How realistic is the "Good Wehrmacht, bad SS" trope you see so often in historical fiction? Could a soldier really speak badly of a party member like in pic related and not expect to have his brains blown out?
>>
The werhmatch engaged in war crimes in a much higher scale than the UK and the USA and most of them held national socialist beliefs but a good part of them did hate the waffen SS either due to it's extreme cruelty or due to the fact that in the early stages of the war they fought with no sense of self preservation

It's not realistic at all. The reality is "Good Whermacht, Better SS." (((Historians))) may not admit it, but it's the truth.

>>18077598
Hoth, tard wrangled the SS death heads in russia, so yes. In poland the wehrmacht, utterly hated the SS. That said wehrmacht did their own war crimes.
>>
>>18077603
They actually didn't. The wehrmact completely surrendered in 1943 and it wasn't even there. In Poland most of the forces withdrew immediately.
All Thompson guns sent under lend lease went to Nazi partisans. America propped up the partisans that did all the war crimes and all three sides supported them.
It took until 1942 for the wehrmact to even get into Russia and it's primary war crime was Leningrad (obviously) and then stalingrad where Romania did everything.
Afterwards all the war crimes were by partisans and the wehrmact assisted them to some extent but for the most part Nazis weren't even present.
America failed to capture Munich and the reason for low rate of allied war crimes is their forces were very small, lost, and were confined to bases. In 1947 Hamburg rioted and the occupation was useless and allies didn't have anyone available to do anything.

Its nonsense, both were slandered because their values were thrown down by the Anglo-jewish and judeo-bolshevist worlds.

are there video tapes of these crimes?

while the wehrmacht did hate the SS, they were also more than happy to take part in various war crimes, it was pretty much a case of the various factors led to multiple former members of the wehrmacht being employed by both sides of the iron curtain so they allowed them to make a cope narrative of how they totally weren't involved in said war crimes

Ok this thread is just jidf. Nobody is replying to the objections.

Wehrmacht was good compared to the SS but we are talking about German scale here; which means that Wehrmacht was still absolutely degenerate. They would happily rape and murder all women and children they encounter, just don't necessarily waste their time torturing them before.
>>
>>18077598
The good Wehrmacht part is accurate, the bad SS part not so much. At least not in regards to the Waffen SS.
>>18077603
>The werhmatch engaged in war crimes in a much higher scale than the UK and the USA
That's because they were fighting people who engaged in war crimes at a much higher scale than the UK and the USA.
Rules of engagement are something you can only afford if both sides agree, and on the eastern front that wasn't the case.

>That's because they were fighting people who engaged in war crimes
What war crimes exactly Russian soldiers committed during German invasion? Killing German soldiers? (or maybe infiltrating German territory to rape and murder women and children there?) kek
A reminder that more German POWs survived the Soviet captivity than the other way round. GERMANS were murdering prisoners of war - along with non-combatant women and children - not Russians.
>>
Could members of the Wehrmacht join the SS even if they were in active service? How would one get promoted into the various subsections of the SS like the SS-TV and Waffen-SS?
>>
>>18079071
No physical evidence for battle of stalingrad. None of that ever existed and the SS had no real organizational structure and was a Daesh like entity.

Probably not this brazely in front of his men, but the whole idea that talking bad about the Nazis would get you thrown in jail is overblown. It wasn’t like the USSR where you made a joke in front of some friends and got thrown in a gulag, you has to be actively trying to cause a problem. I’d have to go find the report but in one German city their Gestapo branch only ever investigated around 1/4 of the calls they recieved, and of those only took action less than half the time.

My grandpa told me that the germans were good and civilized people even if they invaded us
called russians animals who constantly tried to steal/cheat

Had the Axis won the total war then the narrative likely would have been the "good BEF/Army" and the "bad SOE". Every side of the total war committed horrific war crimes more often than they did not, Germany got probably the worst treatment as they were the losers, but the Soviets run a close second.

Proof?

>Germany got probably the worst treatment as they were the losers
Germans came up with the idea of repopulating the Eastern Europe with Germans by force. idk how you are supposed to do it without committing mass crimes kek. If anything, they were being treated extremely lightly due to becoming the crucial allies during the Cold War. (which, btw, had ended _without_ violent confrontations as both the Soviets and the Western decision makers had working brains)

>Russian soldiers
Executing prisoners of war, theft, abuse of local populations, murder of civilians, facilitation of partisan activity, the pressing of non-Soviet civilians into service, enslavement of non-Soviet civilians, the pressing of children into service, torture.
But that isnt even what we are talking about, partisans were the largest element of war criminals by far, and Partisans were working hand in hand with the Red Army.
>more Germans survived captivity than the other way around
Millions died on both sides, however the Germans tried to keep their POWs alive so they could labor, the Soviets actively tried to work their POWs to death or just outright murdered them.
>Germans were murdering pows
not really no, they executed captured spies as the rules of war permit, same for partisans, the only people they murdered were Russian elements who themselves had been murdering German POWs.
>along with non-combatants
The Soviets regularly armed women and children because they were unlikely to be seen as hostile, this lead to numerous German deaths.
There is ZERO evidence the Germans just went around murdering people, there is ALWAYS in 100% of cases a clear instance of partisan activity in the region preceding German reprisals.

Furthermore, why even lie about this? We SEE TODAY how these people behave, Russians, Ukrainians, we SEE IT TODAY NOW TODAY NOW ON /POL/ THERES TWO ENTIRE THREADS OF IT of Slavic apes murdering POWs in 4k.
same for israel in Gaza.

How much footage comes out of Germany of Germans murdering random people?
none.
how much comes out of Ukraine and Gaza?
tens of thousands of hours of footage of war crimes on film.

out of thousands of hours of Germans fighting in Afghanistan, no war crimes.

We have a precedent, slavs and jews are liars, they commit war crimes whenever they believe they can get away with, sometimes they know theyll be caught they do it anyway.

We must re-evaluate WWII on the basis of this precedent.
We KNOW they lie.

This myth is used to justify the crimes against Germany.
1. We dont sink to the level of our enemies, thats not what White people do, that's what Slavs and jews do, if you think Germany's alleged plot to murder you gives you an excuse to murder them, you have outed yourself as non-White.
This is why Poland was removed from Article 5 and why we withdrew our defense systems after Russian drones penetrated Poland's fake borders LOL.
2. The Germans never plotted to "repopulate" Eastern Europe by force.
Their explicit and express statements refer to Catharine the Great settling Germans in uninhabited regions of inner Russia.

Furthermore, What would refilling Poland, Ukraine, Belarus, and West Russia even do? The resources both then and now were in inner Russia where both then and now NO ONE LIVES!

Your narrative doesnt even have logical consistency it is literally a blood libel against Germans.
3. They were treated horrifically being enslaved and killed in the millions by both sides in the post war era, they had their industry deconstructed in the east, and both Germany's suffered a total cultural deconstruction, it was the destruction of a people.
For Westerners its the murder of a kindred people.

You slavs are subhuman animals who deserve to be exterminated along with jews.
The Germans were completely right, you are screeching pissbabies in defeat who whine and bitch you're on the brink of extinction (despite being 50% of Europe's population) then in victory you are shamelessly cruel celebrating rape, murder and genocide against people you consider enemies, no grace, no mercy, no humanity.

Your anger and frustration is because what I say is true, you are subhumans who do not behave like White Europeans, you behave like africans, half-devil (HAHA MY TURN TO GENOCIDE) half-child (SAVE ME IM BEING GENOCIDED).
