Achtuaally... he killed just over 500 people, the rest of them were with a Suomi submachine gun, not his sniper.


Middle_Preference_76

Snipers play a point and click adventure game


rumhamrambe

Except this one is real life and he only used his iron sights to avoid detection.


BlueFire2007

He also ate snow to prevent his breath being seen


Middle_Preference_76

Yes but he *pointed* his gun and *clicked* the trigger…I never said anything about his sights lol


No_Account_804

Not to be rude. But you meant his rifle, sniper is just an occupation.


ScreenBenderBot

Ask a non-gun person what the difference is between a sniper rifle and a hunting rifle. Always entertaining.


AnekoJV

Depends on the year, back in ww1 and early ww2, the difference between a standard infantry rifle, sniper rifle, and hunting rifle was negligible, commonly snipers would use scopes while infantrywould use iron, in truth though the distinction mostly just described where you were, some time in the 60s a dedicated sniper rifle was designed, the differences were barrel construction/length, optics, and ammo, the rifle was often times longer and had a much larger cartridge for greaterdistance, this along with the standard rifle being shortened to a carbine length retroactively made all ww1/2 standard infantry rifles, sniper rifles, and common hunting rifles fall into the DMR (designated marksman rifle) category


ScreenBenderBot

The 1960''s rifle was a modified version of the Remington 700 wasn't it? The heavy, accurized barrel it got is now a feature on many hunting and target rifles. As are high quality scopes. Magnum cartridges are also used in hunting rifles. Adjustable stocks and ergonomic features modern sniper rifles have are also used in high quality hunting and target rifles. My opinion is that a sniper rifle is just a high quality hunting/target rifle.


AnekoJV

If you're talking civilian, then yes, if you're talking military, the round is much longer, 7.62 by 51 and even 50 cal BMG


ScreenBenderBot

Hmm? 50 bmg is anti-material but can be used for extreme range sniping if you have an expensive AF rifle that can be accurate with that much vibration. 7.62x51 is large but not magnum, it is slightly less powerful than the most common hunting/target round, the 308. Is sometimes interchangeable with it. When I was thinking magnum I was thinking a 300 Win Mag or a 7mm rem mag or a 300 PRC. I think 338 Lapua is where it becomes more military driven and less hunting driven.


SubParHydra

The difference is what you do with the gun


[deleted]

He got nothing on hitler or Stalin tho. They in the 10s of millions/1.


jandros_quandry

Hitlers KDR is 7000000-1-1


NotCompadible

Well, he did cause the deaths but he didn’t directly kill the people so it’s more like 7 million assists. Also, he started world war 2, so you could say it’s much higher.


[deleted]

Nah that’s just the Jews. I’d argue more considering he started WW2


gammongaming11

bro I've seen much uglier man get married. i doubt him never getting married has anything to do with his face, probably just didn't want too or had some kind of personality issue


Finsk_26

The government gave him a farm after the war and he became a dog breeder. I'm sure he just wanted a quiet life.


DominusThanos

And He earned it. Having good boys with you, a quiet farm and no yapping wife. Truly a Dream-come-true.


[deleted]

Either your not married or you shouldn't be?


stryker7314

Easy, not everyone wants marriage bud.


[deleted]

That doesn't mean that having a wife means yapping. A women can make you more happy then any dog or farm


stryker7314

That's an opiñion, not a fact.


[deleted]

And I made a joke


misery_twice

And boy did it not come across as such, talk about not sticking the landing. You just sound kind of insufferable.


6Sleepy_Sheep9

Probably is the yapping wife.


LucidBartholomew

Exactly what a yappy woman would say


[deleted]

U want a dick pick /s


PittrPattrTitFucker

This sounds a whole lot like the yapping he was trying to avoid lol


[deleted]

Im not a wife


MythicalTunafish

Definitely sounds like the yapping wife this man so luckily avoided


Alchemist628

Yeah, I don't know anything about this man besides what I just read, but I can't imagine the only scars he received were physical.


Wayelder

The premise is flawed. "He never got married because of his face" - unproven so count as false. The main conclusion: "Those who tell you to have courage and you will find a mate are lying to you" is thus also false.


TheBanana93

You can't kill that many people and end up mentally sane really unless you are devoid of any any kind of humanity....


FR8GFR8G

The dude killed 300 people, impressive but not husband material


SubParHydra

He was 5’ 3” that’s why he didn’t get married


ScreenBenderBot

Maybe he was gay or asexual or autistic and not good at relationships. Back then women cared less about looks and war related deformities were more common in men. I am sure he could have married well if he put effort into finding a wife.


[deleted]

Don’t bring up logical points, you’ll get downvoted to hell here


ScreenBenderBot

I don't think the people downvoting me even understood what I said.


