If someone is running from a burning building, I don’t feel sending them back inside the building while you decide what if anything you want to do is a well planned strategy.
My point isn’t “take the Jews, problem solved” my point is “here’s one strategy off the top of my head that would’ve helped a lot. If I can think of one easy solution so effortlessly then we clearly put no effort into fixing the problem without a war. No effort at all”
If you want full details of how exactly we could’ve prevented war listed out by experts… Google it. Like I said at the beginning. The info is out there. Why should I copy and paste it for you. Go read it yourself.
I mean… That is a theory. I don’t like it but it’s still better than war. Arguably the cold war and proxy wars prevented a major war…
I dont think of it as a perfect win obviously because of the proxy wars like Vietnam and Korea. Those wars specifically gave me a bucket full of nice medals but cost me every single one of my uncles. There were other proxy wars though.
Anyway my point is 2 fold.
Arguably that strategy prevented a much bloodier war between Russia and the US but there were still better ways to handle that without any war.
And 2) if you ignore the proxy wars the “cold war” approach is one way to avoid war, I guess. The government equivalent of the obnoxious drunk guy flexing his muscles and saying “you don’t want none of this bro”… It’s better than a war but not my favorite strategy. Although I might not like that approach it did prevent a war, it was better than a war… So… Good job?
Again the proxy wars ruin that but they were unnecessary and didn’t change much for the US or Russia. Obviously they did a lot of damage to the countries we fought in. My point is the cold war approach didn’t need that to prevent the war. It actually pushed us closer.
I’m just saying the “I’ve got a bigger gun” diplomacy… Well it’s definitely a strategy that is better than war…
I don’t believe in wars (don’t message me, yes there was a way to end your specific example thru diplomacy. Look it up on google)
Anyway I always go with “I admire you’re bravery” because that doesn’t go against my beliefs but still shows respect for what they had to do.
It’s true, just search “should we have fought the Axis” and you’ll find Aeao’s beliefs.
We could’ve stopped the Nazis by… You know… Allowing Jewish people to move to America…
But bombs are cool too I guess. If you only want to be slightly less racist than Nazis and are fine with a lot of unnecessary death.
aeao taking the controversial “appeasement didn’t go far ENOUGH” stance

I’m not here to hold your hand.
you can just say you’re uninformed that’s allowed
i need to learn how to say ‘you’re’ distinctly from ‘your’
(Yes I’m being an idiot, I agree with you)
