    You’re 10-ply bud. The only person showing a gross lack of humility here is you. I’d go into depth on why what you said is stupid and is bad history, but smart words are wasted on deaf ears. I can tell you all the historical facts backed by primary sources all day, but I can’t teach critical thinking. That lack is critical thinking is what got you here. But hey, go ahead and keep on using bigger words to shield against that fragile, threatened, intellect of yours. I’m sure it will make us agree with you more instead of actually citing sources or doing any attempt to explain why you think what you said made any sense. So far you argument is “Field Marshal Zhukov said otherwise once” and your source is “trust me”, and hiding behind the opinions of unnamed peoples who are more accredited than me (therefore default right-er-er than me!!), along with copious, pitiful, abrasive ad hominen attacks (I know big words too!!).

    Real talk. I don’t know what you do for a living, but I recommend you stay in your lane and I’ll stay in mine. The electrician shouldn’t tell a plumber how to bend pipes. Whatever brainrot is making you sanctify a long dead Field Marshal of the USSR, one responsible for the extremely brutality on the civilians of East Germany and especially Berlin, you should do some serious introspection as to why. You glorifying this man shows you are severely detached from reality, let alone equipped to debate history.

    Oh, and I’m under no pretense to be polite or humble when talking about history here. This isn’t a history conference, its an anonymous forum. I can be as crass or rude as I want here. Frankly, I should’ve just told you to pound sand instead of writing all this out. Do me a favour, and trust me when I say that what you said and think is stupid as hell. Your homework is to use the boundless expanse of the educational internet to figure out why. I say this with sass yet genuine concern; educate yourself better. Your mind deserves better.

      You need to calm down. You also need to accept that you’re wrong instead of pontificating at length, as if I asked for you to shit out failed revisionism. You’re making me retroactively support teachers beating their students because you clearly needed the only kind of correction you’re capable of understanding, given your myopic view of history.

        You’ve done nothing to try to convince me that I am incorrect. You’ve not engaged with my original argument with any logical reasoning or facts. You haven’t even tried. All you’ve done is degrade my degrees and try to bully me out of my opinion like a little school child. In fact, I am beginning to suspect I really am speaking to a child – even wishing that you could physically smack me instead when losing an argument.

        Nothing I said is revisionism but solid fact. It is simply making new conclusions on new emerging research and historical sources – something that you have no idea about because you’re not a historian. Historians disagree all the time on the same historical events. You’d know this if you ever read more than one book on the same historical topic instead of taking the first one you read as gospel.

        I stand by what I originally said. You are not equipped to debate history.

          Stopped reading right there. Are you imitating Ben Shapiro on purpose, or are you ignoring what actually happened and then trotting that phrase out because it’s how your mind actually works? I’m sure the degree mill you went to loved it either way.