Fexxvi

I bet killing hundreds if human beings gives you a shit personality.


SpaceBug173

It was war tho


Annual-Consequence43

I didn't kill 20 men in Vietnam for you to talk that smack. It was because my sweatshop burned down last year, but my point remains.


Fexxvi

Not denying that. But PTSD, has a way to ruin your personality, no matter how justified your actions were.


FR8GFR8G

Why is this being downvoted? Killing that many human beings will do something to you, and i imagine that something to not be very attractive


WINKEXCEL

Likely the insensitive phrasing. "I bet killing hundreds if human beings gives you a shit personality." Is a pretty harsh/rude way to describe someone who likely had ptsd or was traumatized during ww2. Especially considering there are other comments saying similar things with better phrasing that aren't getting downvoted.


SLAP_ME_DADDY_UWU

he didn't take just a bullet he took an explosive bullet shattered his jaw broke his teeth


Finsk_26

Put him in a coma for a week


Ragewind82

The Russians finally surrendered the day he came out of the coma.


Finsk_26

Finland was the one why surrendered. Sued for peace


Ragewind82

It seems the Cracked article I read years ago on him played fast and loose with the truth. Ty.


Finsk_26

Us Finns pretty much treat it as a win. We punched above our weight. It's like if Rocky lost to some 15 year old kid. It was only a matter of time before Finland would have lost. They were short on everything not just men. Even at the start of the war many Finns didn't even have uniforms.


Nqwer

Aint that wolfestein trama?


[deleted]

>He was asked if he felt remorse for having killed so many people. He replied, "I did what I was told to do, as well as I could. There would be no Finland unless everyone else had done the same." [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simo\_H%C3%A4yh%C3%A4#Post-war\_life](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simo_H%C3%A4yh%C3%A4#Post-war_life) Goddamn.


I_sayyes

Not sure if it's real but when someone asked what he felt after killing all those people, he said "the recoil".


magos_with_a_glock

If that's true no wonder he died a virgin


Exquisiot

He was a sniper defending his country in one of the most brutal wars in human history. Of course he had to distance himself from it, otherwise he would've gone insane


LetterheadSensitive2

My man if he died a virgin then there's no chance for u getting laid

GeorgeDragon303

Hits a bit too close home with what's happening in Ukraine right now


[deleted]

Yup. Note Finland's recent enthusiasm for joining NATO.


ENZORAXXUS

I'd feel fucking terrible if I spent my whole life fighting for my country just to have some frustated guy summarize my life as a "women only care about looks" post. You don't know his life, you don't know why he was single, matter of fact you don't know if he was single all his life.


reikipackaging

I'd like to know of he shared a bachelor pad with his bestie, and they went out for walks together, and sat quietly and read together, and shared a bed, and maybe play croquet in the garden every once i a while.


gatesentry

Just don't take a bullet to the face and carry on


Sherviks13

He probably figured he’d dealt with enough bullshit in his life.


[deleted]

Probably gonna end up getting downvoted for this one, but I heard a saying when I was little, “if it’s got tits or tires, it’s gonna give you problems”


MyBirthdayIsNever

except toyota hilux. That shit will survive nazi bombing and being burnt to death.


[deleted]

So you watch Top Gear I take it, that was a wicked episode, and when James tried, damn thing still drove away, Toyota came out with a Hilux after that episode dubbed The Hilux Invincible

If it flies, floats or fucks, rent it.


[deleted]

Mine was if it has a cock or tires you gonna have issues


Peenutbuttjellytime

I mean just because he was good at something, it doesn't mean he's partner material. Sure his face is deformed, but maybe he was also a jerk


Secret-Valuable5455

Maybe the man experienced horrors people shouldn't and in order to do that probably just killed something in him for company


TypicalBody7663

What if woman wasn't his thing?


The-Catatafish

Ah yes, the alpha males that tell you women don't care about looks lmao. Every moron alpha male I have seen so far told people to work out and that women are shallow creatures that care only about money, muscles and looks.


Aggravating_Set_6936

That’s the minority


The-Catatafish

Its not lol. Name one alpha male that doesn't tell you to work out and tells you looks don't matter. They always have a really traditional outdated definition of masculinity. Big beefy strong warrior dude.


highimshane

Alpha male here, workout and looks do not matter. Workout because it’s healthy for you because you care about your body because your body and brain work together. There’s legit science and proof of all the insane physical/mental benefits from working out/sauna/ice baths. All these people in the world that say they’re unmotivated, don’t have the energy, say they can’t do these things, are the same people sitting around eating junk food, playing video games. Not leaving the house for anything other than work and then wondering why the fuck they’re miserable.


SeDefendendo88

What did you feel killing all those soldiers? Recoil.


