    Tbf Italians mounted an actual resistance to their fascist government that killed their fascist leader, unlike the German resistance which was a wet fucking fart and hitler shot himself in a basement like a cuck. Hell they used to have one of the biggest communist parities in mainland Europe.

      Bulgarians, Yugoslavians and Romanians also toppled their pro-Axis goverments with aid from the Soviets.

        Albania, too, right? I always figured "obscure nobody who liberates the country "single handedly"" goes a long way to explain why Hoxha is a revered figure despite him being, by all measures, kind of weird with it

            A) Were I Hoxha, I would've arrived at the same conclusions as he did

            B) Seasoned WW2-Nazi-Fighter-Partisan vs. Doughiest White Boy seems like a rigged fight

      They did. But they then went on to kill, imprison or marginalize anyone who had been a member of the resistance from the beginning in order to promote the fascist turncoats, the heroes of the final days.

    Imagine trying to impress a Chinese guy with your national cuisine and picking spaghetti.

      funny thing is in Chinese the literal translation of spaghetti is "italian noodles" (yi da li mien)

        It sounded in the video like she was just saying "Italian" (yi ta li ein).

      Spaghetti isn't bad but I think every other cuisines noodle dishes I've tried blows it out the water

        Even other Italian noodle dishes blow it out of the water.

          Tbf I don't think there's really translations for all the different Italian pasta dishes, or if there is I don't think they're widely known

          What she said literally translates to "Italian noodles" which is understood as pasta or spaghetti
