Losing a war?

When you lose a war, how do you learn about it in school? Do they just skip over it and go to wars you won? I, obviously, don't understand the feeling.

We lost the vietnam war though.

Yeah but we killed way more of them so it doesn't count

by fitting it very well in the cuck narrative

I, obviously, don't understand the feeling.

Why not? Your country hasn't won a single war.
> inb4 muh revolution
French+Prussians+Dutchmen fighting Brits
> inb4 world war 1
Won by Britain
> inb4 ww2
Won by Stalin

This.
They taught us the German Army was the evil incarnated and the best way to beat it was to suck American cocks.
Doesn't help that most of our history teachers are commies.

You don't say things like "we lost."

You say things like "public opinion of the war was negative" and "we just decided to pull out."

>vietnam
>war
we were shooting monkeys until the public outrcy caused us to pull out

we achieved our long-term objective friend-o

They just teach you about Reconstruction instead.

>"guys some ppl think wehrmacht was actually not nazis and just soldiers but this isn't le true xD all war criminals xDDDD"

DELETE THIS

His country lost a war

No I live in arkansas, we just learn stuff through a pro-yankee point of view.

I was just in Germany for two months with my German fiancé. The wars are treated like a huge embarrassment. It was weird because in Canada the wars are treated with pride and heroism so when I tried to talk to anyone about them they'd skirt around the subject or laugh nervously. They don't even sing their entire national anthem because parts are deemed too nationalistic. That's how embarrassed Germans are of Germany. My fiancé says in school the time period of the wars is glossed over or completely filled with holocaust propaganda.

WW2 europe was won by stalin
WW2 pacific was won by the US

Yeah you do. Hezbollah fucking wrecked you sleazy kikes.

We didn't lose Vietnam, you probably had a liberal cuck teacher. Look up the Paris Peace accords. We withdrew more and more because it was over and when the NVA started getting braver and braver we just didn't have the political backing from congress to go back in again so we just said fuck all and withdrew the last few men we had there.

Nah you just made generations of young men commit suicide afterwards, and then fucked your supposed ally by not complying to the 1 to 1 equipment replacement deal you promised.

Remember boys, the corporate yank is just a Jew in a nice suit.

And a few months later the communists took over the South you initially wanted to protect.

Canada didn't exist at that point, you were Britain.

Why should we care?

>inb4 Domino Theory

Proved false.

they do the same thing they do when talking about wars they won. lie about the enemy. what do you know about korea/nam? probably not much right?

What?

>there was war
>x fucked up
>we lost

there's not much to explain

>you still lost
>I'm still euro

You know nothing.

Vietnamese communist rice farmers were a huge threat to the sovereignty of the USA. They proved it with their gorilla warfare skills

Canada is always joining the efforts of superior nations then acting like they single handedly won the fucking war.

Name one war Canada went and fought on their own and won. Or lost for that matter. That's right, you're like the kid who jumps in after the loser has been beaten down, kicks them in the head and is all like "WE" fucked them up.

Nazis killed more Russians.

Here after 1982 started the "Proceso de Desmalvinización" that can arduously translate to
"de-Malvinization process".

Democratic governments, being the bitches of the USA and UK, after the dictatorship continued implementing it and also destroying our army.

The goal was to "cleanse" Malvinas from the collective memory of society. Act like the war was never there, the army is not useful and needs to be destroyed for "security reasons".

Fromo Wikipedia:
"the media abstained from mentioning the war and the soldiers returned to the mainland were completely ignored by society, being considered by the collective imagination as mere "children of war" and victims of the military dictatorship that ruled Argentina in that moment"

Whatever helps you sleep leafcuck, you are cucked by the U.S. when it comes to almost every aspect of your government lmao.

A country 1/10th your size took the hardest beach on D-day
We still beat you in war games when the equipment is equalized.
"Britain" still burnt your White house to the ground while fighting napoleon across the pond.

Fear the lumberjack.

We still learn about it

Liberal teachers love to teach Vietnam because "their side" won on the domestic front. Fucking soviet infiltrators.

Korea is ignored.

There's conveniently never time for history after Vietnam because then the teachers were old enough to vote and they have to justify why they let shit happen the way it did, so it's ignored.

Oh and the War of 1812 is also totally ignored.

>Two brothers get into fight at playground

>Still murmurs shit like "fear the lumberjack"


haha Yeah okay leaf, i swear if I were a leaf I'd shoot myself, oh wait lmao.

