Can't beat a nice relaxing evening, sitting down with a hot drink, and listening to life advice from a man who claims to constantly be withholding the urge to grope women.
One of the reasons France was at such a disadvantage was because WW1 was fought on French soil. French infrastructure, economy and industry was crippled. The German economy was over 3x larger by the end of 1918. Also, French manpower time consisted if 39 million, whereas Germany had 70 million. They couldn't really fight an offensive war sustainably. The Maginot line at the time was their most reasonable solution. They did not have the power of hindsight.
The reason a lot people obsess over whether Germany won the war has little to do with them "craving" for it. It's simply because they lost. The losing cause will always get a lot of attention because its natural to wonder what it would have been like had it been the other way, even if the outcome of that situation is bad.
@@kingkuma4112 Other guy only said 'a lot of', not 'most of'. There's no denying that there are a large number of fashy sympathizers in alternate history circles
I always cry without fail at the end of Lord of the rings: return of the king, especially as I usually watch the three over the course of a week so it feels like you've been on a massive journey. The two scenes in which Aragorn tells the hobbits not to bow and when Frodo says goodbye make me cry like a baby.
The weird part about that baldy scene is that it's just there, irrelevant to what came before, and the chapter ends as if nothing of note had just happened. It's as if a bald writer thought no one would notice if he added his revenge fantasy while copying the original text or something. Also, I guess Samson would be another story that Pyrion would like, since a man endowed with strength because of the quantity of his hair is ultimately killed? I'd recommend reading it just for the part where Delilah tries to learn the secret of his strength: it reads like a Looney Tunes script.
Nikkou Hanshabutsuno yeah it’s a good story. King Solomon was a strange character too. The thing is in term of historical texts, these are the most reliable historical texts, as the only people who could write were scribes. But the reason why God himself is so unjust with his actions is because everyone is full of sin. Jesus has not come yet to wipe the slate because this is in the Old Testament. It’s only after the Old Testament where God’s aggressive side subsides.
Sips is actually closer to the truth than he realizes talking about being "drunk" giving the same effect as Anti-Anxiety medication. Both alcohol and Benzodiazepines (like Valium or Xanax) work on the same relaxing/sedating neurotransmitter in the brain, reducing anxiety and yes, sometimes inducing "inappropriate happiness"
@@nate.draws.things Benzodiazepines specifically are downers, and work on GABA receptors same as alcohol. It's likely pflax was prescribed an SSRI or other antidepressant that works on serotonin, though. That's generally the NHS's first choice if medicating for anxiety.
I mean, I liked Pyrion anyways, but inappropriately happy Pyrion is a real riot too, hahaha, wonderfully hilarious energy today!! Also I dunno exactly why, but I also cracked up after Lewis casually mentioned being the cadets, something about it was just really funny XD XD
I don't think many people are secret Nazis who desire ww2 to have gone the other way. I think the facination is because WW2 is the closest irl example of a Dark Lord story. Giant armies clashing, a mad and unquestionably evil tyrant, the forces of Justice barely holding against the darkness (Britain), betrayal (Hitler, Russia). It's an epic, tragic story.
this podcast is turning into something. lewis turning into captain richeous, finding whatever way he can to feel better than others, and sips becoming a born again christian.
I went to see The Play That Goes Wrong recently, it is from the same group (mischief theatre) that makes The Goes Wrong Show that sips was talking about. Really funny, my cheeks hurt afterwards
the thing about gun laws in america is that someone who is committing a shooting is breaking the law. they aren't going to care about breaking the law to get the gun. Like sips was saying it's a mental health issue.
I play that War of Rights game, same thing when it comes to the desire of what could have been. Some Confederate players are sincerely confederate and seem to be big on the fantasy of what could have been.
I wouldn't say that's a rule for all alt history games though. Plenty of people are just history buffs,. Look at HOI4: AlexTheRambler, ISP, and Pyrion all play it and none of them are nazis.
The whole bear thing made me think about cleric spells in DnD. Like, if a god is giving spells to people, whats to stop them from using said spells in ways the gods would not approve of?
I think what Lewis was saying towards the beginning is an autism thing. A lot of autistic people have this subconscious worry that our thoughts are 'loud', as though other people can look at us and just immediately know what we're thinking because of how acutely we are of the thought. I know that NTs sometimes get this too but getting it a lot to the point where it gives you anxiety is fairly common among aspies.
