Party foul. The point was ‘socialism bad because socialists kill people for opposing socialist dogma!!’
Showing the US spending 70 odd years ramming it up the arse of various countries for daring to consider /vote in a system that is not capitalism belies that position and acts as a counterpoint. Going ‘hurrbluur soviets’ adds nothing.
No the pointy, which I made, was socialism is evil because the people who attempt to install it purge their populations.
Thus the US’s imperialism abroad is an entirely unrelated issue to the point I was making. If you have evidence of mass purges for ideological reasons that would be relevant but also has never happened here.
Haha let’s go https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_empire

That’s just because you didn’t read the page, Soviet’s did the same as the US, they just collapsed a lot sooner.
If we can take a critique of historical socialists and do a “whatabout the US”, it’s fair to do a “whatabout the Soviets”.