Canada was the runt of the litter so they needed more attention. Jk Canada I still love you its just some banter

The French curriculum didn't acknowledge much about the nazis. It was only in the 50s and mainly 60s the students started asking questions about their role as an occupied state

So which is it, were we Britain or were we not Britain? Make up your mind.

>learning about wars
I should be so lucky.

At my school our entire history education was some sooped up narrative about the Western slave trade and the holocaust. I remember kids in my college classes arguing about whether or not there really was British Empire because one of them had "heard of it".

The beauty of egalitarian comprehensive eduation.

We have never lost a war

School history is regulated by cuck policies.

French enducation doesn't teach you Vietnam because still nowadays it hurts America's reputation. When we're taught WW2 we're told that the American are the real winners of the war and we tend to forget the gorillions of russians that died against the krauts, but America dindu nuffin, especially when they nuked Japan.

Likewise for Cold War they tell us that the Soviet Union was 100% evil and only did bad sutff while the US acted like heroes, I mean didn't they act well during Cuba? Indeed, they don't mention what the CIA did during the Bay of Pigs and the rise of dictators in South America, but who cares goy :^)

Thankfully I browsed Cred Forums on the sidelines.

In Poland children are taught that we were martyrs and heroes who helped allies.
I don't really buy the idea of celebrating a defeat but it's still better than cucking yourself like Germany does I guess.

>mfw class spent more time learning about the holocaust than WW1 and WW2 combined

One of the reasons on why we were learning the holocaust is "teaching students to be good citizens." I still wonder what the fuck the holocaust has anything to do with that.

Dont forget the deployment of US nukes to Turkey which prompted the Russian response to move nukes to Cuba.

Siempre que salta la cuestión de darles mar a los bolivianos digo lo mismo, Perú tambien comparte frontera con ellos y podría al menos darles 1km de ancho hasta el mar.

Ademas deja de tener frontera con ustedes y eso sería un plus.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki were completely justified, only a cuck would disagree.

>That disgusting language

Fold my burritos and manufacture my cocaine, I don't give a fuck how many people get their heads chopped off Because Iwant my fucking burrito and my fucking cocaine, just get it done, you're all American puppets who will always have a strong american hand so far up your countries ass because "we don't want to deal with" competition in the south. Lmao brownskins

I do agree, but that wasn't my point. Killing 200,000+ people within two days is pretty much unethical, but I've been taught history like this wasn't a real big deal, meanwhile Russians killing 10 civilians is "omg so evil how could they even do this". The US can kill 100,000 people and it's ok, but if a ruskie kills 2 people then they act like it's the worst thing since the Holocaust.

>be 7th grade
>class trip to "Museum of Tolerance"
>Read autobiography of a holocaust survivor.
>even at that age, i sensed bullshit with the whole narrative.

>fighting you will be too hard so we will just massacre your civilians.

Hey I know that sounds like a criticism but Irish terrorists used that exact tactic to defeat the British.

>implying that it was impossible to throw them on uninhabited islands, rural areas, places with minimal collateral damage.

Islands like, you know........the hundreds in front of Hiroshima for example.

Pinochet did nothing wrong.

Allende didn't even have a majority of the votes, he was given power by the center-left coalition in Parliament. Allende shat-up the agriculture and copper mining industries by trying to collectivize them, and staffing their management with retarded commies. Allende has General Prats as his main enforcer, and he dedicated huge parts of the military to being minions for the communists. Prats was eventually ran out of town by civilians for threatening to kill a woman who stuck her tongue out at him; and Pinochet was nominated as head of the military. Allende also hired Cuban and Soviet mercenaries to come into Chile and threaten his political rivals (which violated the Chilean Constitution); and they had a huge terrorist camp on the outskirts of Santiago, with East German and Russian military officers training them. Allende also refused to hold plebiscites as much as possible, so he could force his commie shit through Parliament.

All Pinochet did was restore the Chilean Constitution, and kick the foreign mercenaries out of the country.

Beaners and communism don't mix. Just look at how modern Venezuela sucks absolute ass.

>lots more rapes in Merica than here

>lots more killings in Chicago than in the whole Buenos Aires Province (13.000.000 inhabitants)

>Serial killers here a rare, shicking thing. A nationla sport in Merica.

Oh like the Falkland Islands?

Only cucks lost wars.

We never lost one.

Argentina has a higher murder rate, though.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate

US rate: 3.9
Argentinian rate: 7.6

>hurr durr, why do bigger populations have more murders???

Well, Germany lost both World Wars. Now they learn in their schools how it was all their fault and Britain did nothing wrong. Mexicans are taught how the old Mexican Empire and its inhuman imperialistic ways have cost them California and Texas.

