    WHAT ?
    Oh man, it is the number one “policeman” by far. Here’s an example :
    Here’s a longer list if you’re interested : https://github.com/dessalines/essays/blob/master/us_atrocities.md
    Here’s a source from the congress itself, even if it doesn’t include covert/unofficial operations it’s still quite lengthy : https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/details?prodcode=R42738
    I.d.k., what more proofs do you want ?

    And were you still talking about Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary in your last comment ? Because they weren’t in the u.s.s.r. but in a military/… alliance, like n.a.t.o., the e.u., or the c.i.s. Is it because their republics were different than ours ? It’d be another talk then.

        Why would it be b.s. to start with China ? You do know that they would have recovered Taiwan more than 70 years ago if it wasn’t for the american naval forces ?
        But whatever, i can’t force you to open your eyes, do what you consider to be just, and thanks for reading my comments.

            This list doesn’t only mention coups, but this source mentions 50.000 american soldiers on chinese soil, while that one talks about 100.000.
            (And the korean war was the main excuse to prevent them from recovering Taiwan, not the civil war)
