Disagree, unless you mean that every modern generation should prepare to be CONVINCED/TOLD that what they’re going through is the worst. I think in current times, people are predispositioned to think that their struggle is the end-all-be-all. Of course, I’m generalizing, but there does seem to be a lack of perspective in younger/ish people today. Imagine if you posted a cool tik tok and then went through a world war, a pandemic, and an economic depression! You’d make literally NO money on that tik tok. Think about all that.

[@MrAlforable]

My great grandpa told my mom the story of the probably unluckiest guy in history. His name was Dmitri (complicated surname, didn't memorize it) who lived in a place near Moscow, born in 1897. He served in first world war when he was 17, at 1917 came back home to face the civil war. He survived the spanish flu, worked as army officer, almost got killed in Stalin's great purge. Survived Winter war, fought in Stalingrad, fought through the Soviet attack on Germany (got wounded at Seelow, shot in stomach), almost died from sepsa, survived it. And on top of it all in 1949 ended up in Gulag, after 10 years came back home and died peacefully. Talk about Chuck Norris, this guy is a fuckin hard-ass legend.

[@zharakov]

Now that's a true survivor, most of us feel to weak or "tired" going over our daily work and stuff but this guy was a true fighter who fought till the end..

But this guy was like holy shit, imagine his PTSD levels, how much death did he see, and on top of all that, Stalin's regime sends him in Gulag, a respectful warrior. I'm determined to my duty too, but if I was him, I'd say like: nah man fuck this shit

Then, his brother was caught in a trench when a chlorine gas attack flooded it all, and he and everyone else coughed their lungs out and died.

[@Junokaii]

Along with The Russian Revolution and subsequent interventions by countries in Western Europe (White Army/Britain/France/USA vs Red Army/Communists), atrocities done by Stalin, etc. Russia's been through a lot as a nation, even in the centuries prior such as being ruled by the Mongols. Russia has proven what it takes to be a nation and the striving of surviving as a nation.

[@andyhello23]

Remember it was the british who brought the idea, of the concentration camp to russians.

[@benbutton4193]

Russia was a disaster before the revolution. People were starving and dying by the millions while the Czars sat in a fucking castle with food. They were liberated and prosperous because of it. If it wasn't for the Soviets, Nazi Germany might still exist. They played the most crucial role in victory. The Gulag was for class traitors. It consisted of farmers that refused to help feed the nation. These farmers were price gouging and when told they must sell at reasonable prices, they refused, hid crops for themselves and burned the rest. Then of course, the bourgeoise was sent to gulag or killed because they were part of the exploitation that led to mass starvation and famine. People often look at the USSR without understanding the full picture and circumstances that lead towards the "horrific" events that is taught in the West. People don't have revolutions because everything is peachy. A big reason Capitalism is so successful is due largely in part to welfare. Keep the poor fed and housed and you keep them content with their mediocre existance. Take away their food, and see how long it takes before they start killing the rich. You ever notice they don't teach you the words of Communist leaders in school? They don't teach the revolutionary theory or the ideology of the Communist country, they only show you pictures of terrible things that was caused by even worse things. Everyone shits on Castro as well, but fail to see what Batista was doing that lead to his overthrow. For someone who is supposedly satan reborn,it is interesting that the entire country gathered in the masses and cried when his death was announced.

As gruesome as it was to watch, it gives us contrast, a lesson in history, and an appreciation how much better our lives are. Yes, we have our struggles, conflicts and diseases, but we are trending in a direction that maybe in 100-300 years we will have evolved into a species that such extreme hate is replaced with empathy, compassion, mutual understanding, and love. A utopian world- probably not, as there will always be new challenges, and unexpected events. We must also ask this question: What is the purpose of the Earth, and what is humanity's purpose? I have a pretty good idea of what that is, but it's best we each discover that on our own, as it makes it far more interesting.

Sausymayo because if you would look at the deaths, Europe has way more deaths than asia, second he was talking about ww1 and ww2 so the asian theatre is just a small part of that.

[@arturo0727]

Laurens Smit That is not true at all.

[@karlsmith6690]

Small part? Had the Allies neglected fighting the Empire of Japan, they would have had to deal with them in Australia, India, Southeast Asia and the Middle East, where they could do a joint-operation with Nazi Germany and isolate the Soviet Union. Sealing the fate of World War 2 a decisive Axis victory.

[@EnlightenedBro105]

I don't think over 33,000,000 deaths is small

[@paxsinica5202]

Just look at WW2 casualties, and look at the loss of life in the Asian nations, especially China. The Asian theatre was not small at all as many people think.

Which tragic event was he related to?

[@jackl1697]

@@Mozes316 He fought later on in WW1, I'm not sure where. He died in France. The only thing I remember about anything to do with him is how my grandpa still sometimes talks about how he wrote letters to his father, and how they'd come back redacted and cut up. We also still have a silver star and a rifle, although we later discovered neither was his. The silver star was his best friends who didnt have a family, and the rifle is actually an enfield hunting rifle a friend of his bought after the war. All the same, everyone who knew any of them say the same thing: this war was hell on earth.
