History is written by the winners.

All the Nazis has to do to win was basically not fight a two-front war.

Could have signed a non-aggression pact with the US and have focused 100% of their forces on the eastern front and now the whole of Europe would be speaking German, and there would be no more Russia to speak of.

By that standard (and every other) they had zero chance of winning. WWII was Always going to be a two front war, Churchill was never going to surrender and it's a foregone conclusion that Stalin was only buying time with Molotov-Ribbentrop for his own attack

You just ignored the main point of my post - the non-aggression pact with the US. Congratulations.

Yes, if the US is involved, then Germany loses.

If the US was not involved, de facto there are no allies to speak of. Not like the UK could have done d-day on its own.

With all troops mobilized on the Eastern front and in Africa, and without the US propping the USSR up, Germany wins.

And down the line, either the UK capitulates or a ceasefire is signed.

But anyway, it's a pointless exercise, since that's not the way things went.

I just dislike the modern "Germany would have lost anyway", because they remind me of "Well, Hitler will never be in power" takes. They're just emotional takes based on likes/dislikes.

There is nothing though that fascist Germany could have done to make someone like FDR abandon the UK and sign a non aggression pact how would that ever happen this is FDR.

Even if US signed it would be unthinkable the US wouldn't still do lend lease ("it's the economy stupid") to the UK and USSR and that's all the soviets needed to win anyways the war was %100 lost after Kursk no D-Day required.

And it's not a "modern" take, it's pretty obvious even back in the day a country with a population alittle under half of the USSR picked a fight with the whole world

Every one of these "The Nazis could've won it they'd done ___" always hinges on the Germans or the allies doing something they never realistically would've done

[-]

captaincw_4010@reddit

Yeah, that's why my position is the Germans could never ever win under any realistic circumstances really. The US is never stopping lend lease and the USSR will never surrender

Unless you surrender, shooting someone in the back is perfectly valid.

Even I had my issues when I played that game as an early teen with shooting surrendering germans.

Anon might want to read up on why the "commies" were so pissed and detach himself from the clean wehrmacht myth.
