Are these specific weapons (and one plane) actually picked for a reason or is it just to reinforce this idea of “Guy who thinks history is just battles and wars” kind of thing?
I thought not invading Russia during winter was genuinely good advice. Did I miss something?
It’s simplistic and lacks nuance. Russia in the spring and early summer is very muddy, and would slow down an invasion more than the winter, and autumn turns to winter very quickly, so there’s only really about a month and half of the year that you could actually “invade”, but it is borderline impossible to actually organise and carry out an invasion of such a massive country in such a short amount of time.
It’s spoken by a lot of these guys as a Truism rather than an actual examination of Russia’s material conditions.
Hey Matt christman exists too

is this historical understandingThis is just reddit
If i ever learned anything from channels like History, it’s that the anglo historians are full of overwhelming regret that nazis had lost.
Oh fuck off, you didn’t have to use the best civ game out of seven to call
methis guy out like that 😭I had to check if Dan Carlin and Hardcore History were the same and they are. Literally every Reddit post about history circa 2017-18 would talk about Dan Carlin. I genuinely thought it was some astro turf movement.
Just the echo chamber effect
i think japan would have surrendered
I’ve always thought it would have resulted in two Japans, like how Korea and Germany got split. But I have no idea where the socialists in Japan would have gained power. I know they existed though, like that guy who got killed with a sword on TV.
Japan was already surrendering, actually. but it was to the Soviets
Used to work with this guy.
He also thought that the Kurds working as US proxies were the coolest guys in the world.
Second only to the gurhkas
As a guy who knows a lot about history, this was partially accurate to me at like age 23