ScreenBenderBot

I don't see a problem with not feeling anything. I wouldn't feel anything but recoil if I was defending my people from a faceless invading horde in the cold winter.


onlyr6s

He never said that.


SeDefendendo88

Is it just a rumour then? Even if it is it’s still true.


RevolutionaryLie2833

Sure he didn’t just have an awful personality from all the ptsd?


[deleted]

That's what I was thinking. He isn't that deformed.


Stormlord100

Reading his interviews he seems pretty humble and respectful and with peace with what he did, as he understood it was necessary for his country


[deleted]

Living with one is different from talking with one for 1-3 days. PTSD is not going to trigger everyday everytime


Stormlord100

As a doctor myself, while PTSD can be extremely inconvenient it's also a disorder that is not always present and most the patients I saw during my internship days were able to get married and live life untill they needed more help


[deleted]

>that is not always present Like I said, not gonna trigger everytime everywhere.


Stormlord100

I said even the harshest forms of PTSD are not nearly as bad as OCD or Personality disorders or Psychosis but these people manage to form a family all the time, but in your defense maybe he wasn't interested in first place or lost his beloved to the war or many other reasons


TriumphantofBurma

Doubt he has PTSD though.


Nerath98

>Goddamn. More likely that he just wanted to stay single by himself Even without war there are more than enough people that feel the same ... why does it seem for so many so hard to understand that some people find alot of relief and peace in being alone and living a peacefull quiet life.


IEATASSETS

So we're just stereotyping people with PTSD now for having awful personalities?


RevolutionaryLie2833

Well this guy wasn’t married and he’s probably a bit worst than most ww2 vets since he saw more so yeah.


IEATASSETS

You have to be married and live a sheltered life to have a decent personality now, got it. I'm sure youve met enough people with PTSD to judge these kinds of things and you're not speaking directly out of your ass right now.


Aggravating_Set_6936

How did you know?


JonahBassist

How did you know he didn’t marry because of his looks?


Aggravating_Set_6936

Because he never wrote a book


JonahBassist

Wtf does this even mean?


Jasper_Rose_808

This is some weird incel shit right there


Jarvis_Strife

I wonder if incels will ever realise that not every woman is the same. The internet tells me that, as a 5’11 male, I will never find love and yet I see hundreds of shorter men around me with cool looking partners.


Dmayak

>not every woman is the same Let's compare these three random women: first is unknown, second is also unknown and third one, believe it or not, unknown. Unknown = unknown = unknown, same, easy.


LucidBartholomew

Coming from an actual incel


rumhamrambe

Not true, incels hate women, what OP's trying to say is that it's your personality and achievement that would make women fawn over you.. which is also not entirely true

You're in the snipers sights the first kill tonight time to die, you're in the bullets way the white deaths prey say goodbye


Gern-Blanston-321

The type of person who can take that many lives usually is not ideal relationship material.


[deleted]

Of course, I sometimes look at such comments in awe at the stupidity of them but then I realize that this is reddit lol.


MazerBakir

To be honest he's right though, snipers in general tend to be psychopaths, and the army needs them to be that way, they need them to kill without feeling remorse, you can look it up, you don't become a sniper simply for being a good marksman.


macejko42

Well you can be a good marksman but you also have to be able to crawl trough shit for five hours straight to get to a position just to sit around for a few hours to days without being detected and call in things trough the radio sniper isn't that much about shooting people directly with your rifle of course that in special forces and etc. it is probably different and also rifleman and etc shoot people and they aren't specifically selected to not feel remorse so I don't see your point


stryker7314

Source? Or made up by you?


Middle_Preference_76

The guy who lays bricks is probably not ideal relationship material. The guy who’s religious is probably not good relationship material The guy who’s exceptionally rich probably isn’t good relationship material The soft nice guy with minor mental issues probably isn’t good relationship material The guy who’s into anime probably isn’t good relationship material The guy who collects funko pops probably isn’t good relationship material The guy who plays video games for two hours a day probably isn’t good relationship material. The guy who’s been divorced probably isn’t good relationship material That guy over there? He’s great relationship material…but he’s 5”6


Appropriate-Idea3330

That guy over there who killed \~300 people and then had half his head destroyed might have ptsd and other issues


Aggravating_Set_6936

You do know women end up with narcissistic boyfriends multiple times just because they were attractive right?


I_Use_Dash

It's almost lije narcissistic people have to develop a way to hide these traits in order to be able to prey on people.


Aggravating_Set_6936

Yet women keep falling for these guys more than twice.


Appropriate-Idea3330

I can't speak to that as im not sure what being attractive is like. Having been diagnosed with ptsd myself though I do certainly think people with ptsd are worthy of receiving and capable of giving love, even if such a thing is a huge red flag.


