we should have been allies with them after WWII

Nope we should have made the surrender or destroyed them after finishing up with Japan. Patton knew.

if we invaded russia, which is huge, we'd get our asses kicked and russia likely would have taken over USA. And why do that when they were our allies. Patton didn't understand logistics and not fighting stupid wars, he sat on his tush and sent young kids out to die, it's good they had him killed.

We(not including you Boris) would have just nuked them if they resisted, they would have had no chance either way. USA was way too strong, would have been easy work. Patton knew they were a real enemy and a huge threat which proved to be 100% correct and he was right to call for war against those bastards. You like the idea that Russia killed one of our top generals? Well fuck you traitor.

it's true we nuked japan partly as a warning to russia. But why them and not nuke russia like you say? A lot bigger place, were we going to nuke every major city, moscow, st petersberg, etc? They also had taken over many parts of east europe, nuke them too? Eventually we would have to nuke the world. Good thing guys like you weren't in charge, chicken hawks. Cooler heads prevailed. But at the same time, CIA, which had smuggled out Nazis, kept a cold war going against russia because they didn't want people rising up, they worked for the rich 1% that do nothing but own everything. You got tricked by years of anti ussr propaganda, similar to conservadems triked by muh russia propaganda today.

Russia didn't kill Patton btw it was our own guys, they made it look like an accident, Eisenhower tho ordered it. He was insane and was going to cause a hot war.

We could easily have handled the Russians in Europe without nukes, and with the help of Europeans too, lots of them didn't like the Russians. UK had a plan already to go against the Russians, French owed us one, Poles would love to kick some Russian ass. If we had to nuke Russian major cities than yeah that could have been done. Of course we would have been humane and gave them the surrender option like we did Japan. Biggest blunder to let Russia off the hook, many millions have needlessly suffered and died from allowing them to spread their communist garbage influence, now we have China and Russia with nukes, North Korea nuclearized, Iran on their way. WW3 which will end up killing probably billions will be the ultimate result of the West's moral and intellectual failure of not putting Russia under control immediately after Japan surrendered.

no we couldn't, hence why you then said we'd nuke them, then thought how absurd that was then you doubled back on handling them without nukes. UK had a plan? France owed us one? Both were too weak after the war to do much even with a plan which they did not have. Russia did commit crimes during time of cold war but so did Nazis, and so did USA with things like agent orange and torture. Best not to pander to emotions on it. Now we have china and Russia with nukes? You think that happened because we did not nuke them? If we did nuke all their major cities, that is a lot of nukes and the radioactive winds get into the sky and pollute our air as well. That is the main reason for not nuking everything to hell. We nuked two places in Japan. Other than that just tests. Cancer rates skyrocketed around the world. Not worth it to increase then a thousand fold just because you bought the anti communist fearmongering. You got hit with it since birth and hard every day. You're a low IQ kid with no knowledge of military tactics.

Need green new deal, single payer healthcare, tax the do nothing rich, end all illegal wars, encourage other countries like current far right oligarchy russia to do the same. Instead you want the opposite.
