Thanks for clearing that up. I thought SD was all for it.
That's because you just assumed the worst,and probably because of who posted. He just likes to leave you hanging a little, and that lets all the reactionary members flip out. You need to chill out a bit.

You need to check your irony detector.

Ant Wars is crying out to be made into a game!

You didn't say it had to be a good game.

As is the case with many of Stront's posts, you can get the gist of what he is saying but the way he goes about saying it is roundabout and offensive if you don't reread it several times.
I disagree with what he said, not just how he said it.
Quote Posted by Jonesy
Pretty sure he's simply stating that the Allied escalation of the war was necessary to remove Hitler from power, and not that Hitler had justification to invade the entirety of Europe.
Yes, of course, but people seem to take Hitler's actions for granted.
Quote Posted by Jonesy
There's also the side note that wars generally lead to massive leaps in technology as a result from innovation and experimentation in the greatest of all testing ranges.
War does motivate people, but really you don't need a war to make those kinds of innovations.
Quote Posted by Jonesy
It's the same exact thing, he's just putting it in the most ass backwards way. "I won't have the people who gassed millions tell me that the Allied effort to stop said gassings was a bad thing."
Nobody on these boards has gassed anyone, so he can drop that nearly racist approach.
Quote Posted by Jonesy
The spectacle of war can be a great and beautiful thing is what he's getting at, the artillery shells lancing through the air at night, the sheer surreal spectacle of buildings exploding and bombs bursting.
That's not what war is about though. War is about people being ripped to shreds, which most definitively is not beautiful.

GBM is definitely right on this one.
I'm not so sure. Perhaps SD can clarify what he meant.

I agree Z.
But what I wanna know is why Stronts gets to have a personal translator.
I don't have one. :(
