    After Germany declared war on them? They didn’t defeat them out of good will, in fact, I’d say America and South Africa were the closest things to Nazi Germany outside of the Reich

      Is it good to beat the shit out of the school bully after he picks a fight with you so he learns to stop picking fights with people? I would say so.

          There’s a difference between being a good country and being a global force for good. In helping to defeat the Nazis, the U.S. was a global force for good regardless of what else they did, had done or will do. The same with Stalinist Russia.

        Should I remind you of the land the USA originally had and what they did to the people who lived in the lands they conquered?

          You can if you want to pretend that Russia didn’t do the same thing and that it somehow makes the comparison better for you!
