For people who think Chamberlain was weak or that he "allowed" Hitler to take Czechoslovakia, I would really love to hear wtf you think Winston Churchill would have done in his place.
I'll remind you that when Hitler invaded Poland, Churchill was PM but wasn't quite able to stop tanks in Eastern Europe just by stomping his feet and jiggling his jowls.
The Chamberlain "lesson" is a reactionary meme about how diplomacy is worthless and it's as wrong as two left shoes.
Tell your history teachers they suck. Churchill didn't become PM until 10th of May 1940 when Poland was long gone and just as Germans were starting Fall Gelb - attack on France.
