IS 2 greatest tank of ww2

Incorrect. Time for semantics. It is a German unit that fought for the Greater German Empire. "Nazi Germany" is a modern naming convention used to distinguish the aforementioned nation from previous instances of itself. The argument that Germans fighting for the Greater German Empire were Nazis in comparison to Russians fighting for the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics is invalid.
Military Organizations share the same demonym as their countries. The soldiers of the Soviet Union were Soviet (not, say Bolshevik) and the soldiers of the Greater German Reich were German (not National Socialist).

I hate every, single, one of you.

I like the SS realism nuts, they've always been the most tightly wound and easy to troll players in all of RO 
What really annoys me is that I can't even join TWB 50 player server without downloading 100MB of ****ing useless SS skins.

Forgive me, Father, for second-guessing His ways, but how can He, who is our Lord and Savior, tolerate Nazis or even just those who share their imperialistic goals and serve them in war but allegedly don't share more inconvenient political notions in this shrine to His greatness?
Why does He not help dispose of them, like he did 70 years prior when last he demonstrated his wondrous powers?
Eloi, Eloi, Lama Sabachthani!
:IS2:, :IS2:, why have You forsaken me?

Unless I am very much taking your quote out of context, yes it makes me mad, for you to sit there and say that... Some people actually have relatives that fought for their country with no other choice, and to sit there and call them all Nazi's is pure bs!

He is not calling Nazis all of those who fought with no choice.
He is however calling Nazis to those who join a "SS unit" to roleplay them in a videogame and try to find real life justifications for it like: "We had relatives there who had no choice!"
You are much more history buffs than I am, but AFAIK, the SS was voluntary, and if it wasn't, then I don't know you, but If a regime "forced" my relatives to endure such BS, I wouldn't be proud of wearing those uniforms.

Fedorov,
While I understand what you are saying, you must also understand that an individual can be proud of the uniform he wore because he did what he thought without a doubt was right. He never did anything that was against his honor.
For instance the Reichswehr was the standing army for Germany between the wars. Many of these men were professional soldiers who swore to the constitution of Germany at the time. When Hitler took control they had no choice but to swear allegiance to Hitler. Others were drafted in 1939 and were practically at the front lines for the entire war.
They served as any soldier did, and that was fight for your friends and buddies. While others dishonored the uniform with acts of horror, others never went down that path and served honorable and when they see that uniform they dont think "Oh right, its a "nazi" uniform that represents the deaths of millions of innocent people"... It usual reminds them of the camaraderie, sacrifice, and sheer madness of it all, and that they survived it and can say without a doubt that they served with distinction and never dishonored the uniform and tradition of the German military, unlike the Nazi's who wanted to destroy the symbol of German military tradition.
War isn't black and white like so many think. It isn't hollywood bologna. If you're going to say that all the Germans in the military during ww2 were evil Nazis then go ahead and say that all Russians are Bolshevist murdering dogs.
