It helps that I’m Swedish. Not a thing for me.

If the World Wars went different you might not be Swedish

Bad history knowledge there buddy. Sweden didn’t participate in either World War. Last one wefpught was 1807 against Norway. So literally not my thing.

You think if the other side won they would of left Sweden to themselves. I do not.

Yes they would. As they already were. 100% happy with that.

Agree to disagree brother

Just wondering what they teach you guys. Nazi Germany wasn’t done supervillain trying to Germanize everyone and everything. that seems a silly way to see it.

What?

You said I might not be Swedish. Which seems a weird concept of Germany and weltanschauung.

What was the point of Germany invading other countries?

Mainly the reannexation of the Germanic countries. The rest was a case of defensive invasion to halt attacks on their Western front.

So Adolf felt the German people were short of space that he wanted back so it was a land dispute with a side of extermination of inferior lifeforms.

In a manner of speaking, yes. I mean, really there's many parts to this, but none of it was about making Sweden (or France) a part of Germany and making them all speak German.

Its just my opinion that if Adolf had won he would of kept expanding it seems only logical

And Jews would keep fleeing to new places would Sweden of denied that or would they acknowledge an evil they would need to deal with?

Pretty sure there's a lot of stuff around that where Sweden buried their head in the sand to some of it in the 40s, for sure. Some people, as individuals, did a lot to help with resistance movements and smuggling people out of Nazi Germany. But generally, as a neutral we probably did much less than others would have. It's a difficult thing with hindsight to see what was accurately happening.

Seb let's get back to the beginning. People fought and died for something and that is worthy of at least 2 minutes of your time to acknowledge it.

[Tiggnutz]

A better question is do you love ABBA as much as I do?

People can take 2 minutes out of their day if they value it. It's not on you or the British government or anyone else to tell me I have to. The 2 minutes means nothing to me. Enforced patriotism is just fascism. I think it's nice enough of me that I don't deliberately go out of my way to offend people about their unproductive 2 minutes.

Again we must agree to disagree. No biggie. Where we at on that ABBA thing

Seb is literally Hitler.

Seb is literally Hitler.

Once upon a time. I remember how much Americans were impressed when I discussed terrorist just after 9/11. Went down well. I’ve taken many shot stances over the years. Chalk this one down as another one.

[Tiggnutz]

Seb is literally Hitler.

Absolutely not. His undervalued thoughts of veterans is just his experience

[Tiggnutz]

The thing I'm most proud of today is that I joined the Navy when I was young.

[showa58taro]

I found Three Fugitives on TV, Martin Short, Nick Nolte.

I had forgotten how much fun some of the old films are. Must've been 20 years since I saw this thing.

Veterans? I have absolutely nothing negative to say about veterans. Incredible people who have put their life on the line for so many things that can't be appreciated enough.

I don't think that 2 minutes of mandated time to commemorate a war that was 100 years ago should impact that.

[showa58taro]

Right, that was an epic film. Time to go to bed. Later alligators.

One hopes those two minutes help prevent future wars, as well.

I am a selfish prick. I need that reminder and appreciate knowing my countrymen and neighbors are loyal to the same flag. Those moments where we reflect on how we got there is what keeps us together.
