re: #108 Cato the Elder

Prove any of what? That we were exactly like or exactly as bad as the Soviets? Get real.

That we treated Central and South America as our fiefdom and that the boots in the face we served up felt just as bad to the ones chowing down on them as did Russian leather to Czechs, Poles or Uzbeks? There is plenty of evidence for that, including lots of survivors, but from your tone here I doubt you’d credit any of it. Do your own googling.

Soviets are credited with some for killing upwards of 100 Million people.

And if we only killed one million, or ten, or 17.69331, what then?

As I said, we made mistakes in South and Central America during the Cold War. I think we were and are a better country than the USSR ever was.
