It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

I can still feel bad that millions of Germans got killed. But you know who's fault that was? Themselves in aggregate and the nazis specifically. I'm not going to defend the average Fritz. Especially because they had all the fucking guns. Armies exist, in theory, to defend their people. The German army failed that task. They should have deposed the nazis and surrendered when their homeland was under invasion. The outcome of the war was settled it just hadnt ended yet. Instead they fought on, more innocents got killed for the egos of their genocidal masters. I can't defend that shit even on Opposite Day. Fuckin ultras.
Isn't that the same logic used to by Israel? "Why don't the Palestinians just come together and get rid of Hamas? The fact that they don't proves they are the same or support them."
Nazis are evil. It’s good when evil Nazis are overthrown.
Hamas is good. It’s good when they fight occupying Zionists.
You have to accept the Zionist narrative that Hamas is an evil fascist terrorist group to entertain that allegory. Since Hamas isn’t that, you are comparing apples to oranges
This logic literally applies to Israel; Hamas are right to fight; back before Israel flattened Gaza, if they went to the tallest building they'd be able to see where they used to live over the walls built around Gaza, or where their parents lived, which is now occupied by people from Europe and America.
Their homes are literally less than an hour away from their open air prison camp.
Only if you follow the Israeli logic of all Palestinians being armed and being Hamas, the point I was making was a failure of the Wehrmacht, not the civilians. Also Israel isn't fighting to force an unconditional surrender, they want to ethnically cleanse Palestine.
This is why nuance and context are important. Aggressors will always try to paint themselves as the victim when the actual victims defend themselves.
