    why America is in the wrong in every single event

    They are though. Like I can’t think of an example of an international conflict after the WW2 where the US was not on Satan’s side. Even from my very limited knowledge, I can list about ten examples where they caused widespread destruction and destitution just to further the interests of their capitalist class. Most of these examples, like Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Korea, Vietnam are downright psychotic. I don’t know why being critical of the US is a controversial pain point for these people.

          Did the USA government also recruited Nazi scientists to conduct illegal/unethical experimentations on Indigenous First Nation children in Indian Residential fake schools that inspired the Nazi death camps and might still continue in secret as “atonement” for the Nazi scientist war crimes in the Nazi German Holocaust?

      They kinda supported the Kurds* when the Kurds helped fight ISIS**.

      *Does not apply to Kurds in Turkey or Kurds in Iraq once the US’s puppet gov’t restored order or all Kurds in Syria.

      **Which the US created via their post-saddam policies, and armed via the “moderate syrian rebels” most of whom joined or immediately surrendered to ISIS.
