Why are autists always obsessed with WW2?

>>82559228 (OP)
They imagine their life having meaning and fighting in the war(And surviving somehow), typically on the nazi side

>>82559228 (OP)
black and white thinking
tons of rabbitholes
cultural significance

>>82559238
I'm proud to be one of the few autist that is more interested in the Pacific theater, JAPS INCOMING

>>82559228 (OP)
this was the last time european men had strength. 100 soviet or nazi soldiers could possibly defeat 10k modern european "men" if they had the same weapons

>>82559250
americans who went to the pacific back then actually lamented the fact that they were fighting japs instead of the cool big bad nazis.

what's funny is that when 8yo me played cod waw, despite no prior knowledge or even knowing what ww2 even was i had the same feeling. cod waw was my first exposure to japan and i saw it as nothing but another boring asian country like vietnam.

>>82559250
favorite aircraft carrier?
im pretty boring i like USS enterprise, shit was literally alien technology back then a nuclear powered engine

>>82559250
Are you one of those weebs who deny Japanese war crimes?

>>82559250
Which IJA unit is your favorite and why is it 731?

>>82559256
this is pure copium, they would get eradicated the war doctrine is entirely different
do you really think traumatized retards on heroin and meth really could stand a chance against navy seals, read moar retard

I was completely retarded as a kid and thought we were still enemies with the empire of Japan, I didn't realize it was North Korea I was seeing on the news
>>82559274
For me it's gotta be the USS Hornet mostly because of the Dolittle Raid

>>82559322
The Taliban did well enough.

>>82559330
the taliban didn't beat the us 10k vs 100, it was the other way around lol pure existentialist copium, no amount of willpower and fanatism beats a well-supplied mechanized army this is war 101

>>82559358
The Taliban and the US was playing two completely different games and yell at each other that they won

>>82559329
>Dolittle Raid
Why? You like little jap children getting burnt to crisps? Honestly it was a pretty major event...i can't believe people don't talk about it more, more people died than the atomic bombings x2...

I've always been more of USS man then IJN, USS pacific is pure kino McArthur I WILL RETURN and he does...it really is autism crack like anime in real life

>>82559358
"You know, you never defeated us on the battlefield" was said by American Colonel Harry G. Summers to a North Vietnamese colonel, who responded, "That may be so, but it is also irrelevant,"

>>82559368
pretty much that's asymmetric warfare in general which is fake and gay and why WW2 is so cool...it would be really fun if we had a real DER TOTAL KRIEG that's fair with major powers no nukes tho its pure existentialist cocaine

>>82559390
damn, Russians look like that?

>>82559373
>Why?
We gotta pay this nips back for Pearl harbor you know? But for real it was more for how they got bombers to fit on aircraft carriers And how crazy the idea the raid was but they did it anyway. Ok, being honest it was because of the Micheal Bay movie.

In the same boat to be more interested in the USS, but the IJN is still kino too, they gave us a pretty good fight before they got lobotomized by American dive bombers.

>>82559390
>Vasili, defend this Borschtown

>>82559228 (OP)
I'm more of a Roman Empire autist

it was like a mythology to kids born after 1950

>>82559431
>Ok, being honest it was because of the Micheal Bay movie.
There;s a michael bay movie on it?
and yeah i never considered the logistics of it, it was a pretty insane move though at that time japan was pretty much out of air superiority, and I still to be honest Pearl Harbor was one of the most insane attacks ever, would highly recommend Tora Tora Tora, I can't believe the japs almost went through with it, the crazy thing is they were suicidal but was winning for a bit, hong kong same day, philliphines, didn't really turn until midway then it was nothing but misery for them, I really like that battle, turns out intercepted code can change everything, the japs had an overly elaborate plan that maybe would have worked (even if they did US probably just would have built more ships lol) but they got interrupted mid chess move, a reminder of how war really works

>>82559228 (OP)
Idk shit about history

>>82559442
It was the conclusion of Pearl Harbor.
>There's a phrase I want you to memorize. Wo si yi ge mei guo ren. It means "The cinematographer shot herself."

I much prefer the pike and shot era.

>>82559454
Why are these idiots using spears against guys with horses and guns? Are they stupid?

>>82559459
Do you mean guys with spears and guns? It ain't just spears buddy.

>>82559442
It was a really bad movie, I only paid attention to the military propaganda "tough tight knit bro brothers cool guy" parts lol, I should've watched Tora Tora Tora before that piece of work. Iirc the IJN was caught changing bomb types for their planes, that specific moment combined with a few lucky pilots made a pretty big boom. I honestly love the naval war so much bro, there was luck, courage, and a sort maritime chivalry that is so good

>>82559470
Oh I see a couple of them have muskets now. Am I stupid?

>>82559476
No, just blind.