David and Goliath wasn't a story about an underdog overcoming the odds. It's a story about that was demonstrating just how superhuman David was. No really, if you read those parts of the Bible David is not portrayed as an underdog, he's capable of single-handedly killing thousands of people and can perform amazing feats of strength. THAT is why he fights Goliath, because he can easily do it and win.
SAS does not give people for crying, a small secret from pretty much all special units is that they all cry at some point during the tests or the hardcore training they do...
Germany in world war one: let's fight the whole world. Germany in world war two: same shit again. Have to say I love that mindset even though it took a horrible turn.
The problem with America "getting on your level" is that it would require massive amounts of government overreach. America was designed to be run by a bunch of loosely associated individuals, something that doesn't work under government rule.
I'm with Lewis in saying random inappropriate shit because I just can't think of anything else to say. Plus people don't tend to care about absurd humour I've found.
As an American those protests were mainly centered around things called red flag lawsthat says this person said something mean on the internet we should take away their ability to own a firearm. Which really bothers a lot of people here. Also the term assault weapons is so broad that it covers even tiny pistols.
Yeah, I’m not saying I’m an expert, but hearing Pyrion stretch his limited knowledge of modern firearms and legalities was, for lack of a better word, cringeworthy. “Assault weapons” aren’t a thing, the term stems from a firearm equipped with a selector switch between Full-auto (the function of all machine guns) and semi-auto (the function of most guns owned by the average citizen). Plus 99.9% of all gun sales conducted at a gun store or gun “show” have a required background check via the FBI database.
It was quite entertaining hearing british people talk about american gun laws from their perspective on it. Considering their country is the reason we have it😂
@@TheAngeloBadalamenti the second amendment was made because the british empire wanted to take away the guns from the colonists because they feared a rebellion. Funnily enough, that seizure is what sparked the revolution
Surely part of the “could the nazis have won” thing is propped up by the fact that we want our victory to mean something. We want to believe the “our brave boys won against all odds” narrative which kind of conflicts with the analysis suggesting that an allied victory was basically inevitable. So we keep looking for the critical moment where we actually beat the Nazis rather than just accepting that they more or less beat themselves. Also, the French were reasonably well equipped in WW2, but they were slow to adopt radios and this made their armoured divisions pretty ineffective. Some of their tank designs were barking up the wrong trees as well. They were good on paper, but for the battles they actually ended up fighting in, they weren’t really fit for purpose. The maginot line also worked for the most part. It was meant to save their limited manpower. If Belgium had allowed them to extend it across their border or even agreed to build it on the Belgian-German border, the whole system might have worked.
Just wanted to mention Germany was very close to winning the war and if Hitler's dumb disitions didn't get in the way such as pushing in the winter they could've won. The problem would be sustaining the empire after, that is when what pyrion mentioned would come into effect
Zoroastrianism has very positive messages in its teachings and a lot of the stuff that is explicitly viewed as evil is surprisingly modern for the time of its height.
If I remember correctly, the Bear Attack story is from the Old Testament, and they don't even try to make God seem not like a total asshole. The point of the New Testimate and Jesus as a whole is that it's God learning to not be an asshole.
Separate comment for military corrections: _Death toll in ww1: 2 million for Germany (3.95% of population), 1.4 million for France (4.39% of population). So while it's a slightly larger % of the population, the casualties taken are not the main factor in France's behaviour in WW2. _French army in 1940: 7 million soldiers (120k officers) ; over 3.300 tanks (mix of old and new as best I can tell, though about 1/3 were rather modern assault tanks) 123.000 trucks 1.400 pieces of artillery roughly 3000 planes overall _German army in1940 5.7 million soldiers roughly 3000 tanks (got bad numbers here) Very unprecise overall-numbers on artillery, but almost all I could find is lots of small pieces, very few heavy ones. => the French army, far from being worse, was equivalent and maybe better in numbers and gear. The Germans had mostly lighter equipment, the "Blitzkrieg" to me (so this is opinion, not fact) seems more of a kind of necessity rather than brilliant strategy. It may have been a good improvisation and "make with what you have" kinda deal. The reasons for France's defeat are often discussed and there, emphasis shifts based on who you ask. Im fairly certain the reasons are diverse: _plan to use the defenses of the Maginot-Line, the Wehrmacht went around it. _plan involving divisions with tanks mixed into them vs concentrated tank-usage of "panzer-armies" by the Germans. _few reserves on the french side. _low morale on the french side, 2 decades of "the last war was la "der des ders"", as in, they talked of the "great war" that would never be repeated. The french wanted no new war. _high morale on the german side, with a victory over Poland and diplomatic annexations before that. Also, years of state propaganda, belief they were in a defensive war by the soliders and the general impression after ww1 of having lost it to "betrayals" by the population and democratic politicians, rather than on the battlefield, massively encouraged by MANY extremist movements. _previously mentioned propaganda also fueled a feeling of need for a revenge, after the defeat in ww1 and the disputed treaty of Versailles. Thought this might be interesting, given the conversation about the war...