When you win a war, you blow it out of proportion. Americans are taught how they single-handedly wiped out National Socialism from the face of the Earth. Brazilians are taught how they bravely crushed the evil nation of Paraguay with our mighty armies.

When you neither win or lose, it's biased towards the best scenario. America didn't win the Vietnam war, but the Vietcongs certainly didn't defeat the USA, so Americans just call it a "strategic withdraw". Finland didn't win against the Soviet Union, they merely survived until the USSR zerg rush was over, yet Finns celebrate it as a victory.

Here's a tough one: soviets pretty much raped their way to Berlin during ww2 in an understandable (yet inexcusable) response to germany doing the einzats during the first match. Who is the evil fuck?

This situation is good to put a cuck against his own contradictions.

Russian mentality and philosophy has core historical understanding of "russian hardships" i.e. at no historical period were it calm, safe and happy.

Thus we dont overlook our losses, also not specifically dwelling on them either - we have very long history with hell of wars, many wins, some defeats. In case of defeats its taught what historical circumstances led to them.

The only "touchy" subject for whatever reason is Afghanistan war near the end of Soviet Union. On one side Soviet goverment is blamed for it, on other side - those who fought in it considered heroes, and our motives there positive - even though failed.

>Brazil: 24.6

Shit happened, but we totally could've pulled that of if not for the bad luck and/or commanders.

As far as I know, soviet war in Afghanistan was triggered because the afghan gov wasnt very obediant towards the soviet one, the latter sending spetsnaz to send the message "it's about time you change your leaders". It didnt go well. Is that it?

That's why like 1/4 articles on Best Gore are about murders in Brazil.

The only wars we gloss over are the ones where we committed massive amounts of war crimes (although they weren't war crimes at the time)

See:
>War with Phillipines
>Native American war

Short of Custer's last stand nobody knows anything about them, or that they happened at all

>Chicago
>Bigger than 13.000.000 people
OK!

Stats are based on what? the last governmet said that crime "was a media lie" here, where did that list got that number?

And if we are goign to talk stats

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_by_murder_rate (Not even in 50)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_firearm-related_death_rate

The afghani leader and his family were brutally murdered by muslims, then his successor and HIS family were brutally murdered by muslims, so after that the soviets popped over the mountain to fuck muslim shit up but Ronnie helped arm the muslims and they blew up the russians.

Both Lebanon wars tbqh

Hezbollah really gave it to you guys

Afghan gov is the one who requested the Soviet help in first place.

It was part of "Big Game", with Gov vs the western supported Mudjaheddins islamists. Gov wasnt too legitimate too, since it was just after another revolt there - but it was secular and economically tried to advance the country, while the other side litterally the islamist fundamentalists paid by west.

Don't use logic leaf. Anyway americans will never admit that burning the white house was nothing compared to stupidly invading southern ontario rather than montreal\ottawa. Embroiled in useless territory until the brits free few ships to burn down washington. Good thing they learned nothing from it.

>firearm-related
GUNS ARE EVIL!!!! TAKE AWAY THE GUNS!!!

>still doesn't understand how percentages work
MFW.

>firearm-related deaths
Latin American countries that severely restrict guns still have a higher murder rate than the US.

Also, I don't see why pointing-out the nigger zones like Chimpcago is supposed to be an insult to white America.

DAHNALD MY STAND HAS TURNS ANYTHING I TOUCH INTO DELEGATES, YOU'RE FINISHED

>Bosnia

Thanks. It's hard to know in France, this war is at most a line to describe the so called "soviet loss of influence" and the few books about it are incredibly naïve. The most "reliable" "source" is rambo 3, and it speaks for itself...

a communist controlled vietnam and the fall of saigon was our goal the entire time?

>How was Vietnam?

Not a single lecture

My god, american education....
I'm talking about NUMBERS you dumb fuck!

heyjackass.com/

4 months to end the year and already +500 homicides, more than 4 times our worst city numbers tho Buenos Aires has 5 times less population.

And we can blame all our murders on a specific kind of people too.

FUCK, 5 time MORE population

That honestly makes me really sad. The fact that Germans have such a lack of nationalism is pretty terrible because then the people no longer care about what happens to their country.

...

I think you just answered your own question

>i do not know this feeling

you answered your own question america has lost wars before if youve never heard of them they were excused from your education

i also love so many americans i talk to dont even know the countries in ww1 and ww2

you go into denial and pretend it's due to political reasons and loss of the publics support

It was actually years later

It helps if you have had so many, you can't keep track of them all.

