i think the scales have tipped on some illusions about NATO technology & doctrine but to blow this up to “no clothes” veers into underestimation. NATO, for the deficiencies still has a shittload of military equipment and personnel

are we the baddies when the only domestic manufacturing we do is cancer tank shells & child murder bombs?
GOOD post
hog on hog violence, you love to see it!
you probably know this but for the sake of clarity, the atomic bombs were dropped on August 6th, and a few days later on the 9th. Soviets invaded on the 7th. their plans for Hokkaido were for the 24th, and cancelled by the surrender.
post war assessments make clear that soviets’ comprehensive destruction of the Kwantung army was perceived by parts of the japanese and us governments as sufficient on its own to force the surrender, but your comment sort of reads like the americans dropped the bombs after the soviet’s success to force the japanese to surrender to them instead, which is chronologically unsound.
TV’s were already a popular concept before WW2 in the US
“In 1945, there were probably fewer than 10,000 sets in the country. This figure soared to about 6 million in 1950, and to almost 60 million by 1960” -“Television.” The World Book Encyclopedia. even that 6 million is hardly a “staple” in a country of 151 million. you gotta remember that for how enormous the amount of film there is pre-war, it was all for movie theaters, not home broadcast
true that 90% in 1950 was probably padded
soldiers are blockheaded idiots, more at 11. imagine fetishizing your own agonizing death getting shredded or drowning on some awful beach fighting your countrymen. couldn’t be me.
all power to the peaceful reunification of China
i’m a partisan of the view these symbols are embellished Tamga adopted by the rurikids, though i’m sure modern nationalists would dispute their national symbol being from khazar cultural practice
disgusting revisionism
