Why is WW2 the more discussed and taught war in the US? Why is WW1 kind of pushed aside?
Why is WW2 the more discussed and taught war in the US? Why is WW1 kind of pushed aside?
Because ww2 is a bit more relevant and recent. It shaped the modern world.
BECAUSE YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE 15 GORILLION WHO DIED BY THE EVIL NAZIS
Funnily enough they no longer teach WWII in high schools anymore where I live, because it might be 'too violent' or some shit
The same reason more people have seen Terminator 2 than the first one. T2 is just plain better.
why are you such a faggot?
No goybucks in WW1.
They didn't really teach a lot about WWII outside of the holocaust in my school. I remember more about learning about WWI and reading All Quiet On the Western Front.
They teach a fucking lot about the holocaust. I had that shit shoved down my throat every year.
Same here. Which is kind of strange because in a way WW2 was actually just WW1b
Wonder why that is?
Mostly because it paved the way for the Cold War and space race which gave birth to modern technology. It was because we Americans kicked so much ass in WW2 that we became the worlds super power. Shame that's all rapidly going downhill, thanks Jews
I've been going through a podcast that covers WW1 in detail, and it definitely seems like a misstep to not cover WW1 before WW2.
Europeans have a weird fixation on WW1, don't they?
Isn't that the reason they're kind of mad at EA for making the new Battlefield game about WW1?
>Why is WW1 kind of pushed aside?
Because it didn't bring anything new to the table. The strategy of "scorched earth" has been already perfected during the American Civil War. So all that's left for WW1 to remember are those fucking trenches and the rotten trench foot.
And then came WW2...
It's easier to make a good vs. Bad dichotomy with WW2 than WW1
This. The jews will never ever let anyone ever forget WWII.
The good guys won WW1, the bad guys won WW2.
Here in Australia it is WWI we focus on the most, WWII we go over briefly, with the"muh six gorillion" but after that it's just tossed aside.
Mostly cause WWI was the first real modern combat situation, it was also one of the biggest reasons WWII even happened in the first place.
Trench warfare is lame that's why.
BIplane in WW1, Flying Superfortress in WW2.
I have lost all hope.
Because the US lost to a bunch of lanky rice farmers
...
this is always the correct answer
American living in Canada here, can confirm.
We even had courses dedicated entirely to the Holocaust and other genocides i.e. Armenian and Yugoslavia's ethnic cleansing. That was high school.
In junior high, I remember days where we'd go to our next class and the class wasn't happening because this woman named Ms. Godman used to come in and do Holocaust lessons. It would be just at random, making our English, Biology, or whatever period she came in about the Holocaust while our normal teachers just kind of sat in the back of the room doing paperwork or reading a book. The memory that stuck out the most for me was when she gave us all a paper with questions on it like, "Its okay to not want to be near someone because of their looks." and other shit I don't remember and your only options were to pick 'yes' or 'no'.
At the end, she didn't even take our papers. She just stood in front of the room and said, "This quiz isn't graded. If you answered 'yes' to any of these questions, you're prejudiced." I was like 12/13 at the time, so obviously it made me feel like shit about myself.
Oh, and for reference this was around 2002-2003.
Under-rated post
U.S. entered the war very late.
However it's a shame, because understanding WW1 is crucial to understanding WW2 and the modern world.
I also think it's a more interesting war in general.
Plus Teddy Roosevelt lost a kid there.
Also;
>Listening to a history podcast
>They're talking about Operation Michael
>Quotes a British historian who lists Operation Michael as perhaps the most intense series of battles in human history, rivaled only by actions on the Eastern Front in WW2 and....Iran vs Iraq
I still don't know anything of substance about that war. I wish there was more info for whitey to learn about it.
WW1 had a bigger impact that WW2. WW2 was basically just a continuation and refinement of the first world war.
Kal's a Jew.
It had a culture/continent changing impact.
For everyone including America. Again, it's strange it's not covered in more detail, because WW1 was when the U.S. basically decided they were going to go full Globalist.
Blueprint For Armageddon?
Because the Jews! God's chosen people! Never forget the 6 billion, goyim. The Nazis were evil!!! Hitler was a very bad goy.
WWII is the one they need to lie about and with lies - the moment you stop telling them the truth begins to come out
WWI was the defining conflict that shaped the modern world. It was the beginning of the end of Europe being the center of geopolitics. It mark the begining of the fall of the British, Germany, Russian and French Empires. In their ashes rose the American and Russian hegemonies (USSR).
Because the joos.