Farmers, children and woman of all ages Joe, you pop a cap over their heads and reported to your superior that they're Viet Cong

Ever learn of war of 1812 in school?

Not true. If vietnam could go back and have a choice to do it over they wouldnt. We fucked them up

My medic great uncle died of friendly fire so they could steal his morphine. Vietnam sucks, fuck LBJ too.

We're actually still britain more or less. The queen is still head of state in canada to this very day

> Hardest beach on D-day
> Juno Beach
What a fucking leaf

Hey at least your Jew masters learned their lessons right?

Jesus fuck, which is more ethical, killing 500,000 people, or letting over 2 million die? It's not hard math, the US casualty rate alone was estimated to be over 1 million in an invasion and the Japanese casualties combined fighting and starvation are in the millions as well. Stop acting like it wasn't the only ethical choice

Nazis didn't fight against just Russians

Implying there was an innocent civilian in Japan at the time. The Jap government was arming every man woman and child with anything from suicide grenades to sharp sticks to kill americans

Those two a bombs were the best military choice america ever made.

:^)
How those Jewish Revolts go in the 1st century?

>Japs were literally conceiving of surrendering already.

“Anyone can deal with victory. Only the mighty can bear defeat.”

Your wrong senpai. They were ready to go out in style like japs are known to do

I'm sure you've been drinking the cool air for years even though you were the aggressor the entire time. You feel bad about what happened? It's your fucking fault. The US never invaded the North. You kept the war going, not us, you invaded the south to start the war, not us. Everyone overlooks the fact that you were the ones who kept the war going

>muh vietnam wasn't a real war
so by your example we pretend we won

The Jap government had a parliament of sorts, there was 4 government representatives and 4 military reps. Last vote is reserved for emperor. Emperor traditionally abstains from voting to let people decide. Military branch is fanatical and won't let the majority actually agree to end the war. The war never would have ended had the bomb not forced Hirohito to cast the vote agreeing to surrender because he was drinking the military Kool aid at the time.

The US wasn't occupied by Vietnam after the war. They're not really comparable.

Then by that definition Britain has never lost a war.

You prep up the South m8, it was a dying hush of what French left behind and you armed them, trained them, South Vietnam wasn't South Korea, people don't want Diem to be their leader in 1954, that's why there's Củ Chi tunnel right next to Sài Gòn. We wanted to vote in peace in the first place but no, you had to jumped in with your stupid Domino Theory and spawn a pointless war with butthurt generations to defend it. If US ever go full force on this war its asshole would be vulnerable to the Soviet and the Chinese.

You mean the Vietnam Police Action

6/10

it objectively was though, we won all the major battles even the Tet Offensive but by 1975 South Vietnam could barely afford to pay its troops (which were no longer buffered by American forces) much less fight a war, and when Congress blocked hundreds of millions of dollars of aid to South Vietnam, that cemented the country's downfall. Had the U.S. continued to fund the South Vietnamese military, the country would probably still exist today.

yes, we felled the post-WWII superpower that was vietnam

shame the vietcong beat us into space

>nazis didn't fight russians
american education

You'd be hard pressed to find any mention of the British empire in any history class in Britain, most kids in my class never even knew that England and France had ever been at war.
On the whole, England/Britain has fought so many wars that it's easy to just forget about the ones that were lost.
Pretty much all British history education is: The role of women and children in world war 2, Henry VIII and then maybe the Russian revolution if you study history further, that or Britain post ww2.

Except that's not what he said you stupid leaf.

I wouldn't know what to answer, my friend.

>godzilla killed more soldiers before he died
>godzilla wins
American logic people

I don't know, Brazil was never beaten in war

Do you guys at least learn about your own resistance movements?

Hey mehmet, more vietnamese parents were crying about their dead kids than americans. We won.

Hey Paco, check the Vietnamsese flag
Btfo

Ask the britbongs what losing is like

>I, obviously, don't understand the feeling.

OP's school skipped Vietnam?

speaking of, we were never told we "lost" Vietnam, just that we "pulled out"

Focused more on the PTSD of soldiers than the politics

...

JUST

Mexican-American war retard

1. Not our war.
2. When we pulled out there was a ceasefire.
3. They went right back to our after we left. Much like how they were fighting before we showed up.

Wow, guess they skipped Nam for you too.

Just wanted to say thank you for ousting that bastard Pol Pot.
You guys deserve more appreciation for that IMO.

Made me think that you guys weren't so bad after all.

Eternal yank.
