Victory Day Parade 2013

[Deleted]

I made this thread because i found it rather disrespectful and disgusting for the lack of western coverage of anything related to eastern countries except childish hate and propaganda.

Apperently some blond celebrity fucking a random sports player is more important than the day when the onslaught of 400.000 american superheroes and 27 million strong Soviet men and women has come to an end.

Extremely biased OP, angsty as fuck - where else can this thread go? Other than a prompt lock.

OT, i wish all people well - but... western media is western media. Don't be so indignant it's full of pricks.

[Kraenen]

While I'm certainly happy about celebrating this day, I don't like Putin saying this little tidbit:

What about all of the other countries?

Yeah fuck the British and the United States and all their allies.

Even if the US hadn't invaded normandy the Sovjets would probably march into Berlin. Stalin wasn't someone who forgave and forgot, and after the war he still had millions of people sent to gulags to die. Little difference than sending them into the hell that was the east front.

However; The Nazi's never tried to control the world. They wanted the third reich to rule over Europe, basically make it an union under German rule.

Such a liar. I suppose Russia hasn't changed much. Sad.

And continue across the rest of war-torn Europe finishing what the Nazis started. I think the most important part of US participation was keeping the Soviets out of Western Europe. They'd be celebrating a different Victory Day.

True. If the US hadn't landed in Normandy I'd root for the Nazis. The sovjet was in many ways far more brutal than the Nazis, mainly the extensive use of rape as a war tactic.

If you had posted this thread in a decent way without nation bashing then maybe we wouldnt think so poorly of you.

[Adam Jensen]

Americans don't care about a Russian parade. Your point? Do Russians care about our Memorial Day parades? I mean, we only gave them the second front that Stalin was begging for, the ungrateful punks.

I would be interested in a Russian parade, and not only to take note of their equipment and come up with counter strategies.

[Ashnazg]

Indeed, indeed, they contributed nothing, it was only through the glorious power of CCCP military might that the Nazi's were defeated.


(/sarcasm)

Has Putin been seeming a bit (or maybe a lot) overly nationalistic lately to anyone else?

The German machine was broken in the East though. Even if the Western countries didn't do anything but hold the trench front, the Soviets would've triumphed.

As opposed to gassing people to death on a systematic basis?

Arguable. And again, it would have left almost the entirety of Europe under Soviet sway. Which was just as bad as leaving it to the Germans.

And they achieved their goal 65 years later.

You care too much about something so insignificant.

I for one do not care for "soviets" at all. They plunged my country and the entirety of Eastern Europe into superficiality, corruption, stupidity, and a place where you do not lead a successful life by fairness but by trickery. I wish they'd die again, if anything.

If you can't lead a successful life in your country except through trickery, I am thinking the fault lies with you, not with the system.

All it takes for corruption to go away is for people to stop thinking that the only way to function is through bribery.

But hey, it takes concentrated effort and civic responsibility. Its easier to blame the system.

superficiality, corruption, stupidity

I don't even know what you mean by the first on that list, but stupidity? Please. The Soviet education was probably the best in the world, but even if not, it was among the best in the world. Whatever country you came from probably benefited significantly from being integrated into the Soviet education machine
