I hope ppl remember is that the US didn’t want to be in either world war. After that second round the US fundamentally changed. And that change wasn’t desired by the US. But they felt it needed to happen. No one wants another hitler. Stalin has already shown himself to be a mass murder. The massive problem is that those who were aggressive then took over. Using that reality and fear to do it. But one thing that holds is that for 4 years the US had the bomb alone and didn’t use that for territorial gain. Same can’t be said for Soviets. The US was tired of war and wanted peace and prosperity to return. From that era I can’t defend. But this series of events in my experience are not well reflected upon.
Belt Road Initiative of China, Stupid
It’s another means for china to have influence
China is far from Democratic
Countries that have fallen for belt and road have already or will regret it
Now tankie whataboutism…
