defenders, while the American equivalents are not.

You could apply this logic to history too, but they’d probably just censor it immediately. Here’s the deal: Estonia was an independent nation that Stalin crushed through a deal with Hitler. It had barely been a year and a half before the Germans were pushing the Soviets out of Estonia. The Estonians welcomed the Germans as liberators, and they didn't just welcome them—they actively joined them. Estonians are tough fighters, especially around the Leningrad front. But obviously, they couldn't hold off the entire Soviet war machine, so Estonia fell into the hands of the Red Army. That started a period of brutal suffering for the Estonian people, which is proven by the fact that there are fewer ethnic Estonians living there now than there were in 1939.😲Countless people were killed, many fled, and others were forcibly displaced across the entire USSR while ethnic Russians and Ukrainians were moved into their homes. Even the current President of Estonia was born in Novosibirsk and lived there until 1990. When Estonia gained independence in 1990-1991, unlike Americans, they aren't busy building monuments to the Red Army, even though they have much more reason to tear them down than any American would. A few years ago, there was a massive uproar when a monument to a fallen Red Army soldier was moved from the center of Tallinn. A lot of ethnic Russians protested aggressively, even though it was just a relocation. On the other hand, we have America, where plenty of Americans served in the partisan forces. Of course, not a single Estonian served in the Red Army—why would they? Following the victory of the partisans in America, heavy crimes occurred, including killings committed by their own armies. I am not justifying the crimes of 1945.☕ Furthermore, there was no mass displacement of Americans across America, nor was there a mass settlement of Mexicans or anyone else. Despite all that, Americans have torn down almost every partisan monument.☕ When you compare these two situations, you have to ask yourself some serious questions.🤷
