They literally lost 3/4 of their airforce in the first 6 months of fighting

2019-05-10 10:11:11 UTC [Sparta #history]  

not quite 3/4 but around 70% if I'm not mistaken

2019-05-10 10:11:43 UTC [Sparta #history]  

They had more than enough range to conduct defensive operations had they been placed in the rear

2019-05-10 10:12:12 UTC [Sparta #history]  

They just couldn't be placed in the rear *and* conduct offensive operations

2019-05-10 10:12:27 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Just look at the composition of the soviet army during the invasion of Finland and Poland in 1939

2019-05-10 10:12:43 UTC [Sparta #history]  

It was the same

2019-05-10 10:13:18 UTC [Sparta #history]  

That just tells me you don't know how different armies are composed and placed on the battlefield

2019-05-10 10:13:38 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Stalin didn't need Germany to invade

2019-05-10 10:13:45 UTC [Sparta #history]  

He was convinced WW1 would repeat itself

2019-05-10 10:13:50 UTC [Sparta #history]  

and he was mostly correct

2019-05-10 10:14:02 UTC [Sparta #history]  

the only mistake he made was not predict how quickly Hitler would overrun Western Europe

2019-05-10 10:14:05 UTC [Sparta #history]  

nobody did

2019-05-10 10:14:17 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Even Hitler himself was surprised again and again

2019-05-10 10:14:26 UTC [Sparta #history]  

especially with France and Norway

2019-05-10 10:14:49 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Stalin's plan was to let the west fight it out then proceed west himself

2019-05-10 10:15:00 UTC [Sparta #history]  

with his thousands of new tanks and planes

2019-05-10 10:15:30 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Of course it wasn't all Britain's fault

2019-05-10 10:15:48 UTC [Sparta #history]  

as I said, Hitler was too rash and impatient but certainly not a moron

2019-05-10 10:16:04 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Churchill was no moron either

2019-05-10 10:16:27 UTC [Sparta #history]  

but it's not like he had any intention of ending the war when he could have in the spring and summer of 1940

2019-05-10 10:17:13 UTC [Sparta #history]  

@TwinVickers I don't claim to have some deep personal insight into Stalin's mind, this is not hidden knowledge, it's all out there

2019-05-10 10:17:47 UTC [Sparta #history]  

He was made PM on May 10th

2019-05-10 10:18:15 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Both himself and the ministers before him had ample chances to not only end the war but find a settlement with Poland before it had even started

2019-05-10 10:18:56 UTC [Sparta #history]  

the conclusion is that WW2 was not some heroic struggle against evil but a tragedy perhaps bigger than WW1 that should've never happened in the first place

2019-05-10 10:19:01 UTC [Sparta #history]  

and it lead us right where we are today

2019-05-10 10:19:21 UTC [Sparta #history]  

What's funny is that the British still have that old imperial gleam in their eye

2019-05-10 10:19:32 UTC [Sparta #history]  

thinking that the empire must be out there, somewhere

2019-05-10 10:19:41 UTC [Sparta #history]  

it's just been misplaced

2019-05-10 10:20:05 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Of course they did, and?

2019-05-10 10:20:32 UTC [Sparta #history]  

What is your claim of righteousness here when the allies let all of Eastern Europe to the Soviets after 1945

2019-05-10 10:20:58 UTC [Sparta #history]  

When Poland didn't even exist in 1940, Britain wargoal was finished

2019-05-10 10:21:18 UTC [Sparta #history]  

and it had no chance to peace-out with Germany on her terms had it not brought in the United States

2019-05-10 10:21:40 UTC [Sparta #history]  

under a president which just so happened to dislike both Germany and the Empire

2019-05-10 10:22:17 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Anyways I've got to get going but at least this talk has been more civilized here than I expected

2019-05-10 10:23:00 UTC [Sparta #history]  

The US embargoed Japanese oil and intentionally placed its entire pacific fleet on Pearl Harbor

2019-05-10 10:23:19 UTC [Sparta #history]  

It's not squeaky clean either

2019-05-10 10:23:24 UTC [Sparta #history]  

nobody was

2019-05-10 10:24:27 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Even so, Roosevelt kept sending Britain war supplies even before the german declaration of war after Pearl Harbor

2019-05-10 10:24:51 UTC [Sparta #history]  

and the only reason Hitler did do that is so that the Uboats could have engaged American shipping on the Pacific

2019-05-10 10:25:05 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Lol, the US took the UK to the 'cleaners'

2019-05-10 10:25:18 UTC [Sparta #history]  

All their valuable enterprises sold for scraps

2019-05-10 10:25:22 UTC [Sparta #history]  

all their imperial gold

2019-05-10 10:25:38 UTC [Sparta #history]  

just everything was wiped clean even before the war had reached a conclusion

2019-05-10 10:26:45 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Centimetric radar radar, not radar as a whole

2019-05-10 10:27:01 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Anyway I've got to get going

2019-05-10 10:27:04 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Cheers

2019-05-11 13:30:52 UTC [Sparta #cars]  

It sounds ridiculous but maybe it has something to do with the fact that they have a big reliance of rare Earth elements, as well as the fact that there's no proper infrastructure to make sure depleted batteries are properly recycled or disposed of

2019-05-11 13:31:50 UTC [Sparta #cars]  
2019-05-11 14:42:56 UTC [Sparta #cars]  

sure but there's legit concerns crazy taxman aside

2019-05-12 15:02:45 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Good question

2019-05-12 15:02:52 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Probably related to a movie or some shit

2019-05-12 15:03:31 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Oh you're high up, might if I ask a question?

