@TheYag___ Before WWII, German soldiers were trained to goose-step. Soon after the war started, they stopped training new recruits how to because it was a waste of time when they needed combat troops.

@MilkTeaSept Interesting.

@StJohnLateran Indeed, from the Chippewa on down.

When your country holds onto the territory instead of turning it over to the local population, yes, that is what conquest is. Every time that post-Ottoman Turkey has invaded a country, it has been for the purposes of conquest and/or ethnic cleansing.

Cyprus? All Greek Cypriots forced out of the Northern half and a Turkish puppet state was established.

Hatay in Syria was a years long operation to get Western liberals to allow Turkey to seize the province merely because a Turkish minority lived in the area.

Turkey has been trying to repeat its Hatay separatism move for decades with the Turkish minority in Northern Iraq, along with thousands of incursions into Iraqi territory to attack Iraqi Kurdistan. This is also an extension of the longstanding campaign of oppression against the Kurdish population within Turkey.

Turkey provided direct support for Azerbaijan's seizure and ethnic cleansing of the Armenian region of Nagorno-Karabakh.

Frequent threats to invade the Greek Aegean Islands and violate their maritime borders and exclusive economic zones.

Turkey has also recently converted several historic churches into mosques.

So yeah, Turkey is clearly fantasizing about recreating the Ottoman Empire and taking steps to do so.

The difference is that when American went somewhere, it's because they attacked us, or the world collectively agreed that intervention was necessary and America just provided most of the troops to do so.

When Turkey has done it, it was out of desire to conquer new territories and eliminate populations of non-Muslims and non-Turks.

If Turkey were capable of it today, they would attempt to recreate the Ottoman Empire in a heartbeat, reinstitute the jizya, and start enslaving Christian boys for the janissary corps again. America is capable of that, and doesn't do it.

@nishin_8 @pipervoxel Japan's occupation of the Philippines during WWII was pretty brutal. It definitely soured relations for previous generations, but nowadays, I don't think so. I've known and worked alongside a lot of Japanese and Filipinos, and most people got along fine.

[Romanos Iakomos ☦️🏔️ @RomanosOfHawaii]

@jackcashout @EspioKhocarshi @pipervoxel Yeah, such good connections that Turkey invaded Cyprus, Syria, and Iraq, and conducted genocides of Armenians, Greeks, and Assyrians. Good connections with all its neighbors.

@kirishimasu Simple words like this look like really badly spoken English. That's the joke.

[Romanos Iakomos ☦️🏔️ @RomanosOfHawaii]

@Nirosha_31 @Ranger22421 Yeah, her family is South Sudanese/Ethiopian Christian, so it was quite strange.

You won, and in the throes of your ecstasy, you showed that you want people who disagree with you on politics dead.

You showed people who you are, and you regret that they now see you as the monster that you are, not falling for the human mask you wear.

[Justin Briner @justinbriner]

During the heat of an intense political season, I made a comment on social media that I now regret. I apologize and I hope that the temperature can come down for all of us.

This is what most of the evil that people come across on a daily basis looks like.

Vindictive while feigning politeness.

[Romanos Iakomos ☦️🏔️ @RomanosOfHawaii]

@G2esports Hope your org gets destroyed over this.

[Romanos Iakomos ☦️🏔️ @RomanosOfHawaii]

@Fed_man_3 It all traces back to attempts by the French to regain lost influence in the New World by driving diplomatic wedges between the USA and everyone else. They coined the term Latin America and tried to stop Romance speakers from calling us Americans.

[Romanos Iakomos ☦️🏔️ @RomanosOfHawaii]

@girlcloudnine And in some places, the anti-American sentiment results in them using a different word for us - Norteamericanos. They complain about us taking the name of "the whole continent" then label us with the name of a whole continent.

@Modern_Mechanic @Jaquelin582605 @st_noah_of_arc That word didn't even exist until the 1900s. It's just not true.
