I don’t understand all the cheerleading for this war from both sides. It was caused by bad politics on both sides, and I don’t feel particularly happy when I read about thousands of people loosing their lives.

Well Nazis getting killed and people liberated from them is good news. And there was one side that was the aggressor and another one that responded to it.

I mean idk if all those people are Nazis though, lots of conscripts in this war.

Same was in wehrmacht, but still not sad for them.

I mean, I feel sorry for people who get propagandised and convinced to die for a fruitless cause but maybe that’s just me.

I get what you mean, so i am rooting for the fascist regime to lose as fast as possible. Also being conscripted does not free from the responsibility for participation in war crimes, as established in Nuremburg "i was following orders" is not sufficient line of defense.

Perhaps. Killing them is still justified. The forced conscription is done by the regime the west installed after the coup.
