so depending on whether you're the one getting attacked or attacking there's different traumas from this

conflict and argument is the lifeblood of the drama of war, war itself is an argument

Dudes kill each other for being in the wrong neighborhood it’s insanity

So dumb

to settle the conflict there are two ways; resolution and victory

resolution is the parties end the argument by some resolution, an instrument of law, a treaty, concessions, etc.

victory is of course one side prevails and wins

the other side is totally defeated

resolution > victory

sadly tho humans are humans

well the new way of warfare post-ww2 is indeed mostly on resolution

and perhaps this is why they have the eternal world war going on and fracture of states

now they just fight w money cus no one wants a nuclear winter

victory is the most preferable outcome of war, because it is the end of the conflict for good, the other side ceases to exist, the conflict/argument ceases to exist

unless your Germany

well Germany was totally defeated, the allies had total victory over germany

Ww1 or 2

WW2 is the last major war with decisive victory

Didn’t they lose ww1 then hitler came

yea they lost ww1 and ww1 ended by concession before germany was invaded and conquered

and this set the stage of course for ww2

no one gives Russia credit for ww2 how many people died in that war is insane

the USSR has gotten their credit in recent decades, for ww2 history nerds a lot of the soviet documents got permitted and opened in about 2010s

Idk I just feel uneducated people on the topic leave out Russia and just think of Britain France and the US

Britain and France didn’t do shit in comparison

there was a really good documentary with rare footage and former soldiers on the Eastern Front from all sides; nazis, soviets, partisans, etc.

it was called War of the Century but youtube pulled it years a go sadly

i'll see if i can find it though

easily one of the best, if not the best documentary i ever seen

brilliantly put together

Dam why would they do that, must be so cool seeing it in video, pictures are one thing but a video damn

i think copyright

it was a professionally done one

OFC

and probably controversy

god damn copyright

i mean they say some crazy shit

it focuses on the Nazi vs Soviet story heavily, just a duel of two evil empries really in an ever violently downward spinning maelstrom

Was Us considered allies w Russia

Or more like I won’t fuck w u if you don’t

yes controversially so
