Do people legitimately not remember how we entered WWII?
We didn't "choose" a side: Japan attacked us so we declared war, resulting in an alliance-triggered chain reaction where the Axis powers all declared war on us in return.
Did the USSR attack Alaska? No? Okay then: now you understand why we "chose" to side with them and not wreck their shit. Also, you know who the President was at the time, right? You think FDR was gonna declare war on "good ol' Uncle Joe," with whom he regularly corresponded, for no goddamn reason? For what, the GULags? We didn't know about that yet, and FDR probably would have approved anyways.
Now, if you wanna argue we shouldn't have even been involved on the Western front at all, that's an argument that at least makes a modicum of sense.
Or that we should have gone to war after Khrushchev ordered the assassination of JFK, which apparently the US government knew this whole goddamn time and didn't tell us because then we would have demanded direct war with the USSR. (Almost like McCarthy had a point, amiright?)
Is it a Nazi's cultural norm to exterminate the Jews? Are we immoral for putting blame on them for that?

There's a reason whites are berated and targeted every day. We definitely chose the wrong side.
