I didn't, of course. But anyone here? Or maybe even been through a war in your country?

I haven't fought, but as there is a drug war in Mexico I've been in several firefights, I don't know if that counts

Because I did not fight in the war! for me, this is unacceptable! But if I lived in the era of world war 2 I would have went to war! And how would you know if you lived in the WW 2 era? |

In what sense 'would you know' ? Just at that time the enemy was all obvious and any normal person wouldn't have to surrender to him! But today the situation is different! Humanity learned the wrong lessons of the past. I hope of course! |

Sounds scary. it is, but the problem is that for 2 or 3 years maybe was kinda controlled but now it's getting worst, just as it was in 2010-2012 at least in my city, since the capture of El Chapo |

What exactly is happening there? the firefights are becoming more frequent, people is starving, of course crime is rising, economy is going down and so on |

But today the situation is different! Humanity learned the wrong lessons of the past. I hope of course! I ment to ask how wold you know at the time who's the real enemy and if the battle is worth fighting anyway.Remember,there was no internet at the time.Movement was more limited to ordinary people.Ways of doing your own factchecking would be scarce,and the propaganda mashine was just as active on all sides as it is today.So in most cases your sights might have been very limited.Same goes for me and many other people. |

At that time we had obvious to all that Germany was the enemy because they illegally entered our territory, opened the bombardment of cities and in the end declared war! A lot of people have been killed or captured and so on! |

But if I lived in the era of world war 2 I would have went to war! yes you most definately would have becuase before both the world wars european nations started nationalistic indoctrination in the schools in order to produce a population willing to fight the war , for the wars were against german industrial domination and not an ideology( given that hitlers ideology was a misinterpretation of neitsche's concept of the ubermensch, which just added another moral justification) and the indoctrination was eventually embedded into the social system for example in england where men who didnt fight the war were shamed by the women trhough this thing called the white feather en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_feather |

A lot of people have been killed or captured and so on! "Entered our teritory" And where is your teritory? See,just entering a teritory still wouldn't make them an enemy in everyone's eyes.For example,in former Yugoslavia,some teritories literally showered them with flowers and ovations.To be specific it was parts of Croatia.Others opposed them.Also,some Baltic countries recieved them very well at first. You can find some intresting examples in just Yugoslavian literature of other nations being either just as fashist as Germans were or at the very least just as infected with anticommunist and antisocialist hysteria. |
