There were 2 factors in my logic, not just kill ratio.

War is often a CTF game. No one captured the flag in Viet Nam (although we could have at any time, we just chose not to). So the winner by default goes to whoever has the most points. In WWII the Nazis had their flag captured by us, so lost the game no matter what the kill ratio was.

Times where America got rolled in PvP:
  • 1812
  • Grenada
  • Somalia
  • Civil War
  • Pearl Harbor
  • Vietnam
  • Space race pt. 1
  • 1929
Let me explain why these are losses:

1812: Washington D.C was burned to the ground, American's were shelled to death from naval ships and if it wasn't for other European countries attacking England Simultaneously we would've been re-introduced into the British Empire.

Grenada: Everything was a lie right down to the death toll, America basically stormed in and held leadership hostage after a small skirmish hardly a victory because the communists didn't even give a fuck about Grenada enough to assist it.

Somalia: These motherfuckers STILL roll on bass fishing boats on the ocean hijacking liners, the place is still Anarchy and the only good thing America did with Somalia is set the backdrop for "Black Hawk Down" we failed to stabilize and stop terrorism completely in that area.

Civil War: We were effectively pwning ourselves over the Missouri Compromise with our expansion past the Mississippi river, people got pissed tried to fight each other, eventually re-merged as a still racist, still exploitative, still federalist country

Pearl Harbor: Got caught AFK

Vietnam: Even if you killed 5x the numbers, they still zerged your ass out of every position, they still ambushed the U.S on a day to day basis, and even know there are thousands of American's who break down into tremors and vomit when they hear "popping" noises... Fact is U.S got raped.

Space Race: Didn't matter if you faked the moon landing, Russia knocked the U.S out by attempting shit that America couldn't do at the time thus inviting ex-Nazi scientists to help make it possible (lol)

1929: Economy rape, simple as that

Won't matter in about 15 years or so when the US is a conglomeration of city-states and the Chinese will be running everything.

[do you even know what PvP means? This has nothing to do with it]


Civil War: We were effectively pwning ourselves over the Missouri Compromise with our expansion past the Mississippi river, people got pissed tried to fight each other, eventually re-merged as a still racist, still exploitative, still federalist country

[Far less federalist, actually. Again, not sure what any of this has to do with PvP. There were 2 sides, 1 side won. That side was and is the US of A. If you claim there was only 1 side then it wasn't PvP, it was just P. And therefore is not relevant to the topic.]


Vietnam: Even if you killed 5x the numbers, they still zerged your ass out of every position, they still ambushed the U.S on a day to day basis, and even know there are thousands of American's who break down into tremors and vomit when they hear "popping" noises... Fact is U.S got raped.

[50k vs. 5million = 5x the numbers? Nice math skills. Actually the US won just about every single battle and skirmish, both in terms of holding territory and kill ratio. Soldiers not exposed to media reports thought we were winning the war. The Tet Offensive was a great military victory for the US, but commie lib Cronkite decided to call it a loss.]


Space Race: Didn't matter if you faked the moon landing, Russia knocked the U.S out by attempting shit that America couldn't do at the time thus inviting ex-Nazi scientists to help make it possible (lol)

[No clue how this relates to PvP]


1929: Economy rape, simple as that

[I've become convinced you don't know what PvP means.]
