    Americans can always be counted on to do the right thing…after they have exhausted all other possibilities

        Well they did join the Allies during WW2 did they not? The above quote was attributed to Churchill, what it means Americans eventually make a correct decision after trying a series of wrong decisions, some less effective, some foolish, counter-productive and dangerous.

          America only entered WWII to take a piece of the pie.

          It was pretty clear at that point that if the US didn’t enter, the USSR would take the win and have the chance to bring more Nazi-occupied territories into their union. Many US corporations were even collaborating with the Nazis, the US made carve outs to prevent factories in Nazi territories being bombed, as we already know the US profits immensely from war, and then after the war they shipped all the Nazi scientists and generals into high places in government. They weren’t exactly sworn enemies. Defeating the Nazis was not as high a priority as limiting the influence of the USSR. Their participation was always cynical, which might be why it seemed “counter-productive” at times.

            On Dec. 3 1941, the US as a whole was quite content supplying the allies with everything they needed materially. We had told the USSR to just make tanks, we would give them everything else, including the ammunition for said tanks. Letting the USSR take a win was certainly preferable to what happened after they took a loss at the end of WWI.

            I wonder what could have possibly happened on Dec. 4, 1941, that got the country to collectively say, “Fuck that. We aren’t sitting by anymore.”

    Not necessarily ‘lying’, but always ‘defending their own interests’. If your country’s interests align with them, that’s little more than a nice side effect. If not, well, that’s that.

      Wild how “defending their own interests” is considered a valid justification, when it basically means “I did it for my own benefit”.

      “By robbing a bank I’m merely defending my interest to be filthy rich - nothing wrong with that”

        No they’re saying ‘they will tell the truth by accident if it happens to be rgw thing they wanted you to believe for bullshit evil reasons anyway’.

        I’m not sure I agree, but it’s not exactly a pro-imperialist position.

      “Their own interests” whose interests, exactly? Who benefitted, and who paid the costs, for the wars in the Middle East? The only people who benefitted seem to be oil companies and war profiteers, while ordinary people (including my own family) paid for it in both money and blood.

      The interests of your own country’s bourgeoisie might align sometimes with those of the American bourgeoisie, but neither align with your people or the American people.
