fun fact: Walt Disney built a small train track for his daughters in his backyard

> I believe part of why the swedes started losing had to do with the fact that the King pulled a ww1 and got hit in the head by a sharpshooter
@ThiccSpicyGenderRevealParty Sounds like you're talking about Carolus Rex, unless this happened to another Swedish king... except Carolus was hit in the chest I think

no, is was hea

head

I could've sworn he was hit in the chest, but given how he was standing in the trench getting hit in the head would make sense

I'm thinking of Gustavus Adolphus, he was hit in the chest

gustavus was hit in the chest twice and then shot in the temple

> So I picked this model kit up at Good Will, and was surprised it came with all the parts it needed to build it. But I had a question, and that was what era is this tank? Looks WWII to me, but I suck at history, so idk.
@MynLlama 🦙 You my friend are one lucky bastard because you not only found an intact KV2 kit, you found one thats by tamiya, who have a reputation of making high quality kits

Yo nice

I kinda feel bad now... this is my first model of im making 😂

Fun Fact: During Operation Barbarossa, a lone KV2 held off an entire German Panzer Division at the town of Raseiniai and the crew only ditched the tank after they ran out of ammunition. In fact, there's an award in World of Tanks Blitz called The Raseiniai Heroes medal which you obtain if you kill all members of the enemy team as a dedication to the KV2 which is now called The Monster of Raseiniai

and that is hopefully the last time i type out a mini essay in discord

oh that so cool

in fact, im hoping to get either a KV2, or an M4 variant as my next tank

For Carolus Rex, during Poltova he was shot in the chest but lived, going into exile in the Ottoman Empire. When he returned to Sweden he led a siege on the Dano-Norweigian city of Friedricksholm where he was shot in the head and killed

En Livstid I Krig

Sabaton song all about it

Don't know if they got a English version of it

I think the english version is Lifetime of War, they have the same rhythm just differing lyrics

but that doesn't make sense because lifetime of war is about the thirty years war?

The Swedish versions differ from the english version, that's all I can say

I made a quick infographic comparing fascism to communism... I know fascism is a terrible idea, but people should hate communism more than fascism

uh

you realize that communist regimes were also fascist right

Sort of

Both were bad and horrible, both did horrible things, both did good things(though the bad outweighs the good)

crusades where cool but have you ever defended you land against pagan raiders that it became arguable the event they made them convert

Having lived in a communist county for a while before now, I'd say the only difference between facism and communism is the public statement of purpose.

tru

For sure. Everyone calls Republicans the Fascists for being on the right, but it seems that modern American Republicans literally just want small government and lower taxes, which is kinda not Fascism in the slightest. If anyone is closer to wanting dictators it’s the lefties...

@米饭和面条

And there's the definition of fascism.

I do believe that it is true that fascism is right wing but there are many different definitions for "right wing".

Hierarchy, nationalism, and monarchy are all right wing, but so is capitalism and traditions.

No one is right wing on most issues. No one is left wing on most issues. To say someone isn't a fascist because they, for example, are a socialist or are socially progressive is stupid.

Fascism is more center authoritarian than left or right auth

But what places it on either side depends on the economic system used

economically it's in the middle
