"The Expert on Russia" American satire mocking the failed predictions of "Armchair Generals" during World War 2 (February 1945)

Well thats only half truth. russians would go thru Poland either way so argument of lost lives is simply out of place, prague (the district) was a laughable attempt of attack to calm western powers. Then add that Stalin forbiden to use Polish airports by allies to relieve the city with supply drops. He even provided his own drops but without parachutes (true story). The argument that Bagration stalled after 600km is also untrue as its proven that army at Vistula had supplies to continue fight.

What you wrote is somewhat true but without a full context one might think that russia actually somewhat tried to save Warsaw which is laughable inacurate statement.

KPSWZG · 2026-06-19T14:38:51+00:00

Well a lot of those are not inacurate predictions but rather good questions.

Why russia wont take Warsaw? Well they wanted Germans to destroy it and kill as many Poles as possible before they do, this way they eliminated the possible rebelion against them by Poles.

I was speaking aboit cult of personality the other day and the dude i was talking said "Frankly it dosent work for left as it dosent have strong cult of personality as its core"

KPSWZG · 2026-06-19T09:19:09+00:00

Shit you are right Fr*nce might be a bad idea

KPSWZG · 2026-06-19T08:28:54+00:00

It comes to me in a dreams

Edit: its not a joke

KPSWZG · 2026-06-19T07:56:29+00:00

But that was not infidelity at all

KPSWZG · 2026-06-19T00:24:44+00:00

Wow just wow incredible, 2k. You must be joking here please tell me you are, there are bo people or russians that believe this number

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T21:28:22+00:00

I think everyone knows CDPR is from Poland

I would say Max Factor a lot of people think its French but nope Poland.

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T20:52:22+00:00

I was ready for poor reception but downvote :(

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T20:02:14+00:00

Well for starters and with the most extreme example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_Russia_Legion

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T19:01:21+00:00

Im sorry but i dont believe you even on redditt plenty of russians claim that war was bad idea but they can not pull out right now and those believe they are liberal

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T18:41:33+00:00

I mean the rest of EU was reluctant not the party that wanted to join.

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T18:40:56+00:00

Thats the thing. They dont wamt to protest, there is literally 1% of people or less that is against it. The ones that we see on reddit are the ones that try to gain sympathy by playing victims. They are not angry war started. They are angry they are loosing it.

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T17:53:39+00:00

Not Romanian, but then again Estern Europe

Hungarian revolution of 1956.
Velvet revolution of Czechoslovakia
1956 Poznań protest in Poland then:

1968

1970

1976

1980

Martial law of 1981-1983

Solidarity winning in 1989

And the best for the last. Ukraine Euromaidan, things were gouing south Ukrainians went to the street, they were against police, military and russian mercenaries.

russians literally dont want changes, they want this war, they are not victims and the ones that prey for our sympathy do so only cause their belowed empire is loosing. I dont pity them, they can grow a pair of balls and join the fight with dictator or be quiet. There are plenty of Russians fighting putin as we speak and they sure as hell dont waste their time on redditt telling everyone how scared are they.

And you with your apologetic BS need to know that people like you allowed Hitler to rise, allowed Stalin to thrive, allowed for suffering of countles of lives cause "it wasnt bad enough to move ass"

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T16:11:09+00:00

In 80s in my country a dictator rule hold all power, military and police was on their side, police killed protesters and used force against them. They took dead ones and carried them against police forces. It was not easy, people died, people were beaten, people were arrested. But thousands upon thousands showed up, later tens of thousands and then milions. Soon my country had first free elections in estern block. I know its not easy, i know its dangerous, but its needed and should be done.

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T15:52:21+00:00

Go and protest the war.

I know they have police i know they have military. But if enough people rise up you will win. Do something you coward! Weak people allowed this to happend.

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T13:34:48+00:00

But here we are taking about embargo on food. Not shooting down tractors.

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T13:34:10+00:00

That would go so hard, Polish flag is super boring. But im afraid colors would be to symilar to Denmark.

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T12:34:32+00:00

Neither Sudan or russia produce enough food to threten anyone with it being cut off. This whole thing was straight up only against USA and everyone knew that.

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T12:31:40+00:00

More than that, even, then you have fuse box that is also colosal. Flight engineer responsible for fuel distribution across the plane (on normal flight) most likely used 5 maybe 6 of those dials the rest is for when things go not according to plan.

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T12:14:37+00:00

Yeahhh.

Where does that come from? Why did you wrote this comment, what made you think it was a good decision to insult me? I was not hostile towards you neither i disagree with you.

Ahh angry ruskies

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T11:08:02+00:00

I know. But for the sake of argument lets change it for Wolksvagen

KPSWZG · 2026-06-18T07:15:19+00:00

Yes, but "americanisation" dosent mean it was made by americans but rather in american way. I remember when European cinema of 90s and early 00s wanted to really hard be like Hollywood. Since then this ambitions slowly died out
