I think it’s a great idea, because comparing First and Second World Wars is kinds stupid. One was war of English and French capital against German capital, the other was war of the People against fascism.

    Totally off base. You need some self crit.

    The war was predominantly Third Reich representing European capital vs USSR.

    80% of the third Reich defeated by the Soviets.

    It was 100% the anti-fascist war

      USSR were fighting fascists but they were not seeking to destroy fascism. It was self defense against fascist not a proactive war of extermination of the fascist ideology.

      And the third reich was not representing “european capital” it was representing a bulk of European industrial capital but by no means was it all of it.

        You could call it the war against communism then, but that wouldn’t create a glory story

        Regarding capital, you just splitting hairs
