This is just one of thousands of examples of immense disrespect. And his cult follows him along through everything.

I’m all seriousness, if you find this appealing, would you not be happier if you just move there? If you have no allegiance to this country, please be respectful, have some dignity, and don’t actively try to ruin it for the rest of us. Stop trying to sabotage this country by actively undermining it.

      I’m Canadian, with a family that’s been in the military and fought in every war as far back as we trace our genealogy on the continent. United Empire Loyalists that separated from a New Jersey revolutionary family to move to Ontario.

      Having said all of that, my comment was only meant to illustrate that even Canada, with a population and a manufacturing base a fraction of the US, bled more per capita. But not according to any American narritives, certainly not according to Trump and his cult.

        Wow, I knew the Russians lost 24 million but I had no idea that China lost 20 million. Thanks for sharing this.

          Yeah, Japan went kinda fucking crazy on them.

          As much as the USA firebombed civilian cities in Japan, Japan went around just exterminating Chinese civilians. Absolute atrocities.

        Can we talk about deaths per capita and military and civilians contributing to war effort per capita for a country that was NOT itself attacked?

        Yes, there were U-Boats attacking merchant marines on the east coast and Japanese balloons flying in on the west. But the societal contribution to a war not in our soil was and is astonishing.
