THIS IS WHAT PUTIN WANTS TO RESURRECT
Fuck me, that’s horrendous.
I’m not really a WW2 buff beyond the key turning points of the war, but can someone point me in the direction of some good starting points for this sort of purge-style activity - as in not “Google WW2 hurrr”?
I feel it’s something I really should know about but I don’t.
Absolute legend, thank you. I’ll check them out.
Wiki is unacceptable as an academic source, but indispensable as a jumping-off point for casual investigation of a subject. Especially if the article links to primary sources!
Something I personally can suggest is(assuming you live in Europe) starting research about how your city was affected by WW2. I learned quite a lot about WW2 and the General time just by that. Great for this is your local Archive. They also should have primary sources.
Fantastic idea, thank you. I work out of some old airfields from time to time so no doubt they’ll be a great source of information. Cheers for the advice.
I always make sure to bring up the - criminally under discussed - genocide of the Romani (often referred to as removed) people when people are discussing the Nazi’s genocides.
Approximately half of the entire Romani population of Europe were executed.
It’s pretty in depth given the scale and number of episodes, but the WWII YouTube channel has a series called War Against Humanity: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsIk0qF0R1j4cwI-ZuDoBLxVEV3egWKoM&si=DEDPzd3g9_Paql0h
I was also going to post them, they are invaluable.
This kind of content in this sub just rubs me the wrong way. Not the biggest fan of the ‘x’ porn naming convention, but here it just feels weird.
Not the biggest fan of the sub’s name myself.
