Are people calling them “stormtroopers” in reference to Star Wars. Because if that’s the case I would like the nearest human to just fucking kill me as soon as possible.
The Schutzstaffel, later named Strumstaffel (stormtroopers), were specialists trained for more rapid and intense forms of trench warfare in WWI. They were eventually reformed for WWII as a higher echelon branch of the German military, specifically the military wing of the Nazi party itself (meaning they weren't technically part of the German army, but potato, potato). They committed a higher than average number of war crimes during the war.
Most libs are uncreative and historically illiterate and so they only know how to compare things they don't like to Nazism.
Wtf kind of nonsense is this? The stormtroopers were the Sturmabteilung, aka the SA, aka the Brownshirts, aka Röhm's butt buddies. They were Nazi f-slurs fighting commie f-slurs in the streets.
Weirdly, you're both right -- the Sturmtruppen were first trench-warfare specialists in WW1 and originally had nothing to do with Nazis.
I have no idea what the Strumstaffel are though and to my knowledge the Stormtroopers or WW1 have no direct relation to the SA of WW2. As far as I know the Nazis just took the term for themselves.
Even more confusingly, a lot of their tactics were pioneered by a man named Rohr. So they were Rohr's butt buddies first. Isn't that weird?
So, okay, you're not both right, that guy is wrong as well as right. Don't mind me I'm just here to make things difficult. Also German words are stupid.
Probably because every "serious" history sub is filled with LARPHistorians that are only there to spread their bs and every mildly controversial thread gets y'alled quicker than you can say tittyfuck.
The SA was mostly made up of WW1 veterans, there's a direct link between them and the Sturmtruppen. German commies tried to deliver the country to the Soviets right as the first world war was ending, but they were put down by the Freikorps, government controlled brigades of WW1 soldiers. Hitler recruited the first base of the SA from these Freikorps, including people like Röhm and Himmler.
I believe Schutstaffel and Strumstaffel were both WWII era terms but I'm trying to remember this from a class I took a few years ago. And when I said "reformed" I probably should have said "reinvented" or something since they weren't the same (trench warfare being mostly obsolete by then anyways).
I used to think WW1 western front was boring and dreary trench warfare, the kind of shit you'd think from most movies till I read storm of steel. It has a description of a stormtrooper charge through Entente trenches, people going into battle frenzy and hurling grenades with both hands while running screaming into machine gun fire and somehow ending up unhurt, last stands in trenches and shit. That book alone made me do a 180 on my idea of the war, when the author describes the artillery fire making it so there was a constant rain of soil and grass through which you couldn't see I was fully erect.
It doesn't matter how many times you try to argue that you should be allowed to hangout in the middle school girl's swimming team changing room, they're never going to let you in.
Some femnazi was bitching about a pregnant woman getting teargassed. I asked them how teargas works and they insisted it was targeted at her specifically. Then I got banned from r/news because tasteless jokes are against the hidden rules.
If these federal agents served under a Bernie or Biden administration and were doing something like, say, enforcing a curfew or shutting down businesses because of coronavirus, all of the same ANTIFA clowns and protesters would be praising them.

Trump and his accomplices are so pleased with their authoritarian occupation of Portland, they're planning on expanding nationwide, starting with Chicago. If he's scared he won't win reelection, he's going to burn it all to the ground on his way out. If he actually wins, America will become unrecognizable, unsalvageable and irredeemable. Vote for your life on November 3.
This is going to get as bad as we allow Trump to make it. He has no brakes; WE are the brakes. Anyone who thinks this psychopath won't go full fascist to protect himself has never met a real psychopath. He's coming for you, he's coming for your family, and he still has another six months to escalate his attacks, even if Biden wins the election.
I'm one of the few people out there who can say they were tackled by a giant SWAT team guy fully decked in gear and armed to the teeth while coming out of the shower with only a towel wrapped around me only for the towel to come undone as he slammed into me after kicking down my door.
Lying on my back naked like that him on top of me screaming at me felt like the start to a gay porno ngl.
The best part was that in my confusion I 'said what the fuck is going on?' and the SWAT dude repeated 'what the fuck is going on' in like an exaggerated nasally nerd voice.
Yep. We need to get armed now while we still have that right.
Maybe they should've thought about that before fervently voting for anyone who promises to confiscate people's firearms. Like their nominee straight up said Beto 'hell yes we're going to take your guns' O'Rourke is going to be in charge of his gun policy.
Who started this shit? I remember when Bush Jr. was still around, Democrat supporters swore he would rig the election to keep himself in power forever. Same thing with Obama but with GOP. Was it a thing during Clinton's and Bush Sr.'s tenure?
I honestly don’t know what I’d do if he won. I was seriously considering moving to Canada the first time around.
Like these people genuinely don't understand just how incredibly difficult it is to immigrate to a majority white country that isn't America. There's no way the average redditor has the skills or finances that would compel Canada to accept their application.
These low skill redditors are trapped in America and we're never letting them escape.
A lot more people do it, sure, but there are a lot more people trying as well. Anecdotally, everyone I know who immigrated to US is white collar while I know a guy who went to Canada because he had family there and planned to work as a bouncer at the bar his cousin was working in.
Reminds me of my buddy's street gang, 'The Good Guys.'
They go onto local college campuses and beat the absolute shit out of limp-wristed progressive students. This one time they straight up raped the entire DSA student chapter during one of their meetings. Like all 62 of them were raped within the span of about 20 minutes.
You should've seen the twink in the wheelchair with his 'this is what a feminist looks like' t-shirt desperately trying to roll his way out of the building as the screams of his comrades being violated reverberated all around him (he didn't escape.) Was a fucking sexual massacre.
Anyway, they ended up getting the wrong building. They thought they were raping members of the Democratic Socialists of America but they ended up at the wrong DSA building- something like the Disabled Students in Academia or whatever instead.
But it's chill, because they're The Good Guys. That means that anyone they oppose- or anyone who opposes them- are by definition the Bad Guys.
I mean, it's in the fucking name. Just as those who oppose antifa are fascists because they're opposing anti-fascists, the same is true for The Good Guys. Like what do you think it means to be anti-Good Guy? It means you're a fucking Bad Guy.
mfw that weekend middle school camping trip where we we got to ride horses, shoot bows and arrows and raid the girls' cabin at 3AM was actually a full blown concentration camp experience
Fuck, I was just a like a Jew in Nazi Germany and I didn't even realize it.
