    Sorry. I thought we were dealing with getting stuff done now.

    I didn’t realize you wanted to talk about alternate history.

    My mistake.

      No, we are not dealing with alternative history. We are dealing with the history of what the west proceeded to do after the war ended. If you’re going to talk about how many people died then you have to include all the people that the west brutally massacred during the Cold War and continues to massacre today. Because your claim is that the world order that arose out of US participating in the war was a net positive. Let me know if you need me to use smaller words to help you understand this.

        That’s not relevant to getting things done now.

        The actual history is that Stalin wanted help form the US and took it. Anything else is alternate history.

        If you want to talk about getting power away from Trump, I’m interested. Otherwise, have a nice night.

          Once again, you made a claim that the less people died because the US participated in the war. And I simply pointed out that the world order that formed from that resulted in far greater human suffering. Nobody is talking about any alternative histories here. We are talking about the actual history of western depravities that followed in the wake of WW2. Let me know if that’s still unclear to you.
