    The sooner we stop squabbling about our favorite nations

    We both do not deny that both countries are terrible so I nobody is squabbling about his favorite nations here but I am sorry but it is a fact that the USA did more damage to the world than Russia. The usa hold the title of the country who is involved in the biggest number of military coups , the title of who finance the biggest numbers of genocides and the title of the country who is involved in creating the biggest numbers of failed states.

      Russia is funding the undermining of democracies all over the west (and probably elsewhere too). I disagree that either is worse. They’re nation-states. Their entire goal is power.

      The US has more influence globally, so it has almost certainly done more harm, but not because it’s particularly worse. It’s only because it has the capability. Russia is managing to do as much harm as it can. They don’t give a shit about the people, let alone their people.
