Becuase, of course, he took it out of context-"_Something we can all check to see if the quote is out of context."._ Because frankly I dont trust Mr Dibble, he is a lying sack of anarchist shit. Like here, it’s clear he likes to take things out of context to twist their meaning, exactly as he did here. > [@ASL\_v2.0](#): > > The idea that France and Russia are at fault for starting WWI Nope. Every one of those warmongering imperialist colonial states. All of them- They collectively started the war. That’s what Sleepwalkers makes clear. _They all share guilt_. Yes, Russia and France mobilized and declared first- that’s important to know since Tuchman was fooled by France into thinking Germany went first. But every one of them were itching for war, wanting war and looking for an excuse. France, Germany, AH, Russia, even GB. But no one nation has more fault than any others. They were all imperialistic warmongering powers. No excuse for Germany, but do note- King Leopold and the Belgian Congo. No ones hands were clean. > [@Dissonance](#): > > There was no option for mobilizing and not going to war in German plans, unlike French and Russian plans, for which mobilization didn’t involve an immediate attack, it only involved mobilization. They declared first. > [@Dissonance](#): > > Except **he** was the one who brought up T-34s and Khalkhin Gol, not me. Because I already knew there were no T-34s at Khalkhin Gol. Of course there weren’t. There were just crappy paper mache tanks. On both sides. Which you clearly didn’t know. Because you were ignorant. And of course, when I showed you were wrong, you go crying to the pit like a pathetic loser coward. Yeah, wargames - like every single nation used in both World wars. I never said I based my knowledge on A&A, you were telling us wargames are silly, stupid and useless, and deriding anyone who uses them. I guess you forgot about “College vs College played on a super computer” and all the rest.

That’s half of “over 1000”. You just love Soviet Russia and are willing to lie to make them look good. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-pit-drdeth/933971)._
