Proportionally?

Germany lost about 6 million people out of a population of 70 million, so something to the tune of 8.5% of the population over the course of six years.

In the current Gaza campaign, we’re coming up on 20,000 out of a population of 2 million, so something to the tune of 1% over the course of three months. Extended to the six years of WW2, that would be 41% of the population.

Earth?

They have about half that currently in the reserves.

It’ll be painful for Ukraine, but so will the war dragging on. The sooner Ukraine can end it, the better for Ukraine.

It’s insane to think the GOP used to only be about grabbing money and hurting queer people. Those days seem almost quaint.

Stable and oppressive are not mutually exclusive.

First, you said it was not oppressive, but stable, but nice try.

Second, they very much are. Oppression does not create a stable society, it merely bottles up tensions. But I wouldn’t expect a tankie fuck who gets hard over the deaths of minorities to understand that.

But you have fun jerking off to a million dead Iraqis.

Wanna remind me how many Iraqis Saddam’s regime killed?

God, imagine being so intellectually and morally bankrupt that you simp for Saddam’s Iraq. That’s some peak brainrot. I would say tankies never cease to amaze, but honestly, I’m not even a little surprised.

It’s doubtful.

Russia is their role-model now, and their master, not their enemy. They’re pretty open about it.

Sadly, much more complex than religion. But yes, it’s terrible how much potential has been wasted and how many lives ruined.

Funny how it can always get worse. Not ha-ha funny, though.

The heroic Taliban, fighting the pedo rapists, lmao

America setting up tonnes of military bases, killing the government and then replacing and dictating the entire governance with their own peons means that it colonized Afghanistan, it didn’t just influence it.

lmao

Yes, I am definitely sure it was all Amerikkka’s fault, Afghanistan definitely hasn’t always been a dirt poor country for the past 200 years and also definitely didn’t spent most of the 70s and all of the 80s and 90s locked in brutal civil wars, and definitely has a united national culture that made running a functional national government easy.

Also I love the part where we were colonizing Afghanistan and dictating their internal policies. God, it’s so great that we thought Islam was so amazing that we made it a crime to apostatize from it. Wait, or are we supposed to be the Christian Crusaders imposing our faith on Muslim countries? I can never keep all the things we’re accused of doing straight.

If you think the economic situation in Afghanistan is due to the US… well, that’s about the understanding of Afghanistan’s historical and present circumstances I expect from someone who treats international politics like a religion and says “Well, I don’t agree with the Taliban closing schools for women and ‘other things’, BUT… have you considered, America bad?”

lmao

Imagine simping for the Taliban because international politics is a religion to you, and America is the Great Satan.

Afghanistan simply did not have the national consciousness necessary for Afghans to come together in opposition to the Taliban, which was united on ideological/religious grounds.

Okay, just let me…

"I asked one Taliban brother, what do I feed my children if I don’t earn? He said give them poison but don’t come outside your home," she says. “Two times the Taliban government gave me some money, but it is nowhere close to enough.”

Also, if it’s a parallel to Earth, I guess we’re supposed to assume that the Christian underclass eventually takes over and are just as bad as the formerly pagan Romans they added into their fold.

Considerably worse, really.
