> We beat the nazis together

If you by "we" mean Britain, the United States, and Russia. And by "we" mean the people living 2 generations earlier, then I agree with your statement.

As a side note, people who were 18 in 1940, would be 103 today. So most people who fought in the second world war have unfortunately passed away.

I personally would never say "We beat the nazis together". The only thing I did was benefit from the war that generations before me have won.

You’re forgetting Canada. You’re also glossing over the fact that despite losing to the nazis, the occupied countries didn’t exactly just roll over when they got attacked. And during occupation there were resistance movements in those countries too. So there’s definitely a “we” here.

And while of course most of those people are dead now, they were all part of cultures that still hold many of the same norms and values as they do today.

This comment is either bad taste trolling or simply insulting to anyone outside these theee countries that gave their lives to fight sgainst nazis… in Germany too there were people fighting the nazis, just as an example.

I'm from Brazil. My grandfather, along with 25 THOUSAND other Brazilians, went to fight in WW2. He saw a best friend die gruesomely next to him, and came back to traumas that affected him, my father and even me to some extent.
