@TtvPlumoe @Aiam_jayboy she's not "1000% the bad guy". She was corrupted by the situation and after Bradley repeatedly pushed her. Remember how many times she saved him? Her goal was to teach him, but his actions are what finally broke her.

@EzeraAnna @MK_Foxbat Here also you weirdly use the max estimate for Russia while using the lowest for the others I mentioned. btw the Hiwis don't have actual numbers by ethnicity they were just volunteers from wherever. And the numbers here are just wrong? Some stuff I just searched up

@AlexWajoe @MK_Foxbat Just numbers for specific only ethnic russian formations (not soviets): Add + 600k Hiwis and it is more than 1M. Ukrainians were 250K, Belarussians - 75K.

The whole "Latvians were forced to fight with the Nazis" narrative falls a bit flat when you spent the next decade fighting and your monuments/memorials to them are still up. You don't really seem oppressed/unwilling when you actually fought harder/longer than the Nazis...

@EzeraAnna @MK_Foxbat #Soviet_Union" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wehrmacht… Hiwis are one of the several groups of foreign personnel, there were only about 600k Hiwis in total, also Hiwis are Wehrmacht not Waffen-SS Secondly the only "pure" russian SS division is the 29th both of the 30th were mixed from all across the USSR

@AlexWajoe @MK_Foxbat Yet Hiwis didn't perform as a simple non-combatant support. They had their own combat divisions (the 29th and 30th Waffen-SS) and specialized cavalry corps.

@EzeraAnna @MK_Foxbat just about the russian number here, generally its estimated that 1-1.15 million sovies volunteered but of those 250-400k were ukrainians 300-600k were russians and 75-150k were belarussian with many more groups since the USSR was muti-ethnic

@EzeraAnna @MK_Foxbat No, this is false. In WW2 realtively few eastern europeans would see combat on the front they usually were reserved for "Hiwis" which performed non-combat support roles. Also 6 mil balts = 200-300k volunteers and 30-40 mil russians = 300-600k volunteers don't use raw numbers.

@mengiemeng @Aldra_username @xaviersonline_ Just to reiterate in WW2 (except on the eastern front) the Allies and Axis both generally respected the Geneva Convention because breaking it would lead to ie. Your own medics being killed. Nowadays the US doesnt care because their enemies are militias who can't fight back.

@mengiemeng @Aldra_username @xaviersonline_ Volume of War Crimes depends on the enemies ability to retaliate. If you can just bomb someone to the ground and they can't effectively return the favour why would you care about wether or not what you're doing is a War Crime? One of the reasons why the laws worked in WW2.

@_dailydel @RnaudBertrand and the second part is also wrong, as in the Post above the Laconia incident (1942) in which a Uboat torpedoes a troop ship and tries to rescue the Shipwrecked. Support for Shipwrecked was common and it even says that on the article

Abused the rules??? Germany was sinking their merchant fleet. An act of war. Britain was protecting their merchant fleet by sinking the German subs sinking British ships. Shipwrecked were never rescued once war fully broke out. The Germans were not going to risk their subs, nor take them away from their job of sinking British merchant vessels, to rescue and take to port the crews.

Pete Hegseth said this was "the first sinking of an enemy ship by a torpedo since WWII" (which is false, but that's beside the point), so I decided to look at what happened in WW2 and... this might surprise no-one: turns out the Nazis were more humane than the Americans. Probably the most abject part here is that the warship had many survivors - 32 to be precise (apnews.com/article/sri-la…) - and the U.S. made zero effort to rescue them, despite it being required by the laws of naval warfare and simply being the honorable thing to do. It took little Sri-Lanka, with its very modest means - especially compared to the $1 trillion US defense budget - to do the honorable thing and launch a (successful) rescue operation. Even the literal Nazis, during WW2, rescued the survivors of ships their U-boats sank. It was considered a matter of basic honor. The history of this is actually interesting: the Nazis rescued survivors all the way until the so-called Laconia Incident in 1942 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laconia_i…). The Laconia was a British troopship sunk by U-156, a German U-boat, off the West African coast. Right after the sinking, the Nazis immediately began rescuing over 400 survivors, broadcasting - as was common practice - in plain English their position on open radio channels to all Allied powers nearby, so they wouldn't get attacked during the rescue. That's when a US B-24 "Liberator" bomber attacked the submarine anyway, even though all the rescued survivors were on its foredeck. The B-24 killed dozens of Laconia's survivors with bombs and strafing attacks, forcing U-156 to cast into the sea the remaining survivors that she had rescued and crash dive to avoid being destroyed. The American B-24 pilots mistakenly reported they had sunk U-156, and were awarded medals for bravery... This event completely changed Nazi policy on this matter: Karl Dönitz, commander of the U-boat fleet, issued the "Laconiarefehl" - the Laconia Order - forbidding U-boats from rescuing survivors, because the risk to the submarine was now too high. In other words, the Americans during WW2 essentially forced the Nazis to abandon survivors - from the allied side (!) - at sea. Dönitz at least had an excuse.

This Iranian warship thought it was safe in international waters. It wasn't. The @DeptofWar is fighting to win. 🇺🇸

@_dailydel @RnaudBertrand The british then built "Q-Ships" which would look like unarmed merchant vessels to lure the submarine into surfacing and destroy it that way. This isn't seen as illegal but was an abuse and controversial.

@_dailydel @RnaudBertrand Cruiser Rules meant that Submarines couldnt just sink random Merchant vessels without cause, so what the Germans did was Surface with the submarine, enter the Merchant vessel, see if the goods it was carrying were War related, if so tell the crew to abort ship and sink the ship

@_dailydel @RnaudBertrand They stopped surfacing in WW1 already because the brits abused the rules by arming civillian vessels and hiding warships as merchant vessels with which to just destroy surfaced Uboats. whats mentioned here is rescue of shipwrecked which was done throughout both world wars.

@RnaudBertrand No they didn't, you crack head. In WW1 they surfaced and allowed the freighter crew to evacuate before sinking the ship. Later they stopped the practice. They never did it in WW2. IDIOT.

The Russians are in no position to make comments on the subject. Operation Ichi-Go was executed while the Japanese were outmanned 5 to 1 by the Chinese, and unlike the Russians in Ukraine they were actually able to advance and join the Northern and Southern Fronts into one.

Japanese Infantry was the best in the world if you overlook them losing in essentially every situation where they weren’t fighting Chinese conscripts, and yes their Navy “ruled the pacific” until it got blown up six months into the war. Other than that, yes. Sure.

@InfernoOmni No. This is a third and not almost half, one has been exonerated, the other has no evidence against him, and the latest is a legit accusation of long term abuse with some controversy as to whether his actions are SA. The whole post is nonsense.

@_ventanyl Truthfully, it's just a bit of inertia at this point. Once a system is baked into the daily life and the older folks are used to it, changing over becomes a real headache for everyone involved.