Also the use of meth to encircle all the french troop in record time. i think they called meth Pervatin and supplied it to the soldiers for blitzkrieg.
@@owenkanaal3457 You assumed wrong. "guerre des guerres" would be correct french, but it's not the expression. "Der des ders" is the historical expression they used. It shortens "La dernière des dernières (guerres)", meaning the last of the last (wars). "haha"?
Can I just point out one more bombing raid could have been the difference between any Londoner being alive today. If Germany hadn't been defeated when they had, how many more would have died? The situation was dire.
Being ganked in an unwarded jungle was too real. When Dota starts to seep into real life that's when you know you've spent to much time jungling and need to get out.
Gun issues here in the States are not complicated. It is a constitutional right to have guns. You guys started it. 😁 Sips was on the right track though.
I think the reason people like to discuss a possible German victory is more because of the whole underdog complex Germany had strategically, and everyone likes to root for an underdog. They're mostly concerned with the military aspect of the conflict rather than the ideological one. It's mostly an admiration for the tactics employed and the technology that was birthed during the war, and only a small amount of people are actual neo-nazis. There are also those that claim that a decent portion of the German army was fighting for Germany rather than the Nazi party. Still that's all up for debate.
My mum gets "Kentucky Fried Chicken" wrong by swapping the t and F round. Inappropriate? Only if you listen to what you thought was there, not what THEY thought was there. However, racists will hide behind "IT WAS JUST A JOOOOKE!!", so if you meant it as one, say so, but don't get upset when people don't take your word for it, blame those who use that excuse in a lie. They ruined it for you.
It should be noted that the story is part of the old testament(as in before Jesus), hence "everyone is a sinner" because Jesus hadn't died for our sins at that point.
In Canada our firearm laws are pretty good. We do have an issue with illegal firearms from America but for the most part, legal firearm owners are not a problem.
To be fair Pyrion Hitler (And I am NOT in anyway claiming Hitler was a genius: Read his book. Or don’t entirely fair not to. Man was crazy before the whole Aryan ranting) wasn’t completely tactically inept as many of his surviving generals claimed. Hell, most of them made all those blunders on the eastern front and managed to push it on a post mortem Hitler’s plate to save face and partly out of what you and the lads were saying on the podcast: A strange nostalgia/postwar/alternate historical sentiment that the krauts and jerries could win the war, fueled by surviving soldiery and commanders thinking they could have pulled it off, had it not been for Hitler. Had it not been for Hitler, the whole war might not have happened in the first place!

Flax talking about gun politics and saying every wrong thing possible is funny.
Hes a walking headline sometimes.
Yessss
My mum gets "Kentucky Fried Chicken" wrong by swapping the t and F round. Inappropriate? Only if you listen to what you thought was there, not what THEY thought was there.
However, racists will hide behind "IT WAS JUST A JOOOOKE!!", so if you meant it as one, say so, but don't get upset when people don't take your word for it, blame those who use that excuse in a lie. They ruined it for you.

I always wonder whether sips and pflax have their own WhatsApp group which they talk to each other about Lewis midrecording
It should be noted that the story is part of the old testament(as in before Jesus), hence "everyone is a sinner" because Jesus hadn't died for our sins at that point.
Today on Triforce! the guys make fun of Wehraboos while spreading Wehraboo beliefs
In Canada our firearm laws are pretty good. We do have an issue with illegal firearms from America but for the most part, legal firearm owners are not a problem.

To be fair Pyrion Hitler (And I am NOT in anyway claiming Hitler was a genius: Read his book. Or don’t entirely fair not to. Man was crazy before the whole Aryan ranting) wasn’t completely tactically inept as many of his surviving generals claimed. Hell, most of them made all those blunders on the eastern front and managed to push it on a post mortem Hitler’s plate to save face and partly out of what you and the lads were saying on the podcast: A strange nostalgia/postwar/alternate historical sentiment that the krauts and jerries could win the war, fueled by surviving soldiery and commanders thinking they could have pulled it off, had it not been for Hitler. Had it not been for Hitler, the whole war might not have happened in the first place!
I love triforce and when i really get into it ill binge it, but the huge gaps just drain my interest and i have to build it up again
