There's literally nothing ambiguous about it, and I agree. There is no power on Earth that has acted more responsibly than the United States in the role of being the greatest power.

They didn't call USSR "world's biggest prison" for no reason.

Solzhenitsyn is still a fuckhead, though.

The world is imperfect and you have to make trade-offs, so an ostensibly democratic state like the US, though flawed, is much more preferable to a totalitarian state like the Soviet Union.

Do you know who he is? He was cuck'd by the soviet union so he went on a countercucking campaign and was effectively uncucked when he witnessed the soviet union crumble and his life's dream accomplished.

Solzhenitsyn is a type of very annoying Russian intellectuals who see themselves as democratic and progressive but are little different from your average Russian Black-Hundreds in practice.

I suppose the Brits were the best even with the genocides before America took the reigns, so I guess it has more to do with the era. Brutality becomes less necessary as time goes on, generally speaking.

Nothing. Solzhenitsyn was a twat. That's all there is to it.


>>1339538
> so he went on a countercucking campaign
He wanted to avoid being shot for desertion during WWII. That was his Heroic Sacrfice for FREEDUMB: get several years of exile political prisoners were getting instead of actually going to war.

And then he proceeded to write some bullshit stories about Soviet Deathcamps. His life was literally saved in those "gulags": he got diagnozed with cancer early enough to get him cured. That was early 1950s, kids. How many prisons got regular medical checkups and sufficiently competent medicine. But what did he write about? He wrote about three soldiers executing two hundred prisoners by making a campfire and ordering prisoners to jump in there and burn to death. Why? Because Khruschev wanted to justify his anti-Stalinist purges with some bullshit stories about Evil Stalin.

This is how the Glorious Writer was born. When Khruschev got deposed, the poor Solzhenitsyn lost favor of the Party and USSR immediately became The Biggest Prison.

When that twat got kicked out of USSR, he started literally campaigning for nuking USSR off the face of the planet. The twat was supporting and promoting killing hundreds of millions of people, because he was no longer living there and there were money to be made on anti-Soviet propaganda.


Don't get me wrong: anyone can hate USSR. But Solzhenitsyn is a twat, and that is all there is to it.

All of that tripe is contradicted by the Wiki article on the great writer. The nonsense is too deep and varied to go into here; just read what the Wiki has to say.

Lol go fight for the kurds then mr ideologoy. Pretty good war if you'd ask me.

Honestly Britain was a much better policeman in its heyday than America was. Britain only fought sparingly with France outside of the continental theater in conflicts like the 7 years war. America sends troops, weapons, and bombshells into territory at first notice that our deterrence policy isn't working 100% right.

Britain managed her own colonial empire, but while doing so managed to shut down arabic slavery in the indian ocean. America shills out its labor needs to countries where there is no oversight on labor conditions. America will ruin a country just to make sure its neighbor can't project power into it.

Britain founded south Africa. America founded Liberia. Seeing a pattern here?

Hahaha, I hope you don't seriously believe this crap.

>Britain managed her own colonial empire, but while doing so managed to shut down arabic slavery in the indian ocean

Britain also conscripted millions of these countries inhabitants to fight and die in her wars
>Britain founded south Africa. America founded Liberia.
They're both pretty god awful

Wasn't the Soviet Union "ostensibly democratic" as well?

Not counting the genociding of course.

The United States is both the world's policeman and its jailer, the two are not mutually exclusive. They are associated.

Besides that, arabs need their totalitarian dictators, its either that or theocracy/endless wartorn hellholes like Lybia now or Afghanistan.
