I didn’t realize being a US imperialist proxy and looting oil from Syrians was a “global south liberationary [not a word] cause”
Hint: if you are allied with the US you are wrong, with the singular exception of WW2
Once you compare the Kurd territory with the oil fields, things get a lot more interesting

There's been a times the US has stumbled into being on the right side, like the Portuguese Colonial Wars, but yea 99% of the time the Evil Empire is evil
They didn’t do that in Syria, the civil war they started, with jihadists they trained. It was a purposeful imperialist action to split the nation along ethnic lines and promote different factions and bleed the country white
Nah, the attack on Pearl Harbor was done 6 months after Operation Barbarossa started. The US did the absolute bare minimum and only did it at the last minute, so it's not the case of other countries being allied with the US but the US being allied with them.
Well it’s also that one of the main causes for WW1 and WW2 was Germany wanting to have what Britain had. I don’t mean the islands of the UK, I mean their globespanning empire of colonial domination. So necessarily, both world wars would orbit around the conflict of UK vs. Germany. Interimperialist fighting in both cases.
What was unique about WW2 was that there was a new wildcard, the USSR. The first proletarian non-imperialist superpower that created such fear and reaction in the bourgeois imperialists of Germany, UK and USA that the whole war went differently. Germany was allowed to metastasize by the other European powers in a hope it would collide with the USSR. Germany was overtaken by the blackest reaction and took on an anti-communist genocidal crusade, funded and backed by capitalists around the world to go Eastward.
The USA was dragged into WW2 on the side of the UK because of heavily shared capital interests between the two anglo nations. The USSR did whatever it needed to protect itself, stalling for as long as possible with ceasefires and then allying with whoever to repel the genocidal German invaders.
