>Make an entire episode dedicated to crying over the holocaust>Immediately followed by an entire episode of american soldiers looting and shooting unarmed civilians in the backGreat show but wtf were they thinking?
>>221057247Where’s the contradiction?
>>221057247The difference between Jews and Germans is that the Germans deserved it.
>>221057247WE WERE ON A BREAK!
>>221057276Kind of sullies the example of the horror of the holocaust when you follow it up with americans being americans
>>221057617Maybe read a book or go to school instead of relying on fiction
>The Germans fight for glory, the English fight for land, and the Americans fight for souvenirs
whats the problem?
>>221057673Seeing the guy souvenir hunting for a luger then dying accidentally makes me wonder how many other people died in stupid ways during ww2
>>221057617How so?
>>221057247>>221057617>war is bad and men like to loot and rape yeah no durr?WWII is still one of the most cartoonishly "good guys vs bad guys" scenarios in history, nothing the allies did in Europe comes close to the holocaust
maybe one anon here will watch this video, but probably not. it's dick winters commentary on band of brothers. the title is gay, intro too. but after the first 5-10 minutes is really interesting to hear. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6lQqToJoeEw
>>221057247>Scott Grimes is a major character in thislol
Hall of cost
>>221057247>Immediately followed by an entire episode of american soldiers looting and shooting unarmed civilians in the backwhat's your contention here? do you think that they were endorsing that happening, or are you saying that it should've been obfuscated?
>>221057849>WWII is still one of the most cartoonishly "good guys vs bad guys”Not even close, you’re only saying that because of the scale. But like how about any people that practiced cannibalism versus people who didn’t, cuz that was pretty common an occurrence in places
>>221057617I think there's a difference in stealing chickens or wine and forcing children to break rocks until they die.
>>221057673You're wrong, as someone who has been in the military Americans fight because they legit really like violence. when we would be going through the aftermath of a strike and moving body parts around guys would be joking with them and posing with the remains for photos and all sorts of shit. Same with actual firefights, the rush that would sweep through the group when a kill was confirmed was better than any drug. This would always make the aussies with us act like fags, but what can you do.
>>221057813>>221057916Showing a bunch of americans crying over war crimes then immediately afterwards committing war crimes themselves kind of lessens the impact on the viewer I think
>>221058102not really, it shows that they believe their violence is justified when done in retribution, highlighting its cyclical nature. that was the moral dilemma being portrayed with liebgott and webster going up to the alleged commandant's home
It's probably the last major production that treated the WWII German army as soldiers and not all cartoon caricatures of SS stormtroopers.
>>221057247deserved
>>221058175Didn’t like 80% of the German army surrender?
>>221058175Strange to think that WW2 movies from the 60s/70s which were made by the actual GI generation portrayed Germans as just a regular army before Spieldberg made them cartoonishly evil in Schindler's List and won a ton of Oscars for that
>>221058241Crazy that she’s a veteran too.
>>221058351I’ve always attributed it to Raiders of the Lost arc
>IMG_[number]i see the schizo sniffed out a ww2 thread so he's here to derail it with loaded shitposts
>>221058326I didn't know the exact percentage but yeah, there were a lot of surrenders because for the most part regular German army leaders weren't zealots like SS and didn't want to see their men get needlessly slaughtered
They were so skinny it's fucked
>>221058403I’m not the schizo retard. I’m phone posting while taking a shit. He always begins his overture with a mass reply. Get better pattern recognition n00b
>>221057247can any anon name them, from left to right?
>>221058380You can't post this image because it makes me want to jack off.
>>221058326>Didn’t like 80% of the German army surrender?Pretty sure they all surrendered or died considering they lost. Not really sure what you're getting at.
>>221058434>Fatty, Brooklyn, Fatty, Stinky, Erwin Linker, Fatty, Fatty, Stinky, Fatty, Stinky and Brooklyn
>>221058474Cotton!
>>221057910the American civil war is the only thing that might be more morally justifiedor are you gonna tell me about how goddamned righteous and important it was it was for the King of Denmark to hold on to a few Duchies and keep the Prussian menace at bay in 1864 ?
