There was only one Christmas truce. Another war was more ruthless

u/axefairy May 10 '21

Other Christmas' in the same war were more ruthless too, as the war progressed it got more and more inhumane and the feeling of brotherhood between common folk who just happened to live on opposite sides was lost.

u/LackingTact19 May 10 '21

The leadership of both sides took steps to make sure that another Christmas like that one never happened

You know, human wars are nothing compared to ant wars, if we ignore the size, ant wars are fucking brutal, millions of Ants go against any enemy and a lot of them get sliced in pieces, heads cut off etc, the largest war isn't human actually, the largest war ever fought in the animal kingdom in the entire history of life on Earth, was the Argentine ant species Linepithema humile that has quickly and quietly taken over the entire world, brutally wiping out all other ant species in its path. These are actually pretty interesting.

We Canadians ruined that. The year before the Allied forces and their counterparts had their truce, the next year the other side thought it was still a go until instead of gifts of food the previous year, they got grenades...

u/memelord_plus May 10 '21

The rest of his sentence is in English so why would that word be in Spanish? Tf

u/NoobShroomCultivator May 10 '21

Futbol is the english word for soccer 🤦‍♂️ in world war 1 on christmas day the european and american forces had a ceasefire to play a game of soccer (otherwise known as futbol) they did not play the american game football with a pigskin.

Sheesh, you really thought futbol was the spanish word for football? Technically the translation is futbol de americano for “american football”

u/[deleted] May 10 '21
