usa rigged ww1 settlement with nonsensical self-determination and then rugpulled everyone with the league of nations making said self-determination completely unenforceable
bs about woodrow wilson being idealistic is propaganda too
he was acting out of american interests and europe being engulfed in another apocalyptic war would ensure american dominance

What he did to Italy was one of the greatest crimes in history

Good! Shouldn't backstabbing Germany back in 1915.

Self-determination is not nonsensical, why should nations be stuck in fake, artificially propped-up via assimilation and oppression dungeon-of-nations-like empires that have no legitimacy because all political legitimacy comes from the masses. If some people want to assimilate and integrate, OK, I can understand, but assimilation by force is never justifiable, it is literally classsified as cultural genocide.

yep
they joined the war at the end just so they can enforce ''peace'' that was just set up for another war, leave germany in dominant hegemonic position and everyone else weakened
>>

You know if all leaders through history had to consider whether their actions would be "classified as genocide" in the post-ww2 order(the word 'genocide' was literally coined in the 1940's) humanity would have never advanced as it did.

>>18445172
self-determination is nonsense without enforcement because that contradicts it's premise
it's said that self-determination is in the interests of the people, but without enforcement it will just lead to endless conflicts paving the way to outside influence, see africa

It would've been better off. Fewer wars, more variety.

You live in your cushy 21st century lifestyle and you don't stop to consider that there's a reason why only warmongers survived in the past.

i often wonder what the US would do after WW2 if USSR wasn't in a position to overtake Europe
would it just leave Europe in ruins and let it be forever poor and broken, an appendage like south america?
