Indeed about the strawman argument; sorry about that.
But you are wrong about the collective guilt of the general populace
of the losing countries. An example would be blaming people like
myself who always vote, but haven't voted R/D in decades for the
ultimate failure of the US when it happens. Yes I am a voter. No, I
share no culpability in what the electorate is doing to the country.
You also, bring out the tired saw about German war atrocities. I
can't prove it, but I'm quite sure our side was equally guilty in
quantity and quality of atrocities. The only difference is that we
get to write the history.
