NVM, DRUNK WELSHY IS ADORABLE WELSHY

yeah, it’s very funny to me 😌✨

speight: these guys lived hell for years for the betterment of the world. doing a movie like this hopefully, hopefully is a small shred, a sliver of a thank you. and a little piece of information that we can pass on to other people to go: don’t forget. don’t forget. it was really hard, and these guys did it so you don’t have to.

I’d like to say that Lewis Nixon is a dilf and Carwood Lipton is a milf

i am going to very respectfully agree and disagree with you.

id like to specifically touch on one thing you said, “why are white bodies given the dignity of an offscreen massacre but POC and Jewish bodies are desecrated, beaten, shown half-dead on screen?” the scene where speirs kills the POW’s is to give into the fact that easy company was not 100% sure that speirs had killed the prisoners. so in that sense, it is realistic.

now, i have not seen the pacific so i wont speak on that. i also completely agree with what you were saying in glorifying the horrors and the war crimes americans committed against the Japanese. its heavily stigmatized and coated in racism. im not disagreeing with anything you said for the pacific- i cannot bring myself to watch the pacific due to the racism portrayed to make it “more realistic”.

in the case of BoB and the holocaust- im gonna have to disagree with you.

im gonna go back to what you said about speirs and killing the POWs- another reason the deaths were probably off camera was because they weren't trying to glorify the deaths of nazis or the killings of nazis. They weren’t trying to make it seem as if it was something to hype up- it was a mass killing.

"so I don’t trust myself to say much, but if you sat there and thought about it for a second, you’d get it. the trauma of the Jewish people and of a Jewish man was used as fodder for the trauma of non-Jewish characters. how is that fair?”

The portrayal of the holocaust in BoB is not to take jewish peoples trauma and make it about non-Jewish people but its to show you how guilty they felt. If you read any of the mens books you’d understand how guilty they felt that they turned blind and ignorant in the case of the nazis and what they did to the jewish people in Europe.

BoB’s scene of the holocaust was not created to show how traumatized members of easy company were, it was to show how guilty they felt. These were people they were fighting for- it was a traumatic incident for everyone in easy company and more so for the jewish members of the company. But everyone felt guilty, everyone felt sad, everyone felt as if they had played a part in this which was turning a blind eye to what was really happening in nazi Germany.

And the US government is fully responsible for never truthfully telling its citizens what the nazis were doing. They waited and waited until the Japanese attacked to give a racially fused reason to join the war. The whole war was fueled by racism but don’t you dare dehumanize the men of easy company for the guilt they carried after witnessing the holocaust. It is not their trauma but they are witnesses, they are front row witnesses to the worst recorded mass genocide in history. Do not dehumanize their reactions and their feelings which they carried for the rest of their lives.

When it comes to the pacifics portrayal of the war- I agree. But I will defend easy company and their impact with the holocaust until I take my last breath. I have studied the holocaust and spent a lot of my time devoted to the history and the holocaust and have met with several victims. The people who liberated them are not only witnesses to the horror but continued to fight antisemitism because they knew how dangerous it was. 

i watch the pacific with a sense of like... idk what it is. but i was born and raised in a country bearing the scars of both american and japanese colonization. and the pacific makes me feel very uncomfortable as a result.

Oh probably like 60 minimum 😚

I’m a gay, woman, who’s mentally ill, and hella political 😚

Do ya’ll think about how many war crimes you’d commit if you were a soldier in WW2 or are you normal?
