Didn't WWI end with a negotiation, hence the potency of the "stab in the back" narrative which helped propel Hitler to power? WW2 ended with the unconditional surrender of both Germany and Japan, the allies having learnt from their mistake.

KS_1968 @karenroberts.bsky.social

No. It ended mainly because the Germans surrendered after the US came into the war& the allies walloped the Germans during 1918. There was no negotiation except among the allies. The Germans had to accept the terms. The myth of the stab in the back was that the Germans had a choice about any of it.

The opposite is happening in the US now, of course - the fascists have learnt from their failures to seize the levers of authoritarian control fully during 2017-21, while the interim 4 years saw the rest of the country complacent about the nature of the threat because they failed first time round.

It did, though the German army was collapsing on the Western Front, and the German Empire itself collapsed before the armistice on November 11th 1918. The Dolchstosslegende in some respects resembles the Lost Cause of the South, which still has potency some 160 years later (hence VP Vance).

The Unconditional Surrender was a policy announced by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt at the 1943 Casablanca Conference, demanding the complete, total military defeat of the Axis powers (Germany, Italy, and Japan) without any negotiation. But ok couch fucker.

Even the WWI armistice, which should’ve been negotiated cuz it was an armistice & not a surrender by one side, was a ‘Take-it-or-leave-it’ demand by the Allies to Germany. The terms were so harsh, it led to WWII by the resentful Hitler German military who felt that they hadn’t been defeated in WWI……

The Japanese, who started WW2 in 1937, famously held out in caves and refused to surrender on countless pacific battlefields. They only stopped fighting when confronted with insurmountable scientific advancement (face-saving development gave them an 'out'). There was no negotiation whatsoever.

WWII didn’t end with a “negotiation”, but with the surrenders of Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan. I guess the interviewer didn’t correct him, whether out of personal ignorance and indifference, or out of her professional ethic of enforced historical amnesia (those two things being complementary).

Unconditional surrender. Hitler killed himself in a bunker, and Mussolini was hung in the town square - with his hanging corpse then being beaten by the Italian people that he brutally ruled over. JD Vance is a doughy, ignorant chode.

The defeat came way, way earlier. When the numbers of the losses brought the US congress to withhold any further funding. Then the White House withdrew all combat troops and left the South Vietnamese in their fight alone. That was two years before the embassy event.

Italy agreed to a negotiated & conditional surrender, but that didn't end the war there. Germany immediately seized much of Italy & resisted Allied advances. As in Germany & Japan, it was the defeat of Axis forces & their unconditional surrender that ended the war in Italy, not any negotiations.

Not actually. Mussolini was ousted in a coup in 1943, the military coup leader surrendered to the allies, the Germans seized most of Italy & set up a rival government that I think was nominally led by Mussolini. Piñata time came in 1945, I think shortly after German forces in Italy surrendered.

No it didn’t in 1918. There was an Armistice and then Versailles in 1919 which was a peace treaty. Specifically unconditional surrender was demanded to avoid that catastrophe. Germany was occupied as surrendered in 1945.

paul lukasiak @paul-lukasiak.bsky.social

technically, though it was a negotiated surrender -- the Germans negotiated an "unconditional surrender" that would allow them to surrender to Western Allies, because Eisenhower threatened to force the German Army to surrender to Russia otherwise.

except, in fact, Eisenhower threatened to shut off the Western Front, which would have forced the remaining German forces to surrender to the Russians.
