We took a defeat day attitude because it's the true attitude to have.
- Interesting that the Nazis have been revised as the good guys in that war. Europe seems to be now understanding: awsome pro nato nazis vs. aweful anti nato nazis.
  
  And you know this is not true. There is no issue with people celebrating it on the day that is typically celebrated as commemoration of the defeat of the Nazis. It is only the day that is specifically celebrated by the Russian state that is in question. Please stop lying.
  
  Both sides were bad. We were just stuck in the middle.
