Having you post the video to watch almost made up for reading the Redditor’s comments, so thank you for that.
SIR, MY PUBLIC EDUCATION HISTORY CLASS SAID WE WERE HEROES AFTER FORCING ME TO SAY THE PLEDGE OF ALLIEGANCE EVERY MORNING, HOW DARE YOU QUESTION DROPPING NUKES ON CIVILIANS, PARTICULARLY THE SECOND ONE WHERE JAPAN’S SURRENDER ALREADY WENT FROM INEVIETABLE TO UNDENIABLE AFTER THE FIRST. I AM A HERO BY VIRTUE OF BEING BORN IN AMERICA. A “FEW” HORRIFIC, CIVILIAN MASS MURDERS IS MY DEFINITION OF OBJECTIVELY GOOD.
No, he asked if they were objectively good in that war, which they weren’t even fucking close. At best they were a grey-moralist lesser of two evil, but the fact you conflate that with “good” is exactly why you’ll never comprehend any situation with any nuance. In your mind it’s always “WW2 USA GOOD GUYS SAVED WORLD” like some lead-poisoned brain damaged boomer desperately trying to live voraciously through low-rent nationalist propaganda. I’d say, yes, America was the lesser of two evils compared to Nazi Germany and Japan, and the fact that’s the closest you can get to “good” and the political parties you need to compare yourself to, to look better in comparison to someone, proves Infamousblt’s point.
The closest to “objectively good” America’s actions has been in a situation is “well, it’s not as bad as letting Nazi Germany take over all of Europe” and that’s not good, that’s horror.
This motherfucker thinks he’s less embarrassing than a Redditor. Hilarious. Anyhow, you can say “Thank You” for the Hexbear explaining your own social media platform to you, because, as always, they’ll need to explain the things that go on which you have no idea of their cause. At least this one you might actually accept as true.
