    US saved Germany in 1945

    Lol. 8 out of 10 nazi casualties were inflicted by the Soviets. That’s the conservative estimate

      The point of your rebuttal is a dumbed-down version of events. The US and the Soviets both had a part.

      Regardless, neither position changes the point of the post. I’d also hope the EU helps Russia when they fall (again).

        I mean, sure, but if you are saying that rebuttal is a dumbed-down version of events - what the hell is your comment that he is replying to? “US saved Germany” is way more dumbed down.

          Hey, that’s not fair! They also nuked 2 civilian cities just to prove their might. One of the biggest war crimes in history for which nobody was punished.

        Yes, they both had a part, and the USSR’s part was significantly more important. But I know that might get in the way of your American exceptionalism fantasy.

            Yes, this has been my main account for the last year. It’s cute that you noticed.

            What do your astute analysis skills tell you about Europe’s collective Stockholm Syndrome that the US “saved” them from the nazis?
