Apart from the superpowers, there were also significant political forces that were supporting democracy and social justice. On the other hand, both USA and USSR actively (and succesfully) fought them. I don't see any sense in calling either of the superpowers preferable in this context.
- solveit 4y agoThe point of the word "preferable", is that it means something different to the word "good".
- ethanbond 4y agoYes things could’ve been different and maybe better if you subtract huge amounts of reality (like the existence of rival empires)
- neonsunset 4y agoWhat makes you think democracy and social justice are compatible? What’s your definition on the latter?