>>221058434Harry Welsh, Buck Compton, Donald Hoobler, Joe Toye, George Luz, Richard Winters, Floyd Talbert, Donald Malarkey, Warren 'Skip' Muck, Eugene Roe, Lewis Nixononly had to look up Hoobler's first name
>>221058572Nice bait.
>>221057247>>221058587>some of these guys only have a few lines in the whole showhow are they so memorable?
>>221058617For me it’s Shifty Powers
>>221058011>You're wrong, as someone who has been in the military Americans fight because they legit really like violence. Its a saying from WWI that carried into WWII. You know the real wars.
>>221057865He does a pretty good job.
>>221057849Nothing the Germans did comes close to the Holocaust either.
Realistically what the hell are you supposed to do when you’re outnumbered 1000-1 running an internment camp that could become a 5th column of reinforcements as the war continued to go south?
stopped watching this bullshit when the jew squad leader happened over a hill and spotted like 300 nazis then proceeded to kill 250 of them while they all ran away like complete cowards even though multiple had a clear shot on this sole dude and all thats ignoring the fact they somehow left that flank completely opened i mean what the fuck? and all that was before >muh ptsd over shooting some rando nazi teencomplete AIDS.
>>221060793Winters isn’t jewish
>>221060802probably a Mennonite
Who were the good guys in ww2?
French students meeting a D-Day veteran who helped liberate their country after landing at Normandy
>>221058011Being an irreverent asshole isn't liking violence.
>>221057247>Immediately followed by an entire episode of american soldiers looting and shooting unarmed civilians in the backWhy do Naziboos desperately want to be victims so bad to the point of making shit up?
>>221057247>Immediately followed by an entire episode of american soldiers looting and shooting unarmed civilians in the backWhat are you talking about? I don't remember that on the show.
>>221061771>>221061816not him, they did loot stuff in episode 10. there's also a scene in episode 9 where french soldiers (one played by tom hanks) execute unarmed soldiers, so hes embellishing a little but not totally making shit up
>>221058351The exact same shit happened with even earlier conflicts like the American Civil War. Modern-day leftists have a seething hatred for Rebels (pretty much the ONLY time they don't automatically side with whoever the perceive to be "the underdog") and will openly talk about how the whole of the South should have been genocided and raped.Meanwhile the Soldiers who ACTUALLY fought in the conflict; i.e. the people who were actually at each other's throats in a brutal life-or-death conflict; had more sympathy & respect for each other than people born more than a literal century after the conflict. Following the end of the war the Rebels were not only allowed to surrender with honor & dignity, but in the years afterward the American people being reunited once more was a point of celebration, with people who previously served as Union & Confederate troops having outright public camaraderie.
>>221058351Those GI's weren't Jews. This is why I don't watch any WW2 movies or documentaries. It's all propaganda pushed as "history"
>>221057247Threadly reminder that Sobel did nothing wrong.
>does nothing
>>221061463You too can get this kind of attention if you serve
>>221061891The same thing happened in both the american civil war and World war 2. There was a post war rehabilitation of a truly monstrous regime because executing everyone who had done capital crimes would have been impractical. This is all extremely well documented.
>>221058326As opposed to doing what? Pointlessly fighting to the death even long after the war had a forgone conclusion, ensuring that ALL of you die, along with a much smaller but still significant number of Allies, for nothing? Like what the Japanese did prior to the bombs being dropped?Surrendering to a civilized victorious enemy when continued fighting is pointless and will only result in more needless, pointless death IS not just the honorable action but also the smart, practical & moral one.Between Germany & Japan, the way Germany faced defeat was better than the way Japan did by fucking lightyears.This isn't a "new" concept, either: Surrendering with honor and mutual respect once continued fighting became pointless was literally common and a matter of practicality throughout the history of Western warfare, despite matters of "honor" being even MORE important & inflexible than they became in the modern era. Entire armies of the medieval era would surrender once there was no longer a point to fighting as a part of "Gentlemanly Warfare". Other, non-Western civilizations didn't practice this not as a result of "bravery" but instead because they were less civilized and placed far, far less value on human life than the much more enlightened West did.
