Yes, I do believe a field marshal of the soviet union and one of the greatust military commanders of all time understood the particulars of the United States' involvement in WW2 better than you do, especially since you're belligerently persisting in error instead of being humble and admitting it. So you have two degrees. So what? That's fallacious, Andrew Wakefield had a doctorate. You should know better than to appeal to your degrees, there are people who are far more qualified than you are who think everything you're saying is idiotic—and they're right
You're 10-ply bud. The only person showing a gross lack of humility here is you. I'd go into depth on why what you said is stupid and is bad history, but smart words are wasted on deaf ears. I can tell you all the historical facts backed by primary sources all day, but I can't teach critical thinking. That lack is critical thinking is what got you here. But hey, go ahead and keep on using bigger words to shield against that fragile, threatened, intellect of yours. I'm sure it will make us agree with you more instead of actually citing sources or doing any attempt to explain why you think what you said made any sense. So far you argument is "Field Marshal Zhukov said otherwise once" and your source is "trust me", and hiding behind the opinions of unnamed peoples who are more accredited than me (therefore default right-er-er than me!!), along with copious, pitiful, abrasive ad hominen attacks (I know big words too!!).
Real talk. I don't know what you do for a living, but I recommend you stay in your lane and I'll stay in mine. The electrician shouldn't tell a plumber how to bend pipes. Whatever brainrot is making you sanctify a long dead Field Marshal of the USSR, one responsible for the extremely brutality on the civilians of East Germany and especially Berlin, you should do some serious introspection as to why. You glorifying this man shows you are severely detached from reality, let alone equipped to debate history.
Oh, and I'm under no pretense to be polite or humble when talking about history here. This isn't a history conference, its an anonymous forum. I can be as crass or rude as I want here. Frankly, I should've just told you to pound sand instead of writing all this out. Do me a favour, and trust me when I say that what you said and think is stupid as hell. Your homework is to use the boundless expanse of the educational internet to figure out why. I say this with sass yet genuine concern; educate yourself better. Your mind deserves better.
And you think you are qualified because you cite one source that was heavily biased?
