    Fuck Nazis

    Yes but also let’s not let amerinazis completely rewrite history here.

    • The war started in 1939.
    • America remained Neutral until Pearl Harbor in late 1941.
    • D-day happened in 1944, and was America’s first major land battle in the European theatre.
    • The war was over in 1945 when the Soviet Union (under Stalin) captured Berlin. They were an ally.

    Prior to this, America was supportive of eugenics. Even now, a lot of Americans are in favor of eugenics if you just don’t phrase it as if it’s volunteer-based (I.e. paying women to get sterilized).

    After this, we were so butthurt about the commies being the heroes that we proceeded to tow the world around on a decades-long dick-measuring contest during which most the world felt they could get turned to dust at any moment, and proceed to re-write history to make it out as if America were the heroes, Churchill was the goofy sidekick, and Hitler screwed up by entering Russia in the winter.

    Good thing cinema/entertainment is our biggest export, eh? Hollywood is a real-world minitru.

    If there’s one thing Trump has done well, it’s shatter the fourth wall of the second estate.
