Is America allied with Russia or Europe in this scenario? That's probably not what the parent comment meant, though.

Not really. I meant that America has triggered this war, like pretty much all wars on this planet since the end of the global anti fascist war. Thus, Europeans being good little servants, they will die for Washington.

Congratulations, USSR, young people have forgotten you entirely! /s

That said, it is still insultingly wrong to blame even America and the USSR together for starting 'all wars on the planet' since WWII.

To quote the great historians Chris Hughes and Roland Orzabal: "everybody wants to rule the world"

Honestly, even intra commie wars were also triggered by the US Empire, and for these, Soviets were extraordinary foolish, I will give you that. But I stand my ground; behind the vast majority of wars since WW2, there is the American architect.

We'll have to agree to disagree. Cheers.