2019-05-12 15:04:04 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Yeah could be it

2019-05-12 15:04:17 UTC [Sparta #history]  

I was wondering when I'll be able to post memes in <#372508286529961996> lol

2019-05-12 15:04:25 UTC [Sparta #history]  

been here for a couple of weeks

2019-05-12 15:04:40 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Oh it's automatic?

2019-05-12 15:04:52 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Alright neat

2019-05-12 15:04:55 UTC [Sparta #history]  

thanks

2019-05-12 15:27:33 UTC [Sparta #breaking-news]  

Fuck the church officials too for allowing this

2019-05-12 15:27:36 UTC [Sparta #breaking-news]  

Cucktards

2019-05-12 15:28:39 UTC [Sparta #breaking-news]  

Next thing you know Notre Dame will be turned into an H&M

2019-05-12 15:28:43 UTC [Sparta #breaking-news]  

or a Sephora

2019-05-12 15:28:46 UTC [Sparta #breaking-news]  

fuck's sake

2019-05-13 12:56:59 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Music can reinforce or chip away at morals, most prominently at a younger age.

Pretty sure that whatever message this slut is trying to pass in anything but moral

2019-05-13 12:58:35 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

And her dozens of clones as well

2019-05-13 12:58:55 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Yeah I'm willing to wager it has an effect on how kids act, dress and talk like

2019-05-13 12:59:30 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

It doesn't mean they've done any deep thinking about any of it, and even if they outgrow it eventually it still makes them more tolerant towards this type of behaviour

2019-05-13 12:59:36 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Meaning their kids will be worse off

2019-05-13 12:59:57 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

And so the slippery slope of degeneracy keeps on going through the generations, progressively getting worse and worse

2019-05-13 13:00:48 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Singers didn't wake up one day and said "Ok today we're pushing twerking and race mixing on little kids"

2019-05-13 13:01:35 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Yeah that's a great word to describe it, the tone

2019-05-13 13:01:53 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Maybe Sargon would use a word like Zeitgeist

2019-05-13 13:02:02 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

albeit the tone is part of that I guess

2019-05-13 13:03:05 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

You know, this is probably one of the more civilized servers I've been in

2019-05-13 13:03:20 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

No cuck this, nazi that, retard the other, etc.

2019-05-13 13:03:35 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Yeah I mean, it's what kids do

2019-05-13 13:03:48 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

It's in their microchip so to speak, that they wanna be part of the group

2019-05-13 13:04:23 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

It's not like they have an understanding of how any of this is undermining their own culture at large

2019-05-13 13:04:38 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

and most of them grow up never to understand it in the first place

2019-05-13 13:04:58 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

honestly you can't blame them

2019-05-13 13:12:32 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Heh yeah so it's not just up to you as a parent to guide your kids towards a proper path

2019-05-13 13:12:40 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

but also up to the other parents to do the same

2019-05-13 13:12:58 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

otherwise your kid will be the outlier, and thus miserable for most of its childhood

2019-05-13 13:14:23 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Not sure where else to put this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xj4Jpsk22eI

2019-05-13 13:14:44 UTC [Sparta #history]  

Still no preview, lol ok, title is
"A green new deal for Notre Dame"

2019-05-13 13:15:47 UTC [Sparta #history]

2019-05-13 13:20:23 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Had to read it from the top of the pic but here http://dichotomytests.com/

2019-05-13 13:26:40 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Yeah ahahaha

2019-05-13 13:26:43 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Just passed that one

2019-05-13 13:29:53 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

Tfw can't post images ahahaha

2019-05-13 13:30:05 UTC [Sparta #politics-free-for-all]  

I guess the link will work

2019-05-20 12:01:02 UTC [Sparta #breaking-news]  

Yeah try writing a romantic letter over gmail

2019-05-20 12:01:06 UTC [Sparta #breaking-news]  

It'll work out great

2019-05-20 12:01:45 UTC [Sparta #breaking-news]  

That doesn't mean we should just stop having a mail service

2019-05-20 12:02:02 UTC [Sparta #breaking-news]  

Lol

2019-05-20 12:02:42 UTC [Sparta #breaking-news]  

Besides miscellaneous letters I just think putting all your eggs in one basket, in this case electronics, is never a good idea

2019-05-20 12:02:53 UTC [Sparta #breaking-news]  

Same reason I'm against voting online etc.
