What years do American WW2 monuments usually have on them?

.....

Don't hand wave. American companies actively assisted genocide. The government was ok with that. Then they took in nazi scientists and Judi them from prosecution. Yes, that happened in the past. I've not said modern Americans are evil because of this; I don't think that and I'm not sure how you could misunderstand me so badly as to think so (except that I know how jingoistic you are; any criticism if your great country is a persona attack). But each and every one of you has benefitted from that.

If I can't dredge up shitty American conduct from the 40s (America as a whole viewed WW2 as a European War, until Pearl Harbour and now we'll get involved; which is kinda fucked to begin with, but pretty small change), why can you dredge up French history from the 40s to make fun of? Hypocrisy much?

No one here is making Pearl Harbour or 9/11 jokes. Whys
that? Mass killing is funny right? You'd think that given the American revolution and all that you'd have some compassion. Guess it's not funny when it happens to you.

[zemanjaski]

"Other people do the wrong thing too" isn't an argument.

1. We're making jokes while you're serious - that's a difference.
2. Our jokes are about the cowardly French stereotype, not mass genocide - that's different too.
3. If you want to make a Revolutionary war joke... more
power to you.

Z, post about Magic brews. I finished college and don't want to read debates on history anymore. What's CFB testing?!

[Dechs Kaison]

How about "it's just funny" as an argument?

They're jokes. We're not sitting here condemning French society. We're making jokes. You want to joke about Pearl Harbor, the American Revolution or 9/11? That's fine. I hope they're funny.

But you're the one bringing serious criticisms here. We were having fun. You got all pissy.

[zemanjaski]

1. Doesn't make any sense
2. You're still making light of a country being invaded and everything that entails
3. Why not the others though? They're nothing compared to a world war. Why so sensitive?

This is the correct way to respond.

1. No, it doesn't make sense. You're saying that accusing modern day Americans of somehow being responsible for what some businesses did 75+ years ago = making a joke about a French stereotype. So, yeah... that doesn't make any sense.

2. What the fuck does all that entail? There's no deeper meaning here - just jokes that you didn't like and decided to have a bitch fit over.

3. Sure, joke about the others. Whatever. You're the one who tried to throw the American Revolution in my face like that's some sort of a sore topic...

I find Asuka a lot more attractive than Hendricks. I think we've arrived at the core of my many problems.

Whatever lends buoyancy to your proverbial vessel. Different flavors

[NerdBoyWonder]

What number of Z did we roll? Don't think this one is on a d6.

[Kaitscralt]

if 9/11 had happened in France there would have been no deaths because the Eiffel Tower would have run away

[Kaitscralt]

and the American monument would say 9/10 never forget

[zemanjaski]

1. That's not what I did at all.
2. You've got to be fucking kidding me.
3. That's not what I did at all.

Fuck you man. If you're grip on reality is that disingenuous I have nothing more to say to you.

it's cause she's American, isn't it?

you're a fucked up furry weeaboo, but that can all be forgiven if you win a big magic tournament

[Helios]

Why are daddy and daddy fighting?

[Khaospawn]

Governments are corrupt. War is terrible and atrocious. The modern banking system is the root of all evil.

And stereotypes are funny.

Did I miss anything?

Why are daddy and daddy fighting?

Dammit, Helios, it's all your fault!

[Purp]

Blame LP.

[Kaitscralt]

Zem, I've said it before but I guess I need to say it again

You're not European, you're Australian. Australia is America light. The stats don't lie.

Don't mask your self-hate and shame in your country under a thinly-veiled anti-America persona.

What's the difference between a cow and 9/11?
Americans can't milk a cow for 13 years.

It's mostly the attitude

How big a tournament? For my level of depravity I imagine it would need to be an Invitational?

1. That's exactly what you did.
-French jokes
zem: Americans making WWII jokes is a disgrace
-Why?
zem: Because American businesses funded Nazi death camps

2. We were fucking kidding - that's all. Be less of a bitch.

3. Once again, that's exactly what you did:
"You'd think that given the American revolution and all that you'd have some compassion. Guess it's not funny when it happens to you."

One of us is certainly out of touch with reality, but it's not me.

That's not even funny.

[redthirst]

I have nothing more to say to you.

Please keep that in mind next time you decide to start menstrating all over the forums over a joke that has literally nothing to do with you.

[Kaitscralt]

joke about cow-tipping

[Helios]

Why are daddy and daddy fighting?

Dammit, Helios, it's all your fault!

Fuck i knew it

[Khaospawn]

That's not even funny.

How was it not?

Two cows are standing in a field. One turns to the other and says, "What do think of this 'mad cow disease'? Does it worry you?" The other cow replies, "Why should I be worried? I'm a chicken."

We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender!

Hey, and what French people can say about war?
I know it's geographically Europe, but please don't bring up Allo Allo experiences to the table.

Saying 'France/UK know something about 2nd world war" is such a fucking disgrace in my country. We had an Union with France signed at 1921 and with UK at 1939 (before war started). 11 days after invasion, both France and UK decided to not help Poland because fuck that, that's not their issue. France even if could win (with huge advantage over Germany) just crossed around 5km's of their borderline and went back as ... as why, you ask?
I don't know the answer. But all I know is - don't bring France to the 2nd World War discussion unless you want to spit onto something.

TLDR: Zem, silence.

[Kaitscralt]

so what's the deal with death camps
