You are conveniently omitting the fact that the Soviet Union had nearly identical programs running in parallel to the US.

But they weren't identical that's the whole point I'm making please actually read what I said. I know reading might be hard but you are just wasting your time typing nonsense because you seemingly can't grasp what I'm saying

In this case it’s cartoonishly obvious by the fact that your argument is so completely one-sided.

In the case of the Nazis and fascism reality was "cartoonishly onesided". Again as I said the USSR for its many faults was absolutely antifascist whereas the US/Europe were categorically not. Look into operation gladio. Look into the history of Ford and IBM with regards to the Nazis not just pre war but during the war. Look at the difference between operation Paperclip and Osoaviakhim.

If you think an accurate portrayal of reality is propaganda you really should do some introspection on what you believe, where you learned it etc. You have been embarrassingly wrong in basically every comment I've seen.

I hadn't known this about how the Soviets treated Nazis before and after the war. It's good to learn this and I really enjoy seeing your analysis and rebuttals.
