If Stalin didn’t stop at Berlin America would have eaten shit for like a year until they built more nukes which they had a monopoly on at the time.

They would have used them.

I don’t see a path to victory there unless it’s acceptable to be losing like two entire cities a year (I honestly have no idea how many nukes could be built a year at that time, I say two because that’s how many were built for Japan) to a nuclear and bloodthirsty empire in its prime.

I know it’s a meme. But I see it said enough I wanted to hear what people actually thought on the matter memes aside.

Edit: lots of good takes and I’ve learned some stuff, thanks for all the responses.
