This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I think a major part of getting "beat" is they fought the USSR in the east and simultaneously the USA and UK in the west. I mean the war against Stalin wasn't going super smoothy. But it went on since 1941 already. And it really went south for the nazis when the USA joined WW2.

Outside of industry the US didn’t impact much

The Western Front was going to be won without them due to German troop and supply limitations

The US war effort was the Pacific and preventing the USSR from taking all of Germany (Allies made it in time)

Things would have gone smoother for them if the British didn't slow them down with Yugoslavia.

Good chance they would have captured Moscow and Stalin.
