I thought it was obvious. Hey, someone downvoted me for it so they must have understood (that, or they reflexively downvote anything they don't understand).
If you aren't adding to the discussion (e.g., by being obtuse) that's reason enough for a downvote. And underneath it all you're quite brashly making a false equivalence.
You conflated WW1 and WW2 and yet give me lectures on style and judge whether the equivalence is false or not? There's a word for that. I don't think I am the one being brash here.
Now you’re strawmanning. Once I knew the argument you were making (which honestly wasn’t clear to me), the overall critique was correct and justifiable, but for one minor error (namely, Germany being in rubble after WW1). Just so you know, I didn’t downvote you.