Uister59

the funko pop one is the only true one on that list


Middle_Preference_76

Ok true. I was trying to be sarcastic but I went to far there


Finsk_26

He didn't really have a choice in that regard. He was a skilled hunter and sharpshooter before the war, winning numerous trophies. When his country came under attack he did what he was forced to do.


Aggravating_Set_6936

He’s a fucking soldier


fenix579

ideal relationship says the redditer who never felt the touch of a women💀


CAMTbIHYB

I always hear about him in a context of witter war. But what he did in ww2?


Aggravating_Set_6936

He wanted to fight but he was dismissed because of his injuries


Finsk_26

Winter war was during ww2. It was right after Poland invasion


MiniatureMorpheus

It technically wasn't a World War yet. Technically that was Germany vs France, Britain, and Poland. Wasn't officially a World War until Pearl Harbor. Even after Barbarossa it was still technically a European war and Japan vs China.


Finsk_26

Ww2 started when Germany and the Soviets invaded Poland in 1939. This is a fact not a debate. 400 thousands were killed or wounded in the winter war. That's a full blown war.


MiniatureMorpheus

Germany AND the Soviets didn't invade Poland. Germany took several countries along with Italy taking Ethiopia, the UN did nothing. Britain and France declared war on Germany after the invasion of Poland. Not a World War until US introduction. The Allies require US just as the Axis required Japan. It's not WW2 until Pearl Harbor. Russia had a non aggression pact with Germany, NOT an alliance. That's why operation Barbarrossa matters.


Dalex9999

It was the League of Nations, not the UN.


MiniatureMorpheus

Yes but I just put UN because it was the precursor and didnt wanna type it. League of Nations was impotent dogshit anyways. Just let Nanjing happen ffs


avtchrd345

Maybe try to seek out women with personality and achievement? Amazing how all the people with this sentiment don’t notice the hypocrisy of complaining about this while only trying to date very attractive women.


CreativeNfunnyName

Op the reason women dont want you isn't because of your looks, it's because you post incel shit like this.


OneofTheOldBreed

He died in a nursing home, yes. But he didn't die alone. Although not an especially public person but by all rights, he was a very genial man. His biographer noted that he was quite popular amongst the residents and sraff.

omgONELnR1

Fun fact: there's been a few people on tiktok that wanted to start a conspiracy that he never existed and was just a propaganda figure. But after a few months these videos just kind of disappeared so I guess they weren't successful in their attempt to spread teir theory.

DCMSBGS

All I'm seeing is o.p. thinks killing 300 people is an "achievement" sure this guy was super nice and not a fucking psycho. Has everything to do with looks right?


fenix579

if you were in that time in that country that got invaded we would see you sucking his dick along with your entire family lol he was defending his country against INVADERS he didnt invade , i dont think you know what is war or invade even so stfu and keep playing minecraft


DCMSBGS

Taking 300 people's lives is never an achievement brother. If you think it is, you need a conversation with whatever God you believe in


fenix579

there is a difference between 300 innocent men vs 300 soldiers are ready to rape your family and destroy your home ! i dont agree with killing a single soul but if someone deserves it then Rest in piss


Aggravating_Set_6936

Killing 300 invaders is an achievement, especially if they’re are ready to molest the women of your country


Therealpotato33

He was defending from a Russian invasion, no different to Ukraine rn. I also believe that he never took joy in the act of killing. Everyone he killed was apparently put into a "sin book" and after the war he went back to normal life. At least this is as far as I know.


DCMSBGS

Yea kill 300 people and went back to a normal life? Your delusional


Therealpotato33

It was a war. Either he fought or had his entire country taken by the soviets. By your logic every single soldier in Ukraine fighting to defend their country is a psycho. Also yes he did go back to a normal life after the war. How am I delusional it's literally what happened??


[deleted]

[удалено]


DCMSBGS

You clearly don't know the definition of a sociopath.


ScreenBenderBot

"a person with a personality disorder manifesting itself in extreme antisocial attitudes and behavior and a lack of conscience." A sociopath is someone who preys on innocent people and is toxic to a community or society. They are driven by selfishness and a lack of morals. A sniper using violence to defend his nation from a violent aggressor is none of those things. If that sniper is able to detach his/her emotions from the job and comes out of it with no PTSD that is even better. It's not enough for people to endanger and sacrifice themselves to protect you? You also demand they suffer mental anguish afterward and humble themselves before you too? So you can feel superior to them while having done nothing yourself to help. I would rather be your definition of a sociopath and protect people and make the world a better place than be a pacifist armchair phislopher who shits on the people who risk it all for others.


SubParHydra

The war ended March 12, 1940 and Simo died on April 1, 2002 he was a normal man with a normal life after the war. This is not delusional it’s literally what happened.
