"We'd all be speaking and ____ing nothing but _____" means "we would have been forced to follow the culture of this foreign nation and lose our own."

The act of forcing people to give up their language and culture for another one has an English word for it: Genocide.

HumanOnEarth was saying that if we had behaved throughout the 1940's the way we do now, we would have ended up victims of genocide. Nothing in his comment says that there is anything wrong with cabbages or sausages. They are not a problem to him at all. But losing his own cuisine and his own language would be problems for him.

I am surprised if you truly do not understand this and wrote your comment in a good faith.

HumanOnEarth was speaking up against fascism and what you did was to ridicule him. I hope you did so by accident.

again, your moaning about culture and language while millions where tortured and slaughtered.

They were tortured and slaughtered in order to remove their culture and language from the face of Earth.

Killing people is difficult. It was not done for fun. It was done in order to achieve a goal.

No, saying that that goal was monstrous is not "moaning". And it is extremely disrespectful of you towards the victims of genocides to reduce it to that.