>>82559475
forgor the image
>>82559459
they actually ride around the pike square and shoot at them with guns

>>82559480
So it's like one of those arcade shooting galleries where you put in a quarter and shoot at the guy playing the piano and they just kind of have to sit there and take it?

>>82559475
yeah pacific is pure kino, the way it was fought...i mean the pacific is fucking enormous people don't realize how large it was, moments of calm interrupted by devastation

I still like eastern front though that was pure meatgrinder, that's more the pure existentialist war for survival type vibe, but pacific is chill and kino (chill compared to western, vVERY CHILL compared to east...)

>>82559228 (OP)
is it a crime to like contemporary history ?
its the most interesting form of history since you can actually validate it somewhat.

>>82559486
>people don't realize how large it was
Dan Akroyd actually addresses this in the movie.

Spergs for the most part are whreaboos or however you spell it and pathologically decry nazism which it so fucking funny

>>82559494
clean wehrmacht tho

>>82559483
If you break and retreat, you and everyone else gonna get chased down and shanked.

>>82559483
Kind of but the piano guy has a gun and shoots back
>>82559486
The eastern front was literally hell, Did you watch Come and See? it captures the hell pretty good

>>82559228 (OP)
History Channel after hours programming

>>82559437
3rd Century Roman infantry had the best armor aesthetics too be quite honest

>>82559573
romans in general were pure kino, brilliant more unit level strategies

>>82559228 (OP)
The strictly ordered society with clear rules and ordnung that is often portrayed in nazi propaganda appeals to certain autistic brains.
The huge amount of technological advancements during that period appeals to more technology minded autists.
Like LOTR, the "plot" of WW2 is full of lore and history preceding the events. Autists love lore.
The idea of a stereotypical manly WW2 soldier gives them a kind of role model. They want to be like them because they want to be normal, but they don't fit in with society's current idea of "normal". They look to the past and develop a caricaturized ideal of what a man should look and act like, not realizing that they would have the same difficulties navigating social nuances as they do now.

>>82559619
What happens here? Did these guys sleep in or something?

it was an auspicious moment in human history, a very brief technological period just before nuclear weapons were developed when battleships sailed with aircraft carriers and where the skill of fighter pilots mattered, it changed everything and set the stage for the modern world

>>82559619
They're not wrong. In ww2 suddenly men became valuable to society, especially autists who were capable of fixating on some task. The experience and status as ww2 veterans would compensate for their lack of "social nuances". It is less a power fantasy and more a fantasy of being socially accepted.

>>82559228 (OP)
Because it is THE recent and significant turning point of our history.
And as the West won the Cold War, but sold out to the globalists and Red Chinese anyway, it is pretty clear now that the wrong side won.
>TFW no ethnostate, and no decolonisation, leading to mass-immigration of subhumans to White nations.

>>82559228 (OP)
>>82559619
For me it's the role model thing this anon said, i don't care if it's childish or cringe it helped me a lot in life. That war is one of the worst to be a soldier in and i feel like all the soldiers on all sides are underappreciated for their bravery and what they went through, especially on the eastern front.

>>82559228 (OP)
because everyone's heard of it and a lot of crazy shit happened before during and after it, and you can pretty much divide history into pre- and post-war eras?

>>82559228 (OP)
because disaffected autists pursue the question of
>Why are things fucked up?
eventually we find that the wrong side won the last great conflict for the West

>>82559228 (OP)
>Why are autists always obsessed with WW2?
dysgenic retards trying to live life through some brave soldiers, suicidal ideations wishing to die as a hero
>>82559549
>History Channel
also being psyopped by them

because it was the largest war weve had, theres so much that went into it so its genuinely interesting, its not even a le autism thing. Find me a man irl who doesn't have a slight interest in ww2, ive never met him, ever single man at one point has been curious about ww2.

was watching a documentary about the cleanup operations post stalingrad which was interesting, talking about how some of the 6th army despite staying in the ruins managed to escape and evade capture. Its insane to read about how many men were involved and died at these battles. I'm quite interested in U-boats at the minute. I dont even consider myself a ww2 autist either, its just an interesting topic.

>>82559228 (OP)
It's one of the few times in history that something actually happened

>>82559228 (OP)
For me it's an interesting topic
I like to learn about both perspectives on the conflict
What really drove more to it was the fact how one-sided the official retelling of it is
Nazis were le evil demons wearing human skin and the Allies were heckin wholesome chungus angels who dindu nuffin wrong ever
Genuinely pissed me off how blatantly biased the official narrative is so I went into the topic by myself to learn the truth, which is usually found somewhere in the middle of the two extremes
I don't like discussing this topic with normalfags because their programming kicks into high gear if you show a neutral stance. Just saying that neither side was good or evil is enough to turn some people hostile.
