Stopping fascism wasn’t the point. After liberating the camps, they even threw the homosexuals right back in. (Source)
They were just worried that the USSR was going to beat them to Berlin, and then keep going across the entirety of Europe. Likely a valid concern, to be fair.
a nation that once liberated the world from fascism
It’s gross how USAins keep parroting this nationalistic bullshit about their role in ww2.
You guys didn’t liberate anything by showing up late for the war, and you tried your damnedest to spread your abhorrent racism in every country you landed in.
Yeah, nah. You had it right up until we didnt help liberate anything. France seemed pretty appreciative of our help then and now. Not arguing the “abhorrent racism” par it is true and we’re continually working on it. Generational issues don’t get solved overnight.
As a person of Dutch descent who is alive today because US GIs liberated a concentration camp right before my grandmother starved to death, this is extremely offensive, and you can go fuck yourself with your puerile contrarianism.
Shutting down a few concentration camps is not ‘liberating the world from fascism’.
My grandparents and their families were in the camps too, and most didn’t come out alive. I’m not detracting from the atrocities of ww2 by telling the American to stop spouting propaganda.
Speaking of revisionism, saying the Kuomintang (because the CCP didn’t do shit in that war), helped eradicate Nazism when they solely fought Japan while also pretending the Soviets didn’t steal all the scientists they could find is pretty up there as well.
Their version was called Operation Osoaviakhim btw.
And it took about 1,000 more specialists than Paperclip did. 2500 compared to 1600.
It’s perplexing how a nation that once liberated the world from fascism is now becoming fascist and triggering fascist movements worldwide.

Yes, we covered the puerile contrarianism already.

I was thinking it was the cringe car stickers, but you just keep doing you. It’s more embarrassing than anything I could ever say.

While a romantic prose, I wouldn’t go saying they liberated the world of anything like that until it was almost too late.
But when they finally did fight, fuck yeah, they fought.

It’s perplexing how people once liberated from nazism act like nazi and get litterally a wild card.
