    Yep the bomb was just more efficient and risked less lives to wipe out 80,000 people

    WW2 was brutal

    Better 80k of theirs than 1 of ours.

    War is hell.
    That's last century thinking

    We deserve to die

    I'm not going to be able to confidently vote in this poll until I research the quality/quantity of victory coitus for each battle.

    Yorktown - 1781
    Yorktown was the end of the brits - we Corn-holed-wallis and that was the end. The best is always the last - the only one that really counts.



    And the French have been making us pay since - Rochambeau influencing Washington, Lafayette, de Grasse (this was before he got into space shit) on water. The brits didn't stand a chance.

    as far as the civil war and WWI, WW2, Korea, Vietnam, Spanish American, all the Middle East wars - jeez have we been in enough? - we would just be more divided than we are having won most of them. I think if we were invaded eventually all the ferners would just give up and leave.

    What if I told you our casualties taking the Japanese home islands would have far exceeded 80k?

    Plus obviously a ton of Japanese dead as well, like way more than 80k depending on how strong the civilian population was urged to resist by their god-emperor.

    Just the white guys.

    Not like the windtalkers and soldiers whose parents are in ICE detention centers internment camps.
