Enough about the bad, what was GOOD abot the Soviet Union?

117. The USSR was around much longer than Nazi Germany, too.

For 120 yrs it was deliberate US govt policy to kill Indians, or to drive them off their land, so they'd starve. As a result dozens of cultures were wiped out entirely. How many were killed? 100 million? 200 million? We will never know. But if the USSR was worse than Nazi Germany just by sheer numbers, then measuring by your own standards the USA is the worst of them all.

You may not like or condone what was done, but you - as an American- have benefited from those evil actions just like everyone else.

It's the same with the people of the Soviet Union.

What you fail to acknowledge is that there will be wars & economic hardship in nearly every century, in nearly every country. Every nation has to deal with the horrors in it's past. The difference is that while Nazi Germany was the responsibility of one man, and virtually died with him, the USSR and the USA are the result of several generations all working toward a common goal.
