The invention of communication like phones and computers made it a lot easier for the state to surveillance people and stop them from planning mutinies

Being used as a meat shield in a squabble between European royalty is a lot less popular than fighting to protect your family and people from an army of murder-rape psychos on drugsm

99% of britain remained unharmed, it only really hit london
there was no plan to genocide them, axis forces never set foot onto UK territory

in the case of the ussr you could make the argument that they didn't revolt because they realized that they would just end up getting Operation Faustschlagd 2.0

>>seriously what the fuck are we here for?
none of this is ofc backed up by real statistics but weren't french soldiers keen on getting back alsace-lorraine?

I guess Brits had no real reason to fight

a lot more places than london were affected, that claim alone shows you don't know what you're talking about.

and you you really think people didn't care about a German invasion, as there was no plan to genocide them? bro you legitimately sound like you're 14

The entire city of Coventry was turned to dust stupid fuck.

Besides being blockaded of course

WW1 was far more of a brutal war of attrition. For example, the Allies suffered 620,000 casualties in the Battle of the Somme for only a few miles of territorial gain.

But they also killed an equal number of Germans, quite impressive for a ww1 era offensive.

Britain genocided Napoleonic France with decades of blockades

Midwit historylet take

French mutinied and refused to attack because they could see they were being launched into retarded meatgrinders

>>18487816
ww1 was an intra-imperialist war where the common soldier had nothing to gain
ww2 was an existential struggle for anyone the axis invaded

>>18487895
Petard, WW1's static frontlines would be easier to observe/police compared to WW2's massive & dynamic frontlines

Edgar Hoover firing up his IBM in 1941 and personally flagging pro-Japan shitposts was an unthinkable idea for Tsar Nicholas

Yeah Russia and Austria were super lax in early 20th century and there was legitimate freedom for many people in those societies, but it's not like any Hitler underling could micromanage soldiers grumbling in their trenches in Ukraine

>>18487816
why would they need a revolution
