It's absolutely absurd that anyone unironically defends the stab in the back myth in current year. It doesn't matter that they were still on French soil, they had failed their last chance offensive in the spring and then lost at the battle of Amiens in august 1918. They were outnumbered and outgunned and troops were surrendering in droves. The generals knew they had lost. The fact that they were still on French territory when they surrendered is the grain of truth that allowed the bullshit to grow and spread with a veneer of authority. But it is just BS anon. There were still German troops in various occupied territories when they surrendered in WW2 also, I suppose that means they were stabbed in the back then as well?
