A lot of people's ideas of what happened during WW2 is nazi propaganda that Americans whole-heartedly adopted. The russians are just a horde of conscripts that die en-masse, haha the Polish were so dumb to use cavalry against german tanks, the French capitulated on a whim because they're cowards.

Tekopo posted:The equivalent discussion is about clipping counters and if you should do it with a corner rounder or just use a nail clipper and if the clip should be squared or rounded and lots of allegories to circumcision What if you just punch the chits out of the cardboard and leave the trailing piece? Will I offend some fatbeard brownshirt if I show up to game night with fuzzy Axis and Allies territory markers?
