@@bummedmachinist7483 you asked what it was like for people during the civil war... to be historically honest, it was really bad for the communists, too. civilians had to sign official papers that declared that they were not communists. if they insisted on being communists, they could face inprisonment, exile on Soviet countries, or they were pariahs -could not find a job and basically were second class citizens, for many decades, until the late 80s when the Communist Party (KKE) was accepted on the Greek Parliament. but it is true that around 1950's when the communists were powerful, they terrorised the civilians all around Greece; it is a fact that the guerrilas would steal from the properties of the civilians, money, food, animals, or even their children, to use them as soldiers. I have been told the story of a boy from a village, that was saved because his parents hid him in a cupboard. other boys were abducted and indoctrinated in communistic ideology in order too become communist soldiers. girls too, sometimes. just imagine that.

Iron Curtain is an example of incredible stupidity. Of Western Europe (mostly Germany) - lost a million "workers". If not for the "iron curtain" - the losses were filled in with Eastern Europe (the Soviet bloc). But Western Europe had to compensate the loss of Arab and African countries, which has ruined Europe. The West was the initiator of the Iron Curtain, not the USSR. The West tried to harm the Soviet Union (which happened in 1991), but ruined himself.

Now don't worry, I'm not gonna start that usual rant and ridicule, but I'll say that he's screwing with US budget (causing the economy to fluctuate wildly, have a look at the GDP charts) and, more depressing, diplomatic relationships. Influence on other countries is weakening. Sure, the USA may still wave its rifles to great effect. But that's not all there is to diplomatic relations. I'm German and when I look at my country... well, we make mistakes. Any country does. But the allies gave us another shot at a peaceful Germany and I think we did that graceful decision justice. I love the USA for helping build my home as I know it and it makes me sad to look at how it's developed since Truman. Europe may be mediocre in some aspects. We don't have the greatest armed forces, the greatest economy, the greatest territory. But we've had a long lasting peace and despite the British leaving of the EU, the cooperation of European states is great overall. If that's mediocre to you, I'm afraid we'll have to agree to disagree.

what do you mean you ignorant idiot? Before germany was united under zollverein and afterwards in the 1870s the holy roman empire had a very war-like status. Germania has always been very warlike and the german province Prussia is the only state to have been banned from existing ! Not only this, but after centuries of violence and warring, germany underwent an imperialist period and precipitated a world war ! Then they did it again! If you are referring to the empire, think again. Do you know that after the concert of vienna in 1815 and up to 1914 the period is known as 'pax britannia' (british peace) among historians? Of course you dont, because youre an ignorant fool. Everybody agrees that the british empire was a bad thing but at the end of the day india, or whatever shithole you come from, was vastly improved by british control. Britain didnt even control most of india, most was controlled by the dutch and french. The british occupation was much more civilized than the latter.

It was never close as to which ideology was better for it's citizens. One side had to literally erect walls to keep it's citizens in, famine, appalling working conditions and lack of goods. The other side withstood the test of time and cost of the arms race because it's fundamentally a better system.

8:41--Countless German women were raped and worse by the Red Army. Were they probably nazis? Yeah. Ijs, they didn't exactly allow them to live "as best they could". Edit: (Very next comment) Oh, right.

Rape happens in every single war ever fought. Sadly. War is the ultimate crime because it allows millions of lesser crimes to happen underneath it. It's why Tony Blair is so hated.

While Europe was devastated physically and economically by the war, America was the only country ON EARTH which BENEFITED from the biggest conflict in human history. While entire populations were being slaughtered and ancient cities utterly destroyed, America PROSPERED (with full employment) in her untouched factories and homes by producing fridges, movies and cars for herself while mercilessly demanding that RANSOMS be repaid by European countries who could barely support themselves. (Rationing in Britain only ended in 1954!!) The 'fortunes' of war. Thanks Yanks

The United States rebuilt Europe through the Marshall Plan. The only country that actually repaid the entire amount was Sweden; the evil US also kept feeding and loaning money to Europe. That was after the US lost 300k soldiers in a war that wasn't of our making, but then, we did that before in the first World War, didn't we? You stupid bastards think the US is supposed to support you forever. Now we know why so many Americans are becoming isolationists. You stupid fucks are incapable of the most basic gratitude, nevermind being unable to see freaking reality.

The U.S. *did not* have to deploy its forces to Europe. In fact, up until shortly before the Pearl Harbour attack, the majority of Americans wanted to "let Europe stew in its own juices." Had America *not* entered the war, the Soviets would have prevailed in the war in Europe *by themselves.* Western Europe, possibly including the UK, would likely have lived under new communist governments approved by Generalissimo Stalin. Many of the people of those countries would been executed by Soviet occupying forces--others would have been deported and sent to gulags.

@@stickiedmin6508 1. That communists were just premature antifascists. The fact that they worked with the German American Bund and supported Hitler from 1938 through 1941 is hidden from people. 2. Joe McCarthy had 2 lists of names, everyone was arrested on the second list. No one is taught he had 2 lists. 3. Stalin ordered communists to back Hitler for Chancellor fearing social democrats more. That's right, communists elected Hitler! How's that for a start?
