Dresden Rule
Dresden Rule
Could use some more of the greatest generation attitude these days.
11The Dresden bombing is overhyped, by the soviets(as proof of how "evil" the West is) and far right nowadays.

38mins in, it compares the percentages of cities destroyed in Europe in comparison to japanese cities. So if we are talking about suffering and destruction caused by bombing, Japan got wrecked a lot more. And thats without even counting the nuclear bombs btw.
7just fyi: I'm well aware that the bombings hit many civillian targets and not actually advocating for the validity of those. It's mostly a shitpost and dunk on hitlerite fascists, seeing how they destroyed virtually all of eastern Europe

Dresden… is not the example you want, it's really not. maybe don't hold up one of the worst warcrimes the allies did as if it hurt the Nazis (it did not)
6"If the Germans want total war, that's what they will get"
6Please don't bomb my city. I live here
4Bombing cities full of civilians, with lots of architectural landmarks and little to no military value, to own the Nazis.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for not holding back against Nazis. I'm always saying that we're due for Barbara Pit pt. 2, but this one seems like a cut off your nose to spite your face situation. We all lost when Dresden was almost leveled to the ground, not just Germany.
